Money changes everything
This weekend has been very calm and the past school week was quite effective. I got many things done and I feel as if I’m progressing when it comes to Japanese.
I spent Friday night with Pia and her friends at a restaurant on the 49:th floor in Shibuya. The view was amazing and the food was very expensive since it was a quite exclusive restaurant. But I think that the experience was worth the money. Someday maybe I’ll be having dinner at restaurants like that one everyday…but then it would become boring, wouldn’t it?
Saturday I spent with Ayumi in Shinjuku trying to find something to buy but there are so many things to choose from so I couldn’t find anything. Weird…
Japan and specially Tokyo is a consumer society, there isn’t anything you can’t find here. Sometimes I get tired by just entering the stores. Music is so loud and there are people and things everywhere. But other times I love it. I don’t think I’ve understood how big this city is. The distances are amazingly big and it’s more than I can understand. My brother told me about this future urban project in Tokyo called “Sky city”. In Sky city there is room for 35 000 full-time residents and 100 000 workers…huge…

Hola Indra,
Te agradecemos mucho la postal que nos enviaste, la recibimos ayer. Segun parece te encanta Tokio y te quejas de que tuviste que esperar 23 años para poder descubrir esa perla. Eso es lo bueno de visitar diferentes culturas y gentes, algunos nos gustan mas que otros.
Leí en la prensa que Japon había tenido un fuerte terremoto, el más fuerte de los últimos 30 años. A pesar de eso como que no se sintió en Tokio ni afectó en algo a los japoneses - y el tsunamí que esperaban pues como que se quedó en esperas.
Tus abuelitos, don Jorge y doña Fanny viajaron ayer a Cali donde piensan pasar una buena temporada.
Bueno Indra, que la sigas pasando chevere y te diviertas mucho.
Saludos y abrazos del tio Toto y la tia Birgitta.
