JAPAN 2008

The long awaited post on my japan trip.. travelled early October 2008.. Its not an easy trip as i had to fight for my leaves, argued and negotiated.. i proved myself right. i did not made the wrong decision for i probably will be regreted should i stayed for the project that does not materialised back then.. Its the furthest trip i had thus far but wont be for long..

Welcome to Kansai~ its the land that resembled the dragon, where the sun rised.. the eastern country in a typical map. Its the land marked with the high product quality and influences.. be it products made in japan or kawaii gals.. opps.. did i just revealed part of my intention in this trip? hahaa..

Along the way on the tour bus, saw some flats that resembles that of Singapore.. i had travelled so far out of my country hoping to see something different but why do i still felt homely -_-"

a shopping district in Osaka.. i saw a japanese monk by the road.. this photo was casually yet professionally taken hahaa..

walking towards the universal studio in Osaka, saw a group of japanese mei mei's and was caught amazed with their fashion sense hence took a quick pictures of them =X its the first close encounters with jap gals hahaa.. wow wow..

the universal studio.. which will be open few days later in Sentosa, Singapore.. My package doesnt include the universal studio haa.. its a cheaper package that brings us to the Osaka Castle while most of my tour groups belongs to the universal studio package =X anyway.. will be visiting disney so uniersal studio can give a miss lah haa..

a group of japanese student mei meis~ wow.. the kawaii jap students like to take pics haa.. they noticed me and was smiling and screaming at me while im taking pic hahaa.. i should have joined them in the centre taking pics with them hor.. aiya wasted. . hahaa.. why i dont have classmates like them in my secondary school days.. hahaa . .

and here goes the fierce ride.. i really dare to take that ride de.. who wants to take with me?

A visit to an ancient temple.. i like to do this pose while taking photos with the temple hahaa.. my typical temple pose . .

Lots of wishes waiting to be fulfilled.. its not easy to be a deity with today's increasing population..

washing my hands for symbolising goodluck.. i guess it had do me well for the past years..

interesting wooden telephone booth.. so many beautiful scene made me wants to stay in there longer..

bought some food and tibits in a supermarket residing inside a japanese wet market.. i did some hand gesture and english and some broken japanese to finally made her understand my intention to take photo with her hahaa..

went to another famous tourist site with wheats as its roof.. so unique.. the only thing that is deadly to them is fire.. thats why their lucky charm is a cute doll that resembles that of fire knowned as sarubobo..

sneak out to have hot plate supper near the hotel haa.. really traditional and homely feel . .

met a group of people wearing traditional clothings appearing from a dark alley.. dancing and playing instrument and drinking a super big bottle of japanese alcohol.. i thought my eyes were playing a trick with me but they are really human haha.. I thought i only see this scene in japanese cartoon where they party, dance, drink etc..

They were so high until they offered me to stay high together with them haa.. i was quite relunctant actually.. imagine how many of them was actually sharing the bottle of alcohol . .

this is a morning market selling vegetable, fruits, accessories.. i managed to find a good spot with wifi internet connection hahaa.. was standing still waiting for my office emails to be downloaded so that i can read during my bus journey.. i was still thinking of work when travelling lor.. did my colleagues ever think of me when they are enjoying? i doubt lo.. before my trip, people were saying me being irresponsible le.. i still remember..

a very nice scenery with colourful greenery, autumn leaves and waterfall background..

not forgetting my usual kungfu pose hahaa..

mobile post office.. hahaa.. so funny.. the staffs were really professional.. they dont chat while on duty.. and they really sit very still there for as long as i was watching them.. i purposely walked over to ask for stamps and price.. they really can talk.. means they are not robots..

went to visit wasabi plantation.. didnt get to taste it but saw how wasabi came about and the different quality the wasabi is being classified.

a very ex sashimiboat.. a boat llike this cost sgd$200+ .. totally broke.. this pic is precious~

no fate to see mount fuji.. the sky was cloudy and drizzling.. the mountain route was slippery hence we didnt even step on the mount fuji soil.. im sure to visit mount fuji again..

saw a wierd guy carry an umbrella sitting in a bus stop.. is it really that hot? or he predicted to rain.. hmm.. wierd wierd..

its my typical temple post again~ hahaa.. the famous and sure go tourit attraction, 雷门. .

taking bullet train.. the staffs in uniform look so much similar as comics characters and cartoons hahaa..

This is the famous shopping and red light district.. the movie by jackie chan last year also featured on the gang fight in these areas..

so who is fatter? i think the answer is obvious.. so.. pls dont call me piggy!!

my first disney ticket.. just nice its disney 25 years anniversary~

they really look like cartoon characters came alive! so cute chip and dale hahaa..

its another fairy tales of the cinderella and the prince.. the white horse prince hahaa.. there had been few friends trying to guess the reason for me to buy a white car.. i didnt really think of it as a white horse when i chose the colour.. seriously i didnt! hahaa.. and of course i didnt indirectly said im the white horse prince =X

Its every man's dream to meet the snowwhite of their lives.. and this snowwhite looks exactly the same i saw in story book.. hahaa.. snowwhite look-a-like..

The japanese brought their kids along with trolleys.. there were trolley parking services and the parents really look very young.. about my age if im not wrong and they were strolling disney land with their kids and trolley.. wow.. noticed the baby in the trolley is playing with another baby's toy hahaa.. so cute sia..

I also like to take pics of kids and babies.. they are always so natural and truthful to me and most importantly they are cute hahaa.. kawaii baby~ look so cute even when crying hahaa..

ACCIDENT
was caught in an accident 6 march around 2pm at braddell road.. the story goes like this. i was crusing along braddell road.. then saw a taxi signalling to turn right from his stationally position cutting a little bit to my lane.. as i was from far, i was slowing down with an intention to let the taxi take over my lane so knowing that most taxi always cut into lane whenever they have the chance.. however i slowed down and the taxi remained stationally looking at me so slowed down to eventually stationally position and signal to the taxi to drive into my lane.
a second later, i heard braking sound from behind and thats it.. i got a scratch on my hind right..

its not a direct hit behind me.. more of a side brush against me when the 3rd car bang on the 2nd car

The condition of the front bumper after brushing against me.. noticed the bumper dropped and misaligned a little..

The condition of the 2nd car after gotten hit by the 3rd car.. this is serious.. didnt know japan car metal is so soft..

This is the 3rd car front bumper condition after colliding the 2nd car.. european car seems very durable haa..
need to go down workshop to repair my "backside" and file for incurance accident report.. i believe all expenses will be claimable from the 3rd car's incurance.. its an old uncle kept blaming me for causing the accident.. i was like.. dunno what to say .. the accident however definately was not due to me emergency brake .. i slowed down and stopped gradually de..
its either i assume the taxi would cut my lane and just drove straight or i being kind enough to let the taxi cross my lane then move on.. didnt expect this to happen.. so my driver friends, please keep a safe distance from the car in front.. you never know when the car will stop..

今日慧語
今日學到了..
人言不可盡信,即信不可當真。
言出必有悔因,悔之何嘆初衷?
須知,凡事不可同日而語。
賢人,難免曾經言不由衷。
若拿真心之言比承諾,
不如隨性之言比童真..
今日且有所悟,
他日.. (微笑)

历史性的一天
今天是历史性的一天。学会了提交辞呈。
聊起离开后的想法,不经意地比平时爱说话。。
或许上司也留意到了我那久违、不为人知的一面。。也不加以挽留。。
国大给我的不仅是科技学士,更给了我高于科技,比科技更冷漠的。。经历。。
