Make a fool of yourself because it doesn't really matter - slurping is normal and encouraged, so just bottoms up on the noodle bowl - you are totally allowed to look like a pig and shovel food in from the edge of the bowl...It becomes survival - but I'm pretty good at it now...but don't ask me to pick a moving fly with one - cause that'll never happen...;)
So, Japanese people are so courteous - they even get gifts when on vacation for those who werent' able to go - it's called a Omeyagi - and it's a gift for those when you return that is important some how to the area you were in - usually food - and is shared by everyone who wasn't able to make trip with you...So, basically it's like saying - haha you missed out - here's what you get instead...:P
TV here is hilarious considering what's available and actually watched....
So at night there are really only three options of things to watch - game shows with weird activities, new programs with very boring news or kittens, yes kittens - they have 30 minutes programs that show cute little animals all over the TV screen - it's completely pointless, there are no ads and everyone goes "kawai-i" every 5 seconds, which means cute. Most days I wanna throw up in my mouth a little bit - but they are cute to watch - better than horrible American news of death and destruction..
OMG - hairdressers listen up! You will be able to make a fortune if you are really good at coloring hair in Asia...Here's why..;)
So, I was sitting on the train and in walks in this 80 year old grandmother of like 30 children with her burberry raincoat on, little umbrella and her daily market shopping - but wait - the woman had bright blue hair! Now at first I was thinking it was just a crazy rock and roll grandma and totally wanted to applaud her - but as the day wore on, I counted at least 10!
It's taking the term "blue wash" to a whole new level! So, boys get your little dye kits out and practice on some asians! If you can get that awful blue out - Asia will love you!
