Happy new year too all those celebrating. I have always wanted to learn Japanes for some time now. It’s nice to see others on the forums whom are Anime/Manga fans as well. There are so many artistic works in this area that I simply have no access to because of my illiteracy in the area. The Japanese culture is facinating to me and I would love to make it to Japan one day. I wish I could have made it there during my military days, but instead got stuck in Italy. Don’t get me wrong, Italy was a beautiful place as well as its neighboring contries, but the culture did not suit a technological geek like myself, LoL. I don’t know if speaking will be accomplished well with this site, but if I can simply read and write the language, I would make a great success story. They say illeteracy is bad, but it’s ok to be mute right? LoL

Good luck to all those starting today, I wish you all well!
