Q and A
When I returned from Japan recently (don't worry, I'm going back!) I was immediately asked a bunch of questions....many of which were ridiculous.
But I would just like to address some of these questions.
Q: Was it crowded?? A: Yeah, duh. Crowded isn't the word I would use though. There were many more people than I was used to, however they weren't pushing and stabbing each other as much as I was used to...
Q: Was it expensive? A: I would say so. The cost of living is a little higher, but you can eat relatively cheap (if you cook or go to Yoshinoya) and you don't have to worry about a car payment, so thats good. However, an apartment in Tokyo is like 700 dollars a month average and is probably the size of your kitchen.
Q: Did you drink a lot of Sake (Sock-E)?? A: Not really. Who needs osake when you got chu-hai and beer in every other convenience store and vending machine??
Q: Did you get homesick? A: Hell No
There will probably be more of these, these are just the ones I was asked the most.

Some Japanese male fashion, Gyaruo in particular, takes metro-sexual to

Jpop
Hey all,
To keep my sanity, I have been listening to some catchy J-pop music. Here are a few links to some stuff I have been listening to.
Be prepared, some of these artists look a bit gay, but they aren't....as far as I know.

And just remember, when life gets you down - Donmai (don't mind)
