Sorry I haven't posted for days, guys >////< Jetlag killed me. Multiple times.
Anyway, I'm waiting for my transfer flight, but I am back at my broski's place after an awesome visit to Kiku's house. I'll have to give the details and highlights later cuz typing on my iPhone sucks -_- But yep, so much fun!!!
My luggage weighs a ton...It's cuz I bought a lot of stuff for other people... I'm really generous when it comes to gift giving... My mom kept saying, "Don't you have enough stuff for (insert name of coughboyfriendcoughbroskicough here) already?"
And then I was like, "Of course not! (adds to pile of stuff)"
Yep...That's me...
I'm realizing how impolite Americans are...the people in Japan were so nice and helpful, and, unlike most Americans, they didn't get annoyed when they realized I couldn't speak their language! (gasp)
I'd love to go back...but now I'm saving for London! Or maybe Toronto...
Alright, I'm gonna wrap this up. I'll talk to you peoples later...maybe even later tonight if I'm awake...
OH! Right, the whole reason I was posting was to tell people that if you heard about a kinda powerful earthquake in Japan yesterday/this morning... Yeah, I slept through that. My cousin and her family are fine, we're fine, it wasn't bad. Alright, leaving now! Tata~!

Alright, quick post, I'm about to fall asleep typing.
Went to some really cool places today, a shrine and a garden-ish thing as well as a giant Buddha. I actually got to go inside the statue...pretty cool but kinda scary ^^;
I went to a Studio Ghibli store! LOVE <3 So much cute stuff! I bought myself two Totoro charms and a stuffed animal of the pet from Naasica/fox things from Castle in the Sky. His name is Tobi <3
I fed pidgeons at the one shrine today. WOW was that an experience. They kinda swarmed and got right up in my face...Oh, but I let a couple eat out of my hand! They were actually pretty cute! Two of them started to fight on my hand and I kinda threw them up into the air to get them to stop... ^^; This pretty white one was sitting eating and actually let me pet it...Very awesome. I think my mom freaked out though... Their claws were SHARP! My arms and wrists are all cut up and I look emo...
Alright, I wanna sleep. I'll talk to you guys later! Tata~!

TAKE TWO!
The internet died on me right as I was posting last ^^;
I'm having so much fun in visiting Nihon! So far, we've gone to:
1. Shibuya. (The World Ends with You fans, be jealous) We got pictures of the Hachi statue and went to Shibuya 109 to browse and such.
2. Harajuku. We got some very yummy noodles and walked down Ometesando, which is a very pretty tree-covered street. We saw a couple people dressed up (I actually failingly cosplayed, myself...), but it was so hot that no one was in anything too elaborate.
3. Meiji Jingu. It's still in Harajuku. It's this very big, pretty shrine, and we actually saw a traditional Shinto wedding!
4. IKEBUKURO!! The anime district! The only place we really visited was a 9F building called Animate. There I made a crapton of Hetalia purchases for me and my friends and such.
Actually, there, some young Japanese guy started talking to me (in very good English) and asked me for my Facebook, then said he wanted to maybe hang out. He was pretty cute, eh, eh? Nah I'm kidding, I really don't want a boyfriend who lives across the ocean from me.
...NO, Arthur's a special case!! TAKE OFF!
Well, I should probably go. I'll be sure to post again, hopefully soon! Tata~!

So I'm not allowed to use Internet over in Japan -_-
I thought we were able to use Internet with no extra cost. Boy was I wrong! I'll probably be stealing my cousin's computer, so I'll still post, but the posts may be fewer than I had planned... Crud.
Well, anyway, I should probably go before I get carsick. Tata~!

I've had a recent obsession with shiny Pokemon easily...I had a delirious, "I was half-asleep and really not functioning at the moment" idea of a Pokemon-Hetalia crossover where Matthew attracted shiny Pokemon and whatever team (it wasn't Team Rocket but it was similar?) tried to kidnap him and then a Maple Tea/angsty one-sided USUK plot ensued. ...I was really delirious.
I HAD A PIRATE DREAM LAST NIGHT. (headdesk) The pirate gods were not appealed TT~TT
Coldplay's new EP is amazing...
Alright, I'm going back to drawing shiny Pokemon...
OH! I'm leaving for Japan tomorrow. ^^; Arthur, my phone, can connect to theO and post, though, so I'll be documenting my trip here and people will still be able to keep in contact with me ^^ The updates will just be at weird times, and I might skip tomorrow due to crossing the date line and such.
...I should probably sleep, actually, because I just almost teared up at the beauty of this Coldplay song...DELIRIUM~!
Tata~!
