Daily Life
Compared to what my daily life is like, Japanese life seems somewhat more lively. First off, having work or school at nine sounds like a dream compared to what is going on right now. Extra hours of sleep sounds amazing. Second off, walking to and from school sounds amazing as well. I noticed that Japanese culture doesn't focus too heavily on cars. It's a lot of walking and public transport. It's a less car-centric society and it feels like you can go outside much more often cause some stuff is much closer and not like five highways away.
Nightlife from what I glimpsed seems pretty similar to what I assume goes on here in the West. That being relaxing at a bar with drinks and friends. I don't go out enough to confirm this, however. It is interesting to see people still doing active activities after nine, however. Working out at night seems strange but I suppose people do things like job at night, so exercising doesn't seem too far away. What throws me off however is that the work day ends at nine. I don't know too much about night social life as I don't often venture into the night, but for the most part, they seem somewhat similar.

great observations. I miss public transportation and walking/biking to work
