Thai festival Yoyogi park - Japan Vlog day 2

I just had the coldest shower I've ever

had. It was freezing. I don't know if it

was just that one particular shower

cubicle or if all the showers are like

that, but the water gets a bit warm, but

it's freezing cold. I was shivering the

whole time. I'm gonna have to try out a

different shower cubicle next time.

Hopefully it's a bit warmer. And I was

wrong about the internet being slow. It's

actually pretty fast. I managed to upload

yesterday's video. It only took about 5

minutes. It's not as fast as Korea. Korea

took like 30 seconds, but it's not bad.

In the UK, it takes about 2 hours to

upload a 10-minute video. Maybe our

internet's just really slow. So today,

I'm not sure what I'm gonna do. I might go

downstairs, have a coffee, check the

internet, and then we'll find out— look

for some place to go, I guess. Got my

coffee ready, just need to add some water.

I put it in this silver packet. And I've

got cereal, but I need to buy some soy

milk, so I'll probably do that later.

And yesterday I bought this huge

bottle of tea, should last me for a while.

Oh, and some bananas.

I just went downstairs and I met I met an

old friend who— he still lives here. I

actually met him like 5 years ago when I

first came here. So if he suddenly appears

in the video, then you'll know who he is.

But he said, uh, he said they're doing

some kind of festival, Thai festival, at

Yoyogi Park, which is in Tokyo. So we're

gonna go there. Um,

I think a few other people are coming as

well. I'm not sure. So yeah,

that's what we're doing today. I'm not

sure if I'll be able to vlog it. It

depends how I feel. I haven't really

vlogged with people while there's people

with me before, so it's kind of strange

for me. Anyway, I'll give it a try, see

how it goes.

各駅に停車します。 We

made it to the Thai festival. It's so

crowded.

They're buying food.

Just queued up for ages to get some food.

So many people here and it's boiling hot.

This is like the Thai festival.

It's mainly just food.

We got some Thai food. We're going to the

park now. I don't even know what

this is, but I'm gonna try it.

And I got some bananas, fried bananas.

Thai no seafood curry.

Now we have to meet up with the other

people, and we're gonna eat stuff.

Hopefully there's like a not too crowded

place. Probably won't be because the whole

place is so crowded, so many people.

Still haven't managed to find our friends.

One of them's wearing an orange jacket,

so we're looking for someone wearing

orange, but no luck so far.

We found them!

Orange.

I got some chicken,

beer, some kind of— I don't know what this

Rice and stuff.

This is a fried banana. It's pretty good.

It's probably the best thing here so far.

I have

no idea what

they're doing.

It's about 6 PM now. Half of the group has

buggered off home somewhere. I don't know

where. There's a few people left. Someone

wants to go bowling. So it looks like

we're gonna go bowling. I'm not sure if I—

if I want to just go home. I don't know.

It's getting a bit late and I'm a bit

tired now. Could go bowling, why not? I

think I'm just gonna go home. So most of

them have gone home anyway, so I don't

really feel like going bowling. There's

not many people left. It's getting kind of

late and pretty cold, so let's go home.

The problem with Japan, the later it gets,

it just gets more and more crowded, so

It's not a very good idea to stay out too

late. When it gets past like 10 PM, the

trains get so crowded. Everyone just gets

jammed in like sardines, and it's not a

nice experience. One— something I like to

I need to get some hair conditioner. I

think this is the right one. It's a lot of

stuff, but it's kind of confusing. I think

I'll just get this one. Just bought

my conditioner. It's kind of strange when

you go out with like a group of friends

and then you end up coming home on your

own. It's kind of sad, but everyone just

starts peeling off and disappearing at

random times. You can't really stick

together. It was actually a pretty good

day yesterday. To be honest, I felt pretty

shitty. I didn't manage to speak to

anyone. I was really tired and I felt I

felt incredibly lonely. I guess I'm kind

of used to it now, even though it's just

been one day. But it's usually kind of

tough on the first day you're here in a

new country. It takes a bit of time to get

used to it. You can't see me, can you?

It's pitch black.

So yeah, today was pretty good. I met old

friends, I made a few new friends, went to

an interesting place. I wouldn't normally

have went to a Thai festival, but it was

okay, I guess. I'm not really that

interested in Thailand or Thai culture. I

don't know what this car's doing.

It's like he's trying to reverse, but he's

trying to get out of his driveway at the

same time. So yeah,

I'm kind of glad I chose to Come home. I

don't really feel like going bowling. So

it's it's half past seven right now. I

just want to go home, edit this video, do

some internets. Yeah, feeling pretty good.

Feel like I've achieved something.

So yeah, this is just the beginning.

Hopefully there'll be more days like this.

And less days like yesterday.

Oh, this house is really creepy. You can't

see it, but it's like a rundown collapsed

house and there's like a crazy person.

Well, last time I was here 3 years ago,

there was like this crazy woman who used

to live there, and when you walked past at

night, she used to scream at people.

Don't know if she's still there. Anyway,

ending the video now. See you tomorrow.
