By the JR Shinjuku Station

Oct 20, 2008 02:07

So I decide to go in search for Jr shinjuku station today. It actually isnt that far of a walk from the hotel. As you walk further into the city you see more and more interesting fashions. I saw plenty of gothic lolitas and punks at the station today. Oh and if you dont know I have a deep attraction for asian boys with bleach blonde hair. I saw plenty of those today too. The layered look is very popular here. I love layers too but its 80 degrees out. Mostly everyone you see is wearing a dress with pants under then a long sleev shirt under that. Oh and you cant forget your knit beenie. Oh and dont forget your wool scarf. How do you not die in that? Its sad though because i brought close to layer. I still wear it but thats what i brought. Its so hot out but you must look fashionable.You seem to start walking like everyone in tokyo once you get around alot. First thing you have to do is walk fast like you have somewhere very important to be and you cant be late. Im sure that most of these people do have things to attend to but please dont run over me with your bikes as you do so. Everyone seems to know when the pedestrian like will turn green too. You just start walking with the crowd like in NYC. I have yet to take a picture of the vending machines and yet i keep buying everything from them. Todays latest discovery is Pocari sweat. It really does taste like sweat. I reccomend you stay away from that. I thought it was just a mineral water but who knows whats in that perhaps real sweat?

Gaming time
I found some arcades today and I couldnt resist to play crane games. I cant resist when Im back home and they have crappy prizes. But here.. OMG EVERYTHING IS CUTE. I spend 5 dollars trying to get a damn gloomy bear. I could probably go to mori chax shop and buy a bad ass one. But I wanted to win! In the arcade there are about 3 floors. First floor consists of crane games, Taiko drum and thats it. Second level has shooting games, racing games and print club! I didnt go into the second floor because I was stuck trying to take pictures in every photo booth I could. It was boring at first without a buddy but then I just got into it and couldnt stop.

Here are some pics i took while by the station today.
