Oh shi... やばい。。。大変やばい!

Well crap, I'll start with the bad news first.
I was talking to Christine on Thursday and I figured it's best that I asked the airport to deliver my luggage to my dorm. I never really thought about it thoroughly when I read an email I received a month ago from Hokkaido University of Education, but I was apparently placed in an International Housing institute, approximately 1hr away from campus. I figured this out after I emailed the coordinator yesterday about sending my luggage to the dorms in the University but the lady on the other end gave me an address which was not in the same ward. I was suspicious so I google mapped it and long behold, I was placed far way from campus. So yes, PANIC MODE. I sent an email late last night hoping someone would check it today but it seems like they're not working today. I did not get a response yet. =( -sigh- I was looking forward to the dirty dorms too. Please someone, check the email. =( The international housing institute is a) far away and b) more expensive. Geez, of all the places to put me. =(

Back to my little adventures:
Mother, Christine and I went to Shibuya for some food. We ended up going to the uber crowded street in Shibuya and I took pictures of it.

iPod Touch photo of the busy street. Forgot to bring my camera.
The famous Hachiko 「はちこう」

Afterward, we decided to look at the Tokyo Tower because there was an event there for Breast Cancer. Mother and I needed to return to our Hotel by 11PM so we were rushing. Notice how the tower changes colors.

Pink tower
Red hue
Yellowing
White =)
Mother and I rushed back to our hotel. apparently the hotel back door closes at 10:45PM and not 11:00PM. the tunnel we were in closes at 11PM. But yes, I sent my email at around 12:00AM then played a bit of my zombie game then passed out. Today I will be meeting Jessi, Christine, Yasu and Yumi for a few hours. I should leave soon actually. Later!
