私のりょう My dorm

I decided while I was away, that I would write a blog for anyone who's interested in my adventures in Tokyo!
The plane ride was very long yesterday and I had a middle seat because I had to switch with a family so they could be together >.< On the bright side, I had my own personal Pixar marathon, which included Finding Nemo and Wall-E, so things were pretty all right.
The airport was confusing. I freaked out more than once (What if my group leaves me? Where's my luggage? Is this the right line?). I actually almost lost my luggage because I missed it while going through immigration, so I'm glad I found it!
I feel pretty naked without my phone. That's the first thing I realized when I stepped off the plane. I now know how it felt prior to cell phones, and it isn't a favorable situation, but I think I'll be able to cope with it.
The bus ride from the airport was almost 2hours, and mostly an hour and a half of that was actually driving through Tokyo -- it's so big (大きいですよ)! However, I must admit, the ride was more than pleasent. Tokyo is the greenest city I've ever seen! There are trees planted in every inch where there's not a building or sidewalk. The greenery is thriving and beautiful as well.
My dorm is small, but I really like it. The dorm mom speaks only Japanese, which may prove difficult at first, but it'll only help me learn it faster I think!
The weather's gorgeous right now. It feel like 70 degrees outside. Super gorgeous. And the weather for July will supposedly by super rainy and I'm super excited about that :D.
Some of my dorm group and I went to a Hyaku-en (100 yen) store last night and I stocked up on some food. I found rice crispies for cereal :)
I can't wait to start taking pictures -- the section I live in Tokyo is so pretty calm for a city and I really like it. I also like how not too far away is the lively (にぎやか) part of Tokyo, the Shibuya district, which is where my class is located!! It has zillions of flashing lights everywhere, and I even spotted a movie theater.
So far I'm really loving it here :)
