Buy a cheap notebook (I recommend moleskine) and jot down any new vocabulary or phrases that you hear. For each entry, write down the new language, its meaning, and one or two examples of its usage. If you hear a word you know used in a new way, write it down again. If you take up a Japanese hobby you get three benefits for a Rocket Japanese Review. First, you get to take up an interesting and enjoyable hobby which is fun in itself. Second, you’ll find a great place to interact with Japanese natives and get plenty of speaking practice. Finally, you’ll get a source of motivation to study Japanese harder. You can take up anything from flower arranging (ikebana) to sword-fighting (kendo).

My daughter who wrorks part time at a post production house here in the area is going to a high school dance tonight with one of her best friends that happens to also be a young lady like herself. This is perfectly fine with me and I find nothing wrong with this scenario other than wondering why she does not have a real date to the dance. I carefully have the question and it seems that boys anf girls no longer plan on going to dances together on a routine basis. Rather, everyone meets at the dance and then dances with whomever they chose. A much better system if you ask me.

I was in the middle of showing a group of friends one of my new killer effects in card magic when this dog decided that it rather preferred that it be the center of attention. The dog started pushing everyones legs and barking quitely until one person took the time to notice what the dog was trying to do. At this point it was all over and the dog knew if it had one person’s attention then it could have everyone’s attention and started to bark loudly and really move between everyone’s legs. There was no calming this pup down and finally I had to set the cardtrick aside and just let the dog have it’s moment. I even jumped into the fray as now the dogs other pal had showed up and everything had turned into a giant wrestling match for the sole dog toy on the floor. What a day.

Pastels are usually painted on a vertical surface, ideally slanted slightly forward so that dust falls off the painting. Pastels are pure pigments ground into a paste using small amounts of gum binder. Pastel is a medium of unsuspected range and diversity. Pastel paintings hang in art galleries around the world. Pastel artist paintings should undergo archival framing and be put under glass to protect the artwork. Pastel requires a surface with some “tooth” for the pigment to stick to. Pastels from the major manufacturers are available in single sticks arranged in bins at stores as well as pre-packaged into sets.

Well, I don’t find much more relaxing in life than taking an hour or two on the weekends and practicing on my Alexandria Doumbek. There is just something about letting the mind go and letting my hands do all of the thinking that allows my to relax in a deeper way than if I just vegged out on the couch or something similar. Anytime the drum becomes an extension of yourself, I believe that you can allow the deeper parts of yourself to come more to the surface. Maybe it is just something primal, or maybe I’m just silly, but it’s fun none the less!

A few Spanish students are currently investigating with their professors opportunities for internships or volunteer work in Puerto Rico. This program includes Mexican history and culture classes, and Law Enforcement Spanish students are encouraged to attend various lectures, excursions and activities, as well as use Learn Spanish software. The following spring of the same school year, a group of North American students from the school that received the Spanish students are invited to make a reciprocal trip to Spain, enjoying the same opportunities and conditions. Spanish students are encouraged to take advantage of one of IU’s more than 60 study-abroad programs in 25 countries.

My little four year old son, Alex, has just been showing us all that he has a love for all things drumming. I’m sure most kids, if not all, at that age love to drum on anything and everything in sight. But, Alex is showing a bit more aptitude than most, I believe. Of course, both I and my wife are musically inclined, I’m a hand drummer and she is a pianist and a back up singer. So, for him to show off some of that natural talent by beating on my Alexandria Doumbek, is something we are very excited about!
