Task

I wasn't a huge fan of the task thing we did, but it's mainly because I just don't like working in groups.

I do, however, think it was a good exercise, because what it did was force us to come up with dialogue from scratch, which is a good way to figure out if we really know how to say what we'll want to say in Japanese.

One thing I'm concerned about is establishing my personality to whoever I'm speaking to in Japanese. The dialogues in the book are good for demonstrating the grammar, but they don't seem natural to me. I think recreating our own scenarios is important because we know ourselves and how we are most likely to react in a situation.
