When walking to school everyday in the heat I've noticed something. There is no button at the traffic lights like in sweden. Instead they seems to cycle automagicly and it works fine, and sometimes every car stands still because none is where there is green. And ofcourse the pedestrian crossings works the same way, this is a real pain because I have to pass some large crossings and always I got like four tries before I actually have to stop and wait for green light and every single day this far I've been forced to wait at the last one for a green light. Such a drag!
Other then that I've not much to complain about. I'm intrigued that we dont have a dishtowel in the kitchen neither do we have a washing-up brush (diskborste). Instead we use toilet paper ( I mean seriously toilet paper why not even some higher quality paper.. ) and a sponge for the dishes.
Can also report that I've survived my first earthquake. I was asleep at the time, woke up and noticed it shaking and thought a second about the durability of houses in Japan then I went back to sleep right after it stopped, it was just a tiny rumble. Next day I thought it was a dream until my friends at school discussed the earthquake.
And not it's time to study, have 3 big tests this week, already done one of them. It's placements tests so you can get into a higher Japanese class, but because I'll be leaving the school in about 10 days it doesn't really matter what I score, except for my self-esteem.
