Learning Simple Japanese Language For Backpacker or Traveler

By -
Hi guys, it is been a long time for me to share about tips and trick for traveling. 
As you know guys, now I am in Japan. Yup, I am trying to get higher education in here. That's why I rarely post something here. 

Anyway, in this post I wanna share about "Japanese Language". 

What is that ? 
Why should we learn it ?
What the benefits of learning this language ?

Wait wait wait.....be calm guys. Let me give you explaination.

1. Do you know Japan ?

Japan is one of cultural country in the world. If we talk about Japan, what is on your imagine ? Samurai, kimono, sakura, geisha, shrine, small eyes people, anime and many more. As far as I know, Japanese people have strong nationalism such as just a few people who can speak and understand English or another language. I don't mean that is not good but I mean Japanese people appreciate their ancestor. Not only about language but also about relationship between human and nature, so wonderful guys if you see the mega city in Tokyo, the Shibuya crossing and many more. There are just a few symbols of moderization in Japan.

In my mind, the modern country is totally not related to culture and forgetting culture and nature but in Japan (in the middle of Tokyo City) you can find a huge shrine surrounded by mini jungle, called by Meiji Jinggu near Harajuku Station. I just can say WOW !

2. Minimalize get lost 
In fact, just a few people in Japan who understand English very well. So, learning a little bit Japanese language will help you for exploring Japan. For foreigner like me reading kanji is so difficult. But, we don't need remember too much kanji, for example direction sign in station, road, and etc.

3. Preventing bedwetting
Why ? First, let's imagine we are now in the remote area of Japan. In that place, we really wanna pee. But there is not any symbol in English, all japanese (kanji). For people also not any younger people, it is really hard to ask somebody. That's why Japanese language is usefull (not in this situation only).

Gagal Ujian S2 di Jepang (Part 3)

By -
Dapat kartu ujian, bukannya bikin lega justru malah tambah dag dig dug karena ujian interview sebentar lagi didepan mata. Meskipun seminggu sebelum ujian udah bikin ribet si Taka karena harus nulis furigana di research plan-ku kemarin. Wajar, kemampuan membaca kanji-ku sangat rendah sekali. Jadi,mau gak mau harus minta bantuan Taka (lagi). Bisa bayangin kan ngapalin research plan dengan bahasa Jepang itu ibarat ngapalin teori-teori sosiologi berikut dengan biography tokohnya. Oh my godness !!! Kok gak hapal-hapal ya ? Bahkan sampai H-3 juga belum hapal. Gawat nih ! Padahal udah coba untuk ngapalin sendiri sambil ngaca di depan cermin, udah coba juga simulasi bareng Taka & Takako, sempet berhasil sih tapi ilang lagi. Karena sudah hampir desperate gara-gara gak hafal, akhirnya coba tanya-tanya senior yang udah berhasil. Maksudnya sih, biar bisa dapat gambaran tentang pertanyaan apa aja yang biasanya dilontarkan para sensei. Betul kan, ternyata ada beberapa pertanyaan y

Visa ke Jepang (Part 4)

By -
Panas teriknya Jakarta bener-bener bikin sumpek. Berasa seperti di pantai dan susah bernafas. Tapi lihat Monas ada di depan mata itu malah bikin seger dan lupa deh sama panasnya Jakarta juga macetnya. By the way , ini kan hari keberangkatanku ke Jepang, tapi kenapa aku ada di Monas dan bukannya ada di bandara ? Hal yang paling important banget adalah.... “ Aku belum ambil VISA .” Parah abis kan aku ini, padahal 10 jam lagi lho aku harus udah ada di bandara. Again , bismillah aja. Kalau rejeki kan gak kemana. Ini nih yang kayak begini, aku memang cewek yang tipenya cuek abis. Mungkin lebih tepatnya selow abis. Padahal VISA belum tentu pasti lolos lho, masih ada kemungkinan VISA ditolak soalnya. Mumpung masih ada waktu, akhirnya muter-muter Monas dulu sama keluarga. Entah ketika itu tepatnya pukul jam berapa, aku harus langsung bergegas pergi ke kedutaan pakai Trans Jakarta bersama sang kekasih karena waktunya udah mepet. Kami lari kecil-kecil gitu menuju halte sambil ber
