Colloquially speaking

I LOVE learning new words and phrases. So, I simply write this blog by using new terms I learned in past few days.

I love working at the MTC. My coworkers, whom I see everyday, speak both fluent English and Japanese and plus. When I am around them, I do not have to be on my toes or do not have to bring a game. When I mean by that is we all can make jokes using both languages and understand completely. So, no body does not feel "it's all Greek to me" or "チンプンカンプン."

Since I did not pass the NCTRC exam this Monday, my new goal is to make a study plan so I can effectively become an expert of preparing the exam. Any advice?

Lastly, I really like this picture thanks to my dear friends, Sarah (camera) and Becky (hair/makeup). They are awesome. And what makes this picture more valuable to me is my husband's cute twitchy smile.
