    Well, with the benefit of the clue you gave me...

    Exams and divine punishment

    Tomorrow is my first exam.
    It may be my first and my last! (or: It may kill me? - wasn't sure about this line)
    Tomorrow!
    It's like a divine punishment. The exam.
    It's scary.
    "(~_~)"
    So...
    I'm ?talking/writing? in Japanese.
    Why?
    Am I scaring you?
    "(;_;)"

  2. I suspect my japanese was very bad, and considering that and how close you guys were I think you can both get a gold star! *

    Anyway here's what it should say, as long as I haven't messed up my japanese too much:

    Exams and Divine Punishment

    Tomorrow I have my first exam.
    My first, final exam!
    Tomorrow!
    It's like a divine punishment, the exam.
    It's frightening.

    But...
    I'm speaking japanese.
    Why?
    Is it that scary?
    [insert second emoticon here]

    Notes:
    I used saisho and saigo cos I like their similarity, but they probably aren't really the appropriate words for the levels of meaning I wanted.

    'no you ni' means 'like [the noun or phrase before no], or seems to be, literally i think it's like 'to the appearance of'

    Konna, Sonna, and Anna are, if I remember rightly the series (question=Donna) relating to this sort of, that sort of, or to this extent, that extent, so 'Sonna kowai' would mean 'this scary' in the sense that it does in English. I think.
