I was going to go to Chinatown today, but went to Shinjuku instead. I noticed my internet service contract was almost finished, so I figured it'd be no problem to go and extend my contract in Shinjuku, right? WROOONG!
I went all the way to Shinjuku, just to have the English help desk tell me they couldn't help me, and give me a phone number I already have. If that's not made of fail, I don't know what is. Apparently, I have to wait for my contract to completely EXPIRE before going there, and then I have to make a new one. How does that make any sense at all -.-;?
But yeah, the day wasn't completely lost (even though much time was wasted). I went on to Ikebukuro, and hit up Otome Road <3 <3 <3. Much fun anime things were to be seen. I bought Yamada D's latest manga (酷くしないで), and finished up my Christmas shopping for a few choice people, whoohoo ^_^. Now if I can get up the guts to go to the post office and pay for the shipping on all the presents I've bought... I foresee a terrifying total for that >.>;;;. Oh well, it's almost paycheck time, so I'll survive ^___^.
So yeah, tomorrow, I'll probably go to Chinatown... even though it'll probably end up being GAIJIN CENTRAL >.>;;;. I don't know how other people feel when in Japan, but it's no fun being around a ton of foreigners ^^;. I don't know why... I try to steer clear of the tourist hot spots, but I really wanna go ^^;. *is adamant about having fun*

Otome dori *o* I MISS going there. And Hidoku shinaide is so so GOOD! Maya is such a lovable ass. XD; The doujinshi are so good as well...and the recently released Drama CD is *___*
Chinatown is...overrated. XD; I went there with Hannah when I was there this summer and yeah. The prettiest part was walking from there to the harbour and then to that little amsuement park thingy. X3 The view from the ferries wheel is really amazing. *o*
And I understand that thing about being around a ton of foreiners. XD;; I always end up muttering "stupid gaijin" under my breath...in German of course. XD You never know. XD;;
I'm glad that you had fun in Shinjuku and got some shiny things. Argh, postage was horrible, so will it be worth it! OTL
