    Japanese people eat sushi and teriyaki chicken, and drink miso soup. They drink green tea and sake. They drive cars that look like or . I think that's it..

    @GigaByte Okay, about english Like foreign language here, Japanese start learning English at around middle school But like learning Spanish or any other language, it's basically kindergarten stuff for native ppl. So I'm pretty sure educated ppl and kids will understand English to some point, just like u will understand some Spanish after u took classes (or French w/e) What we do in school is basically the same in the US...or anywhere I'm pretty sure, except that they have a field day event where they split in to a Red team and a White team, representing the Japanese Flag and compete against each other in many different activities (tug-a-war, short distant running, long distant running, obstacle race running, Relay race etc.) And WTF is a wabaki?

    Read more manga. Watch more jdramas which has 'normal' school students. Altho they're fake, but at least it should show you a rough image on how japan is like..
