Sports Day

On saturday i went to the sports day of one of the KG's i go to. I actually really like this school so i was happy to go. We (me and my partner teacher Satsuki) went only for the morning and left as everyone was being given bento boxes for lunch. There didnt actually seen to be that many races. Every child takes place and their names are announced just vefore they race. For the first one anyway. And each race takes about 10 minutes. There were also a lot of shows that the kids did which was really cute. It was really nice to see your kids race some kids had a lot of, 'is that her..? it looks like her....?' on their faces. I sat with the other staff guests like guests of the school and the piano teacher ect which was nice. Felt quite special ^_^

Afterwards I went into Harajuku with Satsuki. I haven't been to that many places in central Tokyo as i havent had the time and when i do i always end up sleeping or something. But i really enjoyed it. Its nothing really but shops but we went down the famous street there (but i have to admit i didnt know what it was) called Takeshita - dori. It's a road where all these shops are there and they have lots of crepe shops which i thik the area is famous for. Anyway the primary reason i went there was that she wanted to take me (i may have nudged) to the Johhny's Offical shop! I think only one or two people will know what that is. But its the shop for music agency which speialise in 'Idols' and pretty much run the entertainment industry in Japan. Arashi is part of that Agency ^_^ Its not that big and you can order photos of the people you like. I always found it really weird and did up until i stepped into the shop. Then it was 'Oh i like that one' then 'that was a really good photo shoot' and ' look at the lighting' then ' mabye just one more of Ohno' ect ect ect : D Good funs. And yes, i will be going back. But its quite hard to find but i should be okay for next time. ll i need to know is Exit 3!!!!

We then went to a famous toy shop called 'Kiddyland'. (megalolz) I've heard so much about it from various places and friends and wanted to go. Its being done up at the moment so it has been moved until 2012 i think! I got a really cute phone charm (nealy got a totoro one but it wa a bit more expencvive!) of a hamster eating some sweet potatoes. yep and its awsome. I really want to go back and i am going to save up for a giant totoro! about £30 abouts i think. Bit less mabye.



Anway mum is here at the moment. So we are going to explore Tokyo on the Friday and Saturaday and i have friday and thursday off ^_^ yaaaaaaayyyyyy. Looking forward to a day off - as Apart from sat afternoon i have not had a day off in over a week. Its nice to catch up on things and actually have a look around. There are a bunch of things that i want to see. I want to go to Akasuka (sp) as a book I am reading at the moment is set there. : )
