1945 Joyo Kanji

One thousand, nine hundred, and forty five.
This is the number of Kanji an average Japanese highschooler knows.
This is the number of Kanji officially limited to normal Japanese printing, such as newspapers.
This is the number of Kanji you need to know to be acceptably literate in Japan.
They don't look so tough.
Sigh...
Well, its time for one of those "Super Sean Great Time Consuming Crazy Projects"! (copyright)
I read somewhere that it is recomended to have a flash card for each Kanji, having 20 sets of 100 flash cards, and reviewing one set regularily. Right now I have about 30 done. Only 1915 to go.
Of course, I can be cheap and buy them. If cheap is the word. Freakin' expensive. I'd rather make my own and learn as I make them.
I will feel sooo good when I hit the 1000 mark. That will be when I know I can finish them. I'll try making 100 a day and see how that goes.

I discovered a program called Wakan. It works really good, and translates between English, Japanese, and Chinese. Great Kanji lookup too.
Japanese students can also check out JWPce, a Word Processor that types in English and Japanese, and has a built in Dictionary and Kanji lookup.

On a final note, I messed up dinner today. I was supposed to cook 600 grams of pasta and messed it all up and burned the pan. Everyone I was cooking for got angry and I felt really bad... Danny saved some of it by frying it, but the fact still remained that I failed...
I have GOT to learn how to cook.
