I’ve lived in Japan for 16~ years and here is my advice…
I haven’t heard an original complaint about Japan from a foreigner since my first year here.
So focus on your life and time in Japan and do your best to to make your own experience.

My sensei was hard on me today. He hates my design for the exhibition, I need to make it and & take photo and he can decide if I do it or not. He had no corrections on tonight’s arrangement. He said he hates it and wish I’d make something normal. I refuse.

I’m going to keep shouting this. But for us city dwellers, try to find your local farmer’s market! All this for 2000 yen. Is a bargain!

In a recycling shop today just browsing. I was curious what was in the case. Turned out to be a bamboo and bone Mahjong set! I’ve been wanting one, but not actively looking! The sweet price of 1980 yen. I’m trying to find the maker and history, but. So far I only have レトロ竹

5 months in the new house, and I finally unpacked and set up my ikebana room. Every time I looked at it, it was overwhelming.
In a 16 hour non stop frenzy yesterday I finally have it ready and can open up private lessons in my home again.
Will hang the certificates tonight.

Mandatory health exam today. The doctor was a real treat. She asked how I became so fat. And I told her I have a doctor and I don’t want or need to talk with you. She continued… “you need to watch what you eat and don’t eat meat.”
Me: I’m a vegetarian
Dr.: what!??!
