Hi!
I'm new here and to AS and all that stuff. Well my AS-tests are not finnished yet but all the pre-tests shows that I have it. I also have a lot of other stuff, but that part is finnished and diagnosed.

I guess I'm here to see if there is more like me out there. Right now everything feel like hell and I wonder if there is something normal and healthy with me.

But some positive stuff then..hmm... I'm very creative, I love to write/draw/paint/scrapbooking and I also really love japanese culture, folklore and everything supernatural/paranormal. I always try to be nice and good and to make everyone around me happy.

Well, if your location is accurate... SWEDEN IS AWESOME.

Hajimemashite! (I hope that's spelled right)

Welcome to WP. I'm a big into Japanese culture myself, esp. since I have an aunt who is native Japanese (she married into my otherwise Caucasian family), she and my cousin are totally awesome. My girlfriend is also on the board (goes by Suiseiten), she's taking a Japanese language class at UW this year (University of Wyoming). She studies with another friend of ours who has lived in Japan before, and I'll usually tag along to their study sessions, so I can pick up on the language.

Yes that's right.

Oh that's nice. I'm part japanese myself, nothing that is clearly visible unfortunatly, but my boyfriend is half japanese.
His dad is a bit weird, but he's not typical japanese, he has for example never learned his kids japanese and he doesn't celebrate any japanese feasts.
I have study japanese at a university here in Sweden with a teacher that only spoked japanese and a little english and that thought we had the same schoolsystem here in Sweden as in Japan

Konnichiwa, Hajimemashite!

That's all I got... Welcome to WP.

I too am kind of new but I've become much happier and I believe you will too. Since coming to WP I don't feel so out of place in this world. Glad to have you here.
I too enjoy the Japanese Culture. Hope to see you around and keep being awesome!

I also enjoy the Japanese culture and I'm currently learning Japanese.

Wrong.
'Guten Tag' is basically saying 'Good Afternoon'. So, you'd only say it in the afternoon. Say 'Guten Morgen' in the morning, or 'Guten Abend' in the evening, or just 'Hallo'. Or 'Tag', during the day. And so on.

Ich spreche Deutsch... There isn't really any specific 'good afternoon' greeting. We just use 'Guten Tag' during the day.

Oh. OK. My German teacher taught us Guten Nachmittag.
And what does Auf wiedersehen mean? Is that the good-bye that older people use? And younger people like us use Tschuss? Thats what Frau Wetzel my teacher said! Sorry--I have so many questions! Why is Gute Nacht not Guten Nacht?

Auf Wiedersehen is more formal (like 'goodbye' in English), and 'Tschüs' is like 'bye'. It doesn't matter what age you are.

You like Japan, omgthatssocool!o_O!! sugoisugoisugoi! I love Japan, and been there 3 times. If you ever go to Tokyo you should visit the harajuku district on sundays. That's when and where all the freaks dress up and wander through the streets, hehe.
And super cool that you have a half japanese boyfriend. I used to have a japanese girlfriend that I met in Japan, but distance and communication problems made an end of that =/ But that's past now. Anyway, stay cool and don't be a stranger.
