rikuou123 I tried the shampoo-and-conditioner thing before, but it didn't work very well. My hair always felt really rough afterward. The same goes for shampooing too often. I use a very cheap conditioner to "shampoo" my hair. If you scrub well enough, it has the same...

rikuou123 I did the online course on the I-to-I TEFL site. I've had no problems so far, but I will say that an actual course in a classroom looks a lot better on your resume. I'm currently teaching English in Japan.

rikuou123 The Japanese are not the only culture in the world that takes baths at night. It's relaxing and leaves people more time in the morning to do other things. They don't turn on the air conditioner because it's really expensive and the Japanese don't like to...

Many Okinawan people, especially the old generation said Okinawa is not part of Japan. They said Okinawa is under the Kingdom of Ryukyu and it's an independent state, not Japan. What do you think? p.s Okinawa is the southern...

okinawa is not part of japan

1 response

rikuou123 Maybe the older people think that way, but the younger people don't seem to think so. Okinawa IS very different from the rest of Japan, but they've been part of Japan for a long time now and a lot of Japanese customs have moved in. Although there's a pretty...

rikuou123 Soy beans. Same as the person who wrote about eggs, soy beans are increadably versatile without really having to add anything. And their healthy. AND their environmentally friendly. ... I'm a vegetarian, in case you couldn't guess.

rikuou123 I personally think it's a good idea. I can understand couples who are morally against it or just simply don't, but I feel that really knowing and understanding each other is important before making a lifetime commitment (especially these days)....
