my last day/night in tokyo

<3

last classes and farewell parties

kurihama matsuri

july 12 was kurihama's festival. it was weird to see the empty beach i walk to all the time, filled with people. it was a nice goodbye to kurihama. cheezzze!

4th of july

so i'm finally getting around to putting up the stuff from my last couple of weeks in japan. better late than never i guess.

this was 4th of july weekend, i went out to stay the weekend in fuji city with andrea and joe one last time. we were also able to go to the tanabata festival in hiratsuka. it was super packed but worth it. they put up these lights and bamboo decorations all over downtown and it is a really pretty atmosphere.

sexier than water

the other day, i walked to the kombini on my lunch break to get a refreshing beverage. they had sprite zero, which they had never had before, so i joyously purchased it. i walked back to school and sat down at my desk to have a well-deserved swig of sprite and was informed that sprite zero is not only new, but it is also sexier then water. i knew i picked it for some reason.

does sprite zero deem itself the sexiest beverage in nebraska or is this just a japan thing?
