Idk how to make japanese friends....

When I get there I wanna make friends, especially with a lady

Yeah, I got that...I think there's a lot of things you need to do before you even think about that though. I haven't dated anyone in over 3 years, I'm too busy.

I'm going to keep at it though, I guess I'll say as long as I achieve my dream someday I'll be happy I just gotta try harder, I still am iffy on college, because of personal preferences, but I'll think about it

Okay...Well, if you actually want it, then you'll get it. College is really only the first step really. I didn't even get back to Japan after study abroad for almost a year after my graduation because it took a while with job interviews and saving money. I don't even see how you can even consider moving to a country like Japan without a 3-5 year plan on how you will get the money, what your college plans are, what kind of degree you will pursue and what kind of company you want to work for. You don't just pick a place in Japan and just hope the country accepts you with open arms. Actually, a lot of foreigners who even have jobs get in trouble with immigration services if they don't have their paperwork just right, if they don't pay all the living taxes, its all very strict. You really should be doing your research.

Either way, if you don't get over this college thing and start planning for your future right away, it won't happen. There are people your age who are already much more prepared and ahead of you, and you're competing with them, just remember that.

Hmm ok, maybe ill got to college and earn the degree, but if anyone asked (besides the people who'll help me move) I didn't, I still wanna get by with out that "free pass" I'm way too used to here

Wait, having a college degree gets you a free pass? Now I'm very confused as to why work is so hard to find around here. I should be set.

Well college degrees don't give you a free pass as in you don't have to work hard, but it seems in my experience people with higher educations get more just because they went to college

This place sure exploded since I was last here...

As for the topic at hand, I'm having a hard enough time finding a job at home. If I can just get a good, steady career, & just make enough for a short trip to Japan one day, I'll be happy.

It opens doors that maybe wouldn't be available to non-graduates. That's all. College graduates still have to make the effort to walk through them. You're not guaranteed anything upon being awarded a degree, i can't tell you how many friends I have who have been to college and work entry-level jobs because there's nothing available in their field where they're at.

Your assumptions about things will not help you at all. You can either start looking into these magical jobs you think you're going to have while you're in Japan, see what their requirements are, and then work toward them as goals, or you can continue to sit there, moan about how all you want in life is to meet a pretty Japanese girl, and piddle around for the rest of your life, Otaku. The choice is yours.

Ok I'll check to see what the requirements are and work to them before I decide to go to college first or not but to say all I want is a pretty Japanese girl is far from the truth, that's just one thing, I just don't like the way college is forced in today's life, since it doesn't actually show how smart a person is

I knew it! You're going to Japan for this!

^cosplay? Maybe that's another piece of the puzzle
