Mina-san, we hope you are having a great weekend wherever you are! After we recorded this episode, we received videos from Brody-san, Daniel-san, Danni-san, and Fernanda-san! All AMAZING videos! Thank you to everyone who sent it a video! We have big plans for them!
We have received over 20 videos!!! Once again, our listening community has gone above and beyond the call of duty. We cannot thank you enough. Thank you participants.
Yoroshiku onegai shimasu!
Saturday at 10:40 pm
Wow, I can’t wait to see all the videos and how you’ll use them!
Saturday at 10:42 pm
Solvi-san, yeah, they are amazing! BTW, you have some voice!
Saturday at 10:49 pm
おめでとございます!! Good work with the Podcast Awards!! I just wanted to make a comment. I am not sure whether you saw it but I had made a suggestion a few days ago about having the informal lesson transcript on the LEARNING CENTER. It would really help me. Thanx again!!
Saturday at 11:06 pm
Hmm…I don’t see Our Vickyちゃん’s name on the list of late videos. Hmm…
Oh, btw, did you get the “other” video I sent in?
My wife watched my video on my blog and was yelling out 「助けて!-Tasukete」 over and over.
Oh, btw, I didn’t get an answer in the previous lesson about who’s 携帯 was buzzing.
Well, I haven’t actually listened to this episode yet, so I’ll be back in the morning to check it out.
Sunday at 12:16 am
Danielさん, I think a little bird was trying to get in contact with you regarding video.
So busy this week - haven’t had time to listen to any JP101 stuff.
Hope to catch up some this weekend.
Have a great weekend everyone!
Sunday at 12:44 am
I think this audio blog is a good idea! I hope I can keep up with it.
Sunday at 1:43 am
We we spoke with Hugoさん on Skype the other day, he said his name is actually pronounced ウゴ. The “H” is silent.
Sunday at 1:51 am
I really like the audio blog idea. ^_^
Sunday at 2:43 am
Oooh, so you’re still kinda accepting them. I got all scared about mine. Then I felt sad about not sending one, but I had missed the deadline.
Sunday at 4:21 am
Laura-san,
Just do it!!
Don’t be scared! All of us who sent a video were scared!!
Sunday at 5:17 am
Laura-san, it is true I was very scared when I make my video, as Liz-san says: Just do it!
Great weekend to all! I can’t wait for see all the videos
After the Skype experience, the idea of a audio blog sounds very good, I enjoy the experiencie very much! (Hai Jason-san!)
Sunday at 5:47 am
Props for adding an extra PodCast for week and making it an advanced lesson.
As a suggestion — although I fear copyright may make it difficult — would it be possible to include a reading passage in the learning centre? Perhaps an excerpt from a newspaper on some kind of current event or cultural experience (Yasukuni-jinja, koshien, etc). Perhaps it could include some annotations to help guide the student through the passage (obscure terminology, idiosyncricies of ‘newspaper’ Japanese . . . the latter drives me crazy. I’d love a lesson on that one, pleeeeease.)
Thanks a million,
Sean Somers

Twenty videos! Wow, I never thought you’d get so many. I listened to the track that Sølvi-san posted a few days back so know she can sing. However I also watched the video that Daniel-san posted on his blog & have to agree with his wife’s comment (see Daniel’s post above). The rolling eyes were a master touch. I wish I could be a fly on the wall when you’re splicing that lot together. How is Nanase-san (Chigusa-san) going to find enough tactful comments for all of those?
The blog sounds a great idea, I’m looking forward to it. And seven podcasts a week would be great, provided you can get them all done during the week. You need to take some time off you know or you’ll get all frazzled. I hope everyone (except poor Peter-san & Chigusa-san) had a great holiday.
Sunday at 7:56 am
何だ。All that rush to get the video in, and you can’t even show them for a month.
Well, it’s gonna be great when you are able to show them. I’ve enjoyed the few I’ve seen already.
I trust that the “extra” video I sent will be put to good use.
Sunday at 7:59 am
Oh, btw, I listened to the Cream of the Crop podcast episode with Our Sølviちゃん。 Wow!
Everyone go check out what one of our own community members has done! And be sure to vote early and often for her!:
http://www.creamofthecrop.cc/
Can’t understand why she likes Dr Pepper though. Ugh.
Sunday at 9:58 am
In regard to Sølvi-san’s great music, you can go find the link to iTunes on that site and download the episode!! Very hypnotic and enchanting sounds, Sølvi! Everyone, vote for Sølvi!
Sunday at 3:24 pm
Finally I made my video too. I couldn’t say NO to you guys, but it was terrible thing I did. Like Liz-san said, I just did it.
I’m not going to send to Jppod yet. I need some feed back first. Maybe it’s not worthy to send out overall, at least I could share with you guys to be part of it.
Belton-san, I got your message. Please check your email and PM.
Alan-san, we like to meet you as well please shoot me a PM. It’s fun to be on skype video!!!
We met Kawasaki-san in Japan.
Join us mina-san!!
Sunday at 3:46 pm
Ah Daniel B-san, your video is my favorite one.

Thumbs up for the idea with the audio blog and for making it for advanced learners. I’m really looking forward to it.
Sunday at 11:25 pm
BTW みなさん、
Our Vickyちゃん competed her mission! Woohoo!
You guys are gonna love it!
Sunday at 11:33 pm
Aaa, a whole month
I just got to know that I only have one class in school on thursdays… I have a lot of spare time to study japanese on
Monday at 12:45 am
Vicky-san don’t be scared, my video is not the big thing but I send it anyway, the most important thing is the experience and the fun!
Congratulations for the completed mission!
Monday at 1:35 am
Audio blog is a great idea
I’ll enjoy seeing everyone’s videos.
-I’m going to try to keep up the podcast more now that I’m not as busy with school applications
I got into all 3 schools i applied for so I feel pretty good.

Monday at 1:42 am
John Dyerさん, congratulations! What are you gonna study?
Monday at 6:23 am
Thanks Solviさん。
It is only for my Junior and Senior year of high school actually.
I am studying Mandarin language wise, but I’m not very sure of what else yet.
I’ll be picking out my classes in about a week when I go to the school.

The audio blog sounds promising. I particularly like the idea of just writing/speaking naturally, without making any concessions to varying levels. I’m eagerly anticipating the first installment.
Monday at 12:53 pm
wow over 20 videos
i can’t wait to see them all
Tuesday at 11:58 am
Yeah me too John Dyer I haven’t been here in a week hope I was miss
all do I already finish my high school long ago but I left like 3 years and I would start my freshman now!
I know I’m 22 years old but who cares its never too late to start college! I will learn Chinese and Japanese next because I already know English and Spanish 100%! Joey me too I can’t wait to see the videos that’s why I came back!
