Hope you enjoy this blog about my trip and experiences in Japan. Leave me comments just to say hello, or ask me questions about the trip. Maybe I'll answer them? Who knows.

Purikura: A Story by Riley

Once upon a time, there were six lovely young ladies. They were clad in their uniforms, and were all in a jolly mood (except for one, who was very spastic). It was around the hour of one, and they were headed for a leisurely stroll to get "oot and aboot", accompanied by their teacher, Mr. Campbell. They were in search of the awe inspiring, fantastic Purikura Photo Booths.

They arrived at the mall in good time, and started their search immediately. They searched the mall high and low, but alas, there were no machines. The went to the mall beside it, but still, no Purikura Booths. They asked train-goers using their translators where they were, but it was no good. The searched the street, the Starbucks (where we got drinks), anywhere they could find. Finally, someone gave them directions. They followed their hand-drawn map, only to realize the arcade was a mere 250 metres from where they started. But still, the girls jumped for joy (literally) and began to have a grand time.

A short thirty minutes later, as they had spent the other two hours looking for the machines, they had heaps of pictures to show for what they had accomplished.

So as you can tell from my amazing storytelling skills, we did Purikura five times (well I did at least), which means that I've done it ten times in total... So far. Mwahahahaha! :)

Anywho, today was actually pretty eventful. There's a new girl from Australia named Gwen who is here for I think a week? Not sure. She's sixteen and pretty cool. Love her accent, even though it isn't as strong as most. Will see her tomorrow at the Sports Festival.

Took some pictures of the school today, but I'll put them up later, because this post is long enough with the nine Purikura photos. :)

Worked on the TV show for a while tonight. Finally remembered to get the flip camera from Claudia. :) Almost done; just have to shoot a few more scenes first. Like the ending...

We made signs for the door to Room 143 (our room). Check it out:

For when we are in the room. It has a polar bear, a beaver, Justin Bieber and a pregnant, maple syrup drinking Celine Dion on it.
For when we are out. It says, "Oot and Aboot" on it, and has a lumberjack, a polar bear, a beaver, a Canadian flag and an evil penguin on it.

Obviously, we were joking about what a stereotypical Canadian is like.

That's all folks!
