The good and bad
It is late Friday night ( or early Saturday morning) and i have just gotten home. Living in Japan has its ups and downs…as life anywhere does and on the way home i had two thoughts…one is a reason i love Japan and another is a reason i hate it…
While i’m not always exactley a half glass full type of person i thought i would start with the positive…as technically it came first…
Reason #1 : why i love Japan
I was walking through Roppongi back to my station and i thought…wow…it’s 11:30pm, and i can walk around in the streets, go into trainstations, and never worry about my safety…That’s not to say i am stupid…but walking around in Japan, i have never really felt anything but safe.
Reason #1 : why i hate Japan
A reason i hate Japan…well after my little walk to the station where i felt so safe…i had to get on a packed chuo line train from Yotsuya…People pushing me, touching me inappropriately ( although that didn’t happen tonight) the smell of people that have been at work all day or have been drinking…I have to say i am not as phased as i used to be, but as it is getting hotter here, everytime i catch a train ( pretty much EVERY DAY) i kind of dread having to get on…
Well that is just my little contribution for tonight…
