I am Manabu, taking my first online class at Santa Monica College starting in the summer of 2022.
Please tell me if you have ever taken an online class at Santa Monica College before.

My online class starts tomorrow, but
I haven't received any notification email from my teacher to my SMC@Email.
I have confirmed that I have already paid for the class via corsair connect.

Maybe I have to log in somewhere else to confirm the class?
I tried looking for it but could not find it. If you know, please let me know ！.

Last year I received PUA （ Emergency Unemployment Compensation ） but received a refund request from EDD.
I sent back an appeal against it, but have not heard anything since.

Has anyone heard anything about a hearing date or anything ？
about the progress?

I won the lottery for the green card, but my case number was in the 19000s... I heard that the first person with a case number to be interviewed will be cut off when the number of applicants reaches the limit. I am wondering if I should consult a lawyer or something.
I would appreciate any advice you can give me ！

My current situation
・ Lottery entry is through a vendor (Green Card J.P.)
・ Current address
・ 2 years in the US on visa(1 year visa remaining)

It has been 5 years since my divorce. I am still fighting for custody of my 7 year old son. I have hired two attorneys. I was honestly frustrated that my wishes were not being met due to cultural differences or nuances in language, and that the situation has not changed. I have no problem with the fact that they are not Japanese, but I am looking for a lawyer who is more willing to listen to my situation and is skilled at using his time effectively. If you have any contacts, please let me know ！ Thank you ！ If you could text me from the number, I can get back to you right away. 408-841-0811

Hello,

I am looking for people to play tennis with in the West LA area. My skill level is probably around 3.5 (average), but I don’t mind any skill level- I’m just looking to have fun!

Most likely the best place to play is Mar Vista park. It’s free, and usually it isn’t too crowded to play. I am also studying Japanese and I am happy to practice Japanese or English as well. I am male/30 years old.

Thank you!

Hi

I am about to get my medical assistant certification and

I am looking for a school that is half online classes and half hands-on classes.
Do you have any recommendations for classes that you have taken?

U.S. Career Institute has online only classes.
I'm not sure if I want to go here because of the good reviews.

I will take a separate class for practical training.


I have heard that SoCal ROC is good, but I have a learning disability and would like to do it online （ ）
at my own pace.


Thank you.

Recently, many people are returning to Japan
most of them are in their 60's or older.
We would like to hear the opinions of those who have decided to return to Japan, or
those who have already done so.
On the other hand, I would like to hear from those who will continue to live here.
My husband is American and I will stay here unless I get divorced. My children are also here.
Also, climate is an issue, and my parents are gone.
I think I'll be patient and only go to Japan on vacation.
But recently I hear a lot of talk about going back to Japan, and it makes me a little nervous.

I had simply longed for the "blue skies of California" since I was a teenager.

After three years and one term as an expatriate, I realized that I would get married, have children, take them back to Japan, where they would start school and where I could not speak Japanese.

He realized that it was impossible to settle down in Japan and decided to quit his job as an expatriate and live in Japan permanently.


I am now "late in life" and my grandchildren have sent me off on a walking pilgrimage to the other side of the world.

Having said that, I would like to walk the path of Shikoku with my current legs for another 10 years.

Thank you for your experience.
I understand that you are u-turn to the U.S. again after returning home. Perhaps you came back to Japan too soon.

I would imagine that you were in a very healthy （ and young ） group at the assisted living facility. That would make them a bad fit.

We are talking about returning home when they can no longer drive. That would be in their 80s. I am in my early 70s now. Right now we are in a house with no problems and neither of us needs care.

We still like the climate here （ and the South Bay ） is hard to leave.
We don't have to worry about the cost of medical care anymore since we are on Medicare.

When the children started school, they could not speak Japanese, and their conversations with their parents were also in English?

Many Chinese and Korean Americans speak Chinese and Korean, but Japanese Americans are not so good.
