Hello! So I am a teen heading into high school and I’m debating what college I should go to after. A friend’s mother told me that I should continue my education in Japan and I don’t think that’s a bad idea. She said that education is better there and is cheaper for international students. I also happen to speak a little Japanese (and may be fluent in the near future) and have been greatly influenced by Japanese customs and culture (anime, documentaries, historical stuff, etc.). What do you all think? I live in America and considering that education and life is what I’m familiar with here, I’m still quite eager to try to study in Japan since I’m a huge Japanophile (someone who loves Japan very much). お時間咲いていただきありがとうございます､みなさん！

こんにちは。もうすぐ高校生になる十代です。卒業した後どんな大学に進んだらいいか、いろいろ話し合っているところです。友達のお母さんは、日本で教育を受け続けてみたらどうかと話してくれました。悪くないかなと思っています。彼女によれば、日本の方が教育の質が良いし、外国からの学生にとっても金銭的に楽だということでした。私はたまたま日本語が少し話せますし(近いうちにペラペラになっているかも)、日本の文化や風習(アニメやドキュメンタリー、歴史関係など)にもかなりの影響を受けているんですよね。どう思いますか?　私はいまアメリカに住んでいるのでアメリカの教育や生活に慣れていますが、それでも日本が大好きなので日本で学んでみたいという思いがけっこう強いです。

Incidentally, in your sentence, "咲いて" should be "割いて." "咲く" is used for flowers.

バラが美しく咲いている。
The roses are in beautiful bloom.



If you're asking us about what we think...

There are a lot of ALTs (Assistant Language Teachers) from the United States who became interested in Japan because of anime and manga.
They are very welcome, and seem to enjoy teaching English in Japan.
They don't necessarily have to graduate from a college in Japan, but if you come to Japan earlier, you will learn what Japan is like and the language better.
There are many Japanese people who are shy, but most of them actually want to make friends with people from overseas.
You also have many other options when it comes to jobs. As long as you are interested in Japan, I think this country is interesting enough for you to study.
