Ayumi, Nami and Namie are given names but Utada and Otsuka are family names. Ms. Utada's given name is Hikaru and Ms. Otsuka's given name is Ai. |
Ai caramba! You got me on that one. |

Uh, I was actually asking the guy I quoted. I'm not a big fan of J-pop, actually (but it certainly doesn't bother me when other people like it). |

Since your income largely determines your other resources and since how you spend 40 hours of your week will significantly impact your mood, they're hardly to be dismissed. Lack of job security and declining pay is pushing a lot of EFL teachers out of the country.

If your name is Ronald, you'll be gone within a week. |

Fukuoka is nice as that is where I live BUT in general I think that the Japanese are arrogant, xenophobic, nationalistic, childish idiots who use cultural differences to justify blatant racism and discrimination on a massive scale..
AND yes I am bitter  |
