Now think about having to learn those terms in Japanese and understanding exactly what a patient that speaks no English is trying to tell you.
bah. i'm very driven to do this, so it may not be a walk in the park..but i'll be able to do it.
i'm already bilingual & i feel like that would help me understand other languages & learn them faster. as for learning medical terms in japanese, no problem.
what i'm really worried about is immigrating there & being able to stay there & stuff what with everyone saying japan is one of the hardest place to move to. -_-



But to despair was to wish back for something already lost.
Or to prolong what was already unbearable.
