Tadaima ~ (Golden Week Part 1)
Sun, Golden Week is over and the day is come upon us again. Now I know that is how Japan looks like in a state of emergency.
I'm duck against all good intentions but with a few other exchange students went to Kamakura to see a few temples. Finally, I've been here, I'm not seen much of traditional Japan and Kamakura is close enough to Tokyo for a day trip. So we are in the morning set off in beautiful weather (the Golden Week has been really lives up to its name) and were two hours later at the station in Kamakura. The train was full and although we had most of the time but are as bad as I had feared was not. The crowd waited until right at the station in Kamakura on us, where were stupid as the worst possible time throughout the year, the ticket machines failed, meaning that collect a few station guards the tickets of people by hand Had to order this runterdurften from the platform.
some point we had finally managed well until the railway station and the crowd broke up a little. And before I begin now to you with the details of the temple visit, bored, here is the short version: According to guide is available in Kamakura 70irgendwas temple. Usually rattles the average tourist as much as how learn in it can, which means also that he sometimes just somewhere to the input and then distributed by the outside shooting a photo or perhaps pay even more to the gift shop a visit before joining the nearest temple opens. We were 12 hours on the road and were looking at exactly a temple. We have identified some Minimum record broken. Well, ol Daibutsu (big Buddha statue), we have made it. We even paid the 20 yen to go inside, we ensure that there is to see nothing inside (which is why it was so so cheap) and then go out again and to say: Yes, we were also IM Daibutsu. ... When would this make any difference. ^ ^; We have not very often been queuing on the day to see NOTHING. Even before some ominous hole in a rock wall, in which every once stuck his head, either on-whatever-done or has amazed as we are with a shrug and "Mon nani nai" moved on to the next line.
We have twice ate great. Noon Ramen (which we had to wait a full half hour because grad in the tiny restaurant is no place for 10 people at one time was, I got straight in my childhood felt back) and evening Okonomiyaki (not that we were hungry, we were all still tired from the more than ample lunch and were just looking for an ice cream, but the store we had been recommended).
And the sharpest, but that we actually a girl from our Berlin university is run across (unfortunately like M-chan and I do not particularly what is presumably based on reciprocity) was. The world is just too small.
All in all it was a great day, though terribly strenuous. The Temple (whose name I have unfortunately already forgotten ... it was Engakuji?) Was beautiful and every corner of the Free blossomed flowers. *___*
have only on the way back, I cursed at every stop all this stupid train passengers who wanted to get off just not while I'm half dead on any handle to go and nothing else in mind than to somehow come to a seat. Well, shit happens .... and indeed in this case twice. ^ ^;
Well, now makes this stupid computer lab and I have not managed to write you a Kommi for your Fic, Nightie. Sorry, I I hope to come tomorrow. m (_ _) m

Dst Chapters On Suspension
I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien, I 'm a German girl in Japa ~ ~ n. ..* sing *
Yay, yesterday I picked up my gaikokujindourokushoumeisho (I can not guarantee that I have the "right" written. ^^;). Who can recite three times in a row without errors, get ne bar of chocolate. And believe me, you did not want any chocolate. Japanese chocolate tastes like, such as lamp-post at the bottom. But the only way. Who wants to know what I'm talking in general ...
Now I am at any rate officially reported in Japan as a foreigner and have my "Alien Registration Card". Say, in theory I can now open an account, buy a phone, Internet and provide me with temporary work. Theoretically mind you. In practice I see some difficulties ahead of me, which are attributed to late to rectify a wrong information. Since according to previous experience, however, may prove even said correction to be wrong and perhaps contrary to expectations, everything goes well, I will also only complain when will it happen (or not), that is Tuesday (or for you Monday night * gg *) .
Enough geschwafelt confusing stuff. Next week is Golden Week. Which means, as of Wednesday, we have three holidays in a row. Tomorrow (ie Saturday) is a public holiday, so get the happier Japanese also Monday and Tuesday free. Finally Fits so good. In plain language this means the whole of Japan will be on my feet and happy to travel through the country. And however much I may have shocked every Japanese with this statement already, I'm staying here! Tokyo will be deserted (for Tokyo standards) so I'll think I'm pretty here amused, while all the others like to squeeze into the crowded trains to fight to the last free (and by the time of the year over-priced) hotel beds, a line to be any interest, etc, etc. My problem
much more that I do not know is where I am to get in time what to eat. oO No idea whether supermarkets have become in time, as in Germany the case. If so, I have a problem. For a week now in stock is hard. Conbinis have yet to determined, but longer than two days in a Cup Ramen has to be genuine and not every day only Onigiri and sandwich makes more hungry than tired.
Well, restaurants have opened so hopefully. Time will
advice ... or not. ^ ^;
So, and so I say goodbye for the weekend, even if it's difficult. , _, * Compiler * fondle

Penis Looks Like Warts Pinballs
WTF
Today were smooth but the Jehovah's Witnesses in front of my door (or were they of any Bible study group, who knows so deep), in the form of two cute older ladies. First thought I had mistaken the door, until I the little brown book in his hand saw one. Although it has only looked a little startled when she saw me, but had the text they wanted me to recite it actually translated into German! ° _ ° I would gladly explain it in fluent Japanese, why I do not believe in God, but I could not I prefer, on Gaijin and drove them with a questioning look stressed and a little English. Honestly, not even here it is before something safe. ^ ^;
