Well, as the days have gone by I’ve been making little notes of things that have happened or things I’ve noticed that I thought would be fun to mention here.
And now that I’ve got another decent sized list, here we are with another teaching in Japan stories post!
What are the rules for this tag? I don’t know.
I was tagged a while back by Average Joe Reviews (hope you’re doing alright!), and he wrote about To-Love-Ru.
I’m not quite sure what I should write about for my tag!
I guess this is just a regular post with a tag attached to it for some reason!
I figure I’ll have many more stories to share as we continue on, so I’ll be bold and make this “Teaching in Japan Stories 1“. Let’s hope for many more to come, although I’ll try to exhaust a lot of my stories here in this post.
Post theme (no particular reason):
Let’s get into some random tidbits about school life in Japan.
No rhyme or reason to them, these are mainly just quirks of school life here that weren’t really a thing in Canada where I’m from.
So here we go with 12 Japan school life tidbits!
So I was going to write another list post about random tidbits you maybe didn’t know about Japan schools, but first I figured I’d give an update on where I’m at and what’s going on in regards to that!
Also because I ended up including a bunch of disclaimers that took up half the post last time before realizing I should just throw this info all in one post. So the list will come later.
Post theme:
I know I wanted to write about Japan, but then I got here and settled in and whatnot, and I realized that a lot has already been covered somewhere before, for example mainstream tips like “don’t rub your chopsticks together”, that I’d read a million times prior to coming here. So I tried to come up with some other things that I hadn’t known.
Even these points probably have been mentioned before.
But they’re pretty minor things, so maybe not!
So let’s get into 8 random tidbits I’ve picked up so far from living in Japan for a couple of months. In no particular order.
Let’s get some more anime guilty pleasures in here, because a big one just came to me. I’m actually guilty of it as we speak! You may remember that I’ve written a post like this before…
Although re-reading it, I don’t feel really guilty about anything I wrote there. So I feel like I should double down with some TRUE guilty pleasures here!
As I mentioned last time, I’m no longer in Tokyo.
I’ve since moved to Nagano prefecture!
At this point I’m closer to Japan’s northern shores than the southern ones, and quite far away from Tokyo.
As you’d expect of Nagano, there are mountains all around.
And so this post is dedicated to all these beautiful mountains!
Let’s get a post theme in here:
So in addition to cherry blossom viewing, which was pretty much the bulk of my tourist activities in Tokyo a few weeks ago, I’ve some other pictures that I can share here.
A little delayed, but better late than never right?
That’s right, I’m back with some more positivity.
You too can get all sorts of kind and warm messages from your fans!
Just keep at it! It’ll be worth all the effort, trust me.
And so today I’ll be reading some of the great fan mail that I’ve received over the past couple of weeks, as a thank you to my amazing fans.
