Hello everyone!
Welcome to tangGuo’s journal on te Land Of The Rising Sun, Japan!
alright alright, as u can see, Japan’s naional colour is red n white, but then icouldnt use white here, so i’ll have to use bloody sexy red
ooh hoo
here we go!!
Once a upon a time
there was a lttle girl, who got so fascinated about the japan culture after reading so many comics,
learning bout geisha n sumo, having lunch at sakae restaurants n he ntuc fairprice sushi,
she have a sudden urge to go to Japan!
to find out the myths n legends n believes of it
haha!
ok so when she arrive there, she was expecting to see tons lots of beautiful n sweet kawaii jap girls
but then within her band width was like, erm, ths is very normal
its just lke the girls in Singapore
there fat n ugly ones, there nice looking ones, theres girls without make up on
hahahaha!!
okay that was bad bout the description of the jap girls right?
oh well, thn we took a train from the airport to the heart of the town
we had problems locating the destination n the fare price at first
but then i figured it out n took the correct one
then transfer to another line somewhere.
the total trip was around 1h 30mins just to reach the heart of Tokyo
the train expreience was not bad
it was quite fast though..
however the platforms was bad.
if u have a very lousy sense of direction, i wouldnt recommend u to take free n easy
the platforms have tens n so many tracks.
u can easily get confused n miss the ones u wil be taking
oh hahahaha!!
then i reached Shinjuku, the place where i stay
oh my god, there wasnt any lifts or escalators or whatever that can carry us around
so we have to carry our big big luggage with our small small hands n body to the exit
oh my oh my
thats a dreadful exp huh
plus the facts that there a so many exits in the train station that u wouldnt know which exact spot u are at
oh no
hahaha!!
but i got a good sense of direction, so i led the way out of the mini maze n got out safely!!
haha!
so we waited at the bus stop to get a free shuttle service to THE HILTON to meet Paris n Nicky
god damn it
the hotel was qite nice, a relatively 5 star one, yeah its the hilton family’s hotel.
but it wasnt as nice as i expected
the room look normal to me, like any other 3* kind
but the beds are super single, nice n comfy
haha!!
the tv was plasma flatscreen, but then the surrounding view of the window wasnt nice
all i can see was a waste disposal kind of incinerator?
yah it gives out real foul smell, to think a hospital was beside it
oh my, i wonder how the patients are going to get good fresh air n recover well besde that THING?
=S
hmm.. yeah, the first day when i arived, it was a sunday
theres a tradition there where on the 1st n 4th of the sunday, people dressed up in halloween costumes
whether its fantasy princess kind, or gothic, they just dress up as the perfect image in their mind
then they will stand around letting people take pictures of them
haha!
so cute right?
so i thought i would wan to take a look there.
oh yah, by the way,
they wil only hav this costume parade at Tokyo, in Harajuku
yeah so i went there on m very first day
but then to my disappointment there wasnt a parade going on there
haha!
i guess i didnt catch the timing right
but there’s still around couple of japanese girls dressing up as french maids, princess dolly n waking around
so i did get to see some of them
but then, they wasnt that good looking, so i didnt get to take dwn their picture
hee pardon me ah
well then we walke around, shopped a little here n there
oh ya. the price there is like GOD DAMN IT
haha!
its expensive. it can actually cost so much for such things, my god
i didnt hve much money there
=(
hee then i went to DISNEYLAND on the second day
i expected it to be very nice, got lots of attractions n rides that will be so fascinating
haha!
so lucky, theres a parade going on the moment i reached
haha!
it was a parade of magical dreams, esp made for christmas
you can take a look at the pictures, though its not welly taken cus i dont have a good spot for it.
stroll around disneyland, played a few rides n GOD DAMN IT
the queue time for the rides is almost one hour for almost every rides
esp the roller coasters.
oh my god!
haha
then my clever papa put the disney resort train ticket in his sleeve pocket n went for a boat ride
the funny thing is on the way thru the ride, my papa picked up a entrance ticket for DISNEYLAND n handed it to my sister
saying that someone lost the ticket.
then i took the ticket, n took a careful look at it, then i ask my sister, doesnt this resemble the one tht we bought?
then she suddenly shouted "DADDY!! THIS IS MY TICKET!!"
then my papa checked hs sleve pocket, well, its true. thats my sister’s, it fell into the water
oh my god. at the same time, he lost 3 train tickets too. ($8 for a ticket)
hahaha!
then i be the great person who smuggle them thru the gateway for the trains
haha!!
very luckily i kept mine with me, *ps little sis, this is called independence* muahahaha!!
alright its not wise to laugh at my papa for losing the ticket
but luckily that he picked that disneyland entrance ticket up
it cost $100 for that
hee!!
its a two day pass for ISNEYLAND n DISNEYSEA
phew!!
but then he got a very very harsh scolding from my mama
poor daddy
then watched the fireworks at the end of the day thn went back to the hotel
well then we went DISNEYSEA the next day
many will really wonder how its like in DISNEYSEA right?
well, the place isnt full of water n u dnt have to take a boat ride thruout the park
haha
basically its aroud the same as DISNEYLAND jus that the attractions n the DISNEY characters are different from DISNEYLAND
u get to see little mermaid, ali baba i mean aladdin, the red indians
haha!
sill got a lot la
its really fun at the DISNEYSEA
ts so different, u can never expect whats going to come out
its better than DISNEYLAND
the rides are better, more roller coasters kind n more performances but the food is better in DISNEYLAND
yeah yeah
watched a couple of nice performances n tok a couple of rides, then the sky turned dark.
it turn dark around 5pm? totally dark those kind.
then went to watch the parade at the habour, a water parade with christmas songs. haha
then i lost val’s gloves there
so sad huh
=(
well i strongly recommend DISNEYSEA rather tan DISNEYLAND if u happen to choose only one of it
then we spent the next few days of our trip shopping around Tokyo
haha! deathnote was quite a hit wave over there.
i wanted to catch it tere, but my papa dont allow me to
so sad right?
hmm. theres always limitations to teavel with ur parents, esp when they nag u to get out of bed early in the morning
hai
there wasnt much shopping though
the prices was like so damn expensive, so pardon me for not being able to buy any presents for u ah
ahaha!
i dont even have enough to by a bottle of coke at the end of the day
thanks to my daddy for buyin it for me
haha!!the jap food was nice over there
its somehow different from here
the sushi was so fresh
oh yah their sushi is made of fishes, nt really lots of eggs n those kind u can find in singapore
the ramensoup is very rich, as in very nice n lots of ingredients in there
its so much better than those at sakae
haha!
i love the cold nooodles there too, nicely done, cheap too
hmm yeah
