10:50 AM Saturday May 5, 2007 - Tokyo Green Hotel
I'm having so much fun! OK, recap of all that's happened so far:
1. Check-in. This hotel is too cute. The rooms are tiny, but since I'm tiny, too, it's perfect. LOL! Surprisingly, they had yukatas ready on my bed! I'm wearing one now. ^_^ Not only, but also, the bathroom has a bidet! So fresh and so clean (clean)!
2. Went to Tachikawa to meet with Tiffany. We walked around 'til we found a cool little shabu-shabu restaurant. OMG soooooooooo gooooooooooood! I was so glad Tiffany was with me cuz I had NO idea what the hostess was saying. Tiff basically did all the ordering. Man, the shabu-shabu was delish. We had pork and beef to dip in our pot. We also got a whole bunch of veggies. I tried a bunch and they were all good, too. Too bad I don't know what they were called. Before Tiff and I parted ways at Tachikawa station, we got these two girls to take our pictures. LOL. Too bad there wasn't a purikura machine around.
3. SUBWAY. I love it! It's pretty easy. You would only mess up if you weren't paying attention to your surroundings, which happened this morning. Whoops. It's all good, tho.
4. Akihabara. I got off there when I came from the airport. As soon as I stepped out into Electric Town, I was greeted by the bright lights and cosplaying maids of Akihabara. LOLOL! There were other misc characters about, too.
5. This morning I went to Tsukiji, but... I guess since today is a holiday, it was DEAD. I did get my sushi breakfast, tho. SO GOOD, SO FRESH.
6. Kappabashi. OK, that sucked cuz again, I gues since it was holiday, everyone stayed closed. Oh, but I was there at like, 7:45 AM and most stores didn't open 'til 9. D'oh! I walked around the area like three times. I found an am-pm and noticed they had the BLT mag with Morning Musume in it! I bought it, of course. Finally some stores opened. The one I was looking for, Maizuru, that sold food samples was open. I WAS gonna buy stuff from there but GODDAMN they're expensive!!! Magnets were like 1000¥... I was like "Screw this, I'll just take a picture." Maybe I can find stuff at Nakamise when I meet with Hide-chan.
7. OMG Yay! I finally get to meet TWIN!
8. Why am I numbering everything? Anyway, it's fecking hot. Well, I've experienced hotter, but it's hotter here than how it's been at home. Kinda nice. Oh, but it was SO nice last night. Warm enough to just wear shorts and a t-shirt, and there was the occasional breeze. SO damn nice.
OK, time to get ready to INVADE with TWIN! Ja ne...
