    I'm so jealous! Here's a place to go if you want some information on how you should behave:

    Hope that helps a bit, although you needn't worry about them too much as foreigners aren't expected to know every little detail on how to behave. Have fun!

    I'd think she'd atleast know that. She did say roo-bish but I think she'd know the basic words...

    I should be jealous but being in HK, I'm not. In any case, I hope you like the sudden incapability of buying decent clothing that won't make you stand out in America, the sudden vanishment of rare steak, and dance clubs where people make general americans dance like gods.

    Oh God am I jaded.

    Though if you are just going there to sight see and have fun, you'll have no problem there ;p

    WHOOOOOOOO Are you going to Tokyo? Because if you go to Tokyo go to Shibuya. Shibuya is THE BEST shopping district in this frickin' world.
    If you need any help with the language, remember japanese is my first language and you can easily give me a call if you need a translator. I'll PM you my landline and mobile if you need it. So get studying, you! :skull3:
    A hint of advice. Japan is very social and USA/UK oriented. Tons of people speak english and it's really easy to get around, so DON'T worry. And unless you want to eat octopus, for your sake don't order tako at taco bell.
    Another thing is, if you get lost (which I doubt) or in trouble and need help, it would only take me an hour to get to you since I'm right next door, hey?
    Good luck!

    Just nod and smile a lot; you'll be fine.

    And I don't understand why everyone is jealous etc. You all realize that you could go to Japan if you wanted to, right? And besides, what's so great about going to Japan anyway? "Oh wow, anime and video games come from here!" Yeah, so what? Who cares? *shrug* I dunno.
    No.

    Hey, can you get me a japanese PS2 and the oringal version of Star Ocean: Till the End on Time, and Star Ocean: Director's Cut? And maybe any thing else you can see that an RPG... I'll pay...

    I know a site that helped with people going to Japan and it was also a how to learn japanese site... every time I go to it now though, it kicks me off, so I can't really give it to ya, you can try it, it might work for you: thejapanesepage.com


    Sushi is raw fish
    Sushi is actually raw fish in rice. I believe Sashimi is raw fish (it's been a while since I'm been to a sushi place so... I really don't remember...)
