Allooo, pater. Today was a tiiiiiiiiired day. Went roung a huge science museum calles Miraikan and saw robots and other stuff but I felt rather stupid having no idea what anything was (the Japanese wasn`t the problem - it was the science!) and then we went to this car thing about design, I don`t know. I was too zoned out. We saw from the train the place where Arashi film their TV shows.
After that we had Soba in soy broth for lunch and went to Akihabara. It`s called Electric Town for a reason!
Everything was like flashing and it was so cool. We went to a maid cafe! Haha, it was so funny and surreal. They kept using `-sama` instead of `-san` which was really odd, but I guess it goes with the whole subservient vibe. Had coffee and they do this thing where they do a little dance and put love in your cup. So I had coffee with extra love.
They sell electronics and CDs and reels and reels of wire. It was so unlike anything I`d ever seen before!
Came back here, had sushi and fruit (again) for tea. Went out to Karaoke! It was loads of fun but only like 4 of us were willing to sing, which was a bit rubbish. Now we`re back at the hotel.
I am usually like zonked during the day, especially on the train, but I wake up in the evening, which is exactly the wrong time to feel awake!
Tomorrow we have a free day so we are dressing up in all our loligoth finery (including cat ears) and going to Harajuku and Shibuya (have located the shops I wanna go in) and it should be fuuuuun.
Tokyo is amazing. I want to stay. I know I`m a country girl, but I could really make an exception for here. I`ve seen so many places I wanna go in the future when I live here. So, yeah, book a plane ticket for yourselves, ASAP!
Tomorrow is the last night *weep weep weep*. I want to see you guys but I DO NOT WANT TO LEAVE JAPAN. Ever! It`s just like any other country, just with the awesome factor switched upto 11.
The food is so good and everyone is so beautiful and everything works!
The only bad part is the Gaijin Stare! EVERYONE here is Japanese! It is nothing like England where you get people from allover. We proper stick out here and get stared at all the time. It really annoys me because I just wanna come here and live like anyone else but you just get oggled constantly. It feels a bit like you don’t fit in!
It’s still amazing though and well worth living here. Maybe when I am surrounded by Japanese friends or I have like black hair or something then I won’t get stared at so much!
Peace out!* I love you all!*
