    Hey everyone. I haven't been visiting the forums that much lately (I probably should, considering how I have more freetime nowadays) and was wondering if anyone could give me advice on starting to learn Japanese?
     
    I began with anime, then started watching drama, then started talking to Japanese transfer students (I live in America) and have started to really like Japanese culture. I definitely am not basing this on Japanese media and whatnot even though I do like it. I just, in general, think I'd be happier in Japan- a lot more compared to America. I've become a bit bitter towards living in America lately, not that I hate America.
     
    Anyways, I'd like to start learning. I have some basic knowledge (but not basic enough to know any of the characters or even how to recite numbers above five) and an idea on some things in the language.
    I'd like to learn Japanese, but don't know where to start. There are no Japanese classes anywhere near where I live, and I am unsure what to use as online sources to begin learning.
     
    I'm pretty confident in my abilities to learn it. If I like something, then I learn it quickly. I began taking Spanish classes and ended up hating it. I switched over to French, enjoyed it, and am now currently at the top of my class.
     
    I just need the resources to learn as well as preferably some sort of schedule to pace myself in learning.
     
    Any advice?
