Here Goes Nothing

Well, first off, let me apologize for the name. i spent some time trying to think up a cool blog name(for example spelling something like ボクノメカラミタオサカ！(Osaka, from my eyes) all in Katakana,  but i fell back on the typical Matt in Osaka. But it's true, here I am, in Osaka. You may think its very different over here from where you are, and I must say, it is. So whats different? You get on buses from the rear doors instead of the front (hmm thats boring... think of something interesting) steering wheels are on the right side instead of the left (still not that shocking) Theres Vending Machines Everywhere!? Well i guess just the overall feel is different. Walking through the bustling Umeda area, biking through one of the quiet neighborhood streets, Noticing the Japanese people's incredible politeness and helpfulness, The food in itself. It's hard to pin down exactly what is differrent, but its certainly in the air. I have still not seen a real robot, which I will be looking for in the coming months.
