9:47 PM
last night, i was walking around some bookstore as my host brother wanted to buy some books ... and since they were all in japanese, there was nothing else that i could do but just to walk around the store. and so, i stumbled into two sections:
the
first section, was a manga (aka japan comic) section, and i have a huge admiration for these drawings so i just browsed through the section one-by-one by just looking at the pictures. and then, there were one title that caught my attention, and since the books were at the lower racks of the cupboard, i had to stop and looked down, and try to stretch my head to see the pictures clearly.
at the corner of my eye, i could feel that many ppl were staring at me and so, i looked up　and i was right. i was wondering what went wrong, and i look around at myself to see if my heels got caught in some tissue papers again or some sort, but i found nothing. so i ignored them, as i wanted to continue to browse through the books again. but as soon as i looked up at the racks again, i realized what was wrong.
i was at the gay-manga section. 2 illicit guy-couples (some are even half naked) was at all the covers!! i quickly turned my head and walked away, with my face blushing.
at the
second section, i was at the music area, whereby they were lots of cd's and dvd's. so as i was walking through that area again, i noticed that there were some narrow lane that contains lots of colourful magazines, and i was wondering how come they are secluded from the other books section.
as i walked closer, i finally got my answer: it was a section that sells mainly pornographic magazines. taht explains why they're all guys ...
ah, japan. bet the guys (and gays) just love that place ;)
