Hi, my "name" is Sakura Shinji Tsukishiro. Just call me Sakura. ^__^ Real name unsaid Besides Japanese, I also Enjoy cooking! Mostly Japanese things though. I love taking many pictures of nature as well. I enjoy drawing (anime) also. Right now my favorite "sport" is badminton in which I play in my back yard with my brother, when I'm not at ORU. | I love anime, thats the truth. However there is more to me than that. I love Japan, I love Japanese, I love the people. Its been long since my heart was taken by the Japanese. Often I long to be in Japan and do things that many Japanese people feel as a burden or take for granted. I can't give a good reason why I started to like Japanese.. Of course the original reason was because of anime but... Many people look down on that reason, and think lightly of me when I tell them that I learned Japanese from anime... Maybe other people can't learn it right from anime, but I can. It's more of a reference. Anime is great, especially w/o subs. Also I took two Japanese classes to reinforce what I learned.. And thanks to my many years (5) of studying Japanese by anime, I'm able to understand over 95% of the material very easily, when others struggle I'm getting the 100%s. Of course the classes are necessary to pull it all together, but I don't believe people learn languages in a classroom. Often confusing rules and the memories of tests help the material to fade from memory fast. But not me. I speak Japanese everyday. I watch anime everyday, I hear Japanese everyday! Now thats how you learn a language!
