j-rockin'
i've recently discovered the radio function on my iTunes at work, and have taken to tuning it to the japan-a-radio station or arabic music. if i'm trying to work and concentrate on something, it's always a better plan not to have words i can sing along to going through my head while i sing along. otherwise i end up putting inappropriate phrases into important company documents. really, my clients don't need to think i want to rock them all night long.
there are still distractions to both stations, though. i end up dancing around in my chair with the arabic one, with people thinking i'm having some sort of seizure as i try to perfect the arabic shoulder drop... on the japan hand, i'll be listening and some word or phrase will pop out to me that breaks my concentration. it will be like blah blah blahbity sucka chumps angel blah blah blah... what?? did they just say what i think they did? at the very least, i'm hoping that the exposure to all the j-words will improve my japanese somehow... i hope so, because i seem to be slipping judging by the show of no-love i've been getting lately when i roll out my j-language skills.
current mood: maybe i DO want to rock you all night long
