I speak for the trees. I speak for the trees for the trees have no tongues.


Tyler Castner and I practicing with the Seisen University students, Misa Ariyama, Kotono Ootsuki, and Yuta Onishi before our live radio show.

Two months ago I knew zero Japanese. Sunday I did an interview with Seisen University students on a live internet show, in Japanese. Was my Japanese any good? Probably not. Most likely it sounded like two year old repeating the only words he or she knows over and over again. None the less I was proud of myself. Tyler and I had been with working with the university students for over a month figuring out what we were going to talk about.

Aside from my horrible Japanese the show was actually a lot of fun. We talked about JCMU, our favorite Japanese food, anime and other aspects about our lives here in Japan. We broadcasted the show from the second floor of a cafe in Hikone. It was a really cool place that use to be post office. After we finished the show we all went downstairs and enjoyed coffee and cake.
