Today after school the volunteers and a few of us were trying to decide on a place to go. Many of us had things to do at night so it had to be someplace nearby, and if possible somewhere new for the majority of us. We had picked a place called Shimo-Kitazawa, just a few stops away from our home Shimo-Takaido.
We caught the train there by 5:30 or so and walked around what seemed to be quite a large town. It reminded us a lot like our own town but with many more stores and restaurants filling the streets. There were many up-beat clothing stores selling the latest trends in Japanese fashion, and many little jewelry knick-knack stores for girls. We hadn't stayed very long before a few of us split up from the larger sum of the group to go do our own thing.
I followed Annie-sempai to a bubble tea drink shop that made an excellent Taro bubble tea and other sugary delights -- crepes. After finishing up my drink I walked by myself back to the station to get home and back out by 7:00 to meet Kidae and a few of his volunteer friends for dinner.
Kenji and I met Kidae, Erika, and Sayaka outside the McDonalds, and waited for the others to arrive. We walked over to Tatsumi - the Izakaya we ate at for my birthday - because they usually have enough room for eight to ten at any moments notice. We talked and laughed all night, and wound up going to the 280yen Izakaya shortly after our meal for some after drinks. We hadn't ordered more than one drink because the two volunteer girls had to catch the trains home soon after arriving to the Izakaya. After some bai-bai's we walked home to rest up for another day.
