About me

I am a sith (lord). Don't call me (or any of my stormtroopers) "foreigner". (It is totally meaningless in space.) My friend Boba Fett (the bounty hunter) will have you fed to the Great Pit of Carkoon, which is a (live) monster in a big (retro) hole (on Tatooine). I am (only) answerable to the Emperor, and (if you know your movies), I single-handedly (literally) threw him into a big
(techno) hole (on the (now defunct) Death Star).

Get lost (on Dantooine, which my (other) (ex-)friend Governor Tarkin destroyed from his (messy) office on the Death Star)! I'll stretch out my (kinky) glove and use (the dark side of) the force (which is (infinitely) more powerful than the other side, (which doesn't even have a name - I call it the poofy "default" side)) to crush your esophagus (and you will be asphyxiated).

If you call me or any other white people the following terms then we cannot begin, nor continue, any friendship: foreigner, 老外,外国人,洋人, 外国朋友. I also don't want to enter into any discussion with anyone trying to convince me that these terms are not derogatory or that I don't understand these terms because I don't understand Chinese or China's "5,000 year history". My opinion on this issue remains unchanged whether or not other white people consider these terms derogatory.

依我看,国际象棋仍然是我们这个世界上最盛行的游戏 (我知道,其他一些户外的游戏也很流行,比如说: 足球,篮球,等等)。 在台湾他们把国际象棋称为西洋棋。可是最好还是用最常用的词汇,就是“国际象棋”。 棋子由王,皇后,象,马,车和兵组成。 每一个格子都有自己...

Testimonials from My Friends

セフィロス
It's taken me too long to get round to doing this, and it feels kind of out of the blue, but oh well. 雅各 is a great man whose attitude to life serves as an example for us all. As you can tell by reading his journals, he is a devoted student, but more importantly, he is kind, witty, and he is one of the few people that remind me what potential the human race has for love and wisdom. Studying on this site is meaningful because of people like 雅各!
Philomena
雅各's self-introduction is impressive,right? If you wanna see a wider world,come here with 雅各!

雅各 ( I ♥ יהוה‎ )さんの学習態度は真摯で礼儀正しく、人格的にも尊敬できる方です。彼の言葉使いはとても上品で、日頃の私の言葉使いはいかがなものかと反省させられます。
Nina
雅各 ( I ♥ יהוה‎ )さん is such a hardworker and also very sincere person, as everyone knows. I'm always impressed by his enthusiasm for studying and thoughtful mind. I'm honored to be one of his friends:-)

 雅各さんの文章を見ていると、とても熱心に日本語を勉強されているなあと感心します。まじめで紳士な方なんだなあと想像できます。私は英語を勉強しているのですが、雅各さんの書く日記の中に英語も含まれているので、とても参考になります。特に、日本語の難しい言い回しを勉強されているので、上手に説明できる方は、ぜひ添削をしてあげてください。
