Ok so I have been here 1 month so I reckon that entitles me to at least 1 moan?!
I am tired of 'being famous' in Japan! White people really are like stars or aliens from outer space here.....I am constantly stared at in the street, cycling to school, at the supermarket.....I didn't really mind at first thinking it was just one off's but they really are amazed by gaigen.
So I go to the supermarket and there is a whole school of kids in there..... When they see me they huddle into groups and talk about me and laugh......old women look at what food I'm buying.....when I'm on my bike people nearly cycle straight into me cause they are so freaked out by crazy things a gaigen might do on their bike they seem to loose the ability to steer!
And the other aspect of it is that Big Brother feeling.....someone is always watching you and taking note of what you are doing......So no pulling your pants out of your bum at the traffic lights....just cant get away with things like that!
Ahhh....thats better - all moaned out now!
