Thanks, protheus.

nice car!

Hi,student95
Thanks for your reply, I enjoye it:)

I think using "possum" is very Aussie!
I wonder what Kiwi Adults use often!

I don't think we do that way in Japanese...
they just call the kids with their name + ちゃんorくん... or just make their name shorter.

Sakura was very happy when she found her name here... she couldn't read them all, but she knows that now she's got an Aussie friend!

She left her message (introduction for everyone) at the Children Forum.

She will get so excited if she find a message from you there, so would you give her a message?

Thank you, I was trying to do a school bus, but this forum kinda messes up spacing :P .

My name is Alin (short for Catalin), nice to meet you loveskyliemole. I've tried earlier to answer to Kanon but, at work, this site is blocked and using other methods of connection has some ups and downs (sometimes I can post, but only sometimes)

Nice to meet you Alin:)

A school bus ! right!

Oh, Karen would be happy to talk to you!

She is coming back on the 12th with me here(we are going to have holidays for 20days from this weekend)

Have a good day:ywave:

I am currently learning Japanese and I am fluent in English so I can use both in the letters. I am 16, a junior in high school, and I already work a lot with children and helping teach languages.
Please send me an email or a message through here about how I can help out or become a part of this.
