しこしょうかい - Introductions

Hi everyone!
This is the first time I’m writing in a blog, so I apologize for any misspellings, irrelevant topics and other misgivings that might arise.
My name’s Christian Cordeus (but please, call me Kei, or ケイ, it’s easier to remember) . I’m a first year student of Stockholms University in Sweden and my current major is Japanese in which I am attending the first semester. It’s my hope that I will be able to attain a Bachelor’s Degree in both it and English. I’m 21 years old, but since I’m living by myself (and therefore have to apply for a Student’s Loan to get by) I’d like to think I’m pretty self-reliant and focused on my goal. I sometimes become envious of those who can manage without a loan, but then again I’d rather not be in school longer than I have to.
As I mentioned I’m living by myself in a cozy little apartment on Södermalm, which I through
some divine intervention managed to get my hands on, and now bears the unmistake-
able interior decoration of a geek. I have a lot of book-cases and stuff spread around, and I don’t even sleep on a bed (my sofa’s been filling that function for about a year or so), but I still like it very much. Some day I might get around to take a few photos, please bear with me on that. I’ve been living in this place for roughly 2½ years, and to be able to afford it I’m also working a part-time job at a departmentstore. Still, I prefer living this close to school, especially since neither of my parents live where I could commute to school.
I started up this blog for mainly two reasons. First, I wanted to try having one for a while. I’m not expecting a lot of people to read it, but I’ve always wanted a diary, but I never liked the privacy of it. Second, I need to practice on my practical japanese. Which is mainly why parts of this blog will be in japanese. In the beginning I think I will be limiting myself to only a couple of lines of japanese. Write what I know (which means that I’ll refrain from using kanji I’m not familiar with, nor will I rely too much on auto-translative functions like babelfish) and try to incorporate as much of what’s being said in english into japanese.
As for the subject of the blog; it’ll mostly be around things I find interesting. Anime, manga, video games and the like are a given, but don’t be surprised if I end up heaving out some political opinions or random hobby-related splurges of witticism.
Anyway, I won’t keep you here longer than necessary, thanks for dropping by.
みなさん、おげんきですか?
これははじめのブログおききますよ。 ちょっとはすがしです。。。
僕はコ-デウスクリスチャンです。でも、ケイとよんでくださいね。
僕はストクホルムだいごくいんせいです、一年生です。 僕のせんもんはにほんご。すこしわかりますよ。
僕は二十一歳です。うちで一人あります、でもたのしですよ。もひそがし。 ひとりぐらしわすけ。。。たぶん。
僕のソファでねますよ、しんだいが¥ありません。たくさん本がありますよ。本が大好き。
まんがとアニメがすごいい。RPGとテレビゲ-ムも大好きです。
それから、僕のたんごはちょっとちいさいです。今日はおわれだ。とのしですよ。またあいますよ!
バイビ-
ケイ

Hello,
To the author of Death Note:
Congradulations on you’re seires! I love it!
In fact, I was inspired by all the the manga around me that I decided to make my own.
It will be called Deritsuku Mo-a Sakuyara.
It is set in the future year 9992, and technology is advancing fast. The Supreme of all of space [yes, ALL of space], Yarunara Mo-a Sakuyara, is funding a VERY expensive experiment: bringing people back to life. One dead person is chosen, and DNA reconstuction occurs, making Yarunara the father. The experiment is a unbelievably shocking success……
But problems soon arrive……..
If you can, tell me what you think. Thanks.
