A collaboration of college students

I shared my ride to the Atsugi naval base with an astonishing group of colleagues/teammates from Oregon, Cally, Colorado, and Iowa. The navy base that we stayed on was great. Basically, it's an Americanized navy base with lots of diversity, entertainment, grocery stores, apartments, schools, etc. On base we had the advantage of using the commisary (where everything was super cheap by the way) There is a really cool McDonalds here where they don't use any carbohydrates and they put eggs on their big macs! During my first week in Japan, my group and I went to a comfy and cool Korean restaurant. It was actually a Korean Bar-B-Q where you cook your own food in front of yourself and everyone else. Deliscious! We went to Lawsons and 7-11 where we bought Pocky-a popular Japanese candy- and other basics. One of my favorite stores was the 100 yen store, (aka dollar store). Everything in the Japanese stores seemed to be very clean, neat and orderly. Apparently, Japanese people are the nicest people you will ever meet. One night there was a Japanese restaurant owner who offered to buy dinner for some of my teammates and the other half of the group that I was with decided to stop by to say Hello. Apparently, the owner thought we wanted to eat there, but of course there was no room because the place was so tiny. So, the guy wanted to take a picture with us and his english was terrible, but he tried his best to lead us to another hot spot about two and one half blocks away. In turns out that we loved the restaurant, even though we never intended on eating out that night, but It's rude to leave a Japanese restaurant and not order anything.
