Toshi and I went to NY today. We parked the car in Flushing as always, then went to eat breakfast. The place that we chose was really not good. We didn't like the food at all. Kind of feel wasted my money. Anyway, after that we went to Hong Kong market for change single bills to 25 cents(for parking). Right after we went out from Hong Kong market, we met Kayoko, Mari and Guoli. We were so surprised to see each other because Toshi and I thought Kayoko just went back to Japan, but she came back for summer classes. So fast!!! How long did she stayed in Japan? Maybe less than a month. After said bye to them, we took subway to Manhattan. On our way to Manhattan, Toshi met two old Japanese friends who were studying in UB. Toshi was so happy to see them and talk with them. They thought I am a Japanese as everybody does. After we got out of subway, we tried to looking for the Japanese bookstore. Even we went there once before, but none of us could remember where is that place. Then, Toshi went to talk with an Asian guy. I thought he is just a some Japanese who were walking on the street, and Toshi just wanted to ask him if he knows where is the bookstore. But, that guy is a Chinese guy study in UB, who can speak Japanese very well, and they met before. He was looking for the bookstore too, and he helped us fought it. We spend more than a hour in there, and I bought two books. After we left bookstore, Toshi took me to a place called Tribeca. Toshi thought there would be a lot of different stores because that's what books says. However, we walked more than 2 hours around there, and we didn't see anything good. The only thing over there is Chinatown. We got so tired and decided go to East Village. So, we took a Taxi to there because we were too tired!!! After we got there, we looked around, and walked around again!!!! Then, started our dinner in FIGHT. That was good dinner with two tired body. When we above to leave, Toshi met another Japanese person who was in the same high school as Toshi, and they talked a little bit. When we tried to go back to Flushing, it was around 10:00 p.m. We were really, really tired. Finally, we got Flushing and drunk some tea, then decided to go home. After we got in the car and tried to go home, Tadami called me. Guess what! He and Yoko were in the same parking lot with us, and they saw we were leaving, so they kind of followed us, but gave up soon. What a day!!!! We were in NY for 12 hours and we met 9 people!!!!! This is a small world after all!!! Anyway, today was hot, fun, tired and wired!
