My second video on Japanese cellphones! I’ll show you how to text in Japanese as well as use their ridiculous emoticons. It’s just my crappy Softbank phone, so I can only show you the basics, but the basics are pretty wicked, IMO.

I think you might have to pay through the nose if you tried to do that. But I bet it’s possible. The plan would just be crazy expensive probably. But I know I can’t use my phone in America. ;_;

LOL, I’ve already been to one, and let me tell you, I’ve seen enough old lady butts to fill a lifetime. That’s not a bad idea though, I’ll see what I can do. I might get dirty looks if I took a camera into one though, even just the lounge area where everyone’s dressed. I’m pretty sure I’d be escorted out pretty quickly.

Do an 温泉 video!! err… well not naked, you know.
Here’s the dealio: …
Here’s the dealio: chan and kun are basically the same term except kun is almost always used for boys, where as chan can be used for either. They’re used when you’re referring to someone younger or of a lower “ranking” than you, however you wanna interpret that. San is pretty general and you use it for people you don’t know or don’t know well, or for someone older/of a higher “ranking” than you. San is a good default to fall back on if you don’t know which of these to use, because its so common.
um hi!n ok well im …
um hi!n ok well im always confused by this. what the difference between san, chan, kun, and the like?
if you could explain that would be awesome!!!
wow so the total …
wow so the total program was 6k.:0ill find a way to get a scholaship and ill work off the 3k(i think lol) i was thinking abt doing th excange program college but thts 2 long of a wait for me(ive been waiting to go since i was 5, and no not just because of animae) im going to go in the summer as well as for college for a year at least. o vid. suggestion! u shld do things tht stand out to u in jap. tht A. dsnt have, such as tech.(using a cell to order fod@mcdnlds)or mayb what their mall loks like
no problem! Here’s …
no problem! Here’s where I have to bum you out though: the YFU program was pretty freakin’ expensive. I got a scholarship for half of it—$3000. x_x However, I had a blast while I was there. But still, I’d recommend a year as an exchange student while you’re in college instead, because ideally you’d just be paying for your home university’s tuition, but studying abroad (that’s what I’m doing now).
tyvm. and about the …
tyvm. and about the “youth for understanding” program how much was it for the 5 or 6 week prgram during the summer and did u enjoy it? thx for al of thereplys:) it means a lot
japanese emoticons …
japanese emoticons are kick ass. i wish they would have them on american phones….now my lil japanese keitai sits all alone in my dresser drawer. no smiley faces or poo icons to send T_T
Yeah, wabi-sabi is …
Yeah, wabi-sabi is a little contradictory to the orderly Japanese culture you normally think of (which is why I like wabi-sabi so much), but it does emphasize simplicity and modesty, which are values you see focused on a lot in Japan, at least traditionally.
And J-Pop! Heck yes I will do a video on that. I might do a general vid on J-music (all genres) and then make another on just J-rock/pop. hope that sounds fun?
sorry, both …
sorry, both deletions were an accident! I don’t hate you, promise! And the program I did was called “Youth For Understanding”–it was a summer program for 6 weeks, and I didn’t get school credit for it because of this. You CAN go for a semester or a year and get credit, but it would all be in Japanese (that was too intense for me at the time). It’s hard to find programs where you can take classes in English, but as for colleges, check out Kansai Gaidai University (thats where I’m at now).
Nice
