My name is Kimberly or Kim for short. I live in North Florida for the time being. I am currently getting a group of like minded individuals together to ride horses across the country to raise awareness for several non-profits. I will basically be a billboard on horseback. There is a lot that goes into such adventures. I am on Italki because I wanted to learn Japanese. I have members of my family that are related by marriage that are from Japan. I also have friends that are still living in Japan and I would like to be able to visit them. In the process of finding ways to practice my listening skills I started researching music genres I like that were in Japanese. Which lead to an entire goldmine of Japanese, Korean and Chinese music that I fell in love with. Then I tried finding Television shows and fell in love with K dramas. Now I am here because I need to learn both Korean and Japanese for the sake of my viewing habits.

    When I was growing up we had a fun rhyme for "ain't" Don't say ain't cause your mother will faint, your dog will die, your father will cry, and you will fall in a bucket of paint. It is among the worst poetry in history, but it has stuck with me for over 30 years. 😂

    Positive implies that you have supporting proof it will happen. Believe is faith. No proof, just faith in something. In this case belief in an outcome.

    Does Italki still have it set up where I can make friends with other students? Lessons are great but 2 people laughing through the roadblocks of language barriers is also a great tool. They layout of this website has completely changed in the time I have been gone.

    Today, I will tell you about my favorite film. It is "To kill a mockingbird". It is an American drama film. It was directed by Robert Muligan and shown in 1962. The film is based on the novel written by Harper Lee. It received many positive reviews from critics and was a box-office success, earning more than 10 times its budget. It was nominated for eight and won three Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Actor and Best Adapted Screenplay.
    The film's young protagonists, Jean Louise(scout) and her brother Jeremy(jem) , live in Maycomb, Alabama during the early 1930's. They spend their days playing games and trying to meet a person called Boo Radley. Their widowed father, Atticus, is a local lawyer that strongly believes that all people are to be treated fairly. He is a defense lawyer for Tom Robinson - a poor-looking black man that has been accused of raping a white girl. This girl had repeatedly tried to hook him up with him but never succeeded. After he was convicted, he escaped and was shot by police.
    I think the success of the film is due to the plot. It is attractive, interesting and intelligent. Robert Muligan is also very fortunate to have an excellent cast. They may not have been the best in their career field but they are all excellent when they perform together in this film. 
    After watching the film, there were many things to think about. How justice should be practiced, that everyone should fight for their rights, and we should be there for each other.
    I think you should watch "To kill a Mockingbird". You will not regret watching it.

    Teaching a language on accident It happens. You become so single minded about something that other people start noticing. 
    I have been studying Japanese on my own. One of the ways I do this is by reciting vocabulary lists while I work. 
    One day a co-worker said something to me in Japanese. When I asked him how long he has been studying the language, he said he wasn't. He had learned it from me. 
    Apparently I talk to myself when I study. Has anyone else had an experience like mine?

    They are interchangeable. both words are used to define each other. They both mean fault, imperfection, etc. Flaw is a synonym for defect. Defect is a synonym for flaw. Look up Synonymous.

    "Where people end up in life" is definitely one of those phrases that can be confusing. There are several ways to look at it. In this case it is delving into the outcome of ones life having been determined by the individuals actions and choices. Example: If you dedicate your life to your career over family then you may end up alone in life. Your destination is decided by the path you choose.
