The music with your animations is so good! From your tumblr bio it seems like you compose it yourself? Is there anywhere to listen to all your soundbits/songs or like a tag for em?

thank you !!! i have most of my music here!!! (though most of it is a bit old)

Hey, so I saw your SUF posts and saw that you’re a EFL teacher. I’m a native English speaker and I just applied to a program to teach English in Japan, but would you be willing to tell me about your experience as a teacher there? I may also get placed out in the boonies because I have relatively decent Japanese (some applicants for the program have none) and the time I spent in Japan was mainly in cities (study abroad). If you don’t want to talk for whatever reason, no worries!

In my personal experience being able to speak Japanese is absolutely not a factor in placement (if you’re talking about the JET Program, which I presume is the case given that you have no idea where you’re going lol). 

Actually, from what I’ve heard and seen so far - having a driver’s license is WAY more of a factor in getting placed in the middle of nowhere, because most of the time, you will need to be able to drive to get around. Conversely, larger cities actually DON’T want to bother with car stuff for their foreign workers and prefer people who won’t/can’t drive. 

(Obligatory ESID disclaimer.)

I’ve actually talked about my life in Japan quite a bit, I think? I recommend checking out the #japan tag on this blog. Overall I’m down to answer any specific questions but given my terrible tendency to over-share if I start writing, I may well be here until the novel of my life is finished.

Calligraphy request (if you’re up for japanese): 弱さを知れば人は強くも優しくもなれる (If you wanted the translation: if people know their weakness, they can become stronger and kinder. If you want the transliteration or more of the full quote shoot me a message! And if you don’t want to do calligraphy of this no worries lol, please enjoy your art at your own leisure.)

i tried lol

kiowa, i've been rapidly scrolling through my dashboard and i saw you mention starlord learned sunny day or something and i was like ???? fucking avengers endgame spoilers??? already??? it has been a long day. have fun with pokemon

ROFL I would NEVER spoil a movie! 

Starlord is my Lanturn in Reborn and he’s a crucial part of my strategy as I take on this gym for the 86th time.

natsusume replied to your post: How feasible do you think it’d be to play Twilight...                    Fun fact: TP was initially meant for the gamecube but was delayed in its release so it was first sold for the wii. The gamecube version was released later despite being the initial intended console     ------- YEAH THAT SOUNDS MORE TO IT! I always remain in awe of TP graphics at that time??

Tbh i didn’t see the post about music recs, but if you like rock with serious meaning in the lyrics, check out rise against. They’ve sung about all kinds of stuff including hurricane katrina, lgbt issues, and environmental protection. Plus they sound great. If you were looking for j-rock, i’d say give asian kung fu generation a listen and maybe uverworld. Sorry to further clutter your inbox!

hey no worries!! i just made a post about not wanting to have sex in new songs i find hhahah i just want chill songs with g-rated lyrics nothing too heavy

and i’ve listened to asian kung fu generation and uverworld too!! (bcos anime) and i’ve listened to a few songs of rise against and they are good too!!

natsusume replied to your post “guess who has two thumbs and will have eaten spaghetti for the past 5...”

i read this as you having eaten spaghetti 6 times in a single day and was concerned bc a full serving of spaghetti 6 times in one day might give you and upset tummy

i mean, i wouldn’t necessarily put something like that beneath me
