in japan

yup, and i am blogging at my cosy one person room at tokyo now. the first day was just CRAZY with lots of dragging 25kg heavy of baggage over to find the hotel, carrying that heavy shit out and in the many different trains and walking till my toes had the burning sensation when i dripped myself into the public hot bath, just to get a japan mobile phone and internet access for communication purposes. i was telling the other 2 girls this trip can really train our stamina and our arm power. maybe i will become fitter when i return. haha. and there is another round of dragging and carrying tomorrow, finally to my permanent stay in japan, my dormitory.

the internet access here is like insane! the plan that we signed up only allows us to use around 50MB per month. any extra bytes downloaded will be charged per usage. i was damn turned off. initially i wanted to bring my external hard disk full with movies and videos to watch. but i thought it is pointless since i will be able to stream my video online. now, it doesnt seem to be that case anymore. luckily, the other 2 girls have movies to share with me or else i dont know how i am going to survive ALONE at chiba for 2.5months. i think i may resort to talking to ants again.

i dont know how the dormitory is like and yes, i am so freaking alone there. and i heard from the lady who picked us up that my dormitory is somewhere along the hill. omg! i will be damn close to nature. will i be cut off from the outside world when i am there. haha. we shall see, just look out for blog and facebook. i need to limit my internet usage per month NOW. like wtf!

anyways, yes, i am scared to go there alone. the language barrier and being forced to face anything that will come in my way alone in Chiba scare the hell out of me. maybe what dabai and junrong said were true, i did not think about the consequences of agreeing to this internship. weighing the pros and cons will just make my head grow big and bigger. i will just have to learn and adapt and handle everything with grace when it comes my way. it is hard to do but i will try. so family, dabai and friends, do bear with my complaints if there are any.

and so we 3 girls went to shibuya, the shopping district in Tokyo and visit the Tokyo tower when we were free in the evening and night. the people they do really know how to dress. couldnt buy anything since i will be on the move again. so everything shall wait. i just need to settle my dear internet access and adapting to Chiba first.

dear all friends, i am not sure if you will be reading this but i really appreciate your effort and time to come down to Changi airport to send me off yesterday. i really appreciate it a lot except for all the laughing at my hair. damn it!! and please do STOP laughing when i return. meanwhile, just miss my presence a lot and enjoy your hols/internship in singapore!

i will be back soon. =)
