EWW I lived in Tsukuba for a year!!
Its like.... Irvine O_O.

Sorry you had to stay there, lol. At least theres a Jusco and a new mall, oh and they have a train now too (wasn't there when I lived there, I think they just finished it in August... I left in July)
You went to a local shrine in Tsukuba? You didn't happen to climb mount Tsukuba to go to that shrine? It snowed last year when I went, but it was totally fun! lol *black ice memories... cringe*

Haha it's not so bad. After the hectic life of Tokyo, slowing down isn't so bad at all. :)

Yah, I just went to the new mall today and took the train from Tokyo to here and it was really fast, only about a 20 min trip via the Rapid.

We went to two shines, and thankfully none of them were on mountains! X-D

It's cold, but no snow or ice, yay! :D

Happy New Year!

Hehehehe, I have the academic charm too. It's on my laptop case. I got it at Kinkokuji in Kyoto.

Hehe, I put it on my backpack.

We were planning to go to Kyoto, but we sort of didn't get around to it. Oh well, just plans for next time!
