Wonderful!

Me: The 'ji' and the 'tsu' are separate syllables!
Most of my friends: Who cares?
Me: No Japanese syllables end in 't'!
The people around me: And...
Me: But Kajitsu is an awesome word!
Nearly everyone I know: Whatever.

And that's where my Japanese language skills go. Down the drain. *exaggerated sigh*

"Not all goths wear black
Not all emos cut themselves
Not all depressed people can just "be happy."

That's life. Deal with it."

I love that statement

I added to it a feeling based on some weird ideas of people I know.

It's so sad...

Are you going for college or high school?

If it weren't for law enforcement and physics...
I'd be invincible.

I hope in high school, but my parents have a say in it. T_T

Rotary is generally not a good idea if you HAVE to go to Japan. Rotary picks your country for you out of your top 5-10 list (but they are pretty good at picking it, I haven't seen anyone unhappy with their country after they came back).

Honestly I wouldn't suggest Exchange unless you are into all kinds of different countries (when I went, for example, I didn't care if I got Taiwan, China, Korea, or Japan). Spots for Japan in all programs are getting pretty tight.

I went to Okinawa for a Summer and I'm taking a Gap Year through Rotary to an unknown country :]

That's hard. I am either going to Japan or I am not. No exceptions!
