My first notebook entry: introducing myself Konban wa minna! Ware wa Simon-chan. I hope to meet some people who could help me learn more Japanese, since I'm really a beginner! In return, I'll try to help you with English, Dutch or French ^^.

Konban wa minna!    
Ware wa Simon-chan.  

when "ware(われ)" is used as a first person pronoun, it sounds a bit arrogant, so it's almost falling out of use in public occasion. They use "watashi(私=わたし)"or “watakushi(わたし)”instead of  "ware(われ)". And young men can also use "boku(僕=ぼく)".  

reference:   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_pronouns

=>はじめまして、よろしくお願いします。simonです。(hajimemashite、yoroshiku onegaishimasu。
simon desu。)

"hajimemashite(はじめまして)" is used when you meet a person for the first time and introduce yourself.

"yoroshiku onegaishimasu(よろしくお願いします)" means something like  "Nice to meet you".

"simon desu(simonです)" means "I'm Simon".

Hope these help. @_@
