basic communication in japanese course

hajime mashite, ema-desu..

yeah, finally i was accepted into attending this course from 14-18 january 2013. i've been applying for it since 2010, huhu.. it's like one of my dream come true! this course is organized by INTAN and INTENGAH is responsible for all the language course. other language courses that are offered include english, mandarin, cantonese and arabic. i think if i managed to attend all the japanese course offered, i want to go for arabic next. this japanese course has four steps and this basic communication is the first step.

essential needs

we have about 30 students in class and altogether three teachers, tan-sensei, loh-sensei and lai-sensei. first, we learned the pronounciation and basic greetings from loh-sensei. than tan-sensei took over the class with continuation from basic greetings. they also taught us about numbers. lai-sensei taught us a bit of everything. it was fun to learn a new language especially the language you are interested in. in my case, japanese and spanish! oh, lai-sensei also taught us origami. we learned to fold crane and sweet box. but, i have a picture only for the cranes.

the colourful cranes

after three days of class, we were divided into groups of three to do some role play act. we have to come out with a 3-5 minutes scene by including all the things that we have learned. tan-sensei recorded all of our acts seperately and we got to see them all together. it was fun and a little bit embarassing at the same time watching our own act. oh, here a picture with all of us together.

btw, i took these five days of course to get a revenge on my attire! since, i have to wear uniform to work, i took the chance if these five days to wear the 'baju kurung' i haven't got the chance to wear. i usually only wear 'baju kurung' when attending weddings, kenduri and such. i have to admit that i have a lot of 'baju kurung' collection since my size haven't change much these few years, alhamdulillah. every raya, i will have at least one made or bought. and below is the result of my 'baju kurung' revenge, hehe..
