Reading (For Dummies): Graduacion and Pregnant Brides

Graduacion and Pregnant Brides

The obligatory bike riding photos

So I went riding on my Trek. It feels a little better to ride actually, since it's bigger (and probably because its fork didn't explode...). Also this weekend was a little cock festival at Ted's house.

And of course, there was a graduation. I missed commencement (I was going to scream something very loud in Japanese for Takiguchi-san). Luckily her dad made it over.

It should be noted that Yukiko is the only adult. After all, the "age of adulthood" is 26 years old now. What I find most interesting about this statistic is that the average age of marriage is 25.7. Average age of first child is 26.2. A little math shows there's only 6 months between marriage and first kid being born (on average).

Thanks for the memories

Ha! Mr. statistics huh?
Since there are now many couples going childless; and many people are getting married later, it might make since statistically. The percentage bracket of younger married couples (say 17-24) may compose a much larger percentage of child-bearers, skewing the results.
