Name: Amyekins (愛美キンズ)
Location: Indiana
Why do you love Japan: Well, I my interest in Japan started when I was little. I watched Mermaid scar(Great first anime for a little child eh?) and wondered why it was different from Canadian cartoons(Born and raised Canadian mafia style cool ) My brother got me interested in Japan's language and culture as a grew older<3 Now I am in 3rd/4th year Japanese at my school. My teacher speaks so enthusiastically about it, no wonder why I love it! I especially love informal Japanese. Formal Japanese is what I learn in school but Haruna is teaching me informal. Oh yes, Haruna! I have an exchange student from Okinawa! She is so cute(She wrote, "Are you a porno?" on my arm last nightxD). I am also hosting her brother, Kazuki, next year. I also love their music a lot! Otsuka Ai, Bump of Chicken, all those awesome bands. I am interested in learning the language fluently because I am preparing to become a linguist>.< I know English and French(Don't ask to talk to me in French, you wouldn't understand what I can remember due to where I lived;- wink Anyways, I love the culture, fashion, music, language, and most importantly(not really), the food! razz
Ever been to Japan, if so where:No. I am going with some other Japanese students at my school to Japan on June 5th this year(My graduation present). I plan to eat everything I can affordxD But on the trop we are going all over! I have also been invited to stay in Okinawa for a year, so I may do that my sophomore year of college<3
Interests: Besides Japanese? I love learning new languages! I took 12 years of French in school(but spoke it for 13 years), Japanese for 4 years, Spanish for 2 years, and this year I am taking German. I am trying to learn Korean and Swedish right now. I think I may start taking up Chinese(intimidating;- wink . I also love t.A.T.u.! I have loved them since I was in 6th grade. Other bands I like are Ilona Mitrecey, Placebo, Ayu, Story Book Of Murders, and Saliva(I can't think of any;- wink .

I have many phobias really. I like girls, if that is a part of personality...Guys have lost my interest once again so oh well:/ (this is getting longgg!) I also am very passionate about what I believe in, but I won't put others' interests below mine. I like to hang around people who are labled, "Gangstas" because I grew up in Canada's mafia town, and I am attracted to the crowd*pictures fly to a light scene* @o@;; I try to talk ebonics to gangstas at the mall...they get angry most of the time>.>;; Oh yes, I am crazy about school work>.< I was very upset to learn I got a B in Econ this past semester! My mum has always told me to get a good education, so I am trying. Ah! I am a momma's girl razz I can't help it;-; I also like gay guys a lot. My dad and brother are gay(And yes, we found out about my dad AFTER I was born razz )
Any other Additional Info: Hm, it is getting really long sorry. No one will read this allxD Ok I am the President of the Japanese Club and the French club(In fact, I am the only one who has ever been president of either of themxD) I was born in North Bay, Ontario. I love snow! I love snow boarding, ice skating, and the Polar Dip! I also love gymnastics, and Haruna is getting me into Yoga<3 I love to sing, but you will only hear me sing if you put on t.a.t.u., as I will not sing publicly unless it is to them! I love Law and Order SVU! Sexy red head:O I love Profile Comments! Hey if you can read it then you are as good as me in Japanese! <3 If you can't I will tell you what it means>.>;; I hope you can read it though!

I like expressing my opinion and I try not to let my toung run away with itself as it tends to digress from the subject.
I like games and anime and I feal like a total idiot for likeing anime because my friends are such noobs about it that it tests my nerves on a day to day basis. I also am under the firm beleif that technology is our friend, no matter what you people say (( I just know I am going to be eaten by robots for this someday.... oh well...))
