I rarely remember my dreams, but I recently dreamt that I was sitting by my computer, doing reviews in Anki. Unfortunately, the cards were still there when I woke up. ò_ó

I one had a dream that people were saying し　instead of  と　to list things, The thing is this was before I learned that usage for し so when I found out I was like

BTW the tone of this thread seems to imply that 白人　＋　日本に住んでいる　＝　日本人の彼女

I actually have a draem every single night, and I only forget them if I don't immediately start thinking about it when I wake up. Such as if i wake up and go to the bathroom without thinking about it I'll more than likely forget 99% of it.

If you arn't having dreams everynight I'd like to ask you, how long are you sleeping for? I used to never get dreams in highschool and such cuz I only slept like 4-6 hours a night. I sleep around 7-8 hours now adays, and ever since i've started this much healthier habit I started having a dream every night.

Though to contradict my advice, I have had dreams while napping for 1 to 2 hours, so not sure how much it relates to the amount of sleep you get. Anyways, only know what I've experienced myself.

All humans have several dreams during every sleep. But dreams are stored in short term memory, and generally clear out by the time one wakes, as there's a decent transition period between the level of sleep where you can dream and the point of waking (or should be). The only way to remember a dream is to wake up early in the cycle (best if in the actual middle of a dream). Even in this case, the dream will remain in short term memory only and vanish within several minutes/hours if you don't consciously go over all of the facts of your dream again while awake.
The funny thing about this comes if you attempt lucid dreaming. It sounds non-intuitive, but you could train yourself to lucid dream and have several lucid dreams in any given night, but be totally unaware of it by the time you wake up. This is why lucid dreamers often set alarms in the middle of one of their REM phases.

I totally agree with this. I hate having to sleep. But I find it's much better to just get the necessary sleep, because the waking moments will be much better for it.

On the other hand if you think they hand them out at the airport then you might be in for a big shock once you get here.  In that case I suggest the following formula is more accurate:
白人 + バーとかクラブとかパーティなどに行く + 日本人の女の子と話す = 日本人の彼女

... but at least living here is optional and sometimes so is speaking Japanese.

Mine met me at the airport, but that was after we started dating. And your formula didn't say you had to speak Japanese, just speak with They don't really care what you're saying anyway, once they see your bright blue eyes and sandy blonde hair.

And what's with all the love for 白人、what about 黒人？ They get plenty of love too.

I think 黒人 get much more love than 白人 simply because, aside from military bases, their numbers are few.  That which is rare is most passionately sought after.

An African tout tried to chat up my 6 month pregnant wife a few months ago in Roppongi.  I would think if he got his fair share of women he probably wouldn't be desperate enough to hit on a pregnant woman.

Some choice lines included "Let's go have lunch, I'll buy you a watch."

Some cultures like big women.

Sorry for re-starting this thread again.

But I recently had a dream, where me and my friend were in a supermarket place. And this japanese girl starts talking to us. My friend seems to just giving that clueless expression and walking away. While I'm just listening to everything she's saying. Surprisingly the dream was all in japanese(well in audio at least).

Plus just today, I had another one where it was all spoken as well. Pretty interesting.

I think it's due to me listening to japanese almost all day long.
