Hello/ Hola/ Konichiwa!

Hello!

I'm new and I'm here to practice and learn Spanish. As of right now I am in Spanish 2 in highschool. I'm a very strange person, usually posting something along the lines of Richard did this or Richard did that. Richard is my muse, so I communicate with him a lot, this, of course, does not reflect my degree of sanity. I'm interested in anime and manga, reading, writing, and I seem to live on the internet - Gaiaonline, Franky-House, and a few other places.

To avoid a wall of text, I'm very much a 'metalhead' but I enjoy all types of music.

As mentioned before, Mi espanol es mal. However, I'm hopeful that this place will teach me quite a bit.

Also, or rather finally, my ultimate goal is to learn Japanese, But until I have mort free time I'll stick with a language that I'm supposedly learning at school.

P.S. I often leave side note when I write, sometimes the note is longer than the actual response itself.

A muse is a figurative or mental being that helps a person think and be creative. Honors Spanish, wow, I apploud (sp) you!

Chinese? Well if things had worked out I would be learning that this year at school, but the teacher 'didn't return' or in other words they let her go... That's how it goes I suppose.
Well, maybe next year they will have something else.

At my high school, they are giving out Chinese classes for kids to try out. The teacher communicates with the students by web cam.
I take the Chinese course (it's really easy, I don't really know why I took it).

フォーラムにようこそ Japanese kinda copied from the Chinese - some the characters are like the Chinese.
Overall フォーラムにようこそ looks weird. What does it mean?

Saying that Japanese characters are copied from Chinese is like saying that spanish language is copied from Italian. They may be similar, but they are different cultures. You may use different scripts to write japanese, one of them being chinese characters, not the most popular. Japanese characters are easier.

Yes, the Chinese is easer, Do you think distinct to that?, Do you don't believe in our power of scripture?

Well I have to say Chinese IS hard, but in my opinion it's a bit easier than Japanese. Good morning in Japanese sounds like "ohio"
