One day at Kabukicho #DAY125 - I want to take more various photos in this city this year.
Half a month has passed since the new year began and I has started to get busy with work smoothly. I feel somewhat emotionally unstable, but if I get frustrated with something, it makes me forget about it for a little while and getting better a bit taking photos coming to Kabukicho. It's super important to change my mood.
年が明けて半月経って仕事も順調に（？）バタバタしてき出した。なんか微妙に情緒不安定な気もしつつ、でもまあムシャクシャしたら歌舞伎町に来て写真を撮っていれば少しだけそんなことも忘れられる。気分転換超重要。
It was Saturday night and it was quite early compared to usual, with still a few hours left until the date changed. Maybe because of that, the parking lot where I usually park my car was full. But there was just one space left in another parking lot just next to that, so I parked my car there.
この日は土曜日の夜、日付が変わるのは数時間後といういつもと比べて結構早めの時間。そのせいかいつも停める駐車場は満車で隣の駐車場がギリギリ1台空いていて駐車した。
It snowed a little bit even in Tokyo. I wasn't outside during the time it was snowing, but even after the snow has stopped, it was still very cold. When I checked the temperature, it was only 2 degrees.
都内でもちょっとだけ雪が降った。雪が降っていた時間は自分は外にはいなかったけど、雪が止んだこの時間でも寒い寒い。気温を確認すると2度とかしかなかった。
Even though it was so cold, this city is still bustling as usual, as you can see. It may be different if snow piles up, but the cold itself doesn't matter.
それだけ寒くてもやっぱりこの街は見ての通りいつも通りの賑わい。雪が積もったりしたらまた違うのかもしれないけど、寒さはあまり関係ない。
I realized once again that I am really not good with crowds. Recently I didn't mind it because I usually come to Kabukicho late when there aren't many people, but I'm still not good at timeframe that there're many people around like this time. Well, in the first place, the area around TOHO BLDG is always crowded with people except for the back of the building.
ただやっぱり自分は人混みはかなり苦手なんだなって再確認。いつも歌舞伎町に来るような遅い時間だともうこんなに人はいないから気にしていなかったけど、このくらいの時間の人の多さはやっぱりダメだ。まあそもそも東宝ビル周辺は建物の後ろ以外は人が多いもんだしな。
So, I came to the back of the TOHO BLDG. See, there aren't that many people here even at the same time as I thought.
そんなわけで東宝ビルの裏に来てみた。ほら、やっぱりこっちは同じ時間でもそんなに人が多くない。
By the way, actually after various measures such as guidance for young people at the end of the year, the number of people in the so-called "TŌYOKO" area has decreased compared to before. I think it's just a temporary thing though anyway. Regardless of the amount, garbage of lunchbox, cans of drink and so on are still scattered around as usual.
ちなみに実は所謂トー横も年末に青少年の補導とかいろいろあった後は前に比べると人が少なくなっている。まあ一時的なことだと思うけどね。こうやって弁当のゴミとか量はともかく相変わらず普通に散らかっているし。
I want to take more various photos in this city this year, but along with that, I want to return myself to a normal state as last year was too overwhelming and made me feel unstable, as soon as possible. Well, what I can do for a single day is limited, so I take care of each of those days.
See you then.
今年もこの街でもっといろんな写真を撮っていきたいんだけど、それと併せていろいろありすぎた去年のせいですごいフワフワしている自分自身の状態も通常営業の状態には戻したいだよなぁ、早いこと。まあ一日にできることなんて限られているんだけど、その一日一日を大事にしつつ。
ほなまた。
