Travel - 25 September 2007

I'm looking for advice from people living/with living experiance in Japan. I've done some research already, but would like to know any tips/things I should be aware of when I move there.

I've lived in Canada my whole life and would also like to know if there is things that would be found offensive in Japan that would not be an issue here? I want to make this experiance as smooth as possible and would love some advice.

I currently live in Illinois, so I know right off the bat that my chances of getting in without being a California resident are decreased. I've always loved California and San Diego particularly and I am really considering going there. I want to major in communications to work in public relations. I have a 3.3 GPA (not the best) but I have taken lots of honors/AP courses and I also do/have done a lot including Orchestra, Cheerleading, FCCLA, FAST, Builders club, Drama club, Girl scouts and more. I am currently a junior so I've been thinking about this stuff a lot lately.

Any advice or thoughts would really be appreciated.
Thanks

My friends and I are 19 and are planning to take a cruise somewhere around Mexico for spring break. Which cruise lines will let us do so without having an adult travel on board with us? If not, are there any exceptions?

they're coming in from Canada and it will be their first trip to Los Angeles. What are some things I can plan for them to do to have a fun trip. My uncle is in his 60's and his wife is in her 50's. They've been married since the 70's (not certain which year) so i'm not sure which anniversary it is exactly... any suggestions... they'll be here this Saturday and staying through next Friday the 5th. Cheers

What is the brand of coffee that you drink and have on stock?

For me, right now, it's Maxwell House, Selection. Costs SR15/bottle.
Used to be "Colombiano", from Columbia, which I could get for less
than SR10, but now it's off the market. It's from Columbia, but
probably, Nescafe either ate up the firm, or it's gone under.

I also miss "Maxim's", which has been off the market here for a long
time. Is it still available in places like Houston, or Australia?

But what I really miss is "Kapeng Barako", wrapped in newspaper.
Or, Blend Forty Rice - which is really uncooked rice, but made to
blacken on the pan.

For me it's Jasmine Scented White Rice from Thailand. Although on the label, it say's in bold letters "Wag-Wag"
Most rice fromThailand bear also words like "Milagrosa". Could this be becuz they got the grains from us and grew them better in Siam? Whatever.

We oftentimes refer to them as "Triple A", becuz it is also written
on labels in the small sack.

Sometimes, I use Calrose, in plastic packs. I think this comes from
California, but I am not sure.

What do you consider being "freedom of speech" ? When Ahmadiejad is denying the holocaust or when Danish cartoons of the prophet Muhammad (pub) are pubished?

I do know that the Holocaust happened. No doubt about that. I just would like to find out where people draw a line.

What is freedom of speech?
