EXCLUSIVE: OMOI !
REMEMBER ME TELLING YOU THAT WHILE CAMPING OUT FOR SNEAKS I LEARNED ALOT OF NEW THINGS AND MY FRIENDS OPENED MY EYES TO NEW STORES. JUST TO LET YOU KNOW WHILE CAMPING OUT I WAS HANDED A STORE BY THE NAME OF OMOI AND FOR ME IS FULL GREAT THINGS AND EXTRA COOL TOYS. NOT JUST ANY TYPE OF TOYS BUT TOYS THAT I KNOW WILL SET OFF GREAT COLLECTION EDITIONS FOR US( SHE CARRIED THE RON ENGLISH MC SUPERSIZE/MINI). ON MY FIRST TRIP THEIR ABOUT A MONTH AGO I WAS HYPED UP ABOUT THE STORE OMOI AND THE HYPE LIVED UP ,AS SOON AS I WALKED IN I NOTICE THE TOYS PILED UP TO THE CELLING LOOKING RIGHT AT ME THAT WAS ALL OVER THE INTERNET. ALL THIS TIME I THOUGHT PHILLY LACKED A GREAT STORE LIKE THIS AND IT WAS RIGHT IN CENTER CITY. THE STORE IS ALSO BASED ON A JAPAN THEME, LOOKING AT THE WALLS I COULD TELL THIS AND ALMOST EVERYTHING IN THE STORE WAS FROM JAPAN
.....TALKING TO LIZ (THE OWNER OF THE STORE) WAS RECENTLY LIVING IN JAPAN FOR A WHILE .. SHE FINISHED HER HIGH SCHOOL YEARS IN JAPAN AND ALSO ATTENDED COLLEGE IN JAPAN. WE TALKED ABOUT HOW DIFFICULT IT WAS WHEN SHE FIRST GOT THERE LIZ SIMPLY STATED "IT WASN'T THAT HARD TO OBTAIN THE LANGUAGE AND AFTER A FEW YEARS YOU GET USED TO EVERYTHING"... SHE ALSO STATED "IT'S NOTHING LIKE PHILADELPHIA ON HOW EVERYONE IS AND THAT IT'S COOL ON HOW THINGS ARE BECAUSE EVERYONE WANTS TO BE DIFFERENT SO IT'S LIKE A COMPETITION LEAVING THE HOUSE IN JAPAN"....LOL SHE WAS A VERY KIND PERSON REALLY DOWN TO EARTH AND GOOFY(I LIKED HER) LIZ BIG UP'S TO YOU AND SHE REALLY NEEDS A TWO THUMBS UP BECAUSE SHE DESIGNED THE STORE ON HER OWN... (POWERFUL WOMEN).. BUT SHE WAS COOL.. AND LOOK OUT PHILLY SHE'S LOOKING TO HOST A SPECIAL EVENT COMING AT THE END OF JULY OR AUGUST ..HOPE YOU DON'T NEED THAT PERMIT LIZ...LOL THE STORE WAS AWESOME THOUGH AFTER SHE GAVE ME PERMISSION TO TAKE PICTURES I DIDN'T WANT TO STOP FOR YOU GUYS AND MYSELF
(I WANT A BETTER CAMERA) AFTER A WHILE LOOKING IN THE STORE I SEEN A COUPLE OF THINGS I GRABBED BUT DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH CASH SO I WILL BE BACK SOON. OMOI CARRIES A NICE COLLECTION OF BOOKS AS WELL LOOKING IN THE STORE SHE HAD A WALLPAPER BOOK FULL OF PICS FROM THE ACTUAL SITE, I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW WALLPAPER HAD A BOOK. THE STORE HAS A NICE JAPANESE COLLECTION OF MAGAZINES AS WELL, MENS AND WOMENS SO THE STORE IS UNISEX IN MAGS. LIZ CARRIES CLOTHING ITEMS TOO..LOL SHE DOES IT ALL. THIS STORE HAS EARNED IT'S SPOT IN BEING ONE OF THE MOST EXCLUSIVE SHOPS IN PHILADELPHIA...AND TO LET YOU KNOW LIZ, IM LOOKIN TOWARDES THAT SMART MAGAZINE NEXT MONTH ...LOL BY READING THIS I HOPE OMOI CATCHES YOUR INTREST BUT IF NOT GO TAKE A TRIP ON A NICE SUNNY DAY..THANKS AGAIN OMOI
