Japan

Who am I?Who am I? I am a Kitchen Mama playing, onigiri cooking, geek girl. I like sitting in the dark playing video games for hours, and I won’t want to stop when you ask me. This summer I am planning to travel to Japan – a place I have been passionate about since I was five years old. The colors and action of anime have attracted me since I first watched Pokemon. My interest soon expanded to include all kinds of anime and manga. (That’s pronounced mon-ga not man-ga.) Every two weeks I attend anime club meetings so I can hang out with other anime lovers like me. Sometimes, if I’m not in an anime or mango mood, I enjoy the excitement of video games. Especially RPGs.
