When I was in kindergarten, there was a new girl named Mia who came from Japan, I believe, and I was assigned to be her helper because she couldn’t speak English. Over the few months we spent together, we became really close, and we had flashcards with the characters for an English word, and we could figure out what she was trying to tell us with those. I actually taught her quite a few different sentences and sayings in English after a while. I remember that she would get nosebleeds often, and each time I would escort her to the nurse, they would tell me to leave but she would make me stay with her. At our school we had a field day and me and her were never apart from each other the whole time. (Shown above) After a while, she had to move away with her family, and I never saw her again. I’ve really wanted to know how she’s changed for a very long time now. I know this is a long shot, but I’ve been wanting to talk to her again over some social network because I’ve missed her for a really long time, and I was hoping some of you guys would reblog for me. I can’t remember her last name.
I live in Japan.. so I hope this is a step closer~! <3 諦めないで！Don’t give up.

That awkward moment when you don’t even understand your own language.
Wait.
That’s every moment in Japan.
VIDEO UPDATE: some of the other applicants’ videos have been featured on the news, radio, and very influential blogs in their home countries. One video has over 21,000 views now, another is over 10,000. It’s a marketing position, so the best networkers definitely deserve it. However, there’s realistically no way I can generate that sort of traffic and attention to myself. I don’t know exactly how important views and likes really are, but I know that for the next stage, voting in very important. I don’t know if I will be through to the next stage and eligible to be voted for, but if I am, it doesn’t seem likely that I will win, realistically looking at the numbers. Unless some crazy famous person promoted me, it seems that I’ve hit my popularity limit. haha I’m amazed I got this many views as it is. It isn’t over yet… more information will be coming on the 12th, when country/regional finalists are announced. This was always a longshot, but a so far it’s been a fun experience, albeit a little stressful. So this will probably be the last time I link my video on Tumblr. I don’t want to wear out my welcome haha. If you’d like to watch my video and share it around, feature it on your YouTube channel, feel free. THANK YOU for everything my lovelies. Don’t Forget To Be Awesome.
Hey, John Green! Yo, Hank Green! Attention NERDFIGHTERIA! :)
So there’s this nerdfighter (okay, it’s me) and she believes everyone deserves an education, no matter what country they were born in. regardless of what language they speak or what social class they live in. I’ve traveled all over the world studying and traveling and teaching, to promote global education and bring it to people who need it. Now I’m in a contest, to become a global intern with Education First … to win a 6 month program in Europe to further develop my dream of helping everyone get a chance to study.
I made a Thoughts From Places video, in the style of my true country: Nerdfighteria, to demonstrate why I should be selected. Every view, like, positive comment, and share increases my chances of being chosen.
Would you take 2 minutes and 22 seconds to watch it and then share it? It would be the world to me… and an education for so many others.
THANK YOU! DFTBA, Jenn (from Japan, via America, via Nerdfighteria)
Would you take a moment to give my cool little travel video a look and then share it with your friends? It will help better my chances to become a global intern, working to bring international education and language study to every part of the globe. I’m about 200 views shy of 5,000. Let’s push it as high as we can. Thank you!
Hello fellow Nerdfighters and followers and friends!
Video Update! Just saw I’m about 2,200 views BEHIND the leader to become the Global Intern. In a matter of days, everyone has been so supportive and bumped me up so high. But the nature of the Internet is that things can go viral overnight. Would you please consider sharing my video around with your connections again? The best way is to watch is a couple times a day, spaced out between sever hour intervals. Also, please click the link and watch the video on YouTube, not the embedded file here on this page. I may not win, that’s understandable. There are so many beautiful videos and extremely inspiring, qualified candidates. I just want to give this the best chance I can. So journey with me and watch me video! If you care to share it with your friends, I’d be so appreciative!

Would you please watch and support my video entry for the 2013 EF Global Intern competition? Every view, thumbs up, and positive comment it receives, will better my chances at winning the position. It’s only 2 minutes 22 seconds. And it’s pretty cool (if I say so myself). Thanks friends!
My video to become the EF Global Intern has reached over 3,200 views! ♡ Thank you! Let’s continue to journey together. Keep watching!
