I used to take Japanese lessons. I quit for a year and didn't really study much. I'm starting Japanese again and I talked to my old teacher about not remembering much about the language and she said that it was fine. Now that teacher quit and a new one is there. So I've been frantically looking through old books and websites I used to use. Try http://japaneseculture.about.com. That sight helped me a lot. Plus there are tons of links.
