You know you're in Japan when...

... a buck for a little can of tea or pop is considered cheap. Or 17000円 for a used PS2 looks like a steal. They're not kidding when they say that Tokyo is the most expensive city in the world to live in. And you know why it's also one of the most populated? It's totally worth it. Quite a small price to get into heaven, if you think about it

A volvic... it's something I hang off my ear... you kinda have to see it. It's kind of a little plushie elastic earring... thing. I haven't been wearing it recently, though, the novelty wore off.

Sarah told me once about the year she lived in Japan. She went to a public school, and while she was waiting in the office for her paperwork to be filled out and stuff, a line of Japanese kids formed outside the door, all waiting to see her. She said she felt like a celebrity.

Sounds like you're skipping through your money. Be careful, it vanishes fast.

What the heck is a Volvic?

Volic? my guess...
