1st Japanese Entry...
みんなこんにちは。今日はいい天気ですね。。。I think this entry already looks like it's going to be very "つまらない”。I'm very nervous because this is my first "free writing" that I'll do using Japanese.
今は午後五時です。今朝に日本語のverbalテストがありました。verbalテストはとてもやさしかったです。for the verbalテスト、私は私のクラスメートとスキットをしました。吉田先生はうれしかったです。私と私のクラスメートはとても元気でしたから。
私もうれしかったです。Not because the skit went well, でも私の夏のクラスが金曜日に終いますから。私はちょっとかなしです。I will miss my class and most of all 吉田先生。吉田先生は本当ちいさいとかわいい先生！

Whew, I feel like I rambled and wrote a lot of gibberish to accommodate for my poor Japanese. It's funny how although getting a good grade in the class is easy, actually using the language is hard...
I was wondering... If I don't know the kanji for a certain word but know how to write it in hiragana, is it perfectly fine to do so until I learn it?

since Im not a native speaker i dont think im qualified to do any corrections.Your post had some interesting content (since i didnt take japanese in a class) it really made me think of what i missed. And yea the classroom is about getting good grades not necessarily being able to speak the language well.Japanese people are fine with you writing hiragana if you dont know the kanji. I do it very often and sometimes they leave out the kanji on purpose because of a nuance they want to convey, just be sure that you established the context so that they know what your talking about.
