♥ 4:09 PM

School started yesterday and it felt good to be studying again, and this feeling is further intensified with the knowledge that this'll be the last semester I'll be spending there. I've mixed feelings about my impending graduation - most other people I know aren't going on to their fourth year as well, and I thought that's a pity. Or maybe that's spoken from the viewpoint that I can't exactly qualify for honours and that they do, and yet are giving up this chance. Ohwells. I guess I've been through this issue many times already, so this'll probably be the last time I'm going to mention it.

Anyways. I finally got my lazy ass around to uploading the Japan photos. Mind you, these are just the tip of the iceberg, but if you want to look at the rest of them, they're on my FB. Yep.


Ros and XW sending me off at the airport, and transit at Bangkok.



First day in Hiroshima, Japan. We walked non-stop. Visited the Atomic Bomb Memorial Park. Sombering indeed.



Visit to Yamato Museum (of Science and Technology). A very interesting place. And very yummy okonomiyaki for lunch. =D



Visit to the Mazda Museum. We also got to watched their assembly process. Cool.



Discussion with the students of Hiroshima City University. I love their campus!



Oyster factory and Miyajima - Hiroshima's known for its oysters. I lovelovelove Miyajima. A very pretty and tranquil place.



A whole weekend spent with my host family. Their little boy is too adorable for words. (((:



Day 1 in Osaka. Visited Osaka Castle and the day which I fell sick as well. =/ We also ate yummy takoyaki!



Went to Shinzaibashi for some shopping.



Kinkakuji in Kyoto. This temple is made of real gold - truly spectacular.



Rinku Premium Outlets - my most favourite place in Osaka! Spent close to 10000yen (SGD130) here. This place houses all the American brands selling at discounted prices. Woots.



Mount Fuji and Tokyo Disneyland!



And again!



Tokyo Tower - I've been dreaming about coming to this place since like 5 years ago? A dream come true! And so very pretty at night.



Akihabara, Harajuku and Shibuya. More shopping! =DDD



Last day in Japan at Narita Airport. Can't wait to go back there again!

Yep, guess that'll be all for now. Till then again, tata~
