My name is Roberto Norton .I am currently a sophomore here and live in Keough Hall. I am studying Business and Political Science. I`m originally from Irapuato, Guanajuato Mexico, but now live in Stockton, California. I`m a huge sports fan( Niners, Kings, Giants). I am taking Japanese because I was accepted into the Tokyo program for next spring semester. My football coach in high school always spoke so highly of Japan that it intrigued me enough to want to learn more about the lovely culture. It seems so exotic and different than the western culture we are accustomed to. Everybody I talk to is always fascinated about my upcoming trip. Most people I talk to are jealous, they think it will be a once in a lifetime experience. I'm really looking forward to going as it will be something totally new.
