You'll get plenty of safety tips about how to handle the quakes when you get there, but the essentials work sort of like the fire drills: don't panic, exit out your designated escape route and try to make your way to a meeting point, i.e. a public park. Most of the time though, you'll get small little tremors that you aren't even sure are real. ^_^;; I slept through a whole series of them and thought the big Niigata quake was rubber stairs. Then again I'm completely oblivious. Ah heh

Earthquake help good. Hopefully after my first few I'll be okay. AEON was really hyping up their "100% commitment," so I wonder how they would feel if I don't come in to work because I'm still cowering under my futon from trauma. They failed to mention anything about that. T____T
As for stuff with vitamin C in it, how expensive is expensive? I found this site to use as a bit of a reference guide. $8 is indeed expensive for tomatoes, but at the same time 1kg sounds like an assload of tomatoes. Does this mean no $30 apple for MAB?
And for phones...I like your phone. Where'd you get it? PHS ga hoshii! Soshite, anata no abataa ga hoshii yo! *swipes*
Aww. *Patpat* I wish there was some other advice I could offer about quakes, but everybody reacts differently to them. Honestly though, the majority of them aren't large at all - just minor tremors that subside after a couple of minutes. And the fact that the majority of Japanese go on as if they're not happening should settle you a bit. It's when the natives start freaking out that you know something's not right. xD
With regard to the veg again - good lord, that woman's estimates are overpriced. O_O Well, not by much, but I didn't pay 428 for gyouza. I paid 219. It really depends on where you go and how frugal you can get. I can't remember how much a kilo is, but the best thing to do is go to the supermarket and weigh up your veggies to get an idea of how much food we're talking about. The one thing you must always do though, is shop for veggies and fruits in an actual supermarket! Don't ever go to a convenience store, where you'll be paying 500 yen for a fistful of grapes. Granted, they're the best tasting grapes you'll ever eat,
