Taking Over Shibuya. 4.20.15

Taking Over Shibuya. 4.20.15

I don't know if I've mentioned another place for this matter but I think Shibuya might actually be my favorite place to be as of the moment. I don't know. It's just that recently, I've been wanting to see it even though I don't really have a business to do there.










Hachiko. Seeing him (is it a he?) actually makes me miss my Shiki. I actually hope to go to this place with Shiki. Who knows? Maybe he'll be blessed with loyalty. 










Children playing? I actually don't get it but yeah maybe it's just children playing. 










Love the balance that Tokyo has. There might be tall buildings everywhere but there will always be plants and flowers. It's definitely a city of balance. Happy Earth Day today!! :) 









The only thing that I hated that day is the rain. Don't get me wrong though! I totally knew about the rain but I was like, meh. I don't know what's wrong with Mondays but it's always raining and if I would just stay home or something, I wouldn't be able to achieve anything, really. So I went. 










Took this because it reminds me of my uni. Yup! Anything ancient looks like UST to me. I miss my school. 










Snack time!! Actually, I ate lunch there too (at Pepper Lunch). Wish I was able to document that but nah. Too hungry. 










There's this place for fruits, crepes and parfaits, and I got their Pelican Mango Parfait. 









I love Mangoes but this kind of disappointed me some were sour but mostly sweet slices. But still. 









Going home already. I was supposed to go straight to Harajuku but since it was raining, I did not. Sad story. Anyways, I enjoyed my mini trip. It was awesome. See yah!

Taking Over Harajuku/Shibuya. 2.9.15

Taking Over Harajuku/Shibuya. 2.9.15








To be honest, this is like already one of the cutest stuff I've seen in Harajuku. I also didn't see much "gyaru". I've seen probably 6 of them. Sad. 












There are quite a lot of stores in this place and if you just want to spend your money buying stuff, you'll enjoy your time here for sure. 







First crepe store I've seen







Going to Takeshita street





It's actually quite near Harajuku Station so you'll never go amiss. 









Takeshita Street





Just this street alone will feed you cute stuff! And your stomach too. 










Takeshita street is actually kind of small but really full of cute finds. Like, shops after shops. Candy shops, dress shops, restaurants, like, not a single space wasted. And I like that they're all Indie-ish and cute. 







Crepes! 





Being totally bias, I bought my crepe at Marion Crepes. No idea which one to choose so I chose the one with the longest line. I think the one I got was called Banana Cheesecake or something. It was kind of cold that day so I didn't order the one with the ice cream version whichI bet would be awesome in summer.







Crepes display





Very curious what veggie crepe tastes like. Should I? Should I? 







Angels Heart Crepe







Santa Monica crepes 





I don't know what is it about Harajuku but there were lots of crepe shops. I'm not complaining. LOL. I think they have like at least 3 Santa Monica crepe store in the area so I'm looking forward to trying some from that shop. 










Harajuku is not only a place for cute stuff but oh my gosh also a place for high end stuff. Chanel, D&G, Dior, and a lot more side by side and I was like, okay, going the other way now. LOL. 







Harajuku Station







Selfie 





Not that these selfies have anything to do with Harajuku. Like, it's difficult traveling alone I feel like. Kind of hard taking pictures of yourself with the stuff that matters. My face matters. Hahaha










It's kind of a vintage looking station and I'm actually really into it. It's not as fancy as Tokyo Station though. I think. 







People crossing the street







Harajuku H&M and Forever 21







Lotteria





After a very long walk, I had this and went to Shibuya. At this point, my feet is really aching because of wrong decisions. Hahaha damn you heels! 







Touchdown Shibuya







Shibuya lights










If it weren't for my aching feet, I would have stayed longer in Shibuya. It's so pretty there!! Like, lights everywhere and stuff. 







Hachiko statue





I miss my dog Shiki. To my disappointment though, didn't take a selfie with it and it's underrated. Like not much people cared about it there, I feel. Lots took pictures though and boom, done.







Pretty!!! 





Will definitely be back!! It's so festive. Me likey.
