Shibuya 06/10/2008
 

Never underestimate the power of automatic doors. I was walking out of the elevator today and it was beginning to close so i put my hand out. Normally in America the door would instantly stop, but it seems that there is a good 2 second delay here lol. My entire shoulder got slammed in between the doors and it hurt. These doors weren't just playing around, they were playing for keeps!
    My cold is starting to subside and i'm pretty much back to normal :D I'm extremely glad I didn't really suffer much from the jet lag because i probably would have had to stay in bed all week.
    Today we visited Shibuya which is another district in Tokyo. Shibuya is famous for its fashion and clothing. We saw a lot of interesting shirts and styles. It seems that the fashion among men/boys is a mix between baggy ghetto looking clothes and rock star get ups. English words and phrases are also pretty popular, but they don't make sense half of the time.
    Just a few hours ago we went to Akiba again to hang out. My friend Andrew plays a fighting game called guilty gear and is one of the best players in the U.S. Compared to the top players here though he stands somewhere in the lower tier. Although he has lost most of the matches he has played (around 20) he still enjoys playing and considers it practice. Some of the video games here are amazing!
    more to come so stayed tuned!
