A couple of these I did naturally before even watching anything Asian. I naturally bow to people when I greet them. Been doing that since I was little. (Although, I've always been very polite.) I used to be fascinated by some of their popular hairstyles, although that was mostly because I had some exchange student friends. And they talked about it. I think I've been eating ramen since I was like 2 or something. I wear scarves and gloves when it's cold out, but I've always done that. The only one that I seem to have trouble with is chopsticks sometimes. When I see them use chopsticks in a drama, it does make me want to get better at it. I somehow feel like I'd offend someone if I'd just say a phrase in Japanese when I'm out and about. I am learning the language, and it's great for it. Very interesting list, though.

Yep, I do. :) Well, it really depends on the place you're from, even in my state. Seattle's (which is close to where I live) known for Sakura Con. A huge anime convention. There's quite a large Asian population over there, so there's a lot of fun and interesting cultural events, restaurants, etc. related to them. In the town I actually live in, they're not as into Asian culture. Went to college on the eastern side of the state, and surprisingly, a large number of people were into anime, manga, Asian music, food, etc. So, that's pretty much where I was exposed most to Asian things. I haven't been to a convention yet. But, would love to in the future.

That's great! The feeling after exams can be such a relief. That's even better to have even more time to watch dramas! Well, at the moment I'm watching Monsters, about to watch the Hana Yori Dango special, and Cartoon Kat-tun. I know the last is a variety show, but it's hilarious. Monsters is really funny too, but kind of campy. Hana Yori Dango the series, was pretty good. (Felt like an emotional roller coaster.) I haven't started any of the new shows yet. Hope to soon.

Thanks for the add! We seem to like the same actors. That's cool! :D
I think it'd be a much more interesting list if it was like beautiful women 50+ or even in their 40s. 20s through 30s, is when you're in your 'prime' as they say. 30 or so is not old. But, still nice to see. And, maybe make some lists of other women from different countries and maybe some of the guys too. Very interesting idea, though.
