Some thoughts and a Japan Vlog!

Boy it's been a while hasn't it?
I've got to say ever since I got back from Japan, I didn't care aymore...I miss Tokyo so much! I never expected that country to have such a big impact on me. Sure I knew I'd love it, but to fall in love this hard? I never expected that.

Scroll down a bit and you'll find the vlog!! :)

(If you care to read my rant on how it sucks to be back and some other random mind vomit, feel free to continue reading.)

I didn't care for being back in London, after being there for nearly 2 months I got quite fed up with it. London is great, don't get me wrong, it's just not for me. I'd rather go back to Tokyo and stay there than being back in England.

Actually I'm not even in London anymore. The stay abroad is over and now I'm back in my own house. It sucks. Oh gosh it sucks big time.
I'd forgotten how much I loved just working (which I did in London), and doing things I want to do with my own free time! And not having to worry about exams, studying, learning, etc.
Being a 27 year old full time student can be quite annoying. But it is a choice I made, because I wanted this so badly, and I simply just have to deal with the consequences, which means studying my ass off, (not really though, i'm not that insane. I do the best I can, but I'll never stress myself out that much).
The thing is because I'm a student people treat me as such, which sucks because I don't have the mindset of a 20 year old anymore. You can treat me like the 30 year old I'll be within the next 3 years!
I don't care about going out, partying.(Don't feel insulted I know not everyone who is 20 is this way!). I care about sitting on my butt and read a good book or make a nice dinner.

I find it difficult sometimes to sit down and make homework. I'll be at my desk, being well prepared to start and then these thoughts come to mind. I need to do laundry, groceries, I need to check the mail and clean the bathroom. What should I make for dinner tonight? Oh shoot I forgot the chicken; "Hi, Darling, could you go by the market on your way home? I forgot the chicken!" (this happens a lot. I always tend to forget something from the grocery store...)
Is it Friday yet so I can ave my weekly coffee with my best friend?....
I need a break...Youtube time! Oh this song is great! time to do a bit of writing on my story.(Have I mentioned I write?)
Homework not done...

I know, I know, its my own mind doing this. I don't complain about it...I simply rant on the blog...
Maybe it's easier to say, "Sorry Miss, I did not do my homework because I was partying all night long."
Who will believe me when I say, "I'm sorry I did not do my homework because my brain is a fruitloop that keeps spinning and spinning."

It's not that I can't focus, because I can. If it interests me of course. Don't we all have that problem? Please tell me you do!!!

I'm currently reading this book called: Thinking fast and slow, by Daniel Kahneman.
Maybe this will shed light on the matter.

In other news, something I totally forgot to upload here on the blog!
It's the Japan Vlog!! I love filming and making pictures, only I was always to chicken shit to upload anything...So I decided to take the step and upload the vlog! The vlog shows places to go and see while your in Tokyo. Just a little - things to see in Japan - vlog

So enjoy! :)

Calico Cat Café

Neko Kawaiiii!!
Did I say that right? ;)

I love cats, love love love them! I've had cats all my life! At the moment I have two cats and I'm missing them terribly. Haven't seen them for almost two months now. They'll be incredibly pissed of when I'll be back home.
Cats are not like dogs, who actually seem to be extremely happy when their owner gets back after a long journey. They jump up, wag their tails...
Cats...nuhuh. They will ignore you for hours or simply walk to the cabinet where you store their food and be like....FEED ME BITCH!

Cats are like humans (women), holding a grudge because you left without telling them where you went.
Maybe it's just my cats who do that.

A few months ago I saw this video on youtube about a cat café. A place where you can spend time with several cats while enjoying drinks and food. (tea, coffee and pastries).
And decided I simply had to go there and see the cats! I need to cuddle cats! Cats love me and I love them :P

I went to Calico Cat Café in Shinjuku. I got lost, which doesn't surprise me anymore. Took me i think a few minutes to find it.
Tokyo is a really big city and because it houses over 32 million people (whih is almost twice the people in the Netherlands!) so the buildings are really tall and a lot of places, shops, restaurants  (like Calico cat café) are situated in buildings on different floors.

Prices are calcuated for the time you spend there. I stayed for an hour which cost me 1000 yen.
Go as early as possible, because the afternoons can get really crowded!
Also you're not allowed to pick the cats up, but you can pet them, play with them, and feed them (which costs extra but atleast then you'll be the centre of attention for them).

Remember to take off your shoes! and leave your bags and coat in a locker (they're big enough to fit a lot of stuff inside). Don't forget to wash your hands and use hand sanitizer. We don't want any sick kitties.

Unfortunately there were a few sick cats. Rnny noses, droopy eyes. The cat on my lap was quite sick, which is probably why she was looking for a warm place to rest. 

I tried to tell the woman the cat was sick. By fake sneezing and saying," Neko, achoo". Don't know if she understood haha. 

After receiving some souvenirs from the cat café I went shopping in Studio Alto, Isetan (which is like Harrods in London) IOIO and Lumine Est. Found a new vest size F (which means one size fits all in). Keep in mind that size F is similar to small and medium sized clothing (even though its one size fit all).

And that was Wednesday!! Thursday will be about... Pokemon centre and Edo Tokyo museum!

Enjoy the Mitchiri Neko march
