I ask these questions in no particular order, but all with equal gusto. I am intrigued.

Funny you should ask... I just sent a PM to Chika because he has "JAPAN" in his location.
I went on holiday to Japan two years ago, and I sort of "fell in love" with the country. I learned a few words of Japanese and had great fun trying my newly learned phrases out on the locals (with little success though).
I studied Information Technology and got my bachelor degree three years ago now. Now, after having worked for three years I came to realize that I don't want to be stuck in the Netherlands for the rest of my life, plus that I have not yet fulfilled my greatest dream: study abroad.
So, three months ago someone I work with motivated me to start taking steps in fulfilling that dream. I got back from my holiday in the USA last week, and I'm now actively searching for information on how to enroll in a Japanese university and how to get the financing done.
I have so far found some interesting studies in Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka, but before I can even think of enrolling I need to get this Japanese Language Education done and pass the EJU examination.
Just like I boldly asked Chika, if you know a place there where I could work part-time or freelance, I'd love to hear, and although it will probably take me the better part of the year before I have everything figured out and arranged it can't hurt to take out these kind of financial risks as early as possible.
