Bonding Time
A Day in Harajuku
Since being in Tokyo, Sundays have taken the form of being a
day of relaxation, perhaps an opportunity to get away from the work side of the
trip. This is time to take care of personal issues and find a sense of
serenity. This Sunday, I began my day by being notified that we had to move to
a different room once again. So in the rush of things, we moved our belongings
to the girls’ room whose was located only one floor below us. After doing so, I
decided to catch up on laundry as my clothes began to pile up and I was
starting to room out of clothes for the upcoming week. My roommates chose to be
patient and wait for me to finish my laundry before we started our day. We had
a very busy day planned, so as soon as my laundry was finished, we rallied up
the troops and headed out. Today, we wanted to do some more shopping in
Harajuku. On our visit to Harajuku, we had not nearly enough time to explore
all that we wanted to explore. Our first stop was the Nike store. I absolutely
had to go to the Nike store to see if they had gotten some Air Jordans that
were released on the previous day. As it turns out, they had sold out just hours
before I got there. That kind of dampened my mood, but I remained optimistic.
As we walked around Harajuku, we took so many pictures and made so many
memories that we will never forget. Justin saw a hat online, and he was
determined on finding it in Harajuku. After searching for several hours, we
found the hat in a very small store for a very inexpensive price. All in all,
Harajuku was an extreme success and turned out to be quality bonding time for
my roommates and me. After Harajuku, we met up with my buddy in the Tokyo Dome
Center Food Court to grab a bite to eat for dinner. Tonight was the night I
fell in love with Japanese food! I had udon for the first time, and I can
honestly say this is my absolute favorite(I seem to say that about something different
every day).
