Have you ever seen those Japanese T-shirts with hilariously bad English? You're going to be wearing one like that - for the rest of your life. Just don't let a Japanese see you or they'll piss themselves in laughter - even we Americans do it.

There is no Kanji for your name.

Your name means nothing in Japanese.

Katakana is going to sound like a Japanese person with a very bad accent trying to say your name. Have fun with that.

you don´t have to sound so angry.
I haven´t read so much about japan or speak either...I haven´t had de chance to learn any because there is no school here who teach japanese. And it is hard for me to find any good help on swedish.
And I´m not collecting any cultures or something like that. I´m going to japan soon...I like some of there musicbands who I look forward to see live. And I love there anime. And I want to write japanese because I think it looks beautiful and sounds nice when you speak it.
I`m jealous of them....but I love my country too...so I wanted something that was japanese... And I´m not some teenage little girl who don´t now what she´s doing..
