How are people able to run blogs at this site?

I have tried repeatedly over the months going back and double checking everything meticulously before "Creating" but this blog refuses to accept anything I attempt publishing. I have posted several initial posts and have done the EXACT same thing but am being refused telling me "unable to save." Is there a secret coded message here or something I am missing? Are there a specific amount of hyper links that we are limited to? What's the max wording on any one blog? Is it my browser? What about my moniker, maybe this site is rejecting my moniker name? I mean, damn, what gives here? It was so frustrating that I deleted this blog bookmark and then after several months attempted posting just now. Same damn thing. I'll be damned if i can figure this out.

    Have you emailed the team directly? Are you leaving your browser open a long time? The only time I ever had a problem is when I left a post half written, came back hours later and tried to finish and post it. If I need time to finish an article I write it on Word first then copy and paste over. I hope you can figure it out or get some help from the team.

    It seems that from February to May, you posted quite a lot. Did you update your computer, change browsers, or make any other major changes around the end of May that could be conflicting with the website? Also, like Saitama said, the support team is really the best place to go with this. Good luck!

    I had the same issue in #SummerInJapan Campaign. The things which I have noticed is, When you upload big images it takes time to upload, and resize to screen.So if you are uploading many images just wait for each 1 or 2 images , until they resize as screen size.If you still find difficulty try to email admin directly on email or on there facebook page, and I am sure they will reply back to you :)

Fears in Japan that you didn't have in your home country?

I've written a number of blogs here on City-Cost about how bears are a real worry in my area these days, and it's something that I didn't have to concern myself with in my home country. I know people talk about snakes and spiders in Australia being deadly (and yes, there are some types that are), but they're not typically going to come and attack you unprovoked. Also, it's a lot easier to outrun a snake or a spider than a bear ;) I'm curious about the rest of you, if you have fears here that maybe weren't present in your country of origin. Let me know in the comments!

Christmas - shopping, meals, etc. - how are we faring?

I saw a press release this morning from FamilyMart, which promoted their festive season eats but also covered a survey about spending. The survey mentioned most people planning to celebrate Christmas at home aim to spend less than 5,000 yen on food. How does your budget look in comparison to that? Do you go all out for Christmas here if it was something you celebrated in your home country, or is it a quieter celebration owing to it not being an official holiday here? How about Christmas shopping? Have you got strict budgets in place, and have you completed your shopping or are you still looking for bits and pieces for people?
