Watch this video to believe that ninjas do exist.
The Japs really know how to entertain themselves.

Met my colleagues from the Japan not too long ago and found them to be a really stressed up bunch of people... Happiness to them is that biru after work. That is, if they knock off in the first place. I heard they work long hours into the night. So much so that they are reluctant to make "going home earlier" a resolution to upkeep in the new year.
We had a communication skills workshop and had to pair up for activities. At the end of it was a peer rating exercise. The Jap pair rated each other "1" and "2" respectively on a scale of 1 to 10. Another Jap who paired up with my Singaporean colleague rated her a "5".
The Japs are a very unfriendly bunch of people aren't?!
Later, they explained that, "seh-ben isz bery bery goouod in jeeapanees... liker pur-fact".
The rest of us from Taiwan, Korea and Singapore happily rated each other between 7 to 9. We probably felt that our partner were just average with room for improvement. Show face mah.. especially meeting for the first time...
Should I be glad that there are other people who are stressed if not more stressed than me? Hahaha...
