japan trip #2
day 3 (shopping, surmount)
- discovered GU woops there goes my money
- actually not really there are other places i also wanna visit beyond fast fashion muahahaha
- will bring back a whole ass wardrobe
- also hung out with a dev from Surmount
(which is available now on Nintendo Switch™️ and Stea-)who conveniently is here at the same time as me? which is insane??? - anyway it was a lovely time at an asakusa izakaya, still felt insecure about my language/presence but hey it was fun and that’s the best i can ask for
- barely made the very last train at midnight which was a wacky lil endorphin rush
day 4 (concert)
- got invited to attend a game arrangement concert with takeshi hama as a featured composer aaaaaaa
- ate ramen nearby and survived wonderfully
- when i sat down at my seat in the hall, i opened a drink and it made a super loud fizz and i was like GUH
- the pikmin medley at the start made me tear up soooo much goddamn
- extremely worth the 2.5 hours travel time
day 5 (friendo, island)
- spent the whole day with my friend kanoa and ahhhh it was so wonderful
- she took me to enoshima island, which had suuuch a gorgeous view
- we took a special escalator that had super cold air and projections of ocean life and i couldn’t stop saying “the air and the viewwwww!!! i’m comingggg!!!”
- anyway next we went to kamakura, a cute lil town
- we ate the best street unagi, and i got lil trinkets hehehe
- it was just such a lovely experience, and really shattered the illusion of feeling like i need to do Everything on my own, because wow it’s just so much more enriching and exciting with people to share things with
