Chasing Geishas
I need time off. So I'm finally saying goodbye to this blog. I just decided recently.
Of course you wouldn't believe me when I say that. I'm not really leaving, leaving :D I'm flying to Japan tomorrow. Weeeeeee. And then I'm going to stay in Kyoto for 3 nights, 4 days alone. Yay. Let's hope I can communicate with the people well and don't get nabbed in the side streets.
Last night I was thinking about the possible negative effects of walking along small alleyways. And then I realized OUR alleys are not like those of Kyoto. So it'd be generally safe. My dad assured me it's going to be safe. I just have to worry about getting lost. Fun, eh?
I just discovered early this morning while still fixing my itinerary and talking with Patag on YM that geishas still exist in Japan. And yes, Gion district, the most popular nightlife district back in the day is near the other hostel I'm going to stay in. So, I'm going to be chasing geishas around sun down on the 13th of May. Fun, fun, fun. I do hope I get to spot them though.
Well there. I'm gonna be buying everyone lucky charms (love? happiness? passing a test?) as souvenirs in this temple dedicated to love and marriage and fertility shiznat. There's a "rock test" there that couples take. There are 2 large stones on embedded on the ground. They close their eyes and walk towards one stone to another while holding hands. If they do it successfully, without getting injured, they are going to be together forever. I'm gonna take that test. Alone. hahaha

I'm too comfortable with my zoom lens. But I guess it'd be my best bet for exploring and stuff. Unless I have all the time and am just taking a stroll I can switch to a 21mm or something.
