Hi everyone,
My name’s Stephanie, I’m from Quebec, Canada. Yes my main language is french so I’m also praticing my english while learning japanese…though I belive I’m not that bad in english hehehe
I’ve been a member of Text fugu for a while but never really had the chance to start studying for real…recently I got a little bit more time so I though, Why not give it a try again…
Why do I want to study Japanese…well I have a lot of reason…
Like most of you my main reason is because someday I want to go to Japan and be able to find what I want to see and try. I don’t want to miss an opportunity because of the language barrier. I want to be able to make new friends, know people, what they do, what they like, how they live, and more. I also want to be able to understand the Japanese TV show I actually watch with subtitle (when I can find them…)
But really, I really like Japanese’s culture and I want to learn more about it. I feel that learning Japanese will make me feel more close to this culture.I love Anime, I watch a lot of them…I don’t mind them being subtitle but I love when I understand what they say without having to read.
I’m also a Huge fan of the girl band Morning Musume and Hello!Project, I love their music and I would love to be able to read their personal blog without translation and understand what they say during MC’s and TV shows…
Being ablue to do that would make me really happy!
Finally, I’m not to much of a Forum person….So I might not come as much as I inted to….But I’m pretty active on Facebook so if you guys feels like chatting and have fun, let me know! =)
Thanks for reading my intro.
~Rosette~Hey there! Welcome back Stephanie.
My reasons for learning Japanese are pretty much similar to yours. I’m sort of starting over on TextFugu as well though I do take Japanese lessons at school. If you would like a study buddy … i’m here!I’m having trouble foccussing right now….
I guess I have a lot of stuff that makes me worry so I can’t concentrate on my japanese learning =_=;;;
I don’t wanna drop it again T_T
~Rosette~This could just be a me thing, but when I’m having trouble concentrating I go to the laundry room in my building, toss in a load, and there’s a guaranteed hour and 40 minutes of study time, with a break after 38 minutes. There are no distractions in the laundry room, the cell reception is garbage, and there’s nothing else to do. For me it works because I pit my laziness against my apathy, and rather than go back upstairs and do something, I stay and force myself to study.
That may not be exactly useful for you but hey, if you live in a building with a big laundry room, there’s your answer lol.
And lest someone beat me to it:

As for the laundry thing…it’s a really good idea….though I live in an apartment with my own washing machine lol
Anyway, I took the time to do a chapter this morning and I enjoyed it a lot ^_^
Thx
