And you probably hate me right now for making you think. So I’m sorry. I’m attending school at The Ohio State University (Insert School Spirit). I’m a total nerd with an unhealthy addiction to fashion, graphic design, and Robert Downey Jr. I love trying new things (I just picked up knitting. And Japanese, obviously) and I’ve got a bit of an impulsive streak. I also say things that are rarely appropriate that will either make you laugh and/or blush. Or walk away.

I’ve been wanting to learn Japanese for a while now and after a long conversation with my sister, finally decided to just do it. For years people have told me it’s not worth it, it’s better to put your energy in an easier language, etc., so I now have about five years of French under my belt; instead of doing what’s “smart,” I want to do something that’ll make me happy. And Japanese (and donuts) make me very happy. Ideally, I would like to live in California and work internationally, hopefully in gaming or advertising or fashion, but starting out I’d really like to teach English abroad. Just not to children. I don’t like babies.

So that’s me. I’m excited to be a part of this community and to learn Japanese with all of you!

I live in the USA, too. In a state next to yours, actually. So, I’ll be wishing some motivational energy your way.

Enjoy your lessons.

Are you named after the band Pink Martini? Because that would earn you super Portland cred with me and Koichi :p
