So how about how Japan's toilets aren't only the most luxurious thing for how they look..but for the bidet. I must admit, never in my life have I attempted to ride one of these badboys into the sunset. Add two parts me, one part curiousity, and one part the feeling of no regrets, and you have me riding that wave of cleanliness and H20 enjoyment. So far, every residence I have encountered has housed one of these fine fantastic machines. Yes, I was a bit freaked out at first, but seriously. Now, im no longer freaked, and just damn clean. My favorite part is the warm flow at the end which fans your bottom with the gentle breeze reminiscint of a cool south pacific night. Now I still have yet to try the one at the house I am currently at, but Hatchet has just compared this residences' bidet to "a warm dragon breath houding your orificies into the realms of purity" the point being? bidets are amazing. if you have one at your house, im coming to visit you.

Now, what else could be more rediculous than karaoke? How about japanese karaoke where you have your own private room with your friends, and you just have to go to it. Me and Hatchet forcefully sang some really bad songs, but all the same enjoyed the fact that we were doing the ultimate Japanese thing.

Did I mention to anyone about my new fake id? Well, my student ID will expire at the end of this year, and I still have about 3 months of travelling left...so while in Thailand, for the nifty price of about a few pinches of rice, I bought a new student ID. It is completely identical to my current legal one with one exception..for the hell of it, I had them put down that I attend Yale University. Does this mean anything? Nothing more than that I can feel like a bad ass when I present for my discount. "Excuse me, you may now deduct 2/4 off my train fare as I hold in my hand, official proof of my intelligence" hahahahah oh.

In Japan, there are many types of movies you can rent....sci-fi, action, anime, and future kidnappings. Yes, future kidnappings is a movie genre here....who else wants to move here with me. FUTURE KIDNAPPINGS?? COME ON!!!!

jeez, im serious...it's only like a week now since I've been here, and I have had so much to say already...Japan isn't kidding with me. It isn't even kidding with you. Get over yourself, get your stuff together, and get over here!!!

Ill be back so soon your damn American (Irish heads for the family) heads will be spinning faster than a Japanese pachinko gambling machine.
