Photos

Hello Everyone,
I am currently uploading my photos (i have over 300 so far!) and figuring out the best way to show them to you all. My flicker link is http://www.flickr.com/photos/sk8kiran/. However, flickr only lets me upload about 50 pictures a month. Considering I did not upload any in April, I am experiencing a log jam in my photo posting. Anyways, check out my flickr for some of my photos. Arata has posted his pictures of our Nikko trip on his flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/arata_sakamoto/.

On a different note, the "writing spider" is still crawing around on my back. It is itching me to put into words (for my own sake) the complexity of observations, experiences, and feelings that come into my crazy Tokyo life. And as with the pictures, there is a log jam in my mind of things to write about: the times of confusion, euphoria, hardship, discovery, and pure fun. I will produce soon, just hoping the dust will settle.
[this is a photo of me at the ubiquitious "Pachinko Parlors" (gambling places) in Tokyo. You put these balls into a "pin ball" like machine and turn the knob just the right amount and hope that you win, I am still completely confused with its appeal... But, suprisingly, I have found myself becoming increasingly addicted to it. I can't stop playing, after class, before class, until 5 AM in the morning. Maybe this is why I can't find the time to write about this place? hahahaa OK OK, i am just kidding...]
