New chair

I have spent some of the money I have earned, I usually save money since I don't know what to spend it on. But a chair, I did need a new one. My old chair was a chair from IKEA which cost about 500 SEK and was more than broken. It made noises and the seat had stopping pouring out. Since I spend a lot of time in front of my computer I decided that this time I would get a decent chair.

A good chair costs money, a lot of money. In Sweden we have a company called Kinnarps, they make chairs for large companies and they make good chairs. Very good chairs. The problem is that they are expensive, about 5'000 SEK and more. Especially if you want one with seat and back moving independently and many other neat features that makes your back go "AHHH!". After trying out a few chairs at their store in Stockholm I ordered one and today I received it. It cost a lot, but it was worth it, well worth it. My back hasn't felt this good for quite some time and I hope for it to last for at least ten years. I recommend Kinnarps, although I think that it was a little bit of trouble ordering, since I don't own a company. If you are looking for money well spent so that your back will survive all that coding, you do want a decent chair.

Now, I have to get back to studying. I have a lot to do, but at least now my back won't hurt after 8h sessions.

A lot of things...

To do that is. I have many things on my mind and especially on my to-do-list. This isn't really the best feeling in the world but at least it keeps my mind off feeling down because there is nothing to do. My main concern right now is my Japanese, since I only have learned two languages properly. Swedish and English that is, I have pretty much lost myself on how it feels to study languages. I was fluent in English back in eight grade and since then I have barely bothered about grammar, making new sentences and so on. Instead I have just been exposed to and used every day English. The problem is... I have grown to respect languages.

I respect them so deeply that I feel insecure when it comes to even making a single sentence. Now, this might seem like a good thing but at this stage in Japanese I should play and make tons of mistakes. I just have to use the darn thing and by doing that I will most likely learn more words, more grammar and in the end I might even be able to talk it without sounding like a complete fool. The only problem is, how do I convince myself that I can do this? How do I expose myself to more Japanese? I do seriously doubt that watching Anime is a good idea, it's a bit too fast. Perhaps reading? Manga? Books? I better ask my teacher, because I am not going to let myself get a bad grade or possibly fail a course because I am too set in my ways... One ought to be able to change I suppose.
