♥ neko’s jp-blog ♫

Sorry everybody for the lack of updates…

I was not in blogging mood at all.. and i still aren’t right now.
I keep my facebook updated with pictures and comments etc. so i don’t feel the need to update my blog, especially uploading pictures is a pain in the A**.

Well, now for the short update:

My school is over, that means i already stayed 3 months here. I’m living in my own apartment in Sangenjaya, near Shibuya since 20.September and i like it. FREEDOM!

What else… i got a new phone, Panasonic P822. Also a prepaid phone from softbank but a pretty decent one.
I met a lot of nice people the last few weeks since my update, espacially a nice girl from Osaka… during my short trip in the south region of japan.
So yes, i have a new girlfriend, down in osaka…

Soooo i’m not going to stay in tokyo, girlfriend or not, i move to osaka on the 19th October and stay till 26th November if everything converges like i wish

Oh holy shit, i almmost forgot!!!!! I got a bike, a foldable chevy bike. How nice is that!?

Ok i’m done for a while… i’ll try to update my blog next week.

sorry everybody

peace out

Neko

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

• 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

Ohayou gozaimasu!

I started school today… nothing interesting to report so far. More later. Let’s take a look at some j-food i ate the last few days:

garlic pizza@timesquare building, Shinjuku, don’t remember which JR-Exit

fried chicken with cheese@coco ichiban, ikebukuro JR-West exit

and today: sushi@sushiya somewhere near my school in jimbocho

That’s all for today. Maybe morning a little bit more about my school and the guys i met today.

jya ne~

I took a photo everytime i went eating somewhere, meal and how the places looks outisde.
Now here’s the small list from the last 2 days. Don’t ask me for the names of the restaurants, i simply don’t know it but i will write where they are located.

curry@akihabara, next to the JR Exit “Electric Town”

lotteria@ikebukuro, east JR Exit

gomen ne i forgot to shoot the front of the store

ramen@ueno, JR Exit “shinobazu”, ameyoko-chô

tonkatsu@ikebukuro, small side street, JR West Exit

Didn’t eat sushi yet because i couldn’t find a sushi with a conveyorbelt

Minasan, itadakimasu!

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.

Yosh! I’m excited already about my 5 month trip to japan… but still 19 days to go until i leave cheese-land
As you can read in the post title i’m a big fan of shibuya. It’s my favorite place in tokyo so far.
I love the young shibuya crowd, all fashion victims but that’s fine with me. LOL
Shibuya is full of lively people, nice shops and clubs and the love hotel hill called “dogenzaka”. What do you want more? Oh i know! “Little Spoon” curry restaurant!

If someone wants to try the best kare fast-food in shibuya (my own opinion) then go to “Little Spoon” or in japanese “リトルスプーン”. It’s located near the shibuya train station, just pass the crossing and walk like you would go to HMV.

When you see the HMV sign then look on the right side of the street and search for this:

Check out their website for all the menus they have. http://www.little-spoon.co.jp

More about Shibuya and it’s nice places soon

sore dewa mata ne

Ok ok, i know it’s “old stuff”. Who cares… i just ordered the dvd and was kind of curious if anybody else already bought it or at least saw it somewhere

Sooooo, is it good?
To my eyes the preview didn’t looked that bad.

Did you ever heard about super sentos? No?
You’re not alone, since last week i didn’t know what a “super sento” is.
To me it sounded like a superhero or a sex-position that even makes looking kamasutra lame… :)

Chigau~ A super sento is a über-dimensional public-bath/spa facility.

The nice thing is that you don’t need to drive far away to the country-side or sub-urbs to enjoy hot springs, no, there are in the middle of tokyo!

Let’s take a look at the biggest super sentos in tokyo:

1. Oedo Onsen Monogatari (Odaiba)

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.

oyasumi~
