1. Tokyo
2. New York
3. San Francisco
Suddenly the atmosphere turned from wacky to serious. ‘If you had to choose, where whould you like to go more?' my dad asked. 'New York or Tokyo?’ My answer (I was still left behind in the funny mood): ‘TOKYO!’ It was then that I realised my parents were serious and suddenly the conversation changed from rambling to seriously discussing a trip to Tokyo in summer, after my (hopefully) graduation.
Since it was kind of a strange night, I later asked my mom: ‘Do you really think dad was serious about the trip?’ I expected an ‘I’m not sure, we were having one of those funny conversations after all’-answer, but instead she said: ‘Yes, I do!’
Oh. My. God. I’m going to Tokyo! With my dad! Oh my God!
I can’t tell you how I’m looking foward to summer. I’ve read several reports of other people who visited Tokyo and I’m collecting all sorts of information, like how to use the subwaysystem, maps, hotels, nice things to do... I hope my dad is prepared for a lot of shopping, because I'm saving up my money for quite some expenses (Lolita~)!
I really, really can’t wait to go! I am so excited, you have no idea! Tokyo, here I come (in summer)!
That's amazing!

That's great, you're so lucky! It's funny because I went to Japan too after my graduation (that was where I discovered lolita!).
ReplyDeleteIf I may recommend you something: don't spend all your time in the shopping districts. Japan's cultural heritage is wonderful, even in a big city like Tokyo. So at least visit the Emperor's Palace, some gardens and temples~
(but this is coming from someone who studies Japanese, so you don't have to agree with me :P)
Haha, don't worry, I'm definitely not planning to only shop my time away. ^^ Shopping is important to me in this case, but I really want to visit at least Tokyo Tower, gardens and the Emperor's Palace would be great! It all depends on weather, energy and what we'd like to do. ^^
ReplyDeletei don't think that the palace is woth a visit- but this is just my 2 cents.
ReplyDeletemy tipp is: if you go shopping be careful what you buy. I ended up selling nearly all the stuff I bought in my first japan trip because i was so overwhelmed.
Thank you, I'll definitely keep that in mind. ^^
