Hello, I am a high school student in the United States. I have heard that it is normal to obtain an F1 visa to study at a public high school in the U.S., but I have heard that the F1 visa only allows you to study for one year. However, I would like to know if it is possible to study in the U.S. with a visa other than an F1 visa, or if there is another way to study in the U.S.? I heard that it is possible to study in a private high school for more than one year, but the tuition fee is...

As in Japan, if your parents are not paying taxes in the U.S. as a resident, you could not attend a public high school exchange student for more than one year, could you?
I think you would get more up-to-date information if you look for study abroad groups on the Internet or Facebook and exchange information with students.

By the way, the Los Angeles Unified School District has a FAQ on their website, so please use a translation tool to read it.

> Park and go near the consulate versus the amount you pay at the notary public. You should consider which is cheaper.

Showa Otouta-san has a Japanese passport, so he can prove his survival at the consulate.
Baikinman can't prove his existence at the consulate because he has already returned his Japanese passport.

Use your head and understand the difference.

If you also return your Japanese passport and clear your mind, you don't need a notary or consulate like Mr. Baijinman, you can prove your survival just by showing your electric bill.

You should consider which is cheaper.

> I'm a senior citizen, but I'm not a "senior citizen" and I joined LA Fitness a few years ago.

LA Fitness also has a senior-friendly cardio/strength ・ class that is not muscle-building oriented and I prefer to take this class. I can keep up with most of the action. However, I have no sense of dance at all, so some of the moves are not in rhythm for a minute.

This class meets twice a week and there is also a yoga class, but it is late in the afternoon and not convenient for me, so I have only attended one class. The yoga class is good, too.


> I would be happy to know which gyms you have franchised across the US if possible

Is that because you travel a lot in Japan? I've been retired for over 10 years now, and of course I never travel far from this town, so my current LA Fitness, which is 5 minutes away if there is no traffic light, is all I need.

This is my first time using this section. 

I would like to start renovating my bathroom & kitchen, etc., but I am a complete novice and have no idea where to start.
I have a limited budget, so I wanted to gather some "basic flow" and "useful information" before taking action.

Therefore, I would like to ask for your experiences and any other useful information you may have to share. Thank you very much.

For example.
・ Are Lowe's and Home Depot places for people who can decide on their own design, ? or ?
・ What is the budget difference between having a renovation company do the work and relying on Lowe's and the like? & Do you know if there is any difference in the finished product ?
・ Is there any way to know if the price quoted is reasonable or not? <2265> ・ Do you have any information that we should know about ! ?
・ Do you know if there is a big exhibition hall where we can see and compare the actual products ?
Do you have a carpenter who will come? ? ( Do you have anything we should prepare for the carpenters and others who will come to the show Drinks? Tipping is required ? )

I'm sorry, I don't understand a lot of things.
If there is anything I should know before taking action, or anything I should be aware of after taking action, please let me know.

Thank you very much.

My son is 50 years old, but he was born and raised here.

He has friends in the construction industry, and when we wanted to fix a part of our house,

he would bring someone from that industry to help us.

Also, once when we needed a painter, the house next door had a total exterior paint job done and

the workmanship was so-so that we asked them to do it for us too.

After all, we are afraid to ask a stranger, including Japanese-American relations, if we do not have some kind of reference.

Not necessarily.
I hear that if they advertise, they charge more for the work they do, and they charge more even if the work is not done properly.

If the quality is good without advertisement like Chateraise, it will be advertised by word of mouth of customers. The price is reasonable because they don't have to pay for advertisement.

I hear that if you pay for advertising, you get a fee on top of that, and even if you do a reasonable job, you get a fee as well.

Whether or not the work is done properly, any advertising costs are ultimately borne by the customer. If it's a huge advertising fee, like putting it on TV, they're probably unknowingly burdened with hundreds or thousands of dollars in advertising fees for remodeling-type jobs with high unit costs. There are a few people like Showa-era ototsuan who don't understand anything and are deceived.

Thank you all. As Baikinman said, I have seen houses nearby that have been constructed and thought they were nice. There was a house in my neighborhood that had been completely renovated, outside and inside, almost everything except the frame.

Even in the middle of construction, until the curtains went in, you could somewhat see the inside from the outside ( and the entrance & from the street side and the living room with kitchen was visible just by walking around normally. )
Every time I walked past there ( I thought, "The construction company here might be polite. ) I thought to myself. 
Before → After was surprisingly different. ( Including the exterior )

However, it was a private contractor, or they spent a lot of time. 
It seemed to be a freshly purchased renovation or had a separate residence, so I am sure the long term would not have been a problem.

I sometimes wondered if it would be easy to visit the house and inquire about the construction company if the need arose.
I thought it would be very rude and did not take action.  I probably won't do it in the future. 

I wish my neighbors would do it =. ) I am hoping that the neighbors who have been in contact with us will be able to do it .

Hello.
Do you all have any trouble with private sales ?
I bought a large electrical appliance and had a certain shipping company
keep it for me.
When I had it delivered, I received a completely different old item.
When I was surprised and told them it was different, they rushed to contact me, but
another person brought the one I had purchased. If I hadn't said anything, it was the old one as it was.
Later I realized that the one I had purchased looked like it had been used a while ago.
Is this kind of thing possible ??

This is a case of taking stored goods out of the company's warehouse without permission and reselling them
.
Nowadays, as in the past, there is no such thing.
Employees check the trunk of their cars every day when they leave.
Lunch is also checked 100% of the time when leaving the parking lot. I worked in a logistics
warehouse. I worked in a warehouse in a logistics company, and we had to deal with all sorts of things: SONY, TORAY, Morinaga snacks, Otafuku
and if we were found out, we would be fired.

Showa Ototsan is a very successful young businessman

and has continued to devote himself to the development of the Nikkei community after his retirement.

One of the members of the Rotary Club ・ he belonged to at the time was Kim Man Bae. He was on a
pilgrimage in Japan but was not satisfied and is now on his way around the world on a luxury cruise ship.

Although he has retired from the front line, he has outsourced the manufacture and sale of "Showa no ototsan" brand high-end open-collared
shirts(20,000円) to a Japanese supplier during the summer months. He is also a bitco
in investor and landlord.

He says he is busy every Sunday, but in reality, he is quite busy. He hates cheap PCs and uses Macintosh.
