For one, I believe Americans have a culture of change, which would explain our fascination with the weather. But I always rememeber reading an article about a famous European, very wealthy, who was living in NyC. she told the interviewer that in Europe they did things because that was the way things were done. In America she said Americans say they do things because they feel like it. And she liked that life. It’s just as important to learn what you are as to become familiar with a new and different culture.

From where does the swedish people you have talked to, come from. There should be someone at least that comes from Lund University. In that case, say hello from the japanes classes here

Don’t you have any writing sessions. Like writing sakubuns and such. That would really improve writing and grammar.. although I think it’s very difficult. We do that here in our university, write a small sakubun about 400ji and then recieve feedback.

So do you meet any real Japanese people as well? In keio or somewhere else. Are there any clubs that you can participate in?

Ps. The americans are to be considered very forward and talkative, very social. If it’s put in a negative way they are considered loud.. ^^
Look forward to your next entry.
