eh, I'll admit my family still isn't peaches and creme. I'd rather not talk about what happened to one of my brothers, but what he did was kinda his fault. I felt my mom did all she could to stop him on his road, but whatever.
Sorry to hear that it isn't 'cool' between you and your mom. I will say that I think I've benifited from your story.
I admire you on how you can tell your story, though. I dont think I could muster the will to say it. I'm grateful, however, that you did
To be honest, I have no dreams of running off in japan, (however, I do want to live there, but not right now; perhaps in a decade or so...).
So, to ask questions:
1) Why is it so hard to become a citizen in japan?
2) why will one end up going back to their native country, eventually?
3) Is it even possible (or likely) that a person in NA could become, over time, a citizen of japan (nationalist or something...?)
4) I don't have the luxury of spending money to go to japan yet, whats the 2nd best thing to learn japanese; or rather, do you have any other suggestions OTHER than living there?
5) If I get a visa in Work, does that mean I also cant be a student? Is it possible to have 'dual' visas?
6) How lenient are they on foreigners making mistakes to their custom?
I know that if I go there, I will probably end up being 'rude' on several occaisions (not intentionally, though).
sorry for the bombardment, but one more question:
isn't there a system where you can go to japan, and they'll hook you up with a 'psuedo' family to help you get started living a life there? (it sounds weird, I think, but I think I heard of something like this...)
Thanks in advance.
