I miss Japan. I had the best time ever. It wasn't my first time in Japan, but it was my first time in Tokyo.
I stayed with Colfax for 5 days, and 4 nights.My trip wouldn't have been fun without her. She's the best
She has an apartment to herself on the country side of Tokyo(about an 1hr away from the city).  Its small but extra cozy.
When I arrived at the Narita airport, man was I freaking out. Its super confusing, the signs are of no help, the best thing to do is just follow the herd. haha. honestly though. Anyway I eventually found her that day .. obviously, otherwise I wouldn't be writing in my journal right now.
The shopping was the best, the food was heaven, the weather was cold likeand the technology crazy. First off, everything was my size, THANK GOD,  I don't get clothes that easily here on Guam. We had soft cream or some sort of desert like twice or more a day. If we weren't shopping we were stuffing our faces. Anyway, the rest of the entry are the with the pictures..enjoy!!!!!





her neighborhood



her apartment



her fridge



The Zoo  was a lot of fun, most of all because I got to see pandas. I've loved pandas for a long time, but it was my first time seeing a real one. 
 
 

there he is.. hehee isn't he cute. haha he was sleeping, well he looked up at one point, but then went back to sleep again.

 
 


 
 


 
 

then we saw rhinos, mingos, prairie dogs, llamas, pingus, giraffes, hippos, lions and tigers and bears oh my. 
yes that yak is doing a number 2.


The lights were so pretty. Like fake stars. Also the crosswalks are crazy, there are like a gajillion people walking at the same time.

 
 
 

 
 
 

shopping in the famous harajuku, shinjuku, and shibuya.

MORE FOOD!!


 

ever heard of curry or melon bread?? i have.

 

the strawberries were soooo sweet.


The train station was probably like my 2nd home while I was there. Its confusing as fuck, yet its still convenient.
 
 


 


 

also they have lockers, to put all your shopping bags in as you hop from city to city baggage free, convenient right?
                 

other innovations.. the drink machines, the toilets and the sinks. a wash, soap and dry all in one area.


 
 

..and I made it in time for the SAKURA.. and tulips, etc.. they're so pretty.
 
 
 


 
 
 

shops, stores, and sights

 
 
 
 
 


 

The best soccer store in the world...KAMO soccer shop.

 

its where i bought my first pair of exprensive cleats.. hehe, what bought me is that its made and sold only in japan. hey "when in japan"
there's actually more significance to the store. while we were there, there was this one guy that always helped us, and it was probably one of the best customer service we had in japan, i mean he convinced me to buy the cleats right? anyway, 2 days after I left, colf told me that he called her and told her that he had two tickets to a J-LEAGUE(japanese soccer league)  :FCTokyo vs. Jef
Unitedgame, and he was giving it to us, but i left!! man.. it would have been my first proffessional game. But colf went..WITH  the guy. haha.... I knew he liked her.


 

and here's colfax's school, Temple University, japan. 


..AND THERE YOU HAVE IT. my FIVE days in JAPAN. hope the pictures don't take too long to load. haha.
