If it is your number, you should get rid of it immediately. More to the topic: I'm living in an area where there are a lot of earthquakes; an area near to San Francisco. (If you're not familiar with it, it is almost famous for it's earthquakes) There are natural disasters almost everywhere in the world. Of course, you could live life running away from them... Or you could keep it at the back of your mind and do something productive or even fun. I recommend the latter.;) |
Earthquakes reach the news abroad so you may get the impression that many people die from them, but in my 3 years in Japan, the number of casualties has been low (sadly I probably wouldn't be saying that if I lived in China right now).
Most modern homes have some sort of shock-absorbing foundations (even some old wooden temples do, amazingly). Having said that, I think they are expecting a big one in the Kanto area (around Tokyo) sometime in the next decade or so. Hope I wrong on that one. |
i want to live in japan to but, its hard for me to read the kanji ToT and i'm trying to learn japanese

Get a good book, and start with the Joyo Kanji, or another method to make it systematic. NEVER GIVE UP.
Study every day and don't give up, meet Japanese online, in person, or practice with anime or Japanese dramas and keep working. Take college courses if they're available, but whatever you do, don't give up. If you stay persistent you'll learn a language. Humans learn language naturally, and if you don't dwell on your difficulties and keep at it, you'll learn. Good luck! |
This thread is great for beginners to learn to recognize a troll!

I've felt many earthquakes over the years, but the worst ones I remember occurred when I lived in LA. These were the bad earthquakes which hit in 1992 and 1994. There was extensive damage, and quite a few people were killed.
There was a pretty strong earthquake here in Japan last July. I was at my girlfriend's apartment (which is in a tall building in Tokyo), and we could feel the entire building swaying. That earthquake was centered some distance from Tokyo, near a smaller city, and that city suffered some fairly serious damage. I felt a couple small earthquakes here in Chiba a few weeks ago. They were strong enough to wake me from my sleep, but I just rolled over and went back to sleep again. |
