@mochi_mochi_aus I never thought about how special these cakes are. I’d always get one or have one made every birthday. Though they look pretty, they usually taste bad. I prefer Andersen’s pastries any day 😅
@foreeeeeal My hairdresser told me she gets excited when I come in, and she has even mentioned me to other friends because of a hair stick I brought back from Japan. We’re actually friends now and I gave her an extra one I had.
@desasprio American here, nineteen hundred is usually reserved for the time period, one thousand nine hundred is used more. When I hear someone say it out of time context it’s confusing. Nineteen hundred and nineteen thousand are easily mixed up too (1,900) (19,000)
@miao_tae_ this is a little silly, but I travel to Japan often and when I get back to the US I find myself subconsciously doing it too, especially right off the plane. I have to remind myself it’s different here
@tanpukunokami@Sei02579989 It’s true. It’s common to work for 16 hours for overtime, and the drive home can be almost an hour. Doctors and nurses sometimes work 24 hour shifts too.
