Just putting it out there that if anyone ever needs help with Japan, be it book recommendations, translation help or language homework, or something about the culture, I'm more than happy to help out. I've been studying the language for going on 7 years (on my own and in college), and I've got an array of academic texts under my belt and more at my disposal.

My specific area of interest is in the world of geisha: I have a small blog and a tumblr where I write little research articles about whatever happens to interest me at the moment.

The day, which was one of the first of spring, cheered even me by the loveliness of its sunshine and the balminess of the air. I felt emotions of gentleness and pleasure, that had long appeared dead, revive within me. Half surprised by the novelty of these sensations, I allowed myself to be borne away by them, and forgetting my solitude and deformity, dared to be happy.
