Kaze o Hiku
I have a cold. It sucks.
In Japan you’re expected to walk around wearing a face mask, so you don’t cough on people. Handkerchiefs and nose blowing (in public), is frowned upon. Screw that. I don’t think the masks make a modocon of difference, as I think is evidenced by the amount of sick people wearing them. There was this one guy who was wearing one in the supermarket, just walking around sniffling making that ‘I have snot in my nose’ sound.
Ah well.
Apparently 1/5 Japanese people have pollen related allergies, so companies put adverts on tissue packets and hand them out. Especially during Hanami (Sakura Blossom season). “Intruiging”, I hear you say.
By the way, I think I fixed most of the problems with the site. I’ve also added some new photos.
Stay tuned for more useless but intruiging facts.
