My First Conversation Club Meet

I was looking forward to attending the conversation club, wondering how it was going to be for one whole hour of NO ENGLISH, considering I can put all my knowledge of Japanese in my pockets - but since it's winter time - my jacket pockets included =)  Armed with my written down questions plus my mini electronic dictionary there I bravely went.  There were four of my classmates plus two native Japanese speakers seated at our table and we actually had a pretty good conversation going.  As the conversation was going there were times that I totally forget to use correct grammar as long as I can convey what I mean and this means gestures - yeah like charades - and pretty much broken Japanese:  "Hanami sakura ichiban doko desu ka?"  - that's just an example.  It was muzukashii however really fun and challenging.  I would definitely do this again!
