Currently Studying Japanese

I study japanese on my free time, i started about 2 months ago. It has always been a passion of mine to learn japanese since i was younger. I am currently at about a kindergarten level proficiency. I believe japanese is a interesting language to learn simply because im fascinated with the culture and traditions, and they have 3 different alphabets. The first one being hiragana,katakana, and kanji.
