heyhey.
it's boxing dayy.
slept over at pearl's hse last night.
had a mini party tgt.
i was just feeling super high over there.
and laughed at almost everythg.
lol.
then we all went to watch I AM LEGEND at bugis
haha.
scaryyyyy!!
haha.
pity pearl cuz i kept disturbing her during the scary scenes.
but the movie's not bad(:
though i dont like the cinema there.
caught WARLORDS finally this afternoon.
it was alright.
all three of them died anyway.
four rather.
haha.
come to think of it,
they didnt die during the war
but rather,
they died because of one lady.
hahaha.
but i still think nc16 movies are never fantastic.
i think ive got enough of movies this holiday.
stop.
no more.
oh wells.
really bored now.
trying to get jialong to pick up his phone >:(
on a lighter note,
i replaced my e-string and im back to playing after so so so long.
wheeee..
and now ive got a huge book of songs to play.
gotta get my fingers used to it again.
(:
listening to enhanted soundtrack now.
LOVES

took julia and i to brave the rain, the weight, the headache, the stares and a lot more. haha.
and for me i seriously thought they were a bad idea and they were ugly.
but seeing those happy faces today made me glad. really.
we love you all!
and for those that we've missed out, so sorry!!

it's christmas eve
spent the afternoon with pearl trying to find two ps2 games for samuel and jeremy.
obviously we couldnt find them after going to funan and sim lim square because almost no one plays ps2 anymore!
haha.
oh wells.
hope they can find them back in australia.
went to bugis and got a couple of steals.
the crowds were crazy!
we complained and complained.
haha.
TCC was yummy yummy.
and expensive.
haha.

what a saturday.
thought it would be relaxing and stuff.
but it was far from it.
had an eventful morning with great company and greatttt prata!
love that place(:
lunched in town.
so crowded..
badminton was great even though tiring.
really thank God that my form was still there(:
ytd was pumping with energy within the 1st 20 mins or so.
:D
haha.
but today wasn't that bad.
jtes didnt come so it wasnt as stressful
i had a lot of fun and what shuotian's mom said made my day.
even though i dont know how true it is, im still happy(:
and after so long,
i still LOVE badminton!!
i guess in the end,
the rain didnt dampen my mood. (for long) (:
anyway,
i had werid encounters at busstops and with my ezlink card today.
the uncle made me pay adult fare
waste of money
paid most of my fares with coins.
waste of money.
and i keep forgetting to tap my card to get my rebate now that i dont use concession.
waste of money.
LOVES

thanks buddy(:

haha.
almost took the big rollercoaster.
but felt too sick.
boo.
had macs for breakfast.
day 3: temples and shrines.
not too boring surprisingly.
thanks to leslie.
our wonderful guide(:
day 4: mt. fuji!!
super fun day.
super cold weather.
thank God for the clear weather.
cld see big mt fuji from our hotel windows which was considered to be really lucky for us cuz mt fuji can only be seen clearly once or twice a mth.
slept in tatami rooms tt night.
super funny.
day 5: toyko!
day 6: disneyland!!
super fun.
took many rides.
saw fireworks.
felt like a small kid.
doubt i'll step into escape theme park.
haha. lol
day 7: home sweet home! (:

things tt japan has but s'pore doeesnt/wont have in the next few years.
bullet trains. they dont actually feel tt fast when you're on it. but from the outside. it's real real fast.
warm toilet seats tt helps wash your butt. haha.
almost all japanese automatically standing on the left on escalators/travellators
japanese actually enjoying queuing for rides at universal studios and disneyland. no complains. no nothing.
almost no one wears specs
the babies are super duper cute!!!
phones with functions tt you can never imagine and possibly wont come to singapore anytime soon.
polite people that makes you want to be polite too. haha
cheap neoprints!!! in s'pore it's like $10. over there.. it's like about $5 for the same kinda quality.

things tt i got sick of.
udon
ramen
japanese rice
miso soup
cooked salmon for breakfast, lunch, and sometimes dinner.
mini toilets in hotels. this was one of the worst. haha. you sit on the toilet bowl and half an arm's length away in the door.
tempuras
people talking to me in alien language and continuing even though they know i dont understand (just heard some jap movie advert on tv in japanese. darn -.- )
watching tv for graphics only.
knocking on wrong doors in hotels. haha.

things that i enjoyed
the two rollercoaster rides at disneyland. even my grandmother enjoyed it. hahahha.
mt fuji. we all looked like mad people in the snow. haha.
tatami rooms. hahaha.
the raw meat 'boat' thingie tt we had. salmon tuna blah blah.
shabu shabu on day one.
100 yen shops
the arcades in japan are really cool.
yukatas. haha. think leon enjoyed this one the most. lol. not including charlene. hahaha.

i was told yoshinoya was 'invented' from poor people's meals
unwanted meat soaked in sauce..
and they dont have fish/prawn rice bowls in japan.
only beef bowls or sumtg like that.
to think i ate yoshinoya two days before i left for japan.
haha.

i watched even more movies.
caught hairspray, no reservations and daddy day camp on the plane.
time to add them to my list! (:

overall, i had a lot of fun
and im thankful to be able to go on this trip(:
