I spent the day sorting through and re-reading a few thousand e-mails from 2010, and it was really a blast from the past. What a year it was.
Thanks for an awesome 9 years, and for some great e-mails along the way.

As always, I read all of my e-mail and can be reached with questions/comments/concerns/hate mail/and plain ol' hellos at moot@4chan.org (or on AIM at MOOTCHAT).
tl;dr version of 2010: "SPAM, SPAM, SPAM, and VIRUSES: The Movie"

Nope. Those are actually fairly common in Japan. Pretty sure they're erosion control / landslide prevention related.

Not a street, but some pictures I took while at the temple they took me and the other study abroad student from america to for setsubun a while back.

Sorry these aren't exactly high quality pictures, I keep forgetting to take my actual camera with me so I resort to using my iPhone.

Cool stone thing.
I also took a picture of the poor tree that broke due to the snow I guess, but I won't share that picture because it's boring.

I think this might be all I have though, let me scour my folders. I haven't gone a lot of places yet so I don't have a lot of photos.

Man, I love the snow, shame Australia gets so little. I housed 6 Japanese exchange students over 8 years, nothing but nice tales of winter.

I want to go in September, but no snow then right? I sorta want to see the autumn colours then stay long enough to see snow, but would it snow within 2 months?

Hm, I only got here about a month ago myself, so I'm not sure. From my understanding the weather is like where I'm from (New Jersey) for the part part, so probably not.

Speaking of which, it was pretty funny when people would ask if I would get snow back home and I'd reply "yes, it's pretty common for winter". I think the difference between NJ snow and Japan's snow is Japan consistently gets the kind of snow that's good for snowmen and the like, where-as NJ gets the fluffy snow you can't do anything with at least half the time.

I swear, the only real big difference between here and home is that everything is in Japanese. It's kind of surreal how Japanese it is, and yet how much like home it is at the same time...

Sounds like fun, I have no idea what New jersey is like though.

I really want to see Shikoku, most of my exchange students came from there and sadly that is the island I know least about, You know anything helpful?
>>
>>10515155
Unfortunately I don't. That's quite a ways from where I am now (yamanashi prefecture, really close to mt. fuji but you can't actually see it from the town I'm in despite it being super close), so I probably won't even get a chance to see it either.

>>10515153
It's weird, being comfortable walking around by myself when the sun's been set for a while here in Japan but at home I'd be nervous as hell, thinking in my head about what items are in my purse that I could use to defend myself. Something about Japan just makes me not worry.

Doesn't look very grim to me, it has roofing, lighting and it doesn't open onto a road from the sides, which is all I need to feel safe.

Life in Japan looks quite peaceful. Here, everyone seems to be rushing somewhere and they're always so harsh and cold.

God damn it, I just want to have a nice, quiet job in the country side. Too bad that doesn't exist.

hahah, That's the kinda of shitty snow Tasmania always got.

Tokyo sounds nice, if I lived there though i would need a nice looking view though- or one of those shoe boxes apartments, I love small rooms.

thats because i've spent countless hours on google streetview. like 200h plus at the minimum. Exploring the reallife places of animes like clannad, kanon and many more. And even beyond that I just take a random area, move around - try to read signs etc.
