I'm back 'home' In Yokohama now, I have to do the tallying of all the tickets I have but I am sure i spent at least 20-24 hours on the bullet train last 7 days going place to place. I will try to create at least 2 mostly worded posts before i go to Korea on Tuesday. My experiences on the Bullet trains and the Capsule Hotels i stayed at in Osaka and Sendai.
Once in Korea (for 10 days 9 nights) I make no promises of a posting schedule. I will be in a hostel and i should have Internet but I am bad with sitting in front of the PC when I know there is stuff to do, people to meet, and pretty women around.
So enjoy the stories as they come...
P.s.
I have a nationalized Japanese test on Sunday Dec 5, to gauge my ability. I am not that confident but it will not kill me if I fail; so I am just going to go in a do my best and work towards next year. Wish me luck....

Short skirt, Stockings, and High heels.... No Excuses!
I imagine the initial conversation goes like this. "now nami-chan, I will pass down the technique of how to catch the eyes and hearts of men. From generation to generation, way back from the 1970's when the 'hot pants' and 'thigh high' socks was created, we discovered if we combine those with loud high heels we can enrapture men in our beauty."
I don't pretend to know how it came to be like this. But all you will see is short skirts/hot pants, stockings and high heels in this country. Age whenever - 30 and it is a bit of a contrast from America. In America its top centered sexuality. I don't particular care for this as I am not focused on that part of the body (more of white guy thing) but that's the western doctrine. It's bit interesting because there is no variety, its always 2 of the 3 if not all three. And 90% of the time is black stockings. And 100% of the time its a grating audible noise from every, single, stupid, step of the lady in her high heels.
In comparison to western fashion, it is amazing how i can count on one hand the short sleeve shirts and deep v's worn by a Japanese women. They will wear nothing waist down, but a fur coat on top, or a see through shirt over like 2 other blouses or something. I don't know what the name of women clothing items. Rather quizzical to me, i know for obvious reasons why there is a compensation for that area, but skin is skin to a man. It's not a plus or minus, and some men actually look for the quality of character rather than looks alone, Shocking but true.
I also don't pretend to not look and enjoy certain specimens. But as a whole after a month i am rather bored. By far i am not a fan nor do I know a thing about fashion... but the singularity of it all is probably a juxtaposition of the Japanese culture in it self. Sure a few will venture away, but for the most part all try to find a small variation of the norm. Its a social commentary on its own i believe. I will leave that for a much smarter person then I obviously.
I would love to post pictures here but that would require a sort of clandestine photo escapade and I to be honest am not that perverted. I do believe I may pick this topic up on another occasion.. possibly. Till next time.

Hooray Hooray Baseball!!
I went to the Tokyo Dome to see the Yomiuri Giants Vs. Yokohama Bay Stars. First, awesome experience being in Tokyo dome with the Japanese fans. They cheer throughout the game whether up or down. Trumpets blare, flags are waved, and songs are sang. It seemed like the fans had chants for every player, and they all knew exactly when to start, which chants to do at which time. It was awesome to watch.
But on to baseball, It was an entertaining game including two hr's and a triple play. 5-5-4-3 if i am not mistaken. Giants Won 7-1 and it was sort of bitter sweet, seeing as I am moving to Yokohama soon. It sucks to see my future home town team suck. MVP after game interview - replays
The Tokyo Dome itself is an interesting place. The concession stand sell Japanese style food as excepted I suppose, Obento, yakitori, taiyaki. Sort of weird seeing people eat obento at a baseball game. The American in me is a purest There needs to be peanuts and cracker jacks. I don't care if i ever get back! (a weak premise to sing the song i think...Meh!) There are restaurants on the outside of the complex as well as vendors. The Japanese Hall of Fame is there inside the dome. It is definitely a must see.
For the most important thing, the Beer and Whiskey Girls. If that is not an American idea, i don't know what is. Pretty girls with kegs on their back walking around serving liquor? Highlight maybe of my trip so far. I know there is a standard too because not one of them was ugly, unlike the Akihabara maid cafe waitresses. More on that at a later date. They wear brightly colored uniforms; shirt, shorts and hats. Some girls wear flowers in their hair. It's such a welcomed experience after seeing beer men all my life. I wonder how i go back and experience the assault on my eyes of middle aged men with beer guts themselves screaming 'Budweiser'. Its a sad thought indeed.
