Summer Vacation Countdown: 6

Kicked it with Val and her host sister and her host sister's husband today. Went to a Japanese Tea Garden in Makuhari and had tea ceremony green tea. The Japanese garden wasn't really all that. I think the Japanese gardens in Portland and Hayward are way better.

After that, went all around Tokyo. We went to Ometesando, a really nice shopping area. One of the Rodeo drives of Tokyo. After that, went to Harajuku. I think it's safe to say that it's the Tokyo Berkeley. Saw all these girls dressed up as dolls and a lot of other girls with their face painted and even some serious goth girls. They have some pretty interesting things there. There's this one perfume/cologne store that is really cheap. Probably 30% off from the prices back home. I also saw a lot of hip hop stores that might be future candidates of the Buddhapparel line. I need to talk to Yu first, to see what stores are actually legit enough to have our line.

After that we drove around Ginza and Ami was telling me that it's her favorite place! Ginza being one of the most expensive shopping areas in Tokyo, one can infer that she is kanemochi (rich). Her father is a dominant figure in the Democratic party in Japan. He's good buddies with Koizumi sori (The Prime Minister of Japan). Following the drive through Ginza, we headed back to Makuhari for some dinner. Went to this restaurant and had all kinds of food and drink. We all got pretty drunk...and can you guess what we did afterwards??? We went to the Sega arcade next door. So you know I had to represent. This is for Jookie, Spamajama & Pogiscruff..."You chose me, so represent the skills!" Yo!!! I wasted Sho, Ami's husband in racing then we went to this surfing game. Wasted him. Then I tried to play some Tetris....man...words of advice...Tetris is a pretty tough game when you're inebriated!!! Other than fact that Ami was throwing fruit flavored ice into my mouth while I was playing, I didn't get pass level 9!!! We then proceeded to the Purikura (Sticker pics) stands. It's a pretty interesting experience trying to take purikura with 4 drunk people. I'll try to post the pics shortly.

Anyhow...we finally called it a night and I hopped on the train back home. On the train ride back home, even in my drunken state, I noticed this old man who was drunk off his @$$!!! He was tryin' to change cars and literally fell on this couple and stayed on the ground for like 5 minutes!!! Everyone on the train was looking with disgust. The old man finally got his bearings and made his way to the seat however he didn't sit down for some reason. He was just swaying while holding on to one of the poles! I guess it's something ya'll have to experience. Since I never really rode BART all that much, I really have no basis to this situation.

Well...I think I've said enough. I got work tomorrow and need to get some rest.

Kaz out...
