Typhoon!

Woo, typhoon Sinlaku. All it means for us in Tokyo is lots and lots of rain. Ick.

Spent 5 hours applying for my alien registration card and national health insurance. Fun, fun. But after that we went to Shibuya, wandered around enjoying our first sight of Tokyo off-campus, took photos of us all in a photobooth at an arcade store, and then went to a bar. My first time ever at a bar! Whee! ... It is quite expensive and makes a lot more sense just to buy alcohol and mix your own drinks with friends, but hey. 

Tomorrow is a tour of Tokyo (sites such as Akihabara, Harajuku, Asakusa, etc) despite continued rain. Although I may not go if it's raining too heavily, I got soaked today and I'm already sick...
