JAPN411 meeting 2

Wow, it's only the second class and attrition is 40% already. Yoshino is gone as well. In a way attrition is good for me. The smaller class, the more attention we get from Mrs. Bomberger. The downside is, the class levelled up. Most are fresh from the previous 300 level class and know the grammar that I forgot long ago.

BTW, we have a new guy, Nicholas (?), who lived in Japan for 10 years. Like the Korean girl, he's obviously trying to fulfill the foreign language requirements (instead of exam), and probably get some useful units too.

Names continue to settle at their leisurely pace. For example, I worked in a pair with Christian (it was with Madelene last class).

We're starting on Nakama ch.8, honorific and humble forms.
