darkcloud Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 Right now Im in comic busters in central (?) Kyoto.... So far its been a cool time. I have had some random moments though..... Example.... I was in Wonder tower earlier and I noticed this group of kids staring at me.... Then I got the feeling I was getting followed... Finally one of them decided to ask what they wanted.... Excuse me... Can you ask him if I can take a photo..... For a school ｐroject... Is what he said to my girlfriend in japanese.... She asked me and I said yes before she said "Sooo badly lying" and I noded..... So the all got into the photo with me and I gave them a nice cheesy thumbs up pose... They will probably laugh at me later...... So yeah either Im a giant or just not from around there so they thought yay picture..... A less nice memory is a group of girls in Tokyo disney land yesterday who snuck a picture and that was just weird. :-/ Disney land is cool btw.... That was my first ever time going. Ermmmm Harujuku was random, it gave me flashbacks of camden town back in London... The first nights hotel was quite cosy (the one we will be staying at mostly in Tokyo) but the one we are in now in Kyoto is nicer.. Finding my way round Kyoto has been a pain... Everything is so big compared to how it looks on any map so its amazingly confusing. o.o;; Tokyo is not so hard to navigate.... Strange as this is the oposite to what I thought would happen as Kyoto is just litteral blocks of buildings.... I went on the Shinkansen today to Kyoto which was pretty much a plane without wings.... Kinda cool. Oh and it was the first time I had ever been on a plane.... I was kinda worried before takeoff then I was ok then during takeoff I was kinda worried again but then I looked out the window for the next 13 hours enjoying myself until landing..... I felt like the plane was gunna drop out the sky a lot.... It was weird....I definantly prefere takeoff... Hmmmm these are my random messy thoughts on a Japanese PC which is really hard to use...... Hope you enjoyed them... Ill try to keep things updated as I go.... This doesnt even mention most stuff I could comment on... This place is seriously awesome. XD

Platty Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 Im glad you're having a good time, i would love to go to Japan!! But whats with the picture taking of you, i dont get it? are you just too handsome?
dabookerman Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 Im glad you're having a good time, i would love to go to Japan!! But whats with the picture taking of you, i dont get it? are you just too handsome? Im guessing its because they rarely see any foreigners. Or they might of thought they saw jesus XD /jk
darkcloud Posted September 13, 2006 Author Posted September 13, 2006 The first instance in Tokyo Disney Land I was walking past one of the group and they turned round and jumped...... They got scared of me cause I was tall or something... She told her friends I think and they laughed.... Then I walked off and later ended up next to them again and one quickly got out the camera and two of them did a random pose infront of me and snap.... Second time I was walking around and I noticed on of the group staring at me and they turned completely around as I walked past... I was like o.o;;... They walked off I think, but, then the whole group walked back and hung around the corner for a while until I went past them..... "Sugoi!" is what one of them said and then they kept following around another corner and asked for a photo.... School project? Yeah right..... Basically its either cause Im big, white or both. lolol Atleast thats what I assume... There are actually other examples of similar events but yeah.... Can:t be bothered to explain now. lol
mike-zim Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 i want a stalker it isnt fair. i want a hooker stalker. i think that is a girlfriend isn't it?
