its on the ichiman en bill . same as the 五　is on the 5 ,... same as the 10 is on the ten dollar note ...

its on the ichiman en bill .

hence why they have a lot more money than other people

considering ichiman = ten thousand = 10,000 = 万　and its the japanese currency you would assume so wouldnt you ... not trying to make fun of you here but its kinda a silly thing to say.

looks as though your coming up to your 10,000th post jesus.

japan is cheaper than australia in a lot of cases mostly convenient store food. 600mls of coke 120円　chocolate 100円　packs of chips around １３０円. but when you start looking at things like real estate, gas electricity taxi/ train rides. thats when it starts to get expensive

that bottled water is incase of an earthquake.. I guess the plasic doesnt hold it enough streeter: ive been thinking about going to bikuri for a while now .. just never gotten around to it. Theres lots of good food here. I eat homemade mostnights.. but also at the same theres a lot of food that I dont like. for example the pasta with the sauce which is made from the black goo stuff octupus / squid or whatever shoots out when it gets scared. EDIT: just noticed the Bottled water is in a can. EDIT # 2: just noticed gojiras new avatar ... good old nova eh.

pfft those situations are no problems ... yes theres really no need for anyone else to type anything. its kinda like a race get in on the thread before him

The JET program is good.. there are also many other companies that hire ALTs . Ive said it before the best way to get a good job is to be in Japan and look. Id follow the advice totoro has given.

Donarto why do you want to come to Japan? If it is to learn the language then study as much as you can before coming. Many people often say you dont need to know any Japanese when you come and I often here people say you dont need to learn it at all while being here. If you cant speak any Japanese it would be very hard and frustrating. These types of comments are usually from those who work in private english companies Eg: Nova. When I first came to Japan I was stuck in the `Nova environment`. I was living in a nova house with other Nova employees. Everything was Nova Nova. Nova has the reputation for being basically the worst company to work for. The money is good and a lot of the students are good too. But the company doesnt care about its employees. And I feel very sorry for the Japanese staff who have to work in that company. There are heaps and heaps of different private english companies here. I recommend trying to get a Job at a public school . Elementary, Junior High, High or even Uni. Not only do you experience Japan to the fullest it is great for your study. Ps: I have a similar degree

i find those everytime i go to a dance party here ....

its hard enough getting the internet here and your express post re-delivered asap letalone faking someones car

f**k i just spent 30 minutes on a pst and my computer f**ked up .... ill re write it tomorrow.... soory

i studied japanese at swinburn for about 1 year before coming here. I came with Nova on a working holiday visa because it was the easiest way get into the country...as the company who hires for Nova does everything for you... I already knew what Japan was about because I had been 2 times before and had/ still have the same japanese girlfriend. Then I studied Japanese full time at a few different schools while working in the evening for a while. Then I continued self study everyday. speaking as well as textbook study. I then moved from Chiba/ to Saitama where I am basically doing a home stay with my girlfriends family but also have the space of my own appartment. Then I got a new job in the public schooling systems over here. which is really good for my Japanese study. Dont even think about working in a restaurant... I doubt you could anyway... Unless your fluent in Japanese and want to be treated the same as a working japanese salary man(you dont!) stick with what will give you the most money for the smallest possible amount of work. You can work about 28 hours a week with some private english companies and make the same as a 60 hour a week salaray man. Im currently work 66 hours a week and although I am a little tired I am making a lot of money. Teaching english sucks most of the time.. but it is a good experience ..... to begin with.
