About the name "Jin"...

[bitofpixiedust]

You all know how to pronounce "konnichiwa" in Japanese, right?

Kon-knee-chee-wa

The "i" letter stands for the sound "ee." Naturally, this system of pronunciation carries over into other words, which leads me to....

PSA: Jin is pronounced "jean/gene," not as "gin."

I promise.

I'm so excited for you to go to Japan, btw! What city again?

[pixisticks]

Tokyo! :D I'll be right in the heart, too--right near Shibuya and Roppongi and all those awesome places. ♥

That'll be so fun!! You can hit all the bars and clubs in Roppongi!
Find Koyama's family's ramen shop!!!!! I hear they have fantastic miso ramen

XD I don't know where it is, but I'll definitely look out for it! ♥ ♥ ♥ And yes, that is exactly my intention~ they don't need to know I'm only 19! I don't want alcohol anyway. XD

You know, the only time I was ever carded was when I was at a conbini.
Sometimes they might card you tho just to be sure, mainly because you're a foreigner. Unfortunately it's hard to conceal.

XD Nice. I've always been told I look older than I am, so hopefully I can pass off for 20... but all I really want to do is stalk Jin dance. :x
