Another one of those threads :)

[Ghostlsyunny11]

It's another one of those thread where I ask people about Japan and whether I'll be able to make it in Japan or not. I'm still a highschool student, I've been working hard getting above-average marks in school.

I've been trying to see my oppurtunities in Japan. A heap of people telling me that the Japanese are racist and that Japan is not a good country to go to. As foreigners who live in Japan, what is your opinion regarding this?

Also what Job oppurtunities does Japan have?

Browsing around this forum I saw that many people complained that without a degree, there is no hope. Luckily being a student, I still have the oppurtunity to grab hold of a degree. Infact, I'm already looking for scholarships to study in Japan, but I'm struggling to learn the language. Can you give me any advise regarding learning Japanese. I bought Rosseta Stone which , in my opinion miserably fails at teaching Japanese.

The kind of people who say that do not understand Japan, and/or perhaps have never been here.

When I lived in New Zealand, I used to know a few Koreans and Chinese that hated Japan. There is still a lot of hatred among the non-Japanese Asian community overseas toward the Japanese. They are the racists - hating Japanese people because of what some of their grandparents/great grandparents did during the war.

In Japan you will, on occasions, be treated differently and discriminated against - but that won't be because they hate you, it is because they are being overly cautious of you.

Wow, it seems like I'm going to have a hard time "fitting in". I already suck at socialising with people. I prefer to keep quite in groups because people think I'm boring whenever I open my mouth. Seems like I'll forever keep on living my introverted boring life... *sigh*.

Lonely, introverted trolls are the worst kind. Can't you join a troll club, or something...?

Why do you think that I'm trolling? What, do I have to some kind of a super cool b!tch to visit Japan? This is perhaps the first forum ever in which when you try to be nice to people, they come and start telling you sh!t.

Who are you talking about? I bet you think I'm a troll as well, right?

Come on people I'm asking for information from people who have this type of experience, please help me with this.
