Haven't been doing much within the last few days. Jeh, Melissa, Roger, and Joyce all have gone back to the US leaving Peter, Iki, and me left in Japan. Before Roger and Joyce left though, we all went on a shopping spree in Kawasaki Mall. They bought so much items, they bought luggage as well to fit everything they just bought in it. I spent the most in one day on items so far. A new pair of pants, 2 t-shirts from http://www.graniph.com/ , a few stickers, more key covers as gifts, 2 Star Wars posters with a Japanese theme (You guys will love it), as well as a few Transformers action figures only available in Japan.
Today, I'm staying at Ella's place along with her BF, Terry. Before that, however, We met up at Asakusa, a city about an hour away from Iki's place. Apparently, there is a popular temple there that we visited. We then went to Akihabara since Terry had never gone there before. Nothing really new. We browsed computers and games while discussing tech stuff like iPhones, DS vs. PSP, and stuff like that.
We ate at a close by raman place. Not too surprising, it was packed with foreigners. I ordered the chicken teriyaki raman. It was pretty decent and they give a good amount of raman with it. After, we met up with one of Ella's friends. We went to a close by restaurant in which they ordered some drinks as well as a few snacks. The only thing that irked me was that the place was completely smoker friendly. Crap in a hat. This was my first completely smoker friendly place that I've dined at and I have to say I was completely irritable during that time. Why didn' we go to another place? Well, we didnt really smelled anything until we actually ordered. After that, people started lighting them up. Whatever, I couldn't wait to get out of there. Ella's place is pretty small. It's one room about twice the size of Tristan's room. It also has a pretty small bathroom.
