So those are the first 5 letters of the Hiragana writing system. It's short but it actually took a really long time because I had keep switching between the Japanese keyboard and the English one...

I've actually memorized these already. If you want help memorizing them, I would recommend these apps: 
-Kana Drill
-Kana School
-Learn Japanese!!
(Disclaimer: I'm not really sure if these apps are on Android but these ARE on IOS. Also, Kana drill can also be used on PC.)
