However, I did see all the things you saw, and more, I simply chose to start small. Inundating someone with every little rule to a specific language can be confusing. Just think about your own time in school, and how long it may have taken you to understand even the basic rules of English grammar. I, for one, couln't figure out prepositions until 5th grade.
In short, teaching is different from editing. Having done both, I specifically chose to ignore some errors in order to reinforce some basic rules. "I am" is a pet peeve of mine, which is why I chose to mention it, it would seem that we are both grammar obsessed. :P As far as that last "lets", I saw it after I had finished. I guess it's a bad idea to be doing this sort of thing when you're exhausted. XD
I hope that made sense. :)

Yeah. I have to apologize still. I tend to have all the subtlety of Godzilla in a pink tutu.;)

Wouldn't that be "I still have to apologize?" Sorry, only teasing.

I am definitely interested in finding someone to talk to or correspond with, although I am not picky about a conversation partner being a native speaker of Japanese. I have two years of (American) university level Japanese classes, which is next to nothing, really. I don't even mind much if your Japanese language abilities are less than my own, so long as you have the desire to try to carry a conversation - helping someone else learn helps me learn.

So to Junkomi, or anyone else interested in a mutual exchange, written or oral, I would be happy to participate.

Hi
 
I started with skype because everybody here says skype is best software.
But my laptop doesn't work well with skype. All of my partners said its too noisy to recognize my voice on skype.
I used msn as a way to have a voice chat today for the first time. My voice is clear there. And I decided to quit using skype.

Thank all of you.
