Japan Redux Day 4 - Tokyo failure
Jan. 2nd, 2008 12:14 pmToday was... a giant failure. -_- I thought I'd go along to Nakano Broadway, seeing as it's only a few stops from where I'm staying, but when I got there bloody Mandarake was still closed after New Year, so that basically took my whole day out, as I'd planned to go from there to the Mandarake in Ikebukuro. -_- I didn't even have my guide book with me, so I couldn't look up anything that might've been interesting (though, to be honest, I'm sure most of the attractions are closed anyway. So weird, everyone's on holiday for once, but there's nowhere for them to go!)
So I went to Shibuya, but I couldn't think of anything I really wanted, so I just bought one manga, and then I thought I'd go to Ikebukuro anyway but changed my mind and went to Akihabara and got another pressie for someone. Luckily when I stopped for a coffee I met a nice lady from Wisconsin and we chatted for quite a while as she waited for her sons. A conversation with a stranger was just what I needed today, as I was a complete wreck for a big portion of the middle of it. It'd be nice to have a day where the time I spend *not* thinking I'm about to die outweighs the time when I do feel like that. Seriously, it's a feeling that's absolutely impossible to explain and makes no sense, but it's so completely and terrifyingly real and I've been having it far too much recently. Still, it beats being depressed. Probably.
...I've just thought, I should've gone looked at Tokyo Tower. I've still never seen it! But maybe that's best, it's a very dangerous place, judging from a lot of anime etc.
Also, I'm confused - when exactly did Yoko become the member of K8 I find most attractive right now? ^^' All the solo con pics I've seen have been A+!
