I hope to live in Japan one day, after I learn Japanese of course. Anyways, right now I am a Junior at my High School, and I am taking a Japanese class to help me out. We started learning Hiragana not too long ago, and to practice I really wanted some new friends to just chat with online. Talk about anything and become good buddies

My skills are not high, so I do not know much Hiragana. I have a dictionary so I can convert English words into Romaji, then into Hiragana, but I am a bit shaky.
