Joy, I am so glad I found your channel! My initial reaction was: "no way there's another black girl in Japan doing exactly what I want to be doing right now!" lol. I am SO here for your journey so keep it up and keep posting so I can live vicariously through you lol! 😌👏🏽
This is really calming even with the little white noise in the background lol. I really like you voice! I'm a black girl in high school rn and I'm self studying Japanese! I love to see other black ppl learning Japanese/ going to Japan. I think I might wanna study there or just live there when I'm older. Good luck on all your endeavors!
Thank you for sharing!! I’m going in a couple of weeks so I’m super scared but this really helped me know what was gonna be happening like at the beginning
Loved your video. We are in the process of moving to Japan now. I know learning Japanese is going to be a huge obstacle for me, because I have to also work a job remotely in the US. I envy you that you are able to attend language school. I would like to, but I am not sure yet if I can afford the time. But I will definitely attend if I can do it.
Wow that so cool I wanted to go to korean language school but was to worried it wouldn’t be for me so I’m gonna take the self study route until it’s time for me to take the proficiency test. It’s also interesting to see how different housing is in Japan and Korea I’m living in a goshiwon which is slightly bigger than your share house room but I have a personal shower as well.
I know how you feel about the small space. We moved from a 3,000 square foot home in Fresno, to a 1,000 sq foot space in Irvine, to a 550 sq ft place in Atsugi. The small space sucks. But smaller homes seem to be the norm here. There are lots of space saving devices and techniques. Try to spend more time in coffee shops and department stores and parks and other public places. Try to focus on the positives and the many wonderful things that Japan has to offer.
I love your videos so much! because I am going to be an exchange student going to Japan next year and I'm so excited :) but I'm going to Japan for the summer to learn Japanese and I'm so happyyyyy!!
Keep it up young sister! I am in the same fight. Learning Japanese is hard, but the journey will be worth it! You are in Japan, immerse yourself1 Enjoy it1
So excited to watch your journey! I myself have been studying Japanese on and off for so long but after my second trip there recently O think I'm ready to finally take the plunge. Cant wait to see your progress!!!!
Hi Joy! I just recently came across your page and I am so thankful! Can you please tell me how you found your language course & how you moved to Japan? I am very interested in doing the same thing.
so excited for your learning in japan! i've been looking up for classes in jp as well but my finance don't allow me to. May I know how much is the whole course?
Hello! I just found your account~ can you do what's in my bag and/or a day in my life as a japanese language student? I'm really wondering what Japanese language students bring to school 😭 do they bring huge bags? What stuff do you need in school: notebook? What type of notebook? Pen or pencil? Do you bring books? I only see students talk about general things/school life in Japan but not information like this 😭 I hope this isn't weird and gets noticed 🫶🏼🫶🏼
Man. This is amazing to see a fellow black woman do exactly what I want to do! Congrats and keep it going. Do you know if language schools have an age limit? I’m 27 lol
There’s A LOT of students in my class that are 26 and over but I’m not exactly sure what the age limit is. I was actually so surprised because I thought everyone was younger!
I’ll definitely make a video talking about it but I feel like it’s too early in my experience to know exactly. My spending has been sporadic and inconsistent so i’ll definitely talk about it when I find my rhythm.

I used GoGo Nihon to help me apply for my school and housing! I’ll definitely make a video about it
That's nice, what's the name of your language school

Hi did you need jlpt n5 for the student visa
私は勉強ことに3月時間しました so how was the cost of JPLS and you cost total living condition and the money you have left to go out ( like i do bars )
I’ll definitely make a video talking about it but I feel like it’s too early in my experience to know exactly. My spending has been sporadic and inconsistent so i’ll definitely talk about it when I find my rhythm.
how much money did you need to go to language school in japan?
How long are you studying abroad for?
Until the beginning of July
Are all of your share house members foreign or are any Japanese?
There’s only one Japanese person in the share house
@@justforjoy oh cool. Any other Americans?
my roommates are kinda like ghost. I never see them but I know they’re there😭. So I haven’t really had the chance to talk ask my other roommates.
