Gaijin Invasion

Okay mister Junichiro Koizumi. I'll take your word for it and visit your wonderful country.

I'm leaving for Japan on Monday the 4th at 10am and will be arriving in Japan on the 5th at 340pm. Staying until October the 4th.

I'm eagerly awaiting my hearty "yokoso" and smile once I step off the plane.



Though last minute preparations are making me feel:
I've been pacing around the basement all day today...
When I get nervous or anxious I tend to pace =

I'm looking forward to seeing japanese animals though.
I hear the cats over there look like this:

Video: SUPERFLAT MONOGRAM

An ad campaign for LOUIS VUITTON by Mamoru Hosoda. an updated alice in wonderland, in which a girl, searching for her lost cell phone, floats in a dizzying world of the company's logos. While waiting to meet her friends outside of a Louis Vuitton store, Aya's cell phone is eaten by the LV Panda, who then promptly swallows Aya - but the inside of his stomach is gateway to a psychadelic wonderland. Based on characters created by famed superflat artist Takashi Murakami.

The LOUIS VUITTON store featured in this video is the Omotesando in Tokyo, Japan.

If you can't view the vid then you need this. (If you're using firefox and only see a white rectangle, scroll down and then back up and it should show the player. I dunno why it does that.)
Youtube isn't the only online video streaming site ;D

Chinese Lantern Festival

On Sunday we decided to go to the Chinese Lantern Festival at Ontario Place. I had no clue what the festival was or that it was even going on but when's the last time you went to a LANTERN FESTIVAL? It was kind of pricey though... $25 regular price, but we ordered online and got some deal where it cost $18. To look at lanterns... Chinese lanterns...

It was really nice to do something different (when's the last time you went through a mirror maze?) and I always like events where I get to take pictures =D

You can check out these pics on my flickr page for bigger versions and stupid notes and comments that I made.

Before we left, we passed this free outdoor karaoke box where it seems like contestants from canadian idol were practicing and somehow everyone got Young to sing Bohemian Rhapsody =D

He sang it like a champ!
Take care in Africa bro. Lions usually hunt at night.

Sorry about the crappy quality. My phone freaks out when the volume's too loud... and Young was rockin out so hard that my phone couldn't handle it and almost shattered in my hands.
(What's up with the kid that walks over by Young and chills there for a bit and then walks back? o_O)

It took me all day to setup lightbox(the picture loading thingy) and convert this video. I'm such a dork XD
