Top Ten Things I Learned From My Trip To Japan

10.) Thems Japanese are crazy (with a kapital 'Z').

9.) A man cannot live on Japanese curry alone. (But he can survive for 12 nights straight on a regular dinner of Hotdogs and scrambled eggs...)

8.) Andrew E. is the one who makes Crayon Shin Chan funny.

7.) Wearing wire-rimmed glasses and a long-sleeved polo, and smiling a lot makes you look a hell of a lot gentler then you usually do. (It also helps you bring on an excess 12 kilos of cargo from the pretty JAL baggage check-in lady and helps you get past Philippine customs without a hitch, hehehe)

6.) The patrons of the neighborhood "Erotic Sex Shop" (excluding those who visit out of the noble search for knowledge of course) are pretty much weird (hence the term Hentai...)

5.) 2 wind-breakers do not count as "Weatherproof Rain-gear" (and 10° C is pretty damn cold).

4.) We rearry are "Phirippine Banana".

3.) Getting sandwiched by giggling high school girls on a train ride is not that great... But it is much-much-MUCH better than getting sandwiched by giggling, smelly, old businessmen...

2.) Never drop your 3-day old digital camera on the rocky slopes of Mt. Fuji (the pamphlets were right... at 3,810m, it truly is a "REAL" mountain).



And the #1 thing I learned from my trip to Japan was...

1.) The fine for sexually harassing a female passenger on a train is ¥300,000.

Marami pa sana akong gustong malaman, tulad na lang ng mga ito:

• Ano ba talaga ang ginagawa sa "maid cafe"???
• Sino ba talaga ang mas patok sa Japan, Egoy o Puti?
• (Mas) Mabait ba talaga ang mga Haponesa?
• Anong gagawin sayo ng "Gaijin Hunter" kapag nahuli ka nila???
• Ano ang ibig sabihin ng "Date Bayou!"???
• Ano ba talaga ang binebenta nung mga babaeng naka-maid costume sa Akihabara???

Buti na lang babalik ako dun sa Novemeber. Oh yeah!
