Perfect. You live in my area. And I can tutor her through her high school Japanese (I hope she's going to one of the high schools in the area that teaches Japanese.).
@Idiot, I believe you mean "ani" (way to refer to one's own older brother)... I assume you're setting up some verboten liebe forbidden love fantasy here.
Haha, thanks for the offer Ashes, but her mother taught all the kids BOTH Japanese and Korean, as well as a bit of Mandarin, from the time they were about 3 years old. So, all of them are fluent in those languages, as well as about 4-7 others (we're a family of polyglots, due to the missus' job with the, ummm, let's just leave it at "government".) However, the *only* sad thing is even though my whole family speaks perfect Japanese, my knowledge of it, however, is somewhat lacking...
Also, @Idiotekque, as you may have noticed by the strikethrough'd clause before the "weeaboo" statement, my youngest (and well, the whole family) is not in any way, shape, or form a fan of Japanese "pop culture"; meaning anime, manga, music, or the like... However, we ALL love Cowboy Bebop and Akira, which, in my opinion, are ones that everygeek can like (compound word intended), so that doesn't really count.
EDIT: @Asheskitty (don't answer this is you don't feel comfortable doing so) but are you out of university, or, if not, which one are you going to? Because the only university that's in the "heart" of Silicon Valley is Stanford (which, if you're there, congrats!), as the rest are more on the fringes of the Bay Area. Actually, wait, even Stanford is a bit on the outskirts... Hmm, I never really realized it before, but it's a bit strange that no universities are "smack dab" in the middle of SV (I guess all the tech giants take up too much space for a place of higher education).
