1 Thing about my Japanese learning
I was pleasantly surprised to find that I began to like Japanese and I am eager to learn it very well. I have been stubbornly thinking that Japanese sounds so rude and angry since I hearded what Japanese people said in Chinese anti-Japanese TV series. And I thought it was an ugly language all the time, at least I didn't like it. Therefore, I had no interest in my Japanese classes and I rejected it from the bottom of the heart.
However, my thoughts are changing now. Recently, I have been being crazy about Japanese animation. I have finished Slam Dunk which is one of my favourite animes. Several days ago, I watched One Piece, one of the most popular anime in Japans. But soon I found that I didn't have enough enthusiasm for it, so I turned to another anime, Naruto. I discovered that I love it very much and I can't help watiching it. During these times, I found Japanese is actually not as ugly as I imagined before; on the contrary, it sounds good. I also learned some Japanese from it. Naruto stimulated my interest to learn Japnese and change my bias to Japanese.
Now, I am determined to learn Japanese every day and listen to my Japanese classes carefully. Of course, I will continue to verb_ my journey about Naruto. haha!
'Something' is just 'some thing'. When counting things, say 'one thing'. There are other words that should be two like 'nothing' and 'someone'.
'I have been thinking... when I heard...' This changes the tense: it should be 'I have been thinking... since I heard' or 'I thought... when I heard', depending on what tense you want. I changed 'is' to 'was', 'turn' to 'turned' and "don't" to "didn't" for the same reason.
"...a series which was about anti-Japan". 'Anti-Japan' is not a word, only the adjective, 'anti-Japanese', is. Since it's an adjective, it can't be used like that. You can say something like '...a series which was about anti-Japanese noun_', but since you're describing the series itself it's best to just say 'an anti-Japanese series'.
It's unnecessary, but not wrong, to repeat the pronoun in sentences like 'I verb ... and I verb_'.
For some reason, 'thoughts' is almost always plural when giving your opinion.
'I found actually Japenese is....'. The word order should be 'I actually found Japanese is...' or 'I found Japanese is actually...'. You can put 'actually' at the very beginning of the sentence as well, but that would change the meaning (you'd do that to correct someone who wrong).
'Japanese', as the language, is uncountable. So you'd say 'I learned some Japenese'. You could say 'several' if you used Japanese as an adjective in sentences like 'I learned several Japanese words/phrases etc'.
