Sorry for being awaay for such a long time. Had a LOT of personal **** to deal with, still going through a load of it. Hopefully it will be all sorted out soon 'cos it's been hell. よろしく.

shaman king no not really, hardly ever hear of it. most heavily merchandised anime or videogame 'series' Dragon Quest? Getting stared at for being British Yeah, all the time. Maybe it's because I wear nothing but Union-Jack clothes, only eat fish and chips and walk about with my...

"Hato sabure"- pidgeon shaped buiscuits. They're too "eggy" for me. Japanese sweets and stuff are crap compared to the stuff in the UK. Aero's here taste sh!te, and Pocky is... well... just crap. Why they're so popular overseas is a mystery. You can have ALL the Japanese sweets if you just...

Sorry for the delay in replying! Been so busy I died 4 times (almost) Pomtry: Yeah I do see many british and american people roaming around japan. Theres a lot. Jayme: I'll get some pictures up ASAP :thumb: Lupus Inu: Kuchizuke - 口付け→"kiss" Samoeraisouni - さも偉そうに→"acting like...

I can be quite expensive but wages paid even it up. I work about 265 days a month and get about 1500 quid for it. I regards to transport, travelling inside Tokyo is a LOT cheaper than it is travelling in London. Restaurants are not all that expensive either, you can get a decent 3-course meal...

For cheap flights to Japan, I'd recomend here: http://www.gendai.co.uk/en/ Depending on the time of year you can get flights for about 350 pounds. As for hotels, if you want cheap the one I work at is out of the question :wink: You might be better renting an appartment for 2 weeks or...

Yeah, sorry I'm still here. Work has been crazy these last few months so I haven't been able to spend as much time as I'd like checking out threads. Will kick myself in the **** and get back into it ASAP. If someone could PM the moderators as soon as something out of order or a flame-war...

Don't really hear an awful lot about it except when there's a new game out. "Dragon Quest" is a LOT more popular.

Why are gay men always the best looking? Is it something in the genes or something?

Green water Most people put stuff in the water- 入浴剤. Theres loads of different... flavours? do bath salts and stuff like that have "flavours"? Oh well, you know what I mean. ALT Be prepared to act like a dick. I've never done that, did teach English for a bit but only 'cos I couldn't speak...

Parapara No, thank god. Olmus, or anyone, if you have any other questions, please ask away- I'm at work all week and I get bored :cry:

Both the sound "L" and the letter "L" don't exist in Japanese. Well, some people say words like "ramen" or "raiyu" with the R sounding like an L.

Nice work :) but, you've got the name wrong. :wink: "Aoi Kageo" would be 青井かげお or 蒼井かげお You've got it as 青かげみ　"Ao Kagemi" Kageo is a male name, Kagemi is female.

The closest thing to "d'ya" would probably using "kai" at the end. e.g. "D'ya know what that means?" "あれ、知ってるかい？" There does seem to be a misconception that Japanese people always mix up R's and L's, but it's nothing like that. There is no L in Japanese, the nearest thing to it in English...

Uni Don't really know much about it but you'd probably have to do it through a uni over in the UK- getting them to sort it out would be a lot easier and I'm not sure that you can make direct applications. These might be of use to you. http://www.uk.emb-japan.go.jp/en/study/mext_postgrad.html...

Never been stopped for my ID. Never been treated in a way that was "racist" So, it's not "normal in Japan" England is a lot more racist then here. Just who have you been talking to?? They must be really unlucky, really stupid, or liars. Yeah, Japan isn't a great place to live, but it's...

No, I didn't even use a computer at that time. I didn't say that I learnt by just listening, it's about talking to people. Takes a while at the start but after that it's easy. No books, no schools, no sites, which gave me a "native" accent, rather than that f***ing irritating gaijin accent...

I think that everybody seems to be missing the point that she was so bloody stupid enough to go into his appartment with him. How can anyone by so naive!?! Just looking at the bloke you can tell he's nothing but a chinpila or some other twat. You can say so much about how every society has...

I learnt to read any write by mailing my wife/friends and watching TV a lot. Once you get going it isn't hard. As, for jobs, you'd have to get a qualification in what is needed ,when an earthquake hits. Without one I doubt you'd have a chance. A lot of people from the States, especially the...
