Last Train

So now I know when the last train is to my house because I just took it. It runs at 12:15 from Shinjuku station. I am so glad that I managed to catch it, otherwise I would have been screwed.

Anyways, today was a very unproductive day. The good news is that I got to see where my good friend Shoko lives. Her aunt owns a rather large plot of land in Nezu which is near Ueno. She built some apartments and is renting them out to Tokyo University students. The apartments are kind of small, but it is just like living in a dormitory with full amenities. Her aunt visited and gave us these sugar coated grapes. They were pretty gross. Anyway, Shoko was in awe that I had not seen the Miyazaki film となりのトトロ (Tonari no Totoro) so she made me watch it. It was a bit on the childish side, but still a really good movie. We also had breakfast for dinner (pancakes, eggs, sausage) with some dango for desert. There always has to be some sort of Japanese twist in there right? So I ended up staying a bit too late and barely caught the last train home. I will be sure not to do that again.
