Thanks Diversejapan. I started in 2002, and i am still studying, actually, it is getting more and more serious with every passing day. This is definitely what I want to do in my life. Hopefully, in few years time i will leave Tokyo one day and move to Kyoto for more in-depth studies on the university over there.
