Name: Megan
+ Coming to you from: Oh~~~ Canada... (dan dan dan) baloney and sardines... + First Breath: February 22nd, 1996. + Intentions and whatnot: Hmm... well, I would love teach English in this beautiful country. Since I was a kid, I've always wanted to be a teacher. I would really like to be a kindergarten teacher, but I'd have more luck with elementary-high school, so I guess that's what I want to do. ^^; I have a lot of dreams, but my biggest is to go here, so even if from the bottom of my heart I don't get my dream job, if I can have my dream country, I know I can be happy! ^_^ + Why do you want to go to Japan: I want to go to Japan because it is so rich in culture. Japan is a very misunderstood country, as well, and many westerners see Japan as 'Ching chong wong wing' or 'slant-eyes'. As a child, I wasn't really very normal (shocker, huh?) and instead of Barney, I'd sit down watching Hamtaro, Sailor Moon, Pokemon and Dragon Ball Z. (I had bad choice...) I began drawing Sailor Moon a lot. I suddenly became so absorbed in this style that I could sit for hours and hours just doodling 'Sailor Moon' people. When I got a little older, I used the internet and discovered this was called 'anime and manga' and I realized this is what I had been drawing all of my life. I never quit for a second, it was my passion. Today, it still is Then, in grade 4, my teacher who I will never forget showed me Japan. We read a book about a Japanese girl who was an artist, but got hurt by the Nagasaki bombing (is that it?) and couldn't paint anymore. (I remember the name: Mieko and the Fifth Treasure) I can't remember anymore, but our teacher taught us kanji, and one week instead of a spelling test we had a kanji test! We were shown how to count to ten and say the basics like, 'hot', 'cool', 'cute'. That was also the year I met one of my best friends, who was also influenced by our teacher. Everything went uphill from there. Eventually, my friend forgot about Japan, but Japan has been my life forever, and I'm ready to go. ^^;; (Wow, how long~) + Favourite Manga/Anime: Any sappy shoujo. ^^;; (Clannad is the best, however...)

Name: Shed
Location: Kelowna, BC Canada; originally from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Birthday: July 2, 1989 Intentions: Really, my girlfriend gimpykitty showed me here. I figured I'd join. We both intend to go to Japan to study for a term or a year within the next two years, so it might be interesting to meet to some Japanese originals. Japan: I'm most interested in Japan for the culture, especially the traditional culture. There are so many aspects of Japanese culture that are better than Western cultures. Of course, my love for Japanese music and my (mild) interest in anime, manga and video games also figures into that. Anime/Manga: I don't really watch anime or read manga much at all, and it's not exactly lack of interest. However, I have watched Pokémon, Digimon (both quite a while ago), Love Hina, Wolf's Rain (both entirely), and bits and pieces of other ones. I have read even less.
