new city new life

i left hakuba.
and sanosaka.

and tracks.




it was sad. i cried.
mainly from leaving the workplace (people i worked with), as opposed to the dorm (people i lived with).
packing my room was INSANE. i somehow accumulated so much stuff. and i even sent two boxes home!!!
and i also threw out alot of things.... i never throw things out.


little sleep the night before didnot help this. along with meals stopping twodays before, and drinking the remains of the alcohol....
we left at about 2pm, to head back to tokyo.


we all thought we were being taken to narita airport. but, we were actually being taken to central city. hiromi needed to put her bags in storage at narita. so it was a slight confusion slash slash moment. but it all got sorted. we caught the train to shinjuku to put our bags into storage.
i actually forgot how ridiculous and heavy my pack was.

we also booked no accommodation for that night. so we headed to asakusa, and met up with tom. went to dennys for dinner. and then went to a karaoke room. we had the room from 11 till 5. and got less than 2hours sleep. then went to dennys again for morning coffee etc. and tried to sleep abit more.

(damn it when my computer turned off it didnt save the rest of this!! gaaah).

we travelled the yamanoto line all day. went to akihabara, and got me this sweet sweet baby. my new net book. wheeeee.

hiromi and i then went in search of somewhere to bathe. and what a mission that was. i tell ye.

after waiting in line at theinformation centre for ages for directions to a sento. and then not even know. getting lost various times. trying to find a hotel, so that we could use their facilities.





the words `ok, new plan` were used many, many, many times....
these new plans almost always involved starbucks toilets.
but when we actually went there, they werent appropriate.


we went to get our luggage (after literally walking around the trainstation for hours), and headed to tokyo station.
we found a massive dissabled toilet. and went in there with all our belongings. the water was freezing. but we did it. half way through, the automatic door unlocked. and started to open (at one of the busiest train stations in tokyo), hiromi head in the sink, me half dressed.
we got it closed again eventually. but every second that went by was filled with paranoia that it was going to happen again.


we left feeling refreshed. and went to get dinner at a delicious italian restraunt.

the clocked turned 11.20 and it was time to get the night bus to nagoya.

whooooo.

let the adventures begin!!!!!
