2 days in tokyo
SOOO I just finished my first 2 days in Tokyo. They were amazing. The first day I landed at about 430 pm at Narita International Airport. It was hectic there soooo many people were landing and trying to get home. When I met up with the CIEE student helpers I was amazed at their english considering most of them were only 18. To put it in perspective it was WAY better then my Russian and Ive taken about 5 years of it. After I got my bags and shipped them of to my host family we got on a bus and were sent to our first hotel. About my host family, I have a Dad, a Mom, and a 4 year old little boy. I was given a picture of them and they sooo really awesome haha. They dont look like the speak much english but i am totally fine with that because i want to learn the language. Ok, back to the hotel. At the hotel I met up with some guys and on the way to our rooms we saw a Sapporo vending machine. So natuarally I bought a beer out of it haha. That night for dinner we took a bus to a mall. I had some soy sause based ramen and it was amazing. After the mall i literally put my head on my pillow and passed out. Today I had 4 hours of orientation and took a our of the campus, the campus is really small but I saw 4 guys with LAX sticks and a poster for the football team I am very excited. After orientation we went to the Hub. Which is an english bar is the Shinjuku part of Tokyo. We had a lot of fun, if anyone looks at a train map it looks like the most complicated thing in the world but it was WAY to easy for it to be fun. But on my commuter pass I have a prepaid stop at in Shinjuku which is awesome cause it comes alive at night. Also at HUB they sell liters of beer and they were delicious. haha. Well not im sitting in my room writing waiting to go buy my cell phone tomorrow. So for now,
