![]() ![]() It will always seem like there is some sort of unattainable ideal surrounding it. I'll be surprised if I don't think so for the rest of my life. I know, no matter what, that I'll be regretting how I wasted my summer again next year. I've romanticized the idea so much that I am left feeling disappointed in myself for not taking advantage of a season. I've always wanted summer to be some big, monumental, exciting thing. We always over-book ourselves, so when it finally ends, we look back and things are a blur. I didn't take up a new hobby or go on a road trip. I didn't see any of my friends from high school this summer. The trickiest part isn't always the driving itself, but confusing the turn signal with the windshield wipers.Īdmittedly, The Office and Friends are both wonderful ways to spend time, but they aren't things that I'm excited about. After driving in car where the steering wheel is on the right in Japan, it can be difficult to adjust back to driving a car in the States. They drive on opposite sides of the street.Īlthough it may seem to be an obvious difference, it can be tricky adjusting to the other side. The extra mile that Japanese workers put into customer service is amazing and something I miss from the Land of the Rising Sun. In Japan, they offer to clean your windshield and escort you back onto the road, even stopping traffic if you have to cross lanes. While in Jersey, they simply put gas in your tank. ![]() Although both Jersey and Japan have gas station attendants that help to pump your gas for you, their functions are quite different. On the flip side, drivers in Jersey often get upset and frustrated, which is something I wasn't excited to return to after leaving Japan. Rather than getting upset when driving in rush hour traffic, everyone sucks it up and understands that we are all in the same boat and there's nothing that can be done but wait it out. In Japan, the drivers expect traffic and have pretty much come to terms with it. Everyone's overall attitude about traffic is different. Another food chain, Burger King, may have better fries than both of these, but BK is not in this battle.ġ. Ironically, even though the salty flavor is so much stronger, if you look up the nutritional value you will find that Wendy's fries have MORE salt in them. McDonald's fries are much more salty which may come as a good or bad thing to you. Wendy's fries are bigger in size, but also more expensive. McDonald's french fries are known for how small they are. The burger patty itself has a great taste, though not as juicy as the Wendy's burger. No mayo on these burgers, but an appropriate amount of ketchup, white onions, mustard, and cheese. The good thing about many of McDonald's burgers is that they put them in a tiny box, meaning they will not get smashed. ![]() They also have an extremely larger amount of ketchup and mayo on them. The burger I had from Wendy's seemed to have an excessive amount of red onions. Wendy's has the signature square patty, while McDonald's is known for sesame seeds on the bun. ![]()
