hello! yoshi

I just figured this out today. When I talk to a person who has an asian accent, I speak as if I had an asian accent. I know it’s weird but it’s true. I caught myself doing this today when I went to the Korean store to get some food. The lady there asked me how long I’ve lived in the area and I responded with a total asian accent. I thought it was pretty funny.

Of course, this doesn’t happen with my mom. When I talk to her it’s more like JapEnglish (for those of you who don’t know what this is, it’s talking with some words Japanese and most words in English), but Meesh told me when I was talking to my aunt from Japan, I spoke totally differently. Pretty weird!

Does anyone out there notice the same things? I know when I sometimes talk to my Jersey friends, I get the Jersey accent going on.

So it’s coming up to the end of “season” for the current Japanese dorama (or Drama). I don’t watch all the dorama. I mean there are quite a few running, but I do try to watch dorama that have actors and actresses I like such as Ueto Aya, Fukuyama Masaharu, and Shibasaki Kou. And yes, I will watch dorama with them in it even if it sucks. (most of the time anyways.)
