160. i caught fire, chofu

After staying in for a couple of days, little sis and I decided to go to one of the last hanabi festivals on Sunday. This one was located in Chofu by Tamagawa. I would always pass by Tamagawa whenever I met up with Yuri in Hiyoshi and we would always say we wanted to go to that river together because of Nana.

We arrived at Tamagawa station at about 4 in the afternoon and went to the konbini to get some bento sets and were on our way. When we got there, there were already a lot of people sitting on the grass, on their mats having picnics. Both of us did the same, and laid out our mat on the grass and had an early dinner. There wasn't much to do, there were only stalls along the river and I was kind of bummed out that the river was blocked off because I wanted to go down closer to it, maybe next time?

We walked along the stalls but nothing interested us (I'm not into festival food), all we got was candied apples and went back to sit on our mat and wait for the fireworks. We took some polaroids to kill time and mostly just talked and talked, as if we don't talk enough, lol.


The fireworks display started exactly at 6.30pm and people even count down for it, which I thought was kinda cute. They were so pretty and went on for an hour. There were different types of it, there were some that even had hearts, smiley faces and flowers. But for fuck's sake, they were so difficult to photograph so I gave up and just took recorded videos of it.





It ended at exactly 7:30pm and since it was so crowded as people were clearing out, little sis and I just hung around the area for a bit. We finally left and made our way back to the station at about 8ish and to my surprise, the trains weren't as packed as I thought it would be. Getting home from Summer Sonic was actually way more difficult. We got home at about 10 and had a How I Met Your Mother marathon till 2am and passed out right after. 

There has been a lot of things on my mind lately, again. It's strange.
