Thank you for responding, Evie-san. There are a bunch of people on these forums that pretend to be Japanese, but really aren't. That's why I asked and I hope you aren't upset at me for it ^_^;
I'm sorry for your troubles on Skype. That sounds like a real headache!! Maybe you can report the guy to Skype somehow.
Anyway, I'll be around all weekend, so maybe we can talk
Good luck finding lots of people to study with!
