Although I do enjoy text chatting in Japanese, I relly need to get over the shyness of speaking.almostotakuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12291535814465990337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6842114.post-56729498209241555482009-01-08T10:37:00.000+09:002009-01-08T10:37:00.000+09:00Glad to see it worked for you!Come to think of it,...Glad to see it worked for you!<BR/><BR/>Come to think of it, I hardly ever took "notes" in high school either.
