i hate how much of this is about elkin and her bad boyfriends

i’m still upset at her for the way she talked about japanese cuisine and women

now she is in tokyo calling everything ugly and saying traditional japanese food is inedible and complaining about eating fish testicles and all sorts of nonsense and it is pissing me off because
1. i did not pick up this book to read a white woman complaining about japanese cuisine
2. it should be me in tokyo

i’m bored

i’m having a great time. got to the london part. feeling wistful. miss u iris and michele and lauren and even ali raza what the hell him too in case he ever sees this

just started this one! was thrilled to find this at the (somewhat) local library (it’s a 10 min drive and i have no car) as i’ve been wanting to read this pretty bad recently! just because my class made me interested in thinking about the marked flâneur and i like thinking about cities in general. and lately i like walking. #yup
