Travel

You know, one thing I hate is foreign travel in large groups. We rode the train today in Tokyo over to Musashino, and people were just so loud and annoying. These people just do not know the concept of blending in, or traveling inconspicuously, or cultural respect, or anything. It just angered me. When I travel, I like to blend in as much as I possibly can, and act like the natives. When in Rome, do as the Romans, etc, etc, etc. I just think it's a genuinely good idea. Another thing I hate is flirty people. One of my roommates here is just so dumb when it comes to flirting and such. Man, it is annoying. This morning, I got up and walked around Tokyo for a while, near our hotel. I really enjoyed it, and think I'll get up early tomorrow to go eat breakfast and such. Although, I did sort of accidentally jack someone's latte from Starbucks this morning. I ordered a mocha (in Japanese!), then thinking I was the only one waiting for anything, took the first cup that came up, and walked out. Yeah, it definitely wasn't mocha, and definitely was not the size I ordered. So, looks like I won't be going back there again tomorrow. Another thing I hate is traveling in a foreign country where I don't know the language. Like Japan. I wish I knew Japanese, so I could communicate and more fully experience this place. I'm really digging Tokyo, it's just ver friendly. Insanely big, but friendly. Tomorrow night, I'm going to go to Ginza, which is the district with all the neon, like in Lost in Translation. I'm looking forward to it.
