Smurf Sized

For reasons unknown to me, Japan lives in miniature. People are pint sized. I have never ever felt tall in my life, until I came to Japan. In Japan I am a giant. Some of the women here are so tiny their waists are smaller than one of my thighs. I cant help but wonder where they keep their organs. Apparently they don't need much food either since everything comes in Smurf sized amounts. You can buy half a sandwich, they fill a thimble when you ask for a small coffee, a bottle of orange juice is almost a mouthful, you don't need a spoon for a tub of yoghurt, potatoes come in packs of 3 wrapped in 3 layers of plastic and you buy your bread in loaves of 3, 6 or 8 slices with the crust pre-removed (clearly the reason why no-one in Japan has curly hair).
