It isn't so hard once you get into the swing of it. My father told me that it's best for me to learn a certain amount of kanji before really getting to the grammar. For better understanding, I think.
Now that I'm more committed to Japanese and have been studying grammar more I can say thats very true.It kinda looks like a banana, but I do recall reading Japan is about the size of Montana.3. Japan is slightly smaller than California and looks like a banana (in my opinion).

And what is wrong with being a geek?
It pays the bills very well thank you B)
Note to self: People who are widely read and can quote from many works, both classical and popular, are geeks.
Don't complain to me that people kick you when you're down. It's your own fault for lying there

Think of the poor, overworked bakemono, spending all their time chasing down kittens to kill, with never a moment off.
