i think being in Japan for more than a week has caused me to heck care about Japanese customs and what nots. and i think i was prob overly concerned about not causing trouble for the rest. it seems like wherever i go, whatever i do, it's within the acceptable boundary of what people will expect, so i let down my guard today (and promptly started to sleep on the subway again. LOL)

finally went to a shrine today just to see what it's like. i think we should build churches within lots of trees too! no wonder God calls us to come to Him in solitude. i really enjoyed walking through the whole bunch of tall trees (though it was raining like crazy and my feet hurt like mad after walking on rough gravel through the entire trail).

it's 7.46 Japan time but i'm super sleepy D:
