Day 7 : Ueno Park
Sep. 14th, 2010 04:34 pmI'm actually typing this up on the 15th, but I'm cheating and changing the date to the 14th. :)
After a rather uninteresting, down day yesterday, I must say that today was much better. Instead of staying inside all day long by myself, I took a long trip with my new exchange student friends in Japan. We traveled throughout the surrounding area in search for a store, and ended up in Akihabara to get to it. It was fun, though it did get a bit hot at times. (The sweating gets annoying...) Then there were more awesome things such as the walk in Ueno Park. Oh! And we ate much American food. I think all of us were sick of Japanese food for the day, so we opted to eat at a cafe that sold some American food. We also cooked spaghetti for dinner, and had a little four person party. It was fun. I officially dub us the exchange student family. Hahaha...
It was nice to see the scenery of a park. The city is full of rushing and such, so having tranquility was a nice change of pace. I know it's only been a week, but I didn't imagine I'd ever miss the quaintness of TN, even if only a little bit. Not to say I hate it here, or even miss home that much. No...that's not it at all. I've come to the conclusion that if I could just have ONE of my friends from home here, then I wouldn't get homesick at all. I'm sure of it.
