Ho-ly CRAP!
I am currently writing this in a net cafe in Shinjuku, in which the computers use not one but two screens. .>_> One is pretty much blank (I think it's used just for gaming), but the mouse pointer/cursor will go onto it if I move it over too far. ::blink:: It's so trippy.
So, today's lesson is: How To Feel As Out-Of-Place As Possible
Step 1: be a fat ugly American
Step 2: dress like a slob, even unintentionally, because all your clothes suck
Step 3: go anywhere in Ginza, Tokyo
.o_o
I don't think I was rich enough to even look around there.
But hey, at least now I can say I touched a thousand-dollar fur wrap, and a $90 change purse. =x
This did not stop me, however, from being, in the long run, the happiest chibi on the planet, for I finally got to do something I've wanted to do my whole life.
I bought an expensive French pastry...and ate it.
X3 X3 X3
Actually, I walked around with it all day, because I wanted to find the perfect setting to eat it, and that took a while. And I totally treated to bag like a baby as I carried it, not letting anyone bump into it or let it get crushed or anything. It was my precious. X3 And finally, here in Shinjuku, I found a quaint little outdoor cafe, where I bought a little moccachino and ate my cake. =3
It's the little things that make me stupidly happy. X3 Like cake.
Now with as giant and magical as Shinjuku is, I think I'm going to wait until tomorrow to explore around here further. My goal is to find the theater where Tenimyu is going to be before Monday, so I know right where to go, so I don't have ANY CHANCE of getting lost and missing the show. So I'll do that, then misc. wandering around, then eventually meet Hi-chan for coffee. (we were supposed to go to JUMP Festa together this weekend, but she got really sick, so isn't going, and I don't know where or why or how to go alone, so am not going to bother. but the hope is that she'll at least be able to drag herself out for coffee or something) ::nod nod::
Oooh~! And in Ginza I visited the Sony building, where I got to play with a bunch of awesome gadgets that aren't available to the public yet. X3 OMG, there were TV screens that were so crystal perfect that it was like looking through a window. .... A really really clean window. XD Too awesome. But the thing that entranced me most was the hand-held computer...thing. I mean, not like a...whatever those hand-held planners are called. And not like a blackberry thing... It was an actual, full computer, but tiny. I WANT! I could take that thing to school and surf the net during class and no one would be the wiser. XD
But alas, they weren't for sale; and even if they were I wouldn't be able to afford it.
Le sigh....
But CAKE! X3
