Hello! My name is Erika Shannon. I'm originally from Heidelberg, Germany, but right now I'm a student at the University of Notre Dame.

My father works for the government, so my family moves around a lot. We've been stationed in Japan twice, but since I've lived in Germany for so long, I've lost most of my Japanese speaking ability. I'm currently studying Japanese because I'd love to go study abroad, plus I'd like to improve my speaking skills and learn to read/write.

So far we've learned hiragana. I'm nervous about starting katakana though, because it seems harder to learn. These first three weeks have gone by so fast. My class is great and I've already made some amazing friends :)

More to come later! じゃあまたね~
