Hello everyone, my name is Kairu and I am in your Japanese II class this semester. I chose Japanese as a foreign language because I wanted to challenge myself and learn a language that is not typically chosen in the U.S. Another reason I chose Japanese as a foreign language is that my major is geology, and as everyone has witnessed in recent events, Japan is very geologically active. I would like to visit Japan one day, so learning Japanese would be very helpful. What I like most about Japanese is the writing system, although it does get very complex and is different from or own writing system, I think it is very elegant. Good luck to everyone this semester.
