Supplies!!!!

I'm currently at the hotel that my father is staying at. For those who do not know, my father came to Japan for business for about a week and I am staying with him for this period of time. At the same time, he brought supplies for me all the way from Singapore. At first I thought that it will be a relaxing and fun trip. Well, it isn't that bad except that I had 3 heavy bags of stuffs to bring back home from the hotel and after the 2nd trip today. My body is aching all over and I still have one more to go tomorrow. Well, guess that's the price to pay for a better life ahead. Japanese tv has nice shows, makes me want to buy a television.

On the train today, there was a guy sitting on the seat trying to put on a short sleeve shirt and he was having difficulty. An old lady standing at the side helped him put the shirt on. Both of them are strangers! Makes me wonder, from acknowledging the person holding the lift door open to helping a stranger put on a shirt, how far will kindness of Japanese people go. Also, history does have an influence on how the culture of the country becomes, all which I have no idea of. Too many things to find out, too little time to do so.. Maybe these answers will show themselves to me soon..
