One of the weirdest things about being in Japan is the constant feeling you have of being this stupid loud lumbering giant. On the train and what have you everyone is real quiet and well-dressed and knows exactly what they are doing and you are sitting there towering over everyone else with all of your ridiculous baggage and your stupid jeans and sneakers trying to figure out what the hell is going on because you took a holiday to a country without learning to read any of the language, you monumental dickhead. I just want to apologise to everyone all the time.
I should note that everyone is actually super friendly and accommodating and no one actually makes you feel like this, it's just the self-conciousness that comes with being surrounded by people that seem to have their shit together. That everyone is so nice almost makes it worse, because you know if some Japanese dudes were trying to get around Sydney, bogans would be yelling at them constantly.
