Im so proud of myself!!!  Over the past 4 days I’ve only spent 3 hours on the internet!

NEway, things have been hectic lately.  Christina and I decided last monday that I would go down to Tokyo on the weekend to hang out, so last week was very busy getting bus tickets and alike ready.  Plus uni is starting to get busy!!!!  This week I have two trips to a primary school to teach and one preparation session.  But thats getting ahead.

So,Tokyo.  Went by bus, which took about 5 and a half hours.  The highway buses here are very easy to use and a lot cheaper than what the shinkansen would be!!!  I left sendai around 3:10 in the afternoon, and arrived in Shinjuku around 8:30ish.  Christina finished work at 9:30, so I hung around till then.  We then went to Shibuya and this classy little wine bar.

We drank and few tasters and then headed back to her b’friends apartment.  We watched ‘Harold and Kumar’ which has to be the sillist and most pointless movie I have ever seen, but a heap of fun at the same time. 

Saturday we went to breakfast at a cafe in Ebisu, followed by some window shopping in Shibuya.  Around midday Christina had to go to work, so for the rest of the afternoon I spent window shopping with some of her friends.  Around 3 or 4 we split up and I went to Ikebukuro to do some anime shopping.  Didnt find much, but also went to Cinnabon for the first time in 2 years, which was a very nice thing to do.  Their peacon-bons are soooo yummy.

We then all met up again in Shinjuku at 8:30 and went to take some print club photos…  over 2 and a half hours later we decided it was too late to go dancing as planned, so it was just to a close bar for some drinks and nibbles before home to bed (at 2 in the morning).

Sunday it was up to eat pancakes, after which christina had to leave for work.  I headed to kichijoji to do some more window shopping and have a lovely lunch at anna millers.  Desert was ‘passion azuki’ which was a cheesecake with passionfruit sauce, and azuki beans…  really really yummy!!!  And then on to Nakano, anime shopping which wasnt very sucessful at all (but good for my purse).

Had to be back in shinjuku to catch my bus at 3:40.  Got home last night about 9:40, just in time to have a bath and go to bed…  what a busy weekend.  Dont ever walk around tokyo in heals all weekend, its a killer……
