Thread: Who's fluent in Japanese or IS Japanese or part?

I'm part Japanese I'll post a pic up later in the gallery for eyes but my friend won't let me use his cam so I'll go to his house and use it anyways. I'm 1/2 Japanese and I can speak barely enough Japanese to say many sentences lol...

I wish i was japanese. japanese girls are so beautiful! oh well. one day im gonna move there anyways

I'm 1/8 Japanese. Hahahah. Whatever Japanese features/genes that may have passed on are so watered down you don't see them in me - but I don't look pure Chinese, that's for sure. =) (I'm also 1/16 Vietnamese )

I can speak Japanese... well, a little short of fluently. I've been there loads of times - the first being in 1998, for a gymnastics competition. Looking back, I'm not exactly sure how I survived winter in Hakodate. And it was January! Ohmigosh. I must have been one tough kid, cuz I don't remember wearing any long johns. I've been to Kobe too (yum, beef!), Tokyo (for only a week, though, and I didn't even go to Disneyland! *sob*), Kyoto for some major sightseeing and Nagoya for a couple of months as an exchange student.

I like the fact that Japan's roads seem a lot less congested than Malaysia's (prolly due to everyone using public transport, trains and bicycles) and that in spite of it being a country with loads of factories and stuff, the air's a lot cleaner. And how all those salespeople manage to stay so cheerful all the time is beyond me.

I'm korean adopted by an american and japanese lady and living in mexico.....I can understand almost all japanese....I can speak only a little and writing I can only understand and write hiragana.....I've been there maybe 4 or 5 times....the last time I went was this March.....it was cooooold!! :P eventhough it was already entering spring time it was coold....but I got to see some sakura trees so I was happy ^.^

I don't find Japan cold in spring.

Or maybe that's just because I'm always there in winter (cuz my school holidays are from Dec-Jan). Kobe was a little chilly in fall, but that's probably because I didn't listen to my mum when she told me to bring a sweater along. I thought I'd be fine without extra layers. ^^;;

Yeah its really cool in Japan im glad i was born and made to be at least part because you see im im Asian/American white/filipino and japanese which is really awesome yeah omg Tokyo dont get started there when i first went there i got so lost i was like 7yrs old at the time me and my parents were going to our new home but i got lost in the crowd because(you know how some parts are crowded with people in the streets) and i ended up at a bar and this old man was smilin and laughed said"you lost little man?"and i stood there frighten and about to cry but he let me sit by him outside the bar(oh yeah.they'll let a kid in the bar,,dont think so^^ and then 5hrs later my parents find me surprisingly and yell at the man for supposly kidnapping me(what a bunch of morons) and i went home laughing and happy that day because it was funny.^_^
