Thread of True Honesty

Kevo Wrote:I think it's just a phase... eventually the desire to learn Japanese will be gone. Japanese is a terribly difficult language. I can barely understand any Japanese, and even with some knowledge in the characters it can be hard to make out the meaning of the entire sentence.
Interest dies when you're learning it for the wrong reasons (USUALLY ANIME, MANGA, & VIDEOGAMES).
My interest nearly faded away, but luckily, it came springing back to life again.
Japanese isn't extremely difficult in my opinion. At least it is much more regular and structured than English. I'm also being realistic in my learning, knowing that it will take many years to obtain a native-like proficiency. I already had an article in my blog about this, so, yeah...
Truth:
I'm an optimistic realist with low-expectations. I'm also a perfectionist (that does not necessarily mean I'm well organized).
I'm optimistic because I am, but I keep low-expectations. I do that to keep myself from being disappointed if something doesn't fall through. and it works.
My theory is "Because [he] keep(s) low expectations, [he] is immune to disappointment"

I'm a realist in that I've told just about every body I know in a relationship that I highly doubt it's going to last (I'm in highschool). They always so "You're wrong! Were in love!". Couple moths later there is a big fat "I told you so."

I like tasks that I'm doing to be perfect. Since organization to me is a passive task, I don't really care for it. Active tasks only. When I', drawing a straight line I could be there for 1 minute getting one (consider that most people look and trace the ruler, I must look and look). Japanese is applying to this. I want to become as proficient as possible, but, my other traits play into this, which may be better, because anything I try to set goals for I get tired of quickly unless there is a long-term effect of completing/not completing it.

On a side note, I am very observant (of people and some general things) and I overthink situations. The previous is a new trait because when I was younger I would make posts without much thought. Now I rarely post anything without thought. I get ideas for (mainly polling) threads everyday, but there is a 1% chance I might actually make it.
