Happy New Year!

Time in the winter vacation has been flying by much faster than usual. I went back home in Shizuoka the the first day of the vacation, spend a night with family and caught up on our news. The following day, I met with a friend from China and some friends came to my apartment to have his welcome back party. I was happy meeting him again. He gave me nice Chinese tea which has fine aroma!

The friends and I went to Shibuya to celebrate the New Year's Eve. We walked around in Shibuya and walked to Ebisu and visited to Meiji Shrine. After that, we went to many places in Shibuya like a sushi shop, a club, an internet cafe and karaoke. It was my initial attempt to spend the night of New Year eve in Tokyo. I was surprised there were many people from other countries in Tokyo that day. I felt as if I were in other country.
