#2 I leave my air conditioner on all the time.

No seriously.  All the time.  I'm sorry Japan.  I know that most people here grew up in this heat and humidity, but I did not. Just the thought of turning my A/C completely off during the day makes me want to cry a little.  I'm all for conserving energy, but I will have to find other places to do it.

#1 I sometimes wear shoes inside my apartment

It's true.  I frequently stand at the genkan (aka entrance to the apartment) after having successfully put on my shoes -without falling over!- and suddenly realize I have left something inside my apartment.  It is at this point that I run -as if doing it quickly somehow makes it better- through the apartment, shoes still on, muttering apologies to Japan as I grab whatever item I forgot. I blame this on my American shoes for being too difficult to get on and off and my feet for being too big to fit into Japanese shoes.  I also blame laziness and a tendency to always be running late ><;
