Holiday Plans *Verity*

Hello!

I hope you aren't too busy at work!

I am on holiday until April, so I would like to tell you about my holiday plans.  

 

Firstly, I plan to study a lot over the holidays- I'm not lying!

I have to write my thesis in Japanese,

so I'm going to study reading and writing Japanese a lot.

I'm also going to review lots of Chinese characters.

So far, I can read and write about 1,900, but I always forget them.

Remembering Chinese characters is hard!

Secondly, I'm going to study more about Japanese music.

Recently, I've become interested in Japanese court music (gagaku),

so I want to learn more about it.

Also, I will be taking gagaku classes at my school from April,

so I need to prepare for the classes.

Finally, if I have the chance, I'd like to go to Busan in Korea.

My friend from England will be teaching English in Busan from March,

so I'd like to see him. Also, I have many Korean friends who I would also like to visit.

It would be nice to eat lots of yakiniku with my friends in Korea!

Anyway, I hope I get the chance to do all these things!

See you soon!
