spring has come. but its still chilly today.
after work, yesterday, i went to familymart to get something to drink, and i saw this young caucasian guy with this equally young asian girl in showy (do they really say this?) clothes. i was saying, of course in my mind, "yeah yeah, roppongi people here again..." then, when i got closer to them, i figured out they were speaking in KOREAN!!! suddenly that made me feel calm, then they started to look really kind to me. it was so cool! i was violently moved. i don't know, maybe that's because i've just passed "heartland bar", a place lots of japanese women looking for caucasian, trying to be sex and the city kind of people all the time.
lots of roppongi gaijin guys don't even try to speak japanese, and ususally with japanese girls, they are considered as "cool" here in roppongi, but lots of other people in other area in tokyo think they are so uncool, outdated and misunderstanding.
anyway, then i got this brand new pineapple jelly drink and was going down couple of escalators towards the platform in the oedo line roppongi station. the train just arrived, and huge crowd came out of it. a middle aged yakuza was picking a quarrel at a young person, saying "a~~!? you realize who you are dealing with?" (sorry i don't know how they talk yakuzaly in english)
then i got into the train, there was a foreigner right in front of me, playing with his PSP. i though, "wow~~ foreigners also like video games~~"
then i went to hyakkin, 100yen store in shinjuku. there were a group of chinese tour people. they were really noisy, but they were saying ( i think) "hey this one looks better than that, i am fine, you should take this~~" and again that made my totally tired mind and body feel better, and in my mind i was saying "maybe you like this one too~~"
