For all you Black women entering spaces in Japan that you are normally not seen in.

Don’t dim your light for those who refuse to see it.
Don’t dim your light for those who treat you as if you were invisible.

You belong.
You deserve to be there.
Keep shining.

That magical moment when you finally find Japanese teachers who - actually correct you, allow you to speak 90% of the time (no lecture style) and make the class truly enjoyable while beneficial to your goals. I haven’t felt this in love with the language since high school. 💕

you’ve finally remembered the difference between 賛成, 賛同, and 同感, and a native hits you with アグリーです

Getting your natural hair colored is a great way to spice up an already bomb cut and show off your individuality— that being said, there are a few mistakes we see quite often, let’s get into 5 of the most common 👉🏾🧵

@lunastudies_ @jpn_tadokuorg Oh thank you so much!

My friend’s gorgeous hair.
Excited to eventually get my hair colored also.

New blonde highlights without bleach. High lift color is a thing.

@theyokohamalife @tinastokyodiary This sounds amazing 🤩

That moment when you finally use 受身形 form properly in class after all the long struggle years of even trying to understand it 😂

(I even asked my teacher if I used it right again JUST to make sure I wasn’t hallucinating)

Honestly I’m not the outdoorsy person but so glad I pushed myself on my company retreat. Went hiking and even horseback riding

Your natural hair IS “birthday” hair, “wedding” hair, “holiday hair”. Your natural hair is for any and every occasion. Period.
