Welcome back !!!
Dear Friends!
Sorry for that loooooong silence. Indeed it seemed that it would never end, but here i am, back to my blogging ways and back with so much more knowledge to share.
Well, let me inform you that i got through the first year of my masters, and am a second year student of M.A., the seniormost student of our center. That is truly unnecessary information, but that is how the system over here works.
My interpretation assignments have taken me to places......in fact, only one, which was Thailand. I was assisting two stalwarts in the field of Japanese Interpretation - Dr. Prem Motwani and Ashok Chawla. I can just say, it felt like little Sachin playing under the watchful eyes of Kapil Dev and Dilip Vengsarkar. (You can have a hearty laugh at this :-))))))
Anyways, so that is the past and the present stares me in the face. We have our exams coming up on this Saturday, interpretation to start with. And on Monday we have the remaining papers, namely, Modern Japanese Usage and Selected Texts. These include writing an essay, precis writing, letter writing, japanese proverbs and four-lettered compounds, and two literary texts, "Hashire Meros" by Dazai Osamu, and "Yume Juuya" by Natsume Souseki.
At the same time, there is going to be a seminar on Japanese Literature in Delhi University where i'll be presenting a paper on Children's Literature in Japan, focusing on the Anti-War Literature. Pretty many things lined up.
I hope that now as i have broadband internet in the room itself, blogging would become easier, and i would be more regular.
Really looking forward to your comments.
