Japan Week 1 (cont'd)

 
  • Went back up to my hotelroom to get my camera.  I walked in on the cleaning lady meticulously pulling hair out of my hairbrush as she tidied my room.  LOL  She was like “ARA!  ARIGATOU GOZAIMASUUU!” and embarrassed.  I was like wow… I’m not sure my own mother would even do that for me hahaha   
  • Went to McDonald’s yesterday, had a “bacon potato pie” (shaped like an apple pie, but with like… cream potato soup inside) and a fried shrimp filet burger.  Delish!
  • It was raining yesterday so one of my classmates bought a black umbrella at a convenience store.  He wasn’t paying much attention, and when he opened it up, it turned out the umbrella was lined with doily-like lace on the outside.  HAHAHA  Oh Japan.  He joked that it also came with a pair of elbow length gloves.  
  • Went to a Shiseido make-up counter and got a makeover with those hi-tech face/skin analysis machines.  The clerk was awesome, she put the little camera thing to my face and we waited for the results, and she was like “CONGRATULATIONS!  You have very plump and moist skin!”  LOL  …I feel like I am not translating that well.  XD  I thought to myself, Japanese women have pretty good makeup… should I give it a shot?  And then I realized it’s because it’s like a whole layer of makeup that took like an hour to apply using like a million dollars worth of product.  It felt like I was wearing a face mask (although the upside is that you don’t need to wear sunscreen on your face because it’s already included, and there’s a physical layer of protection).  Also, she did the left side of my face and then had me do the right side.  Hahha it was terrible!!  
  • Anyone know of a good place to get a haircut in Tokyo?  I wondered if I should try the hair dying thing… come back with feathered, light brown hair in bangs or waves hahaaa.  But I think it would be interesting for like five minutes and then I would be like “GAH! Undo!!  Ctrl+Z!!” ahah
  • I feel really bad for the people who stand on the street and hand out advertisements.  Usually I turn them down, except when they’re passing out free tissues.  Always say yes!!  In Japan and Taiwan ALWAYS CARRY TISSUES!  A lot of bathrooms don’t have toilet paper!!  A matter of life and disgusting.  XD

You should get a digital perm! Especially since you are in Japan! Sounds like you are having fun. Love the updates! (BTW, this is S, not Chunky. He would not be happy if he knew I was making suggestions about hair) =)
