I did study it for seven years when i was in school, but ever since i have started uni i havent really had much of chance to speak it anymor and have since lost the ability to. But im pretty shure that i will come back to me if i put in the effort before i go. However, i was not very good with reading kanji At my university i know that they plan trips to Japan all the time through the school of LOTE and Nursing, so it might be wise to tag along with one of those. |

Seven years? When did you start studying? |
Berty | Jun 1, 2004 | |||
I was lucky that the primary school that i went to began teahing Japanese in grade 5. Then when i got to highscool, i took it up again from years eight to twelve. |

... You lucky bastard. We got spanish, french and German. The three most unfun languages ever. |

It was the same here; depending on what school you went to affected what language you learnt. In primary school we learnt Latin (shitious maximus!) and Japanese. In high school we could either do Japanese or French (which comes in handy for Eurovision!) Other schools in the area also did German, Chinese and Vietnamese if i can remember correctly. |

Jeez, we only have Spanish and French at our highschool. There is really no point in taking either, because the teachers are too incompetant to teach anyone a new language. What did I learn in 3 years of Spanish?? I might be able to go down to Mexico and buy 1-29 tacos. But back on topic; I'd do what mal said, send multiple packages to bring your stuff back. For a cheap place to stay, just find a sleezy hotel somewhere, or if you really want to go cheap, get one of those hotels where they stuff you in a drawer. I'd love to go to Japan...can you get some Gore Flicks DVDs for me? |
