Do you generally like living there? How long has it been?

 

You really are the pickiest eater

 

I feel like I would like it, I just never went for it. I'm v tempted to tbh. It does stir a little anxiety though not gonna lie haha

 

good morning

 

How did you know where to look Chase!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Ichiran is amazing, one opened in NYC last year or the year before and I went. Matcha beer is

 

We have our ways

 

Love udon! And it's oden season in Japan bet you're finding all the great warm and comforting foods

 

I'm v proud of myself, the past couple days i've gotten up at 5:30 (!!!!!) and gone to the gym. I have wanted to do this for so long but never put it into action and now that I have it's really not that hard. In turn I also go to bed around like 10:30 PM like a normal adult which is good too. Really hope I keep it up, going to the gym in the morning really sets the tone for my day in the most positive way possible.

 

That's awesome!! I'm trying to get back into working out cause it's so good for mental health but getting past that lazy hump is hard. Getting up before work and doing all that is a pretty big accomplishment

 

Generally speaking yes! I’ve been here sinceeee last March. I think because I’m a coward, the change in lifestyle would’ve been far more daunting had I not met my gf at training. Idk if I’d have stayed. But I’m really glad I did. Learning basic conversational Japanese is exciting cos they’re so appreciative of you trying.

In my experience everyone has been lovely. It’s super jarring at first because, especially in rural areas, you’re essentially famous just for being a foreigner. As a white guy who they definitely don’t see much of, everybody looked at me and approached me to ask really, really random questions. Like what my blood type is??? (Some girls ask that in a compatibility kinda sense). If you’re really self-conscious like I am, that can get a bit much sometimes because eyes are always on you no matter what you do.

Overall I’d say I’ve had a really positive experience. My only negatives have been from a few instances where I’ve witnessed Asian racism towards other Asians through my gf. That can be kinda intense. But there’s dickheads everywhere.

This place is MAD convenient is my take. I’d ramble on and on, and I can in DMs if you want way more detail, but I’ll try keep it ‘brief’ for the thread lol.

 

Curry udon IS. THE. BESTTTTT omg. I’m in Kagawa which is famous for udon too. To die for. And cheap af.

 

Ugh Lisa it works wonders for my mental health. I had been just getting up early to walk before work around my condo first, so I got used to getting up around like 6:30 for that and then I just kept getting up a little earlier and earlier. The lazy lump is so hard and I still have to like sit down at night and commit to the fact that im going to wake up when my alarm goes off in the morning haha. I really feel so much more balanced and happy from doing it though I just hope I keep it up. I always fall off. Just gotta take it a day at a time. It's very vital to my happiness and motivation.

 

Back to work today. Time to try and not cry at my desk.

 

Love curry anything. Japanese version of curry is so different but I love it so much. I've made it a few times using the curry cubes I get at the Asian grocery. We also have a Go! Go! Curry in NYC and I had their curry with chicken katsu at a Japanese food festival and I love it. Do you have a preference for Japanese curry chains?

 

You can do it!

 

I'm very happy for you! Don't beat yourself up if you take a day here and there these things happen and sometimes you need a break. But those benefits will only continue to get better and I'm glad it's working so well for you! Hope your anxiety has been better lately

 

I’m sorry about your unfortunate locker room experience today.

 

Do you know your blood type? I sure don't know mine

It was always weird when I would buy Final Fantasy games and stuff and that was listed in the character bios (along with the fact that the characters are all 15 or 16, maybe 21 for the wise mentor character)

 

Dude, I usually just never go into a gym locker room in Florida because you can just show up in gym clothes and leave and no need for changing or anything but its 40 degrees out today! So I had to wear a coat, the second I turned a corner into a locker room a bare ass old dude looking right at me.

It happens 95 percent of the time I walk in a gym locker room its fucking insane.

 

People with blood type O people are outgoing, energetic and social. They are the most flexible of the blood types. They easily start up projects but often have trouble following through because they give up easily. They are flighty and not too dependable. O types always say what's on their mind. They value the opinion of others and like to be the center of attention. Also, people with O blood are extremely self-confident.

Type O, the most "average" blood type, is considered the best type in Japan.

Quatre, Sailor Moon, Saito Hajime, Kamiya Kaoru, Tamahome

lmao I don't think this is me

Except the giving up easily part

 

Omg dude I feel sooooooooooo much better after getting my teeth handled. Just had to get temp crowns yesterday then will get the permanent ones in a few weeks but it was so draining having headaches all day and being in pain almost every time I ate. I can't believe I dealt with it for so long before getting it fixed.
