I'm realizing just how much I miss having a Japanese conversation partner.  

If you're interested, I've been in need of a japanese conversation partner for a long time now, but have been unable to find anyone. feel free to email me if you'd like to discuss the possibility?

I know a Japanese-American girl.  I do not know if she actually speaks it or not though.  She's dating my friend Kurtis.

Though I imagine you could go out to eat at a Japanese place and just strike up a conversation with people and see if anything sticks.

Thank you for the thoughts and suggestions.  I'll see what happens when I get my confidence back.

When I was still studying Japanese at WSU, our instructor took us to a Japanese restaurant where the staff were actually Japanese.  I mistakenly thought that was true for all "Japanese" restaurants.  I found out quick that generally, the front of house is Korean and the cooking staff is usually a blend of American, Korean, Japanese and anyone else who knows the basics of Asian cuisine.  But at least I did make friends with the proprietor's wife at one Japanese restaurant while they were still there.  However, she is Korean and was front of the house and he is Japanese and never left the kitchen as he was head chef.
