So now that I am home from Japan and can actually access the internet on a regular basis, I'll try posting some entries I wrote!

Five Ways Japan Taught Me Not to Ask1

That first one takes the cake, for sure. But the dildo machine is a close second. Just. skldjfa;

[bitofpixiedust]

How is naming a dildo "Elf' a good marketing strategy? I wonder.

[tsunayoshi]

It just makes me think "THIS DILDO IS V. SMALL!" ...maybe women in Japan have shallow vaginas? D:

[bitofpixiedust]

exactly why it's the worst name ever! idk, it's actually a huge freakin' dildo

I see nothing wrong with vacuuming your head. I do it daily.

[bitofpixiedust]

No wonder...

I WANT TO GO TO JAPAN EVEN MORE NOW. *desperately looks for money sources*

OH AND THIS: When it rains in Japan, every single person on the street pulls an umbrella out of thin air the moment they feel the smallest drop. Those on bikes are not perturbed--they, too, use an umbrella, sometimes while talking on their cell phones at the same time. It is an incredible display of multi-tasking!

I TRIED TO TELL MY MOM THAT AND SHE DIDN'T BELIEVE ME.

[bitofpixiedust]

IT'S TRUE!!

Sometimes I'd be talking to my boyfriend on the phone while he was holding an umbrella and going home on his bike!!

(PS How is Japanese class?)

[pixisticks]

Where do they store them. o_o They're seriously big umbrellas, and they just pull them out of nowhere! It's crazy! (And how do they keep track of which clear one is theirs XD)

(It was good! I'm out of school now, just working to get up the money to study abroad this coming year. No luck so far...)
