I went to a hanami or two thus the 'drunk naked japanese men', walking around 'sakuuuura, ssaaaaakuuuura'. But they were small ones near the campus.
I wanted to go to shinjuku-gyoen, but I choose to go to palace that day, east garden is wild because it is so huge and open space right in the middle of Tokyo.
My first day of class was yesterday and holy shit... the test for placement was so hard... the school I am going to doesn't have many exchange students. In fact there are a grand total of 4 new ryugakusei... there is one other american...
There are 2 others that were there a semester before me, iceland I think. Its a big school too, just haven't done alot of exchange stuff yet I guess...
On campus is diffrent then the rest of Tokyo. I can walk around Tokyo and people will for the most part ignore me. I get some stares but nothing too bad. However on campus, the people will look and wonder if I wondered in off the street or if I got lost. I have to carry my id card all the time.
My Japanese has to improve...
