Happy

New

Year’s

Eve(:

2011 was like whoosh and gone! :( Well, I have only lived 12 short years, and I would think 2011 was actually the best, and the most fun... Well everytime, I will flashback and see what happened exactly one year ago. 2011 January & 2010 December. (I did that last year too)

2009 End of Year & 2010 Start of Year (copied and pasted from my old blog- edited)

" Every year, when you say, this year has gone so quickly, you will think about the start of the year. 2010... So, I am trying to remember what happened on the first few days, or 1st week of Primary 5, 2010.. First day of school, don't really remember.. Just remember, P5 have imm. Then, say, why must change to P5 x( Then, I remember, form teacher, Mr Pang. He lets us sit with the ppl we want to sit. I sat with Chasina, Arika and Rachel Teng. When we switched class, during blue group, it would be Qin Yi, Chasina, Arika, Me, Jia Yin.

We had so much fun sitting together.. :) We sat together for quite some time hahaha :) No one bothered to change our sits I guess, although we are so talkative. I always talk to Chas and up to this day, 2011, we are primary 6, she still complains to me about me always starting the convo and always being her getting scolded. That is some form of history hahas :) She is always grumbling about that and complaining to me. :P

Then after recess we go library luh.. Qin Yi was like running towards me saying ahhhhhhhh! D: Yeah, then boys had to go first. Which left me as the 2nd last person in J!!! D: I was like omg, this is bad... :/ But of coz the worst is K last few.. coz everyone have le then they haven't yet. then its like, People saying, or actually a certain person I think, I am gonna cry!! DDDDD: hahahahahah :) Now to think about it, it was so fun. I wish we can have these type of things again lorh.. :D "

I remember that very clearly too. That was what, TWO YEARS AGO?! D':

2010 End of the Year & 2011 Start of Year

At the End of the year, I thought P6 would be hard, and scary D: Now that I look back, it wasn't hard AT ALL ._. Haiz. On 31st December night, I was at this exact spot, on my computer, counting down and talking to my friends. Then I rushed out to watch the fireworks, then started wishing every one happy new year, and Rachel Teng happy birthday. School started on 4th January (I think), and at first, I could not cope with the school homework because I thought it was a lot, but I got used to it, and I could even use computer the afternooon & complete my homework ): To think of it, I should have used the time to study! And then, 2011 was reallly really fun with my friends, and Valerie. Laughing like crazy freaks everyday in class that Blue Group don't even think it's freaky anymore. And being closer to Blue Group. wow near perfect year!

Thanks 2011, you gave me an almost perfect year!

For back-to-school, for the past years, it was going back to TNS (much looking forward-able). Hmm, new school, what to expect?

Giving my new blog URL later :)

Back-to-School-season

I am usually quite happy during this time, but I'm hesistant this time.

Bought my new school stuff today, with my dad at Orchard. Well, needed stuff ._. Had lunch with him first :D Orchard Road was damn jam probably due to christmas season & clearance sale? Back-to-school for me xD We went to Takashimaya for my school shoes, since my school only allows white shoes -.- Picked up the simplest design for converse white in case I get scolded or whatever for additional lines or designs ._. Also bought 3 shirts & a sling bag. I have a converse sling bag that I used for tuition (when I had a lot of tuition last time), but anyway my dad decided it was old o_O I gotta bring that bag for orientation since I can't bring a school bag anyways. and on the first day of school I have learning lab -_- and my sch ends at 430. learning lab at 5.

Then, while waiting for my dad, valerie called me :) She asked me if I wanted to go back to tns on wednesday (2nd day of school). I can't since my school ends at 530 & rgs probably ends at 4+ too. So I told her the confirmed week would be 2nd week, after orientation and before we become super busy. And the seniors (who will be busy once school starts), wants to go back during CNY. That depends if our school releases us for half-day / no school during cny. but I also don't know when tns will be celebrating cny as well -.- ask my juniors.

Then we went around and decided to go to marina square to buy my pencil case and wallet ._. Once I got home my dad picked my brother up for tea and I packed my room. Cleared a lot of stuff that I can't wear anymore, and for school uniform, cleared all of them (over the 6 years O.O), but kept one each (uniform and PE attire) :D The biggest size in case I wanna wear it to disguiseee into tnss ^^

Afterwards, I packed all my other parts of the room. my room looked like a warzone -.- hate packing rooms. Plus, tomorrow is the LAST day of 2011. I liked 2011 :( In fact I LOVE 2011!! ): WHY LIKE THAT WHY END SO FAST. ME FAVOURITE YEAR... I want to re-live it :O haizz T_T Maybe once I finish packing my room I can snap pictures of my full-day-efforts.

And you are aware that this blog is moving right o.O I will give you the URL tomorrow. This blog was actually a temporary blog, my ex blog was kinda my official 2010/2011 blog, with 300 posts.

Went.
To.
TNS
Today!! YAY OMG!

To collect PSLE certificate with Rachael ^^ They were painting the whole entire building -.- At first, they were moving to bedok (temporary holding school), while tns<3 renovates. But Rachael told me that it is not happening anymore o.O, because of Kong Hwa o_o Idk LOL. Anyway, I don't want it to move ._. Went around taking pictures of tns :P

This part is not that bad

Too blue

Ugly ttm :(

Too dark, I preferred light blue.

wth is this. what kind of colour is this? >:(

Minor change.

My old 6K classroom :'( They repainted the rims. It's nice (Y)

wtf is this?! Isn't the eagle supposed to be gray?!

♥Tao Nan School♥ established in 1906 ;) URHHH Miss tao nan ): Wanted to stay longer but Rachael pulled me out!! D:

Then, we took a bus to I12 Katong xD We went to see the waterworks. For children from age 5-12 only. Rachael is 12 years old and 11 months ;) EXACTLY, because today is 29 December xD hehe, but anyway we look like 13-14, so even if we legally play, I bet we will be chased out. We sat there envying the little children for 15 minutes, took some pictures, before reluctantly leaving xD Then, we went to the playground near Rachael's block. OMG SO FUN.

LOL Rachael so skinny the spring didn't even bend Dx

Rachael ROLLLLINGGGGGGG

The spring almost broke LOL ;D I look crazy. I like it ;D

Afterwards, we had to go back home >: Rachael taught me how to take a bus & she sounded like her mother :O She still told me to text her when she gets back incase I get lost :O hahahaha. Anyway, I got back home soaked because of the stupid rain. Luckily the PSLE cert was laminated.

funnday~♥

Genting Trip

Went Genting from 24th-26th! :D With Yixi & Yijia and our mums :) It was pretty fun! Sadly most of the rollarcoasters were closed because the weather sucked -.- We played in the Indoor Theme Park though :) On the first day, we reached Genting Highlands at like 5pm? Delay, due to traffic jam -.- Afterwards, we went for a meal followed by arcade~! xD We played racing carsss ;) after arcade we went for bowling & shooting o_o My bowling score for that day was abt 65-70 ._. I forgot how to bowl for a moment T.T Then we went shooting!! xD AIR RIFLE. I sucked cos I didn't know how to shoot xP Then it was late, and we went back to the hotel... Played stress & ate cup noodles :) pwned yx in stress :D yj too. I think it's cos we used Uno cards o.o Then, we stayed up till 12+ as my mother had a surprise gift for us. It was a SMIGGLE present!! :DD A standing to-do-list. Gonna be a great gift for Secondary One :) (me and yx)

2nd Day:

We went to the Indoor Theme Park!! :D Took most of the rides & played bumper carsss 4 timesss! HEH. Yx, Yj and I were bumping each other HARD for the first time.

Before going back to the hotel to play iPad/iPhone & STRESS again! :D Pwn them in stress again ohyeahhh. Except sometimes yx win me in stress by ONE CARD. How annoying! :( hehe. Anyway, then we sat on more rides and more bumper cars!! :) bambam. Then we ate cup noodles and cup porridge for dinnner while our mum's when for tom yum :( abandoned us in the hotel >:D We played three blind mice after dinner until we got tired :) Then we played appple productss & stress once more!! :D Mums came back at 1115 -.- so late. we almost called the police!

S1 Posting Results

Yesterday, we received our Secondary One Posting Results. I was still fast asleep at 11pm, but the SMS came at 6am. The very next day, we had to report to our new Secondary School already. Anyway, I selected ahs as my first choice :P My friends asked me to try for better schools, but I didn't because my mum didn't want me to waste my first choice. So yeah, I got into ahs ._. So I reported to ahs today. I couldn't sleep last night, so I only had 3 hours of sleep. Somehow, I still managed to crawl myself out of bed this morning at 7am, amazing. Looks like I have to fix my body clock really soon, if not I won't be able to survive the daily early mornings next year. No more waking up at 7am and still reaching school on time. Anyway, this morning, my mother accompanied me to school as my father could not make it as he was busy with work. I left home at 8am, and arrived at the school gates at 8.15am. Reporting time was 8.30am, I was glad I was early. My mother drove into the School compound, and found a place there, the early bird gets the worm first I guess. By Car, it takes a short 15 minutes, but no one would drive me to school next year, so I will have to take the bus, which will take about 40 minutes. Such long distance, I'm definitely not looking forward to that :( But, oh well. When we stepped into the school, many people came approaching us, handing us forms & flyers. Some of them was about the school bus services for ahs next year. Although I didn't fancy taking public transport, I didn't like the idea of a school bus as well. *facepalm* Hopeless kid. But anyway, I figured I would take the public transport there, I wouldn't want the whole bus to wait for me if I were to be late. I hope that isn't a motivation for me to rise early for school :P The other flyers were talking about CCAs, ranging from Chinese dramas to Uniform groups. I proceeded to the hall with my mother, to register. Basically their resgistration is a simple tick next to your name, and a welcome package. Following, we decided to buy my new school uniform. We queued for so long, only to know that we were waiting for the people-in-charge to open the shops. We waited for about 1/2 hour. The uniform is two-pieced, a blouse and a skirt. Many people prefer 2 pieced uniforms, because it is less hot and stuffy, for us girls, however, I couldn't get used to the 2 pieced uniform. Somehow, being in a school where wearing of Pinofoes was required, I prefered the pinofo much more. To add on, since it was a blouse, I had to pin my own metal buttons. Metal buttons. It has to be put on and taken off all the time, and it can't touch water, if not, it will rust. Rusty buttons are not allowed, of course, then I have to buy new buttons. Seriously -.-" I was complaining to Janessa, and she complained back to me, as she is in dhs. The uniform for dhs & ahs is very similar, except for the skirt colour. Heh, good luck to ny and ahs girls. White skirt. Anyway, I hope I get used to the two pieced uniform and the fumblesome butttons.

Apart from the green, I like it :P Decided, when I go back to tns I will change into PE attire -.- I just hate my uniform. You DO NOT expect me to go to scoop of art with my juniors in my uncomfortable uniform. Oh, by the way, I am supposed to tuck in but I didn't. Half because I didn't know, half because I am a badass :)

And behold the uniform I have been complaining about. Looks nice on the outside but it feels uncomfortable as shit at the intersection of the blouse & skirt. And it gets crumpled easily. How I miss the pinifoe :( The 3 huge metal buttons are seen, and the badge on the left hand corner.

Spent $108 on uniforms. Standard 3 sets of uniform & 2 sets of PE Attire.

After picking up my uniform, my mother and I proceeded to place where they were selling my new schoolbooks. Very absolutely PRACTICAL people. They placed the books in a box, without plastic bag. Well, it is a rather good idea, because in contrast to TNS, they don't have to spend time putting everything in for each and every person, but i thought i would appreciate a bag? :/ So I sloggged the box to my mum's car -.- By then, I was SO hungry, I thought was going to faint :P

1 more week T.T

You know, school is really easy to look foward to if you are in Tao Nan, but now, I just wish time would slow down ._. Judging from all the books, Secondary School is not going to be fun.

Holidays are ending so quickly! D: For once I'm a normal student, not wanting school to start and not wanting the last weekend to end :\

Oh darling, don't you ever grow up

Don't you ever grow up, just stay this little

Oh darling, don't you ever grow up

Don't you ever grow up, it could stay this simple

No one's ever burned you, nothing's ever left you scarred

And even though you want to, just try to never grow up

They say every young child's wish is to grow up, but I don't want to grow up. It could stay this simple :( Forever young, I wanna be, forever young. heh anyway, holidays are ending so quickly. Although I seriously have NO LIFE now, and part of me look forward to Secondary One where I can be occupied with things to do. Yet again,what if I get too busy making new friends or doing homework ._. And I still remember this year in detail as if it happened YESTERDAY. Including 31st December when I was talking to my friends, and wished them Happy New Year Dx and now we are starting a new year? Time is passing real fast ,_, okay now Rachael and Milton is fighting over who showed us the video UP in P4. And they are making me feel oldddd cos I don't remember a thing. and making me remember the innocence of P4 ): HMPH *clears mind of such things*

Anyway :DDD I am going National Library YAY my mum wanna go so I decided to go with her :D yay I have SOME life today~ ._. well, anyway I realised I dont have much to post about , so bye ._ .

It's driving me mad, I miss you so bad. And my heart heart is so jetlagged D:

I am seriously envious of Primary Five BiCEP GEP 2011 </3 They've got a whole new year in Tao Nan School next year.. and they get to see their friends which they had for 2 years... Whereas we have to leave our friends for a whole new world D: Luckily I still have'got bicep'2010 to consult /: but their experiences aren't very good either -.- Oh and especially when you are in bicep or gep, you get to be with your awesome friends for 3 whole years, cos of the programme, but after 3 years, your bond is just soooo close you CANT, just CANT, leave each other -_- And I heard they painted Tao Nan :/ into like dark blue in colour. and I havent seen it yet. bleh I dont think its gonna be nice :O I shall go and see ._. And now Juniors are asking me to go back to TNS to visit them, and go to scoop of art with them. Yea. after I die from the 1st week, I will come visit you-.- Anyway I don't know if I can go back during the first week, cos there is orientation camp. I will try to go back during the 2nd week. Have to avoid Mr Chua, cos he hates me :P Looking forward to going back to TNS -.- I will be a mentally retard when I go back there :DD omg I will be so happy :P Okay, this post is actually about like being sad AGAIN :/ and of course visiting tao nan ^^ So lets say I visit tao nan every 2 months like Michael, so I gotta spend like $0.66 months a month. meh worth it. I could save like 6 cents if I take a non aircon bus :DD okay what shit am I talking -.- SOYES. And if I study with rachael and the rest, .... wait, why am I talking aboout money LOL I'd actually pay any transport to meet them ._. So lets say we seriously study for a few hours ><, then we would wanna go to the arcade right? but it DEPENDS, if we've got time. And like my seniors try to organize a small gathering with their bicepians, and one of them are not free everyday. and im like :'( , so whats gonna happen. Ok anyway Im done with this sadness post gonna end it off with lyrics ^^

You see, I haven't been the same since that cold November Day. But all we found was an empty place, and the only thing I learned, is that I need you desperately. Where do broken hearts go, can they fidn their way home. back to the open arms, of a love that's waiting there. And if somebody loves you. Won't they always love you.

I skipped a line cos it didn't fit, the rest, kinda....

I hope we keep all the good memories close to our heart.

I dont think its cool actually, hah, but since it's over, I guess I get to be proud of it? Anyway, we were sharing stuff we did in Primary School on Facebook. Zai kia.

Valery Tay

1) Got told to stand at the wall, and the teacher said, "Want to talk right? Talk to the wall lah!" So I said Hi to the wall, and then I got thrown out.
2) Got thrown out everyother day during P4/5/6 Science Lessons, because I was a nuisance in class, didn't do corrections, didn't do homework, or playing games in class.
3) Almost got stripped of my Monitor badge in P4 #likeaboss
4) Pissed EVERY teacher of once when I sat with my best friends, and we talked NON-STOP, and played games.
5) Slept in Civics and Morals, and also in front of the teacher's face.
6) Scared a teacher out of her wits, just to tell her I love her, and she was the best, she almost killed me.
7) Running around the classroom in the teacher's FACE, playing catching with a Highlighter.
8) Stuffing a huge pieces of biscuit in my mouth during Lesson times
9) Rolled my eyes in front of a teacher every other day just to tell them they are talking shit.
10) Took a 15 minute break during the 5 minutes break to buy snacks, and displayed the snacks on my table.
11) Played handphone games in class.
12) Spent Half An Hour in the toilet, playing games and talking shit.
13) Never had a Chinese file in P4, always handed up an empty chinese file during file check

OK anyway, I am not THAT BAD a student... Just hear the rest.

Justin Zheng

1) Called a teacher A MORON in her face.
2) Skipped lessons everyother day
3) Steal things from the PE Room
4) Thrown out almsot everyday
5) Don't do homework almost everyother day, and fail spelling
6) Slept in class.
7) Said the F word in front of Liang Lao Shi, but don't away, cos she didn't hear.

Michael Ong

1) Got told to stand on another floor by his Chinese Teacher, and he went to another class in that floor and sat at the back. After class, the teacher had to go around finding for him
2) Never had a chinese file, so Mr Kew had to stay him back from 8am-5pm JUST to do the file, and he lost it at last. Some other teacher found it, and returned it back to him. Then he handed it up to his MATH teacher.
3) Fly paper planes in class, then the teacher said if he wanted to fly paper planes, he had to fold 1000 planes. He folded 300.
4) FAILED PSLE HCL -.- (goshh every chinese teacher must hate him)
5) IS proud of it -.-

Long live our pie-kia-ness? D:

Nah actually Im not very proud of it :P But since they wanted to know. I swear I will try to behave in Secondary School. Im serious. Im quite sick of all teachers hating me. But its really quite hard for us, people who have been like that since P1/2 ._. hahaha but I guess I could manage :)

what we could have been, 19:06.

Sorry for not posting in a long while, been busy this few days.

Tuesday:

Once I reached home, I kinda facebooked and did other stuff till I fell asleep x: I shall post about yesterday+today then. Yesterday, I spent the whole day at United Square / Goldhill. Well, it's a place I know like the back of my hand, since I had had tuition there for 4 years and counting... Basically, I know where's all the shops there, so I can roam by myself at that mall. The leraning mall /: heh. Anyway, At 1pm, I went for Math tuition at neuro math, it's kinda a workshop for 4 days to learn about Secondary 1 math homework. We learnt about Sec 1 Algebra. It was quite manageable. I went for this course with my childhood friend Yixi :P His mother asked me if I wanted to join, I thought okay. After class, Yixi and I went to 7-Eleven because he wanted to buy some thing using his Ez-link card. He spent 10 minutes choosing what to buy, and I must say, I almost stabbed him. At last, I bought skittles, and he bought a Milk Tea and chocolate. It cost $4+ -.- And he only had $8 in his ez-link before. Then, he went off to the bus stop and I went to United Square. It was about 3.15pm already.

I was meeting Jieyi at 4pm, thus I had 45 minutes to myself. I decided to go to Popular with the $10 my mother gave me. She told me to go to Popular to get my stationaries myself >< By the way, the popular at United Square is pretty small, and useless. I got a few pens there, but they didn't sell 0.38 black (as usual). So I made a trip up to the office building where my LL class was (Barcelona), placed my stuff then trotted ALL THE WAY down to the basement to the Wei Ling's stationary shop, to buy that ONE pen I was lacking :3 By the time I returned to Barcelona, It was 3.50pm. 10 minutes more till Jieyi arrives.. So I sat outside Barcelona and waited for Jieyi. I was looking around for Ruth cos I thought that her class (P5) was the one before mine, but it ended up as RC class :(

4pm. Jieyi arrived and we met at Barcelona. Following we went to the Food Junction to eat Pepper lunch! Followed by Made In Candy. Then went to class )': Class was fun! <3 Whenever mrs Tan left the class, Nick, Milton, Jieyi and I just kept talking about rubbish and sick stuff. And also play iPod/iPhones in class ._. Sorry we disturb the whole class and usually we end up finishing our work but they dont -.- Its partially our fault, I feel so bad :P Not.

When I came home, I was on facebook for hours? -.- Commenting about Rubbish and vulgar stuff with Justin, Jennifer, Ruth and some other weird random Juniors I dont know =.=

Wednesday:

After Math Tuition, I came straight home, no back to back lessons :D, heh. We learnt harder algebra, so I went home quite -_-"""", but it's quite fun :P

Today

More Algebra. Longer face -__-"""", heh, but yeah class's kinda fun :P After lesson, Yixi and I went to gongcha, I bought Milk Tea with Herbal Jelly and he bought Passionfruit Green Tea. Then I went to 7-Eleven to buy M&Ms because my teacher was eating M&M in class, and made me crave for it -_- It cost $2.50. Disgustingly spent about $5+ to make myself fatter ._. what happened to my diet HAHA.

Oh and I think I should share with you some of the things we commented on Facebook xD Primary School memories, kinda.

Japan Trip 2011 :)

Just touched down at 12+ (:

Day 1:

I reached the airport at about 11pm, and took a late night flight to Nagoya and reached at about 8am (Japan time). Upon arrival we waited in the airport and changed into our winter wear. After the tour leader, Lye Heng made sure everyone was ready, we boarded the coach and took a 3 hour ride to a place for lunch. It was a place where they have Japanese bbq lunch xD My mother, my brother, Trevor and I are failed barbecue-rs xD, we burnt a lot of food, and ended up having a sad lunch :P It wasn't a satisfying lunch, but at least it was fun! xD After an hour or two of bus rides again, we reached Osaka Castle. It was pretty 'un-castle-ish', but it was nice :P My camera died somewhere there I think >< My brother's camera too, probably because we didnt charge before we came. It was already full before we came D: That left with my mum's camera :P Her camera was pretty old, that's why it was always up to her 2 kids to take photographs with their good cameras, but ours died xD My brother and I took pictures with our iphones instead for the rest of the day. But my brother's iphone's mega pixes is really high, whereas mine is low ):

Failed BBQ-ing #1, #2, #3

Anyway, dinner that day was at a kind of restaurant, with steamboat-ish kind of food :P This wasn't that fail, since we didnt have to cook our selves or anything, just take the food and warm it up. My mother also bought Kobe Beef for us to eat, it cost about $80 for one kg o_o It was quite nice ^^ Considering a non-beef-lover like me.

Then we finally went back to the hotel! I was looking forward to this because I was pretty damn tired. Whole night not much sleep, because I was in the plane. And the entertainment system is pretty darn entertaining with movies and comedies, and songs. Plus, a book I brought to read. I was re-watching Mr Poppers Penguins since it was hilarious the time I watched it in the theatres. But at last I fell asleep while watching it on the plane -,- heh. So I got about 3 hours of sleep? (Hey, that is not bad). But after going out for the whole day, walking, sightseeing, it was great to be back in the hotel.

Day 2:

I think we went to visit a place with a lot of deers! o.o The deers are free to roam around the place. But the deers are pretty scary, so I didn't buy the deer food to feed them, they are crazy about food. The DJ, Li Mei, bought me a cone of ice-cream (Yes-,- eating ice cream in 6 degree celsuis). The chocolate was very rich and delicious. She bought them for most of the children in the tour group, one of the boys, (8 yr old?) accidentally dropped the ice cream cone o:<, and the deers went to attack it. Nice sight xD, Snapped a picture of it.

Deers eating Ice cream. Thats $7 gone? ><

We left that place for lunch. Lunch was meat, vegetables (to put in the hotpot thing), Raw egg and Miso Soup :P. Itadakimasu o.o haha xD, It was okay, I guess :D.

Lunch :p

Followed by visiting some temples and shrines which was not THAT interesting. More of understanding people's culture & practices. My mother said although I'm Christian I should learn cos that's what we visit these shrines for Dx, okay ><

One of the many Shrines & Temples

Subsequently we went to Mikimoto Pearl Island, where they make pearls and stuff xD, lol it was quite cool :P, and we also saw those ladies going into the icy cold water to collect clams. It was winter, so I couldn't imagine how cold the sea water would have been. Dinner was at the hotel that day, buffet. At night, we boarded a stationary boat to make our own pearl thing. They had us choose a clam, and opened the clam ourselves and took the Pearl out. It was slimy and gooey, heh, with a little fishy smell to top it off .-. At last, I had my very own hand-made pearl handphone chain sort of thing :P I don't really put those stuff on my phone, but well, it's cool ;)


There, I found a clam in less than 3 minutes.

Day 4:

Went to the THEME PARK near Nagoya (: Yay, theme park! :) There was a super scary ride called Steel Dragon 2000. It was famous to be one of the scariest rides, and is indeed the scariest in the whole entire Theme park. Li Mei was gathering people to take the ride with her, and my brother decided to go with her together with some other people! xD OMG :D It was only 3 minutes, but it sure seems like 3 hours for the person riding it! xD After my brother survived the ride, we went on to play other rides.

I dare you sit on that xD

I rode on a ride called Wild Mickey with my mother. It was a thrilling ride, designed in a way that the kart you are sitting on seems to be dettached and you are going to fall down any moment :DD There were also some drops :D My mum, bro and I also went to sit on some Ferries Wheel for leisure. Since all we have in singapore is the Singapore Flyer, whereas this is the one in the Amusement Park. It was still pretty slow, but more fun :D We saw the whole entire amusement park from up there xD, I liked it. Afterwards, I was left with no more tickets, but my bro had 1 extra ticket. So my mother and bro sat another ride together. They sat in cars and the cars just kept spinning and spinning, it seemed like a simple and harmless ride but it sure isn't!

I love this picture very much. The ferris wheel looks really clear in this angle, and the time, 11:11, can be seen clearly <3

Wild Mouse <3


STEEL DRAGON 2000

Zoomed in the furthest my camera could go.
My bros in there xD #likeaboss

Then we decided we were hungry & decided to go for some food and the Outlet mall about 5 minutes walk away. It was drizzling. We settled for a simple Japanese Restaurant because we were SOO hungry D: When we were footing the bill, the woman at the cashier was trying to say something, but due to Language barrier, we never knew what she was trying to say -.- She was like ONE, ONE, ONE, while we stared blankly. At last we left the restaurant after paying about $50-60. That is very cheap in Japan, so we figured that the person must have calculated wrongly or something o.o, so at last, we payed lesser! xD After lunch, we went back to the amusement park, and sat on a Skyliner. 3 of us squeezed into the small carriage like thing, and it brought us around 1 round. We got ready to leave because the meeting time was 3pm, but since there was still excess time, my brother decided to go Go-karting. My mother didn't go because it was on the track, and she felt that it was pretty boring, for me, I generally disliked Go-karting because whenever I go go-karting or Luge, my kart goes out of control.

After go-karting, we left the amusement park for Osasis 21. It is a shopping centre, before checking-in into a hotel. That day, dinner was not provided, which meant we had to go for dinnner ourselves. However, the Tour Guide recommended us to go to a shop selling signature Chicken Wings. All of us flocked there. More than half of the small restaurant was filled with people from my tour group. Gave the restaurant pretty much a lot of business. The chicken wing tasted rather good, but my brother didn't like it. Well, different people have different perspectives, and that includes food-tasting as well. We then walked around the area, shopping at a mall, and departmental stores. Finally, we returned to the Hotel xD My brother and I played Maple Cynus in hotel with our iphones because it was boring in the hotel. I read my book as well, before turning in for the night.

Day 5:

TEMPERATURE DROPPED A WHOLE LOT! It became MINUS 5 degrees to Minus 10 degrees >< And it snowed! xD I haven't really seen snow before, so I was pretty elated xP It wasn't supposed to snow in early december, but ohwell, it did o_o Bonus ^^ Well, the snow stopped and we were able to ride on the horses. Apparently, the horse was special, it was fatter & its legs were very short for a horse. The tour guide said, just like Japanese :p Haha. I was most facinated with the snow than the horse. Chan Jing didn't dare to ride the horse, probably because the horse is dirty and smelly xD Thats the Chan Jing I know, cleaaan ;) It was freezing ><, so after the horse ride, I immediately ran indoors in the stable.

Three of us on the horses :)

After everyone has got their turn on the horses, we left for a Soba musuem :D We had to MAKE our own Soba :( An old lady, who is appparently a great soba maker, taught us how to make it. My Brother, mother and I took turns to do the steps. In the end, the soba was pretty good. It sure tasted of hard work -_-

Gor and I making the soba <3

After soba lunch, we went to a old part of the place. We were supposed to use the Map they provided us with, to walk around in the freezing minus degree celsuis, and look for shops to exchange coupons and buy stuff from. It wasnt that good, since I was practically freezing to death. Oh well :P For dinner, it was at the hotel again, but it was pretty good! :D We were told to wear Kimonos, a Japanese wear that they wear before they go to the hot spring (:


Gor and I before dinner dressed in Kimonos <3


Gor and I eating noodles :D

That day, we slept on Tatamis, super comfortable and awesome even though it was on the floor (: Nice enriching experience of Japanese Culture.

Day 6:

Mount FUJI day! xD We could only go to Station 1 but we could still see the Mountain clearly! At this season, it was really Rare to be able to see the Mountain at all :) Blessed <3

Breathtaking scenery

Mount Fuji was really great, the scenery was picturesque. It was worth the waking up early, and everything><

My mum, gor and I with Mount Fuji

Afterwards, we went to a place where the melted snow from Mount Fuji flowed. The water was really cold, and they challenged each of the visitors to be able to withstand the coldness for 30 seconds. I could leave my hand in there for more than 30sec though. Following, we went to a Ramen Musuem. The Tour Guide mentioned that we had to try a bowl of Ramen. We ordered 2 bowls of ramen to share it among 3 of us :)

Ignore the Dinosaur Land bowl please

For dinner, we went on a CRUISE! :) For the Chan Brother D&D dinner. It was an awesome spread of food, followed by fun and games and Lucky draws. They also prepared 2 birthday cakes for the birthday girl and boy in the tour! They are Chan Jing :) , and another boy from my tour (: They both turn 12 on their birthdays. Jing's birthday is on 18th December, whereas the boy's on 22nd. The dinner cruise was really fun and exciting, with a lot of cool games! We even had this superman game, where the wife had to stuff newspapers in her's husbands clothes to make him look buff, like superman. It was taunting xD, and funny. Chan Jing's parents took part. But Chan Jing's sister, Chan Ning, 8 years old didn't want her father to do those things because they made her father stuff newspapers and even wear a red coloured underwear on the outside. So she cried D: Chan jing's father then decided to stop playing because his daughter was so upset. She's so cute, showed her love for her father :) <3

Day 7: Free day

We took a train from our Hotel's Train station to many places. One of the places we went was the Statue of Liberty in Tokyo. There are only 3 statues in the world, the largest one being obviously in America, New York.

Mum and Gor (:

We slept for about 5 hours, before awaking at 2.30am for the flight back to Singapore. I couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness when I left Japan. I made many new acquaintances who became friends, the Tour Guide, Michelle, Tour Leader, Lye Heng, Tour Guide for Bus 2, Don, Tour Leader for Bus 2, Casey. And of course the youngest of all, Eugene who is 2 years old. Unresistable Cuteness :) When you grow up, I will probably be 20+ already>< Well, thats; the way it goes.


This is you in your baby sized Kimono. I like your innocent look. Eugene

During trips like these, I spend more time with my mother and brother. Especially gor, whom I hardly talk to during normal school days. We are usually so busy with our school homework that we don't talk much. These past 7 days have been very enjoyable :)

Japan, I'd miss you, cos now it;s back to Singapore, reality.

So don't you worry pretty little mind. People throw rocks at things that shine, and life makes love look hard. The stakes are high, the waters rough, but this loves ours.

what we could have been, 22:00.
