♥ neko’s jp-blog ♫

Sorry everybody or the few persons who drop buy here from time to time but i’m not really into blogging mood.

I’ve shot a few low-quality pictures with my jp-keitai the last few weeks… so i’ll post them instead of writing a bunch of nonsense.

I’ve done the following stuff and more:

• Visited the aquarium in shinagawa
• Ate a lot of japanese and non japanese food
• Went clubbing 2 times at club atom
• Drank in shibuya, roppongi, shinjuku and other places
• Drank an Iced almond caramel latte @excelsior caffee almost everyday
• Met a lot of cool people
• Let cute girls and cool guys sign my backpack
• Learned a lot of japanese
• Watched the biggest firework of tokyo
• Took the shinkansen
• Went to Shizuoka
• Watched the new ghibli movie called “Ponyo”, all in japanese
• Played pachinko, Tekken and other arcade games
• Played darts and pool in shibuya
• Slept a few hours in a mac donalds
• Created a new group on facebook called “Shibuya backstreet Boys”
• …

Enjoy!

yosh!
My first week at school and hostfamily is already over, tomorrow i start the 2nd week.
School is fine, we learned a few basic phrases in japanese and the first 20 hiragana.
We are around 15-20 ppl in our class, almost all of them are cool… almost

The cool and nice guys already found together so now we are a team of 5-7 mostly guys, hanging around after school together. It’s always fun! tanoshimi~

Our Team-members:

Nas-kun ( igirisu-jin )
Patrick-kun ( suweeden-jin )
Sermet-kun ( doitsu-jin )
V-kun ( czeko-jin ) and also my hostfamily-buddy
Nick-kun ( amerika-jin ) the youngest… turned 18 yesterday
Rob-kun aka robocop ( amerika-jin )
and finally me

We went to karaoke in shibuya on friday… it was sooo fun! 2500yen per pers. for 2 hours karaoke with unlimited booze! hehe

Saturday we went to my friends bar in roppongi where another friend of me held a trance and rock party. Afterwards we checked out Club Atom, awesome place but too crowded on saturday.

That’s all for this week.
I’ll try to make photos the oncoming week.

jya

Nice post title huh?

About the food: I love japanese food, there’s nothing i can do against it. Of course i don’t like everything but i found way too much kind of food i like here.
From today i will start a new food-serie. I’ll post everytime a photo of the restaurant from the outside and one or two pictures of the meal.

On the first picture it’s japanese curry with vegetables. Eaten at Curry House C&C next to the West Exit of Ikebukuro Station.
2nd picture: Kotsuteri (こつてり) ramen. Ate that 6.30am sunday morning. I have no idea about the name of the restaurant. It’s on the opposite side of the street from Bar Mania in Roppongi.

The last few days i was struggling getting a nihon keitai…
Softbank sells the best prepaid phones so far, that’s why i tried to get one of them. No luck for me and everyone else because softbank’s prepaid phones are sold out everywhere
Saturday i felt a bit down because i still wasn’t able to get a phone but neko never gives up and tried the store in omotesando. They have english speaking staff and all are very friendly.
Same story here “almost” : we’re sorry but it’s sold out, did he say to me. BUT you can get a prepaid usim-card and order the prepaid phone. We call you when your phone arrives at our store.

Oh and no need for an ARC ( Alien registration Card ) I showed them my passport, Confirmation Letter of the School and explained that i will extend my current “visa” from 90 days to 180 days.

If you would like to call me then please do so Here’s the number: +818033571275

I hope my keitai will arrive soon because with the prepaid usim-card i cannot send emails with my swiss phone, that’s the only bad thing…

and finally a few words about the parties:
Friday i wanted to go to Club Atom. Well i went there but couldn’t enter because i was wearing 3/4 pants…
Big turn-off. I took the train back to ikebukuro and stayed at the hotel drinking chu-hi.
Saturday i met with Yuki-chan in roppongi, Bar Mania.
bar-Mania is definitely my favorite bar in Roppongi. The Bar-staff and the boss are very cool and easy. The music is ok.
Yuki had to leave around 22:00h so i went to Club Flower. 1000Yen entrance fee with 2 drinks. I had already a nice party at club flower last year but this time it was boring. Only Hip-Hop and RnB at both floors… and 90% of the crowd: GUYS
So went back to Bar Mania and stayed the night there. Met a lot of nice people: Eddie Murphy (the real one i swear!), Watanabe-kun ( the japanese Silent Bob ), Chihiro ( sweet girl… i called her “aho” that means “stupid”. She had a funny looking strain of hair and i was thinking you call that “aho”… don’t ask me why.
Oh and there was Mister Rob! Polska Power It’s cool to meet someone who is also interested in photography. I think i could learn a lot from Rob, he has done some awesome photos.

Ok OVER and OUT.
More news soon.

Ohayouuuuuuuuu!
Was bored during my nightshift at work so decided to make a small video from my last trip to japan.

I stayed 2 and a half weeks with my best friend in kyoto, osaka, nara and tokyo.
We had a lot of fun, parties and drinks Hahaha.

Check it out!

Hello fellow j-trance/rave addicts!
I see that my blog is turning more and more into a music-blog… nothing bad i hope?! What do you think?
Lately i had some new ideas about all the stuff with sharing my cd’s, more later.

Ok, here we go guys and gals! I found the ultimate club for all j-trance lovers out there
The all mighty club is called “Club Atom” and located in the Shibuya district of tokyo.

Here’s some main facts about Club Atom:

• Young Shibuya crowd, Yamamba, etc.
• 3 floors of music. Japanese Trance, House, and Hip-Hop
• Hip-hop floor is packed like sardines on Saturday
• Entrance fee: usually around 3000Yen, sometimes 1000Yen before midnight

Yes! this is what i did on the 6th with my friends.

Our crew for this wonderful day:
Niko (of course)
Yusuke
Sayaka
Ashpi
and another friend of yusuke (gomen ne, i don’t remember his name)

So our day started with Ceatec @Makuhari-Messe. 45min train ride away from Ueno station
Ceatec was nice, nothing special but nice. We got a lot of both babe photos. Muahahaha.
Ceatec was divided into 3 Halls. The first was all about Screens, Tv’s and some Mobile phones.
2nd hall only mobile phone stuff, hard and software. Finally the 3rd hall as about micro-chips, semi-conductors and stuff like that, pretty boring.

Ceatec over, we move back to tokyo city -> Shinjuku for some sightseeing. Sayaka, our tokyo expert, brought us along to the Tokyo Government building where we were able to go to the 45th floor for some nice city viewing by night. The view from there was wonderful.

Suddenly we got hungry, after walking around for a while we decided to go to an izakaya, with a private room. That was a fantastic idea! You can enjoy dinner and drinking with your friends without beeing bothered by other customers. The izakaya we went to is called “Hana no mae” -> Dancing flower. Prices are ok and you can order a lot of different food so there is something for everyone. I ate whale for the first time!!!!!!!!! oishi neeeeeeeeee.

About 3 hours later, we decided to go to a karaoke :) We sang stuff like “Thunderstruck”, “DJ Ozma”, “Koda Kumi - Cutie Honey”, ” Dragonball Theme song” and so on, pretty funny. 1h flew away and it was time o move over to Azabu Juban for “Pinku party”

For more infos about the pink party held at club “Warehouse” go to Cyberjapan.
The pictures of those events will come soon, the prob is my notebook is slow and it takes a lot of time to resize and upload them… maybe tomorrow i’ll have some more time left since we have no planned things so far.

Ageha is located a bit outside of Tokyo, in Shinkiba.
