Memorable quote:
In conclusion, I can think of no other place where the lifestyle and mentality is the polar opposite to that of Japan..or even the US. Sure, their economies are non-existant and nothing ever gets produced..but what a way to relax.
And his sister Tina is real cute, too. Bummer he missed Joel and Aki's wedding, but it looks like he had good time.
As for me, I just got out of 3 hours of study for the Japanese Registered Representative exam. Why, dare you ask, is an IT web-geek studying to be a certified Japanese Financial Services Registered Representative? No bloody idea...seemed like a good idea, and then by some miracle I passed level 2, so now I just HAVE to take level 1 eh? Best part is, most other fools in the class will lose their jobs if they don't pass. Nice to be the one monkey with no pressure, eh?
