Love Life and Japan: 5 things I love and hate

[kelveto]

Is it true that you often encounter puke puddles in Japan? I'd never seen such.

[ibprofin100]

Actually Japan would be a nice place to live if I didn't worry about the violent tsunamis that took place over there.

[heyho007]

I lived 9 years in Japan. I am so happy I moved back to Europe, and now live in the states for a while. America is still much better (at least for a European). Its easier to talk to people, people are honest and say if they like you or not. In Japan, its like you have to be nice, even if you don't like the person. And mind you, many japanese people hate foreigners and are racist. I personally think Singapore or Hong Kong are places foreigners should look at in Asia.

[crocopde]

@heyho007 hey thanks for your comment ....

[Rachelle12311]

Which part of Japan are you in? From what I've heard their pretty racist...

[Tracyconly]

Great video. I hope to go to Japan one day but for now I will rely on helpful web videos/tips.

[Tallness511]

I want to move to japan soo bad im and im african american How do you get perms and stuff and im tall 5"11 how do u find jeans??? japaness people are kinda short :)

[ltjplanet]

@lolfaces37 Dont worry everyone ignored you.

[stuffyluver]

@ltjplanet I was gonna lash out at that person but when I read your reply it calmed me down... I hope it does that for others too because I just realized he/she is not worth our time :)

[MrSzymonSz]

Seriously? You can't puke in public in America? :) Come on... What if you're actually sick. That's not something you can control lol I guess it's one of those funny/silly laws.

[rasdasa]

@MrSzymonSz You can, a quick assessment by a police officer will easily show if you're just puking from being drunk or if you are actually sick and it's out of your control. They don't just walk around blowing whistles and ticketing anyone who hurls.

[microdork80]

i live in japan,,how come i never see beautiful gaijin women like you,,,its not fair im sick of japanese girls, but gorgeous black women like you are never around..i wish we could meet some how... maybe the stars will bring us together some day

[WolframvonBielefeld9]

a lot of people in my secondary school (im British) also roll their skirts up, but if they wear skirts they also always wear shorts (usually PE uniform shorts or similar) underneath, which meant that I never felt uncomfortable about it...maybe someone needs to suggest that to Japan...and btw, you're really pretty!!!!!!!!!:D

[shino475]

cant wait to go there

[horriehomepage]

JP toilets and Karaoke are awesome! Getting a surcharge from your own bank at one of THEIR ATMs is bullshit. ATMs don't need rest, shutting them down is idiotic from a business point of view. There are many times I needed money and would've paid the surcharge but simply couldn't. Avoid nomihoudai. Buy your stuff at a supermarket. If you do the math (before you drink haha) you won't save money for 2000 yen in 2 hrs, and they serve the lowest quality spirits and fake beer (happoushu).　乾杯!

[Riko1980]

if i may say you seem like a really sweet intelligent and really gorgeous girl. If anyone treated you badly I would safely and honestly say that they had something against you . I'm a black woman myself and with racism its really hard to figure out when you actually did something wrong or the person was targeting you out of racism since most people don't publically declare their racism. I'm always wanted to visit japan but the fear of being ostracized kept holding me back.

[BobLeKatt]

Do you have a lot of JP businessmen for clients?

[LucisFerre1]

Wow wow wow, you're so freaking beautiful!

[kiki10simple]

About ATM.It depends on your card.coz my bank card can be used 24h! i recommend you shinsei bank card! it costs free when you withdraw savings from an account and can use 24h.

but that is only post office and seven eleven. UFJ might be better for you.its a 24h,too.

[mellomanis16]

hot

[hitman007Japan]

cute!!かわいい。

[00tensonam]

are you still in japan?

[Herakhti]

Thanks for the info, I'm thrilled about the toilets..... and you are gorgeous!

[smokelakes]

id like to have her as my teacher for sure -_o

uh, anyways, i think one of the most annoying things would be her #5. the way they express themselves as compared to me... oh well, still planning to make a long visit

[vipersian]

How do you like the Japanese boys?

[ThatBuddha94]

You Are So Beautiful. -3

[justin20877]

@ThatBuddha94 For real. The boys down there had better recognize how easy they have it.

[donmoreno25]

hottie

[tomodachi202]

holla at me. i spent two years in tokyo and in the process of writing about it. i was there b4, during, and after 9/11, returned again for a semester of law school. friend me on facebook @ marwan tomodachi. i'm not a stalker, but need to holler at as many sistas/brothas who have had experience in japan. you in tokyo? Ja mata

[istrikeher]

Is that your real hair? or is it a wig?

[AnimeGenderBender]

I love watching videos related to Japan life ! pleeeaasee make everyday ! LOL >. <

[MsJapaneseCherryPoP]

DAMN o_O that make-up kit! *O*

[4BlackLotus]

Do you have a permanent visa(i think that's what its called) in japan? I plan on moving there and not coming back to the States

[lecifbaby]

@4BlackLotus You could become a citizen. You'd have to give up your US citizenship though.

[VisualAural]

Do you have problems dating? I would think that you would be a bit taller than most of the guys in Japan.

[Verair]

you were really cute when you were talking about the toilets...lol

[Pakyakachu]

I've heard of a hair straightening technique called Japanese Hair Straightening/Thermal reconditioning that's really good, so maybe look into see if you can find that in Japan. Good luck.

[MarqZePancakeNinja]

You've probably already answered this but what school do you teach at? I'm hoping to teach over there when I graduate. I'm thinking I want to teach in Okinawa though.

[reesescupbrandy1]

Their toilets sounds cool. I'm definitely pee-shy. 

[2561305]

Youuuuuu are beautiful! and your smile is amazing! :)

[lorchesca]

@xpressurs shut up your a racist pig

[treestar]

OMG You're beautiful girl! You should go on Japanese tv! :)

[PlushieClock]

Wait! You didn't really specify how Japanese people express themselves and how it is completely different from US society! Do they not show emotion because it's considered "disorderly" in public..? Idk, lmao.

[temps105]

you are really pretty.

[ninjaspit]

My goodness you are beautiful. I am a Black Male soon to be in Japan for Martial Arts and Teaching with my English degree. I will subscribe to your channel if you dont mind.

[kainjysun]

u r so hot !!!

[cbrstunter24]

You are very cute!

[Nickouille69]

you are so cute!

[0trashz]

wow, she's so hot, she's making me cry. : (

[sasilver1]

Great video but school girls wearing short skirts in Japan is surely no different than the skimpy outfits these school children wear in the U.S.

[dcreyes330]

Bidet

[burnstagger]

Stay in Japan. USA has gone nuts.

[millienl]

@burnstagger haha best comment today!!

[GhostOfAStranger1]

@burnstagger LOL its funny because it's true!

[lalem91]

HAHA this was excellent the puke part made me crack up :) How much Japanese do you speak? And do you have to learn it before you go?

[hiddenbeauty12]

You being in Japan makes me excited! I'm gonna be there working soon! Hope to see you if you are still there!

[nibelungvalesty]

im subscribing to you, I plan on living there to for international business/ translating.

[TeriyakiShogun]

you are sooo beautiful Black Princess <3 lol

[TofuUnion]

I'm Japanese and totally agree with the last point you hate in Japan. It's especially so awkward to talk about some negative problem with Japanese people. They often don't speak strait to the point even it's necessary and will deny it by just neglecting.

[SelenaPants88]

i stopped the video at victoria secret, sorry just couldnt watch this shitty video

[LTS1287]

Honey, you're gorgeous. You don't need all that makeup.

[roxhawet11]

you look like my barbie!!! 

[windmark8040]

Great vid! Heated seats and noise-makers! Why hasn't this caught on in the states! LoL!

[psford1]

I love Japan so much and I was only there for a short study abroad this summer. The people, the history and of course the food! I cant wait to make that trip again. As an African American I was really worried that Japanese people would be afraid of me but they were so cool and came up and 'tried' to talk all the time. I had to share an elevator with an elderly japanese woman one night and I figured she would be scared but she actually tried to strike up a conversation. Daijoubu I guess!

[psford1]

This may be bordering on being too personal, but I always ask this...what part of Japan are you in if you're still there. You can inbox if you dont want it to be public

[nichirenx]

Videos like this make me want to move to another nation.

Nothing wrong with the USA but it would be nice to immerse in a totally different culture. Great video.

[bluecreambunnymomiji]

how did you go about becoming a teacher in japan

[10simmonsb]

@bluecreambunnymomiji I did some research about jobs in Japan while I was in college and I interviewed in America, then came here. It really easy if you have a B.A

[bluecreambunnymomiji]

@10simmonsb thanks

[johnyjoe2k]

@10simmonsb

Haha The JET program, right? My Japanese teacher mentioned this to the class. She asked one of her former students who went through the JET program to talk to the class. He came and kept talking about how drunk he got all the time lol

Do you know if you can go through the program with a BA in applied mathematics?

[whateverman181]

@10simmons Puking in public? What? LOL. People puke when drunk in the states too. But I'm surprised the Japanese have no problem with this...I thought they had a thing about cleanliness. 

[Tychaification]

@10simmonsb , hello I would like to know if it is possible for black girl to get a job in media industry such as talent agency over there. I m try to get some information about it but find nothing yet and i dont know anyone there.

[ccwgirl31289]

@Tychaification

This is a great question that I too would like to know the answer to. Thanks.

[Tychaification]

@ccwgirl31289 Thx girl, please let me know

[Tychaification]

@ccwgirl31289 I think u got great skin color, i love it

[kurohige1338]

You're a "teacher"... LOL. You do know teaching in Japan is what people do who are fucking trash and have learned nothing in their lives?

Fucking american trash.

[leloodallasmultipass]

@kurohige1338 are you just rolling through "Americans in Japan" playlists and leaving shitty comments? oh ya, you are. if you hate Americans so much, you might try fixating on something that you like... like penis pills.

[sheliene12]

@kurohige1338 Wow!! So mean. Did you have a bad experience with a American or something to make you hate people you absolutely don't know? How can you hate a person that you don't know? It sounds irrational to me. Spread love not hate. Don't hate because of some one else wrong doing. Hate the person who personally has openly did or said something to you to try to hurt your feelings. You cant just hate people you don't know. More love. hate blinds and divide people.

[Oipunxunite]

I don't want to sound like a generic loser internet guy saying "OMG! You're sooo hot! Give me your number baby! blah blah blah...." or anything but you truly are beautiful. And you're so honest. You must have a great personality. I think I have a crush :-)

[kurohige1338]

@Oipunxunite You do sound like a loser, you fucking piece of shit. Be a man at least and simply say you'd fuck her, fucking loser.

[Oipunxunite]

@kurohige1338 Wow, talk about getting emotional. U mad bro? LMAO 

[ashlimaze]

will you do an apartment tour?

[CAAJDJ]

I'm in Japan find me!! You are stunning!

[ikimikiss2]

i wanna go to japan! :D

[GuariadelBosque]

That thing used to wash your genitals is called a BIDET.

[GuariadelBosque]

Vomiting in public is not considered disorderly conduct (urinating is, though) & people are not fined for doing so in public in any of the 50 states. Think about it, police departments would be up to their necks in lawsuits if such a thing were true. They would be out there fining women with morning sickness (which doesn't just strike in the a.m.), those who drank excess, people with some allergic reactions or those with any of hundreds of medical conditions that cause vomiting.

[psford1]

Japan is amazing. There weren't very many other people of African descent when I visited on a study abroad this year but the trip was unforgettable. I learned and saw so much it was crazy. I tell anyone who can to make the trip at least once. I def plan to stay for a couple years when Im done with school. The people, the history, the architecture and of course THE FOOD!! Japan is a great place - and this is so off topic but God you are beautiful. Where were you when I was there? Serious question

[KawaiyoKoji]

You're hot!!!

[MizzBrightsyde]

where do you go to get your hair permed while in Japan

[LifeFirst]

@MizzBrightsyde Wherever Japanese people go to get their hair permed (yes they do it).

[MrHashitanai]

@MizzBrightsyde I wanna know too!!!!!

[10simmonsb]

@MizzBrightsyde to be honest I haven`t found a salon that I can trust to do my hair, so I brought relaxers with me and I do it myself. Im still looking for a place that I can go where people can handle my type of hair. please let me know if you find something.

[MizzBrightsyde]

@10simmonsb Hey girl whats up? Well I havent personally met anyone in Japan who knows how to relax our type of hair yet. But while I was looking around on youtube I came across someone from Tokyo who should be able to relax hair. I think her screen name is "sagamigal" I think she is Trinidadian. So if you are interested you could check her out :)

[HizokuXAmbipom]

@MizzBrightsyde

do it themselves... duh

[EbonyDollable]

@10simmonsb so many people say that they dont wanna leave after they go there, is it really that amazing? I wanna know because after/during my degree i would really like to go just to have the experience and get the fashion inspiration too.

[10simmonsb]

@EbonyDollable It depends on the person. Personally I like the Asian culture so being here sparks my interest a lot, and Im also open minded to a lot of different things. So for me being here was one of my best decisions after college. I still do miss America tho, I try to visit as much as possible.

[EbonyDollable]

10simmonsb @ so many people say that they dont wanna leave after they go there, is it really that amazing? I wanna know because after/during my degree i would really like to go just to have the experience and get the fashion inspiration too.

[JukBxLuvSong]

Ha! The shcol girls rolling up their uniform skirts are as old as time. Girls here in the states that go to Catholic schools have been doing that forever. My friend taked about how she did that back in that late 80's and early 90's

[tuplivez]

who cares? say something worthwhile

[ArthurGreenDesigns]

I'm a tall white californian moving to Aomori next week for 11 months, this video was interesting. Thank you!

[DJEmergency]

Hey I subscribed to your channel, because I was looking up on somethings about japan. I'm thinking on moving there as well, but first want to visit to see how it is. I have a couple of questions I would like to ask and am wondering if there is a way to contact you directly? Like Facebook or something like that. Thank you for this great video and I hope to speak with you soon. God Bless.

[JapanAndThings]

Great video. Looking forward to more in the future.

[xmoisurlewebx]

one reason i love japan : you !

;-)

[puckman]

I hear ya! I moved here in March!
