Day 2 in Okinawa
------------------------
It's just like home, but TOTALLY different.
I like it when people around me are speaking in a different language, then I don't have to pretend to listen.
Because I'm half Japanese people here assume I speak Japanese. They ask me something I don't understand, then I either smile and nod or laugh and shake my head. So far, no fights.
Every product in Japan is a smiling cartoon character. EVERY product.
Anime is NOT an exaggeration of Japan. There are tons of school girls, they all giggle, and they're all in love with me.
I feel cool because I look American without trying.
1,000 yen sounds like a lot but it isn't.
We'll that's about it, I'll post more random thoughts as they occur to me.
