I'm back!!
Now I shall spam you with pictures of mostly... food.
So the summary for this journal is this:
I went to a land called, Japan, on the 19th autumn of my youth in search of destiny. However, It was after I was cast to a land far far away, that I have long lost my hopes and dreams. Every night I found myself tossing and turning, wondering where has my essence gone. Yes, I am sheltered and I am free to walk around the bounds of this country urging me to call it home. But my passion whispers to me day in day out across the seas.
So finally I decided to escape this cage of a sanctuary and followed the voices which beckon to me as I sleep.
Those unstable carriages flew me across the oceans which seem like forever. But when I step foot on my promise land, it showed me wonders which I thought was never possible.
So back to my normal way of telling stuff to you guys--- IT WAS AWESOME SHIT.
*WARNING BIG PICTURES* too lazy to resize them so sue me.
I started my journey with


Together we started in Canada. And had a connecting flight going to Seattle then to Narita Airport.
I SWEAR I'LL NEVER GET A CONNECTING FLIGHT EVER AGAIN!!! Northwest airlines keep changing gates with out warning and flights get cancelled with out earlier notice.
SO anyway, our first dilemma! We found out that our hotel resevation was a day late. We will have no housing for the first night!? I DONT THINK SO BABY!! so we tried calling --pay phones freaking expensive-- costs me about $15 to call Japan. Then at the middle of me changing the reservation dates--- I RAN OUT OF CREDIT and had to do it over again. SHIT SHIT SHIT.
But we got on the plane anyway, not knowing if we had to sleep in the airport the first day oTL
But oh hey we managed to get one some how so here's the first picture!
NIGHT VIEW IKEBUKURO, as I call it YAOI CITY. where fujoshi's (yaoi fans) dreams are all over the place and sources are everywhere, more frequent than 711s.

I dont remember accordingly where we went but I'll just summarize what I can think of...
FIRST OFF is....
my first breakfast.

LOL NO IM KIDDING.
We stayed at SUNSHINE PRINCE HOTEL which is mostly ideal because about 5 minute walk is the mall and the anime store and a language school and K-books and Mandarake which is second hand anime collection store, traders and doujinshi places.
We went to "ANIMATE" which is pronounced as "a-ni-mei-to" and I only have a picture of my first stash. I have about x4 more of these huhuhuh MY STUFFS -omnomnom-

and I'm so freaking happy that those collectors boxes which you get a random character i got...
OKITA!!!!!! from hakuoki IM SO FREAKING HAPPY NYAHAHHAHA altho i had to buy a lot =v= hm yeah. worth it.

I love the weird stuff I found in "TOKYU HANDS" which is a store with random stuff =v=
These are toilet paper O_O


lol yeah wipe ur ass with money nyahahah!!
SO yeah everywhere you go--- go get cake.

I MEAN THATS NOT MY POINT.
Every where you go, you get around by TRAINS.

EVery station has a distinct music. I like the music in "Takadanobaba" hahah
This is the entrance where you insert the ticket to get in and make sure to get it at the other side because you cant get out with out it hahaha

Tickets look like this, you get them in automated machines, you get the one worth where you are going ---duh oTL

SO anyway I will throw you random pictures and tell you about it...

Like this cake... oh yeah baby... you're my sexy uke tonight.
AHEM... I mean yeah...

One time we were going back from the hotel we saw this in front of the arcades! RILAKUMA!!! SO HUGE AND BIG HEADED HAHAHAHAH ILOVEIT! it was so cute... and was dancing

I WANT TO BRING IT HOME.
and that led to this...

I bought this PENCIL BOX TOO

WHich I stuffed with copics because they were CHEAP. AT least way cheaper than what I can get in Canada.

Ikebukuro has posters like this YAOI YAOI LOVE casually in their boards....

We also went to ASAKUSA which is the famous temple place, we got our fortunes told. It was 100 yen each so we paid 50yen each so we can share -_-;;; hhohoho

We were to meet in front of ANIMATE at about 10-11 but we didnt know what we looked like O_O;;; SO yeah... we stood there.... for the whole hour.... wondering if it's each other already hahaha oTL
Finally I asked in my stupid broken Japanese if she spoke English and sure it was MASA!!! hahahah
First we ate breakfast/ lunch in a ramen shop!


IT WAS DELICIOUS O__O
Then we went to Shibuya! To go see her manga school!!
IT WAS EPIC!!! SO FREAKING EPIC!!!
There was loads of walking, I'm not used to it because all I do in Canada is hibernate.
She talked to the front desk girl and I have no clue what they were talking about I was just following her around hahaha xDDD
and at some point O_O
we were being led to an office with lots of epic art around me
@_____@ WHAT IS THIS!?!?!? THEN THEN THEN
OH SHIT---
THE PRESIDENT WENT IN!!! (she was a cool looking rich looking refined aged lady)
HUH!?!?! WHY!!!?!??! I HAVE NO IDEA! OTL
All I know is I was scared lololol and nervous. Masa and her talked, Not sure what about but then she started asking me questions too and from what I could fish out I answered oTL URGH URGH MY FAILZ anyway I think it was clear that I still had to go to a language school first hahahah so yeah she took some records for me and a loot bag OvO;; of all about the school AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!! IVE NEVER BEEN SO EXCITED SCARED AND ANXIOUS IN ALL MY LIFE!!!
THAT MANGA SCHOOL---- IS THE BEST DREAM I EVER HAD----- I'LL MAKE IT REALITY!!!! >__<
We also went to animate in Shibuya and Masa helped me get the point card WAHAHAH FINALLY I HAVE ONE I SHALL FRAME IT IN CANADA (since I cant use it hahah oTL) and went to Mandarake and K-books!!

SO
then we went to SHINJUKU
We went to KINOKUNIYA which is a book store! I bought more artbooks there =v= and

Hakouki x2, Pixiv (Japanese DA), Minami Haruka, TogaInu no Chi, Sweet Pool, Pandora Hearts, etc.)
we also went to this art store called "SEKAIDO" WHICH HAS ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING!!!
Masa showed me the things they normally use to make manga, which is mostly tradition things like G pens where you even have to dip in ink, and there the tones you manually cut out and such
TAT I WAS STOKED IT WAS GORGEOUS AND MADE MY HEART BLEED WITH HAPPINESS

and Then before we separated she took us in a store which sold COPICS!!! AAAA DAMN COPICS I LOVE IT SO MUCH!!!

and got these GORGEOUS SEME TAKOYAKI THEY WERE HUGE AND ONLY 500 YEN! (about $5)


My last view of Ikebukuro before we left....
and then my last meal in the airport. with kralle's last coins....

I ended up with 67 yen in 5 and 1's =_=;; that's like...cents.
we ended up being delayed in portland on our connecting flight for 8 FUCKING HOURS!!!!!! because our original flight was cancelled with out notice we had to check the gates and saw the screen it said cancelled and had to go to information to get our tickets transfered and shit
I HATE HATE HATE CONNECTING FLIGHTS!!! specially to USA because you have to get your check in baggage again for customs and security.
I dont know what possessed me to have this....
It was risky because I had no american dollars, and both my credit cards were clean 0.
And it wasnt even worth it oTL

IT WAS AUTHENTIC FISH AND strike>CHEAPS CHIPS

and... the flight home.

and next thing I knew....
I'm awake.
Back in Canada.....
