Declining Marriage Rate in Japani get the same reactions from relatives on family events and party's.
it's really annoying when always asked about but you just don't wanna hear about it because you can't be bothered with relationships at this point in time.
Declining Marriage Rate in Japanthat story about the rollerblade chase really had me laughing. no hard feelings but it's both a bit cheesy and hilarious imagining you chasing after a car, holding flowers after bodyguards pinned you down. that sounds like a script for a modern date...
Akihabara Girlsmaybe my comment came out too negative. don't get me wrong ;) what i meant was that i think that one who doesn't live in jp (i.e. me) cannot grasp why you would take your time photographing girls on the streets, when you have a whole city to explore....
Japan Transportallowed over here, but you have to pay a small fee to your monthly ticket for it. or maybe they changed it, have never taken a bike on the train myself. then again, my last train ride was like 1 year ago^^
Akihabara GirlsSpending your day at akihabara - you're doing it wrong.
I guess i will never understand the true motivation of resident otaku to just photograph whatever schoolgirl/idol/cosplayer runs around in akihabara. Well, to every it's own.
Bishoujo Figuresaber and rin are so cute :P i kind of want that asuka /w bike figure but i don't know if i would actually place it in my room for everyone to see ^^

Second Hand Mangaanother reason why i'm jealous. that price you pay there for second hand manga, even new ones is ridiculous. if i want to get my fix on uncensored(in the way of translation rather than depiction), japanese language manga, i'd have to pay about 11-12...
Worst Place to Live in Japani definately see myself living in japan within the next 3-4 years. there are still some precautions to be done. and even though this thought maybe a bit naive since i haven't even visited japan so far, i don't think that'll change. the grass on the o...
Laptop VS Desktopthat's a funny question, because i'm not really sure myself. half a year ago i updated my old desktop with a new dualcore energy efficient processor, passive cooled mainboard and graphics card. still thinking "actually you don't use it all that much"...
Japan Online Gamingall my WiFi enabled consoles/handhelds are connected to the internets. but i barely use my psp or ds to go online. on wii i just casually look what's new in the shopping channel or read the news/weather.
i'm planning on buying a ps3 but wouldn't fi...
Broadband in Japaneven though there are DSL speeds up to 16mbps over here(which one can afford), i'm using my old reliable cable connection since 6 years. at first 2mbit then 6mbit. nothing better :D
