Whatever the answer to those two questions, that's the route you should pursue. If nothing comes of it, you might find that anything besides teaching English will earn you less than you made as a teacher, possibly quite a bit more. If that's the case, I'd recommend sticking with English teaching until you build up your Japanese and other skill sets. Someone else may have a different take though.

I can draw pretty pictures? (Or at least 4 years of art school I can bullshit someone into believing what I draw is worthwhile)

2)
I'm cute?
