GOLDEN WEEK IS HERE AND THE WEATHER IS 26 degrees C/75 degrees F OF SUMMER-Y GOODNESS!
Yesterday, despite being full of cold and asthma-y nastiness, I went to Hamamatsucho in Tokyo for Dollshow.
I met up with Donnoir and Mizuzu from DOA and we went together.
I'm kind of worse for it now, but I'm still glad I went in the end!
I took some awesome photos, bought some cheap MSD fur wigs (500yen/$5) and a violin for tiny size (I thought it was a bargain at 1000yen/$10).
My digital camera battery decided to die about 5 photos into the show, but I continued taking photos with my Softbank mobile phone.
Some of those mobile phone photos actually came out better than the ones from my digital camera - my digital camera's flash tends to white out doll faces in most light :/
I'm not sure whether I should post the nicer photos on DA or not.
Obviously, they're NOT my dolls, but they ARE my photographs
I did post them up on Facebook though, so my friends could see my Japan adventuring.
Tomorrow is the Volks Dolpa 23!
I plan to get there early, so I can meet up with people and have a chance to get little Kakeru.
My health isn't really up to it at the moment, but I already bought the guidebook and I think I would kick myself for missing the chance to go while I'm here.
So I will bring my inhalers and cold medicine and try to make the best out of the event while I'm here!
Being ill does come with a slight advantage...no appetite = 3 inches off my waist XD
Intro
I'm a 22 year old student in the UK studying BA(Hons) Japanese and TESOL.
This year will be my 3rd year and I will be spending it in a Japanese university in the Saitama prefecture called Daitou Bunka Daigaku.
I will be departing the UK on the 6th September 2009 and I will arrive in Japan on the 7th September 2009.
If anyone has been before and could recommend some good places to visit, that would be fabulous!
I hope you will join me on my journey to The Land of the Rising Sun.
There will be many photos in the gallery - a link is provided on the right.
