Addendum

I stole John Greenawalt's blog entry title for this post, but I do have an addendum to my previous blog entry (also, addendum is the Latin neuter gerund form that translates as "that which must be added"). Technically it's now Friday, and the previous post was from Thursday, so it doesn't quite count as a double post aka Thanh has too much free time and needs to get off the internet.

Anyway, I'm also blogging on the YPMBAsia site with the all the other wonderful Members of who will be in Asia this summer. Jackie, Chris, Tory, and I were discussing it several weeks ago at the End-of-the-Year Squidquet and Jackie was going to start it up. Sadly, she will no longer be joining us overseas so she passed on the task of setting it up to me, and tentatively we have:

JAPAN: John Greenawalt, Elliot, Ming, Colin, Thanh
CHINA: Chris Young, Tory, Tasia, Brittany, Ashley, Ashok (a different Ashok from the one I generally mention here, who's studying Japanese w/ me )
MONGOLIA: John Ela
KOREA: Jae

Being as that I'm somewhat long-winded in my blog posts, I'm trying to include more detailed program-specific (or Japanese study related) descriptions on here and the shorter (and possibly less politically correct) details on the other blog. I promise to be tons of fun here too, even if I may go into detailed explanations about JR passes, etc, and I'll keep the content of each blog unique so I don't repeat myself. Therefore, if you have an overwhelming fascination w/ every minute detail of my life, feel free to read both blogs. If I come across something so overwhelmingly exciting and wonderful it has to be shared w/ everybody, I'll post it on YPMBAsia and post a link to it here.

While I'm on the subject, I did just encounter some rather amusing entries in my electronic dictionary: http://ypmbasia.blogspot.com/2009/06/fail.html.

Enough blogging for one night. Back to figuring out how to use this dictionary.
