It's not quite time for the heater, but definitely no need for an aircon anymore.

Does anyone else find that the more you are in Japan, the more you 'forget' things about your own country - or even didn't know in the first place. I just seem to get asked so many questions about my home country that I get stumped on. Or is it just me being not too bright?

neversummer- take care there now, will ya! Sore bottom and scraped elbows is the most I have had

Another interesting history lesson. I take more notice than when I was at school

Sports should be banned, nothing but trouble.

I had a boyfriend at college who was a real looker - but he could do an amazing gurn. It transformed him from this handsome dude to a cartoon character in seconds. A sight to see.

Yeah getting up before 5am sounds like a seriously flawed idea to me.

Anyone any tips for good software/hardware I need? I just feel like a budding musician and heard theres some killer apps you can get out there that let you produce some amazing sounds if you have the slightest bit of creativity and music inside ya.

The reason is the date.

Looks amazing!

I think that Michael Moore just comes across as being extreme for the sake of it.

Nice, like the sound you got there.

Good points there miteyak. Kenta, sorry but the one Japanese wine I have tried was awful. What are the best Japanese wines?

Feel better now do you?

My water is a rip-off. I pay over 10000 yen a month for water supply and sewerage together, which I think is outrageous.

Bad weather generally for summer here, although some will be happy about it. As long as it doesn't affect the chances of a good winter snowfall, I'm OK with it. I read somewhere that people over in France are dying of overheating with a serious heatwave hitting them and other parts of Europa.

Parts of Nihongo I have most problems with? Most of it, most of the time

Ocean. So how's Shikoku then? Settled in yet?

These are trading cards like these Pokemon things that my friends children have asked me to get right?

One of my fairly good Japanese lady friends (not g/f) recently told me that she has had 2 abortions when she was 19 and 21. I was quite shocked and saddened to hear here tell me, not such a big deal it seems at all.

I've been asked for some Japanese pokemon trading cards or something. Not a clue what that is

Me too. On the PC at 3am.

Depends on age. For mums, anything that is delicate and colorful and oriental looking seems to go down well. And some lovely cakes.

So he's going for Gov'ner then Just heard it on the news

Looks like it may be a common problem - has happened to me too, very annoying.
