Some unusual things I did this year, which happened for the first time (and some of them I hope for the last time, even though now I find them quite amusing):
-attend a wedding in China, where I was the only foreigner (this is accessory) and didn’t know the bride nor the groom. I got to know them on the very same day and drank for their love and health starting early morning.
-deal with an obsessive person who would stalk me in the workplace
-spend my birthday alone, by my own choice
-get officially hired
-manage to “steal” a deodorant tester from a supermarket. I wanted to buy a deodorant, but I couldn’t find it. After finding something that looked like one, I tried to read the instructions, but missed a sticker in capital letters saying TESTER / テスター (both in English and Japanese katakana). I only found out it some days after. The cashier didn’t say anything either, I am not even sure whether I paid for it or not, but who knows maybe I am a criminal by now.
Pretty good year so far and it is not even over.
