Harajuku to Shibuya

Finals are this week and last week I had to give a speech in Japanese that I had to memorize. Needless to say I am really stressed out. My friend Katsuku though it would be fun to do something to help me get my mind off things. So after class on Friday we walked from Harajuku to Shibuya and took pictures along the way and looked at a lot of the shops. Harajuku is rather famous for being a place with a lot of clothing shops that are suppose to be cheap. The styles vary, but most of the pics I took are of some of the crazy stuff they wear and oh they do wear it. It is pretty crazy the price people pay for cloths. Some shops by clothes from A&F, Old Navy and other such stores bring it back to Japan and sell it for 4 to 5 times what one can get it in the states for. But, even GAP (GAPU if you are Japanese) sells clothes at a ridiculous price.


We spent about 5 hours looking at places and walking and had dinner before we called it a day. It was really fun and it helped to get me a little more relaxed going into finals. To see the rest of the pics check out my flickr account.

I cannot believe that I just wasted that much of my time laughing at those dumb Hard Gay videos.

I am both amused and ashamed. :)
