Wow! Thanks so much, everyone!!
I guess I should really work harder on my japanese. All I know are "hi", "sorry", "thank you" and "goodbye", and those online translators are not of much help either... But I really appreciate your help a lot!

Niko, I'm not a civvy, I am stationed here.
Unfortunatly, I have come to have a general dislike for americans seeing the way they act around here....
yeah, us americans can get pretty unruly there. I remember when i used to be there, all E-4's and below were not allowed to own POV's. (although i did have one. ) BTW, which base are you at?

Wow, another person who used to be in the same boat as me ^.^
I'm at camp foster, and I'm at BNS-1 (if you know what that is... I work with the BN SgtMaj and CO).
At the moment, E-4's and below can not own POV's, OR stay out past midnight, though since my extension went through, also did my POV package and my card saying I can stay out past midnight.
Americans get too unruly, I try to stay away from them. I've got about 2 or 3 good friends that I will go off base with, and only 1 at a time. I can honestly say I've adapted to the culture and have more experience on the island that anybody I currently know, except for the guys that have been here 3 years or more. Either way, I'd like to talk to you more about your experience on Okinawa, so if you get a chance, please e-mail me at

hmmm... i don't really think that it's because they are racist.
it's probably just for the simple fact that playing with someone
who can't speak Japanese (or any other language) would take
so long to do anything. I'm sure that there are American
(or Canadian or British etc...) players out there that would do
the same thing if a Japanese person that didn't speak English
out there wanted to play with them as well.
Calling someone a racist when they aren't is a very serious
issue and the word shouldn't be used lightly.
Try standing in the other person's shoes before you judge them.
Sorry if my comment comes off rude, but I don't think
accusing someone of being racist should be done so randomly.

Hi
I will be having a roleplay presentation due next week. I had a few sentences that Im not sure how to translate it to Japanese. I would appreciate if anyone could help me out.
COrrect me if im wrong:
All in casual speech
1. Shoot ! THe kitchen is on fire --- ���!�@�䏊�Ђ��N�����āB
2. Smells so good !
3. It smells bad or it stinks --- �Ђǂ��L����B�@����Ȃɂ����I
4. With this "product", I can make this smell disappear .
5. No wonder u smell so bad.
But I'm curious, did you only register to get answers to your presentation/roleplay?
Hi . No, that wasnt my intention. You can search my previous post, my name was minibaby or minibaby24. I forgot my password and the email that I registered many months ago, so I had to registered a new one.
On my previous posts, I asked how this sentence is translated in Japanese " my father used to help take pictures of me when i was a child"
Just to proof to you that Im not what u think I am
