They also have listings of creative jobs. It is pretty useful website if you are interested in contemporary art happenings in Tokyo. I always use this to find where I can stop by along the way.

The party was good. It was packed and certainly had a good sense of community around. Designers, artists, musicians, organizers, curators were there to celebrate the anniversary. It also gave me a chance to catch up with some of my friends I bumped into at the party.

It is not because I am lazy to take a train, but I am just too late for catching a train after work… The day before yesterday, I took a cab from Yoyogi-Park area to Shinjuku station. A cab driver started talking to me.

This is Masanori. Please read my bio if you are interested in more about me, but I have not finished writing it, anyway. As you know, this is my first entry for Metroblogging Tokyo. And I first want to thank you Sean and James for allowing me to participate MetroBlogging.

I thought about what I am going to write for the first entry. But, I was never be able to come up with a good subject matter to start with. So, I would like to share with you what I have been doing in Tokyo these days.

I used to live in New York City by October 2006. I had lived there for more than 6 years in New York before I came to Japan. When I was in New York, I went to college, spent some time in different parts of world after graduation, and did internship in Brooklyn before I came back.
