It'll probably rain for the first time over here at my dorm if the weather forecast holds up better than it does in Singapore: http://weather.yahoo.co.jp/weather/jp/11/4310/11227/3510021.html
Rain = cold & wet. Will be in school today to take the placement test. Hope I'll be appropriately placed (considering my lack of practice in the weeks before coming here).
Before heading to school, here's just a few of my "You know you're in Japan when..."
1) You see people brushing teeth in public toilets everywhere, like those at train stations and depaato (department stores).
2) You hear endless cries of irasshaimase and enthusiastic, smiling staff welcoming you and repeating the day's various promotions through microphones at EVERY section of the store (e.g. the TV section, camera section, iPod section of an electrical store) - although probably no one is really listening.
3) No one talks on their mobiles in trains.
Be back later!
