so japan has one-upped us on the commercialized holidays thing. cool.
Not quite, since often the chocolate is home made, not store bought. There isn't as much of a focus on bought gifts and cards as there is in the US.

Do you know who started White Day? ( I’m sure you do :D ) I only know because the trivia site explained it.

Where did she take Japanese?
They took it in their local HS.
The oranges of the island are like blazing fire
Amongst the emerald boughs
And the lemons are like the paleness of a lover
Who has spent the night crying.

I hope they offer it at dd’s HS. She’s going into middle school but she really wants to take Japanese. I think they might.

Hope she gets the chance. Think there are only two or three in our district for HS that offer the class.
