And maybe then you'll also see the difficulty and cost in moving to a very foreign country, half-way around the world, where you don't know anyone, don't know the language or culture, and need to find a job to support yourself. I think then you might realize why your parents are reluctant to move to Japan.

I couldn't (...rather won't ^^;
 read all of it (93 pages, ouch!), but I seriously admire you for your perserverance, Nyororin. I've been looking into ways to get to Japan myself, but I also want the real deal. I have a friend who lived there as an English teacher for awhile and he told me to get my degree and a working visa as well. However, after reading I must say I'm inclined to look into alternative routes. I love English, and I love Japanese. It's obvious which is the rustier of the two, lol. That being said, I want to be able to immerse myself in the language, not speak what I do here all day. If I wanted to speak nothing but English, I'd just stay here in the US, lol. My Japanese still sucks. Feel free to correct me! Any constructive criticism is appreciated.  ((どうも、ナゴナゴさん！！））

Hey! Does it cost going to school in Japan?
These are all a few examples of what life has to offer. But in the end, you get experience. Memories you can rely on. Love. Thoughts, like "Hey, I did this and that. Oh, those were the times." Live life. Don't be afraid. Only YOU can limit yourself! Think positive, not negative

hello-I am looking for someone to maybe help me out-(and I lived in Japan in the late 70's and loved it)-I love the Japanese bobtail cat-I got my first one when I lived there (off the Tokyo streets) and my second one just died after 16 years(from an American breeder)-this has always been the breed of choice for me-
Ok-so here's why I have joined this forum-In the states the black bobtail is hard to come by and almost non existent-in Japan black cats are considered lucky and should be easier to obtain -if you are an animal lover you will understand why I want another of theses awesome guys-the street cat is larger than the American type-only problem is felv-I am thinking that JAWS may have a young male-if there is ANYONE you know who would be willing to help me please reply-onegai-shimasu

IF you learn the language (and that goes for every language) and the culture, you will have experiences a tourist or expat would never have! I can tell you so many wonderful things about the country-and many ways to avoid problems. When I lived in Tokyo I did not live on a US base-we lived in central Tokyo and my neighbors and landlady were Japanese-my kids learned to play with their Japanese companions and learned the colloquial (sometimes good sometimes bad). I did not associate with other expats because as I learned the language I became well accepted by the Japanese neighbors. I believe in ways Japan has changed since I was there-I still am in contact with my sensei-I studied sumi-e (seriously and not as a thing to take up my time - I have a degree in art) and loved it. Like the US-Japan has good and bad-when the culture seems so different to you that you just want to turn away-remember-the Japanese have a different belief system than you do- please do NOT hold yourself above them-there is so much to learn if you go! Bonne Chance!
