Japanese are awesome.

 

1.

Despite my tourist attire and huge camera hanging on my neck, cashiers all say something then something hits them when I give my blank stare. They all give this sympathetic(?) look then proceed to checkout quickly. Neato.

It’s either “you’re an idiot” or “you’re an fucking idiot, have a nice day :)” take your pick.

 

2.

I love it when people spend minutes talking to me in Japanese and always end with, “You have no idea what I’m saying.” In which I can reply in perfect Japanese,” はい！ わかりません.”

Ironically, those questions are the few sentences that I do understand.

 

3.

I’m actually considering writing a “Hello, I’m a tourist” sticker…

or something on my forehead…….

 

 

I’m too wuss balls to use actual matcha… then again… I probably didn’t wash the cup thoroughly. FYI, $tarbucks version not so great (it’s different from the “green tea” in $tores), I like the cup tho.
