Hi everyone!
Wow! I was really surprised to know that there’s a website for Filipinos around here. Feeling ko nasa Pinas ako when I read all your posts. I couldn’t help myself, haha, at muntik pa kong ma late sa work dahil sorbrang naaaliw akong mag-basa, got hooked already. Been here in Japan for 2 months now. Sa Tokushima, Shikoku ako, isang napakalayong probinsya from Tokyo.
My Nihonggo is almost nil kaya naman I’m really having a hard time dealing with the locals. Buti na lang at may gantong website.
Konti lang ang kakilala kong Pinoy dito. Minsan pag nakikita ko sila, di kami makapag-usap ng matagal kasi lagi silang nagmamadali dahil mahigpit na raw sa Immigration ngayon. Yung iiba naman busy sa pag-aalaga ng tsikiting nila. Wala tuloy akong makasama maglamyerda pag off ko. Meron akong officemate from France pero shempre mas gusto kong kasama kapwa ko Pilipino, mas masaya.
To a meaningful and fun-filled friendship, CHEERS!

Hi halloween!
Welcome aboard. We’re pretty much in the same boat. 'Been here for two months and no knowledge of Nihongo either.
Busy si commander Nick sa pag a-update sa site kaya naunahan ko na s’ya sa pag welcome.
Enjoy your stay! :japanese:
P.S. Once the site is updated, don’t forget to read the golden rules here in TF.

welcome to TF, halloween. i think you’re too early, hallow’s eve is still months away.
ingat sa pagbabasa dito sa forum, nakaka-addict talaga dito. baka masisante ka pa sa trabaho.
how’s Tokushima? i’ve been there once to visit a friend. drove all the way from Sendai during golden week several years ago. i remember how it was so warm there, it was around 26 degrees in May and when we got back to Sendai it was 11 degrees. we also visited the four prefectures there and ate wonderful sanuki udon at an udon shop which was just part of a house right in the middle of the nowhere. have you participated in the awa-odori?
anyway, as i always say, read, participate & contribute. but most of all, enjoy!

Hi! Maraming salamat sa inyong warm welcome.
Ganda girl, sa Ehime ka pala. I stayed there with a Filipino couple for almost a month. Kaya lang she already left for the States dahil don na sha nagtuturo.
Kakalungkot dito. Eto na lang kasiyahan ko sa buhay ang magbasa ng post dito sa TF. Minsan pag may nakita akong interesting books, basa2 ng konti minsan naman nood ng mg videotapes. Recently, nabasa ko yung Memoires of a Geisha at nag-enjoy nman ako at ngayon a book with different short stories, ang title ay A girl’s Night In. Nakakaaliw ding panoorin ang TV series na 24 kaya lang 2 episodes pa lang napapanood ko dhil pinahiram lang sa ken videotapes. Mag-inquire pa ko kung pano mag-pa member sa video shops dito.
ANg nakakamiss kasi eh yung may kakwentuhan kang mga people with the same brand of humor at kapalitan ng kuro kuro at opinyon. At dito lang sa TF nagkakaron ng katuparan ang mga yon (Naks, ang makata ko nman).
To a meaningful and fun-filled friendship, CHEERS!
