am back in singapore! actually am quite glad to be back. nothing beats being at home. nothing beats being in somewhere where pple can understand u and u can understand pple.
*
ok, frm wad it sounds, i dont seem to enjoy the trip yea? actually... it's true. i din really enjoy. i guess the pple whom you go with plays a big part. this time round 7 of us went. me, pa, ma, auntie, uncle, cousin mich and cousin esmond. most of the time, im busy worrying abt the folks. scare they'll get lost, scare they r too tired, scare they r too cold, scare their legs cannot take it, scare this scare tt. and most of the times, im following them and ended up, i cant shop for my own stuff or do the things i wanted to do.
*
if we were in m'sia, hk, taiwan or china, i wouldnt worry so much. but it's japan we r talking abt. we SIMPLY CANNOT communicate with the pple there. they SIMPLY CANNOT understand english! and i mean it! even simple words they cannot understand. i really do feel quite miserable there. and they doesnt care if u understand or not. they will juz continue to talk to u in their jap language. i mean, if it were us, and if we know the person cannot understand us, we will try to break the sentence into simple words and use body language rite? but.... THEY WONT lorrrr... they will juz bili-bala in their jap language and bombard u lorr. it's really frustrating.
*
so... with the folks, the pressure was there lor. i have to make sure im ok and more importantly, i have to make sure tt they r ok. so i cant really relax lar. and, heard many wonderful stories of japan. so the expectation was there. and maybe tt's y, it's not as gd as i tot.
*
basically i bought nothing except for food. i also dont know y i bought so much food. it's really miscalculation on my side. actually some of the stuff can also be found in s'pore. i really don know wad's gotten into me. i must be mad. im also stunned with the amt of food i bought. it's juz exaggerating lorr.

but there was juz too much stuff.. along the way, pa bought another suitcase...
*
*
but.... IT'S STILL NOT ENUFF TO PACK ALL THE STUFF IN!!! in the end, we bought yet another suitcase. -_-
*
*
wanted to change the default lock number of the suitcase. seeked help frm the shop attendant, but as usual, communication broke down. lucky the tour guide was there. haii..
*
*
and so, we went with 2 suitcases and back with 4! pengz.. felt really bad... cuz the suitcases werent cheap. if i hadnt bought so much, pa would have save the money.
*
2 suitcases fully packed with food. believe it or not..
*
actually it's all brother's fault. he was the one who told me to buy pocky and cup noodles. in the end, he said he only asked me to buy 2/3 boxes, not so many boxes! ya lar, it's my fault lar. i really don know why i bought so much also.
*
**
look at the number of boxes of food we bought! but... the packaging are reallllyyyy attractive. really irresistable. so juz buy buy and buy.. the big boxes abt 1000-1200yen. small boxes abt 600yen. not cheap. really cannot blame me... too attractive already. i already opened up a few boxes... though attractive, but actually not v nice. quite disappointed.
