I wish the rice cooking session will be finished soon :V I'm hungry

There's really not much to cooking rice except for the button-pressing. Or are you doing something special?

 

I wish I wouldn't keep veering into Japanese when I try to speak Spanish.

But they're so different O.o

I wish I would stop speaking a weird combo of Madarin-English at home.

not really, lol

Japanese originated from Chinese.

You mean Chinglish? Why not?

It really helps fill in the gaps that I can't fill using the other language.

Saying something like "I want 辣椒 (làjiāo)" has a different connotation than the literal translation "I want pepper" since  辣椒 is really flexible in its meaning. Plus, my parents and I have a mutual understanding of Chinglish, so it's all good in this household.

Yeah, but that's just the kanji part. The way you say it is really different. To me, Spanish=Weird Japanese.

So it's called Chinglish? B)

I'm a bit different though. We speak Mandarin for the most part, but use English to fill in the nouns. So it'd be something like "今天有一個 test". 

 

I wish 2016 would come sooner... For moar SoK.

I know this is just a typo, but Shingeki on Kyojin?  Japanglish.

It's AoK and SnK combined :V

... Yeah, typo.

I wish iOS had another way to show that you received a text instead of having it loom over your screen.
