I am here for Friends

About Me

Je m'appelle Ayami [pronounciation: 'a' + 'yummy'; kanji meaning: blessed empress]. I'm a pure Japanese. I was born and raised in Japan, but came to Hawaii back in 1996. I'm living in Hawaii for a long enough time now... I'm open minded, friendly but shy, warm-hearted, kind, curious about every little new thing which I've never seen or experienced. I cannot really express myself in English well, but you will know a little bit about me if you read my profile - journal, comment, whatever - very carefully. It may take a while to become my close friend, but please be patient until I open up my heart!

My Interests

I used to play piano, clarinet, flute, piccolo, and practice calligraphy and Japanese traditional dance for a long time, but I quit all of them. I don't think I can play or dance well anymore... Right now, my interests are: to travel to see the different world, eat out for dinner at an authentic restaurant, drink wine and beer, listen to the music, hang out with my friends, go to karaoke (occasionally), drink coffee and tea, go shopping, and sleep!! Life is short. I'm enjoying every single moment of my life.
