Hi there!

Hello everyone, I'm new here. I'm 15 (turning 16 next month) and you can call me Nemu. It's kind of nerve-wracking posting here but I thought I would tell everyone a bit about myself.

I've had a pretty hard time these past few years and things have been kind of difficult at home, and while I won't go into detail here, it's affected me a lot. I also struggle with social anxiety so talking to people in real life is really difficult, so I'm here to find support and the opportunity to connect with others.

I really like listening to music, especially J-pop and vocaloid, and I'm a huge fan of Ado. I've also got into reading lately - I really like literary fiction, and my favourite books right now are Stoner and Earth Abides.

I've also been learning Japanese completely by myself for the past year or so, and I'm super passionate about it. I'm able to watch some anime without any English now which I'm really proud of. I end up yapping way too much about Japanese sometimes lol.

I'm really looking forward to being part of this community ^^

    ppl dont always need advice. sometimes all they rly need is a hand to hold. an ear to listen. and a heart to understand them. 🧸
