I'm taking a Japanese 101 class right now actually at a community college. ^_^ The class is half over so far, and we've learned almost all the hiragana... so I can read hiragana, but telling you what it means is entirely different. |D After the class ends, I hope to just continue with the text/workbooks I have and teach myself katakana too... and hopefully continue to use it so I remember it all!

I wish I could take it at my college during the fall, but I'd be one credit over the limit, and I would have to pay an extra almost $800 for that 1 credit, and I don't even need it, I fulfilled my language requirement already. x_x;
