I may soon be getting a real job, and if I do get it, I should have more than enough money to study in Japan. I am planning on studying for five to six years, because the first place I am going to is to learn the language itself, and these people have a program that is supposed to help you pass the JLPT and get into various universities.

My intention is to be an interpreter/translator, for Japanese to English AND Spanish(English and Spanish= my native languages, though I shouldn't know Spanish and don't like to consider it one of my native languages, since that's not really our language, but nobody can speak whatever language the TaĆ­no spoke anymore), and vice versa. Mostly interpreter, but I love both the spoken and written language very much (especially the written language, and obviously, to pass the JLPT and most importantly, get into a university there, you really do need to be capable of speaking, reading, and writing the language.

If and when I get the chance, I also want to learn Mandarin and German, and maybe Thai. Languages interest me very much, probably from a desire to understand people, and my general love of languages.
