So if you were a famous author, you could apply for a special visa.

And that's what I want.
But the fact that I have to wait until I get a degree to go to Japan just angers me. Going there would crucial to most of my stories, because as I've said before, most of them take place in Japan.
That, and I'm writing now and would like to go. All the more to help me in learning the culture and language. The only words I know are konichiwa, arigato, and just names I have for my characters in the stories.
For life in the stories so far, I'm going off what I see in movies, read off wikipedia, and read on here as well as other things on the Japanese life.
But having to wait until after college? I'll probably be like twenty something, and I'm not a very patient person with things I really wanna do.
