I want to do either a study year in University (continuing with my current degree, which is Psychology with Sociology Bsc). Or possibly a working year, again in an area under the umbrella of psychology.
I don't know the situation in Japan for these things, but I am determined to get there one way or another. Luckily my Japanese teacher has had students go to Japan for placement years before (albeit I don't know what degree programme they were on).
If I can't get into Japan my backup plan is that I'm studying Mandarin Chinese in my spare time, so China or Taiwan are my backups.
EDIT: Why is everyone arguing about Japanese women? Surely they're not so different to women everywhere else as to not date certain people and date others etc? I think you're all arguing over something particularly pointless and not relevant to the thread.
