Good Luck! And Do Your Best!
FOUND by Ed Huston in Tokyo, Japan
I found this in Tokyo while sitting at an internet station in Narita Airport. Someone will be taking a test...I think.
lo peek in milwaukee
This reminds me of a letter I received from a one-time Japanese penpal in the 6th grade. Very nice.

I'm an English teacher in Japan, and as soon as I glanced at the stationery and the first couple of lines I knew it was written by a Japanese kid. I work at a cram school (test prep) and you can pretty much guarantee that someone will always be taking a test. Having consoled twelve year old girls crying their eyes out, I can only hope this person passed.

Yes, that is strange. I noticed it was written I think it's that they have an interesting and unique shape to thier english writing... I lived in Japan for a while last year..

yeah, i agree this was most definitely written by a japanese student. their handwriting when they write in english is easily distinguishable from the handwriting of a native english speaker, for some reason. not to mention the lack of complete grasp of grammar. "But I don't know that it was sure or not."
or, you could just look at his name...tsugimatsu taiga is blatantly japanese.
