I lived 12 weeks with my Japanese Hostfamily in Fukuoka. It was a great time and everybody was nice to me, I really felt like a member of their family. Of course I wanted to thank them for everything and went to a Conbini to buy a special card. There are special cards with nice colored bows. But I choosed a card with a black bow and thought "Oh how decent this card style....it suits to my Hostfamily" and bought this one. I didn't know that this is used to announce somebody's death. When my Hostmother saw it she was like " Oh Mike I'm so sorry, who died? " I got the feeling that I made a big mistake ^^Oh no^^ !! Fortunately my Hostmother wasn't angry...she already knows that I'm a fool!
