Half Jew half American? How does that work? I didnt realise someones religion effected them in that way, Do you mean you are half isreali and half american? Or that you are a Jewish American (as opposed to any other religious group)? |

Hi There Everyone
Name : Hardy (Nickname) From: United States I am a school student Junior High School as what you call in Japan I hope I will have a good time here. Have a good day everyone. |
Hello!
My name is Heather, although I go by various different names. My most common name is Meepey. I come from the USA. I've come to learn Japanese! : D Yay! I'm still almost brand new even though I've been exposed to Japanese for almost 5 years. I am currently studying very hard to learn. But there's a problem, -.-, I cannot memorize my kana! O:< No matter how many times I write it down, and all that other wonderful junk, I can't memorize half of them for the life of me. And I'm also interested meeting others who are interested in a lot of what I'm interested in! : ) I hope to learn a lot here, and meet a lot of people too! Later! :ywave: |
Will this help?
|
Do you get pleasure out of this or something, Mamda?
Cuz only people who like this stuff will post it. ; ) |
I haven't aten anything today, that's either a good or bad thing . . .

Should I reintroduce myself? It's been a while.
On here, it's Aota. But this is an old name from 07. If you want, you can call me by my real name, John. I'm living currently in Texas. I'm attending ITT for my bachelors in computer electronic engineering technology. Afterward, I hope to get an associates at a automechanic school, so I may tinker with the computers in cars for a living. I enjoy reading, writing poetry, listening to pretty much any kind of music except country; I enjoy the idea of traveling to get culture under my belt, I love tattoos, and currently have three. Going in for my fourth sometime in the summer. Sleeping is always nice. I try to learn as much about any car as possible. Weight lifting is fun. I'm a very inquisitive person, so I like to explore places whenever given the chance or opportunity. :) If ya wanna know anything else, feel free to ask. |
Hi everyone, my name is Billy and I just signed up here.
I took a year of Japanese back in college, but I promptly went and forgot most of it. In grad school, one of my classes took a trip to Tokyo for two weeks. It was totally awesome! It really inspired me learn Japanese again so that I can eventually go back to Japan and travel around for awhile. I hope to share and learn a lot from you all here. -Billy |
Yey~

Intro about little old me~
Hello~ Let me give you a 'brief' introduction about myself.
My webname is Crulii, and I am Korean by birth and I currently attend Seoul Global High School~ If there's any Koreans here then please feel free to contact me~ I love Japanese culture and can understand why my government hates Japan's so much, but can't understand why they just can't hug it out. I got into Japan when I first started learning the language from secondary school in England, and the similarities Japanese had to my own language made it easier for me to learn... now I aspire to live a Bohemian life, and I want to attend Oxford (WOW BIG DREAMER) and study theology there. I'm open to any sort of ideas and theories, especially those involving sexual orientation and religion. My favourite thing about Japan has to be how aethetic everything seems to be, but I especially love the rock music there, since Korea has far to go on that area. But I don't really like pop, country, rap or grunge. Even though I'm a student, I still have to do my hobbies and things like drawing, writing, etc. ( I have a dA, if anyone's curious feel free to ask) Ah, that was long. Sorry about that. >-< I hope I can get along with everyone I can here~ Thank you~:ywave: |
Hey all new here!

Nice to meet both of you! Enjoy your stay here! |
Hello! I'm a foreign-exchange student at KUFS (Kyoto University for Foreign Studies) from America, studying for my Japanese major. I'll be over here in Kyoto for a year and I'd really love to meet up with lots of other anime/game fans who live around here, Japanese or otherwise. I look forward to getting to know everyone on the board!
