01. Leave me a comment saying "Interview me."
02. I respond by asking you five questions of (possibly) very intimate and creepily personal nature. Or maybe not so creepy/personal.
03. You'll answer the questions on the interview, either in reply to the interview itself or as a post to your own LJ (that I can read), or both.

1) When and how did you get interested in Manga and Anime and how did you get to studying Japanese from that point?
2) If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?
3) What is the thing thing you're looking forward to the most in your stay in Japan?
4) Will you wear your nails more often the way you wore them in London? XD
5) About the time we first met: What was your first impression of me? (Stupid question, I know^^ But our story's kinda funny, I guess^^)
1) When and how did you get interested in Manga and Anime and how did you get to studying Japanese from that point?
I read my first manga around 7th grade I think. We watched this TV series and my friend said: "You know, there's a comic as well." But the comic was a manga of course. First contact. But it needed Digimon for me to become, uhm, kinda obsessed *g* I read many manga afterwards, scanlations and printed, downloaded and watched various anime. Around 2004 I discovered dorama. Within all you find traces of Japanese life, the different customs and all. And itsu no ma ni ka I wanted to know more and more about it. When it came to choosing a subject for university... the only thing I could imagine doing for life a while was/is Japanese ^^ And I'm happy I decided to talk my parents out of everything else they had chosen for me ^^
2) If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?
Hn, that's difficult. Everything I didn't like about me is in the state of being changed right now so... But I guess my mood swings aren't that easy to overcome. That sometimes the smallest trigger is enough to push me from happy to deeply depressed. So I guess that'd be my choice ^^ (Which includes me worrying about things I can't change anyways!)
3) What is the thing thing you're looking forward to the most in your stay in Japan?
Hopefully being able to talk lots and lots in Japanese XD Walking through the various parts of Tokyo I saw so often in dorama. I dunno, perhaps just being there ^^ And yes, going shopping in the Johnny's shops and perhaps going on one or two concerts as well ^.~
4) Will you wear your nails more often the way you wore them in London? XD
No ^-^' It was fun but too girly for my taste XDD
5) About the time we first met: What was your first impression of me? (Stupid question, I know^^ But our story's kinda funny, I guess^^)
*g* Yeah, that's something, isn't it? I remember when we met in the hall all of you just looked at me and said hallo akwardly but after you asked whether I had an lj and you knew my name there, you were the first to glomp me *g* Telling me you had stalked my journal (but that was some hours later, wasn't it?). The first hours that day were people/information overload but I thought Luna really fitted you ^.^
