Swallowed up by Tokyo: Photo Style!



On our first stroll to wrap our head around the streets of Fuchu, Tokyo we were mainly consumed with attempting to walk properly (on the right or the wrong side of the street) without getting run over by overly energetic bikers. 







We were easily infected with the kawaii virus, which left us quite helpless to finding almost the entirety of all objects in the streets beyond the realm of cute, at which point we were simply squealing - even the boys (*ahem* men). 



On Day 2, I can only describe my feelings of meeting the Techos College students with their overly exuberant laughter and dance moves as they cheered us on as we introduced ourselves after they charmingly persuaded us to walk on a red carpet (a.k.a. Rachel's blog post), no less, as this: 



The Technos students here are so wonderfully talented, specializing in culinary arts, graphic design, hotel management, aviation, wedding planning - we are charmed by their ability to design wedding dresses from scratch. 





 Professor Koven, Sandy, Rachel and I had a little too much fun prepping our skills in hotel management in their mock-bar station which is lit with beautiful lights, handcrafted suits, and wine bottles and whiskey glasses lined up to nurture the art of bartending.


Rachel really wants Sandy to sign up for the hotel...really badly. 

We can never truly end the day without a few funny faces. Nancy (Professor Koven for those of you who don't know her and have yet to have the honor of taking any of her Neurosceince and/or Psych classes with her - which you definitely should!) popped a fuzzy one on us. 





If   you  suddenly find yourself in the path of this little treat,  walk forward, prep your taste buds because you're seriously in for a sour ride. 

Pop one in your mouth. 

Close your eyes and let your nose wrinkle, eyes close on impact and squeal with utter confusion at the sudden change of taste.

 P.S. I was a total pro at eating this. :) 
Welcome to Japan!


Until next time,
