Day #5 – Japonism Tour - Yafuoku Dome, Dec 18th 2015
We're finally arrived on the big moment! Yafuoka Dome is a huge building, with a long steep stairs to reach it from the bus stop. Luckily, there's elevator so we can save our legs for the concert instead. We plan to meet Virginia who agree to get her ticket from my friend, but she'll arrive later, as she needs to do something. She already bought her goods earlier in the day tho. So that left us with the shopping and we done it pretty quick: there's queue but everyone is moving so fast, I have to thanks the goods staffs for their hard work! It didn't feel like we're waiting at all. I bought calendar, bag, and penlight (a must? Credit to our MJ) with furoshiki and some masking tapes before they're gone in a flash! The rest of the goods can wait later. Just like in Tokyo Dome, I can easily recognized the blue long coat the goods staffs are wearing. Guess it's the same everywhere?
( beware: very very very long japonism ahead! )
Sorry for any misspelling and grammar fails ><
Day 5, 18 Dec 2015
Jan. 3rd, 2016 11:39 pmI woke up very early and even packed my stuffs the night before to save time. I need to print my boarding pass and will need more time to explore the airport (or so I plan). After waiting for about 15-20 minutes before the receptionist appeared to check out and return my key, I walked ahead to the direction of the station. It was still dark outside. It's just that I was stupid enough not to notice that Lawson actually has English menu for their printing service and instead I went to 7-11 (which was nearer) and challenging myself with their full-of-katakanas-printing machine. Whatever, I thought, if this goes wrong I could just take one step back or abort it and do it all over again. So I did, took some steps twice or thrice over and finally got my document from USB disk printed. It was cheap, only 10 yen for a leaf of white and black printing.
Day 3, 16 Dec 2015
Dec. 31st, 2015 03:51 pm
My plan for Day #3 is... to watch Kazama's butai with Fatma!!! Yay! I was so excited!!!
That is... if we can get the ticket, haha. And to go to the place, The New National Theatre, is another thing. I have to go to Shinjuku first then change to Keio Line to reach Hatsudai. Problem is, Shinjuku is big and I'm not familiar with it and we literally lost, if not almost, in it last year. Also, Shinjuku is quite far away from Minami-senju. I have to take off at Nippori and take almost half of the Yamanote line to reach the big station.

Day 2, 15 Dec 2015
Dec. 30th, 2015 04:02 pmI woke up early just as planned. Well, with a little rolling now and then... haha. But yep, I'm early enough for a person who's supposed to be jetlagged. My motivation is... to get a good breakfast at Lawson 100 nearby! I was so fall in love with Lawson 100 last year unfortunately I haven't got time to explore one that's located very close to my hotel. So I went and grab my usual staples: wakame onigiri (no tuna mayo! Why?), a pack of boiled eggs (I really really really love this) called ajitsuke tamago, and a small pack of salad (lettuce and sliced onions). I went back to the hotel chirping happily that even the cold morning weather outside feels so fresh to a tropical person like me.
Main staple for survival.
Yeah, the plan for Tuesday, December 15th (wow, last night there was zero and I missed it, I realized) is to meet a friend of my friend back at home and pass some important stuffs to her. She's also love Arashi and one big point is that her ichiban is Ohno <3. Guess I'll have a great quality time today, I thought. The first day is usually a day when I have trouble deciding where to go first (we only promised to meet at noon on around 1) since I have a long list of destinations and which route is the best to take (timely and economically LOL). I know I plan to visit Kagurazaka in the morning one of the days but... well, after hesitating until almost 10 I decided to go for it.
