Hi!!

I agree with Ana when she says about teenagers being similar...In Japan uniforms are obligatory too...

Uniforms... all public schools in Japan wear uniforms, I think. These come in several basic varieties: for boys, it is usually the black pants and jacket with gold button down the front and a white shirt inside, or sometimes it is a sort of suitlike thing. For girls, it is a "kon" (a kind of dark blue) or grayskirt, with either a sailor top or a white shirt and matching vest.These vary in detail from school to school, and so you can tell what school people you meet on the street go to.

With this information we can say that teenagers in this two countries are not the same when we talk about school uniforms, but they can be similar in their school life too?

In the next post I'll put some informations about japanese school life...
