Sorry it’s been awhile.
As I travel the world I find that the cultures are different but the people are always people. As I look around my class in Japan, I see the Japanese people. I see Okinawa’s people. I also see something else. I see teenagers being teens. It’s quite fun to see. It gives me a strange assurance, really. I’m not afraid of the world due to this. I’m not afraid of terrorist or things like that. I see all the world’s the same. I bet all over the world that all the teens want to be ‘cool’ or ‘hip.’ I see that here for sure. It’s all about who is dating who or who likes who. I’ve personally been asked many times if I have a girl friend. For the record, no I don’t. Also, everyone seems concerned not with the world as it is. They are Japanese. Okinawan to be exact.
It’s lunch time now. Let me go eat. I have much to say on this subject after my lovely meal. It’s a lot different then my home. Culture thing I guess.
Lunch is fantastic here. The food is amazing. You have a bento box. Think pre-made meal that you’re mother makes ^_^ Lunch today was rice, fried pork, meat ball things, and some spinach. Oh and don’t forget the chopsticks. I haven’t used a fork or knife in about a month. The food here is usually low on fat. That’s very nice. Even so, the carbs are quite high in the average meal. Oh well. Rice is fantastic. This isn’t what I wanted to talk about though. (Hmmm…all the girls just left from the class. I think I missed something.)
I don’t know if I’ve mentioned this or not, but it does require repeating. Lunch is quite odd…socially.
The boys and girls tend to eat lunch…serperate. I find it kind of funny in a way. When The bell rings, the boys leave with smoke trails behind them like the road runner. All the girls tend to eat in there class room with all of their friends. I don’t know. It’s odd for me being that most of my good friends and my best friend are girls. I thought that was just quite odd.
