I took the JLPT Level 1 this time and I am ashamed to say that I am no where even close to passing. One might say 'What a shame' but I am not at all worried.

Leaving aside the outcome of JLPT test, there is something more interesting which I would like to share with you. I am pretty sure that most of you might chip in with a valuable comment or two .

So the regulation has been finally passed.
If you don't blog once a week, you will have to face deductions from your salary.
Pretty harsh, isn't it?  But what has to be done has to be done. As my colleague Matsuoka-san better known as Maa-kun always says-yaru shika nai.
