About me

For those who know the Japanese drama "Nobuta wo produce", let me say ("shout" is more likely) one thing : CLAIRE POWAAAAAAAA... CHUNYU!!! This adapted phrase summarizes me quite well. "FIGHTO 'OH!" from Gokusen wouldn't be bad either.

Life is hard, it's a fact. We all get showered with problems every now and then but know what? I never give up, even if I want to my conscience prevents me from doing it! (^_^)

However, I really do agree with Forest Gump's mother : "LIFE IS LIKE A BOX OF CHOCOLATES, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'RE GONNA GET." Everyday's full of surprises and after the rain comes the sun, and after all, how could we enjoy happiness without knowing the taste of bitterness?

Apart from this very "phylosophical" part of me, I'm a proud otaku, if you still follow me. I love manga, anime, Japanese pop music, and anything Japanese, particularly cute Japanese guys... huh huh!! 

I'm always happy to meet new people and have interesting conversations with them. I love singing and playing unuasual world music instruments like Amerindian flutes and Jew's harps.

Ja ne!

See ya!

A plus !

Yankumi.  (^o^)

Thanks for reading me by the way! I concede that it must have been a terrible experience for you guys to be acquainted with my lousy writing! Gomen gomen...

Kaikyaku, le Visiteur: World stop over
You'll find here traditional and/or current music of all styles from all over the world. Except some songs from bigs names of World and Underground music, these MP3s I wish to share are mostly unusual pieces of music created by artists one'd not have an inkling about or coming from not quite famous places (like Silk Road countries: Mongolia, Kazakhstan...). I really hope you'll appreciate it! Have a good journey through the sound of music my friends!

Konnichiwa!!!! I was reading your profile, and I just wanted to tell you that you are one of the coolest people ever!!!!! You know Japanese? I'm teaching myself Japanese, but I'm still a beginner....could you possibly help me learn? I know it's a selfish request to ask, but I'm also interested in being your friend, not just learning Japanese....I also saw some of your drawings. They're pretty! I draw too! Ano...ja, mata!
Peace & Smile!

That sounds awesome! A few weeks ago, my Japanese teacher invited someone to come and talk about the JET program in class, it sounds like a lot of fun! So what kind of anime do you like? I like all sorts of series, from Fullmetal Alchemist to School Rumble. Mata ne!

Lol thanks, I'm finishing up my 4th semester of Japanese right now. Believe it or not, watching anime and listening to J-rock and J-pop has helped my vocabulary and structural knowledge a whole lot.

Wow, that's quite a degree, trilingual translation. Have you thought about finding a job internationally, or I guess more importantly, are you able to?

Lol don't worry about the talkativeness, you can see it happens to me too ^^.

今日は! はい、よろしく おねがいします。 That's a pretty cool occupation, being a translator.  I'm also hoping to get a degree in Japanese or Asian Studies at some point.
