OH-YEAH list vol. 1

I listed very small experiences, actions and happenings that should be occurring to many people. It is called aruaru-neta in Japanese. I don't know how to call it in English, so I asked in the office and concluded to call it OH-YEAH. It is not worth talking about deeply, but many people can sympathize the feeling.

 

I don't know whether you can catch what I am trying to, but this is a list I come up today.

 

These are actions you unconsciously do, everybody should have experienced.

- I cannot help saying "AHHHH" in front of the electric fan.

- I cannot help making one sting of a fork into macaroni when eating.

 

These are mistakes that many people should have experienced sometimes.

- Looking for a TV remote control, which is sitting just in front of you.

- Unwrapping a candy and throw the candy to the trash can and holding the wrap in a hand.

- The thing you thought your mobile phone in your bag was actually a TV remote.

- Looking for your glasses sitting on your forehead.

 

These are experiences that many people may have had.

- Thinking "Who is this?" when you hear your own voice recorded.

- You think "I can eat everything! Is it enough for me?" when you are so hungry before eating, but you actually cannot finish your portion. (Especially I am a type of person to order larger portion additionally and cannot finish even the original amount...)
