I'm at Khaosan Ninja right now (Since I had a good experience with their place in Fukuoka.) It's pretty decent altho I wish I had a single room like last time!

I definitely want to do that when I come back with Vek in December. I'm more of a fan since Flying Get came out.

If you are in Tokyo, go to Ueno, go to Ueno Park near/at the train station, then hit the Warrior Celt right next to it for a few drinks in the evening! Other than that, the place is huge, I don't think it will be hard to find anything of interest if you look even a little
Thanks for the recommendations. I have so much to think about for my next trip :D

Good Smile Cafe.
Shibuya cafe PARCO is branded as Kalafina café until 11.26, due to the release of Kalafina's third album. Plus an exhibit + merchandize. I am biased as Kalafina is my favorite JPop group right now

Hope you have a great time, and Happy Birthday! (:
It's my favorite series at the moment (aside from Ao no Exorcist.) and it's pretty much the reason I decided to come over. That and shopping lol. Thanks!

good times.... good times
I'm not really scared of the flying aspect, but take off really frightens me. I'm fine with landing though. It was a relief to at least have tvs in the back of the seats to take my mind off of it this time. My Mum loves flying though. She's a holiday junkie.

Also, Happy Birthday!
I know I told you over PM, but you are an awesome human being. I'm totally going to print this out, laminate it and use it as a keychain on my bag XD XD

akihabara is okay, but it starts all looking the same. Be careful walking too far away from the strip (although it is tokyo, so it's still pretty safe). Lots of maid cafe's and other...unsavory places there.
have fun ^_^
Thanks for the advice. I'm a pretty scary girl *nearly six foot and not skinny. So I can handle myself, but I'll keep that in mind.

I don't understand why people hate flying. It makes me sad when the person with the window seat closes the blinds (ok, I've only flown once in memory, but it annoyed me). You get to see the ground zoom away! And see what clouds look like when you're beside them... it's cool :o Okay, to say I don't understand why people hate flying is a lie, but I just wanted to say that I think it's an awesome opportunity to see things from above and people who close blinds are jerks for wasting it. Even a little kid wasn't looking out their window... too distracted by some cartoon.. stupid kids..
My mum is definitely of the same mind as you. She loves sitting there for hours just checking out the view and chilling out. I'm only really scared because of my emetophobia. It makes take off really rough for me, and I get stressed out. I did enjoy the view on the way to Korea though. I had a loooooot of time to admire it. I also love watching the view change as you come in to land.
Yeah, they're called Rock Musicals and there are quite a lot of them. They also just started up again with another production in the last couple of months. My friend went to see it live, and apparently the singing was uniformly excellent. I've only seen one of them myself, but you can download most of them online. My favorite is still Kuromyu 2. It's got an opera singer, amazing costumes, gorgeous songs, one of my favorite actors in sexy lingerie, and a nutty pervert count singing rock ballads to girls in bloomers.
