yo yo yo... I'm back from Japan... i was much of an ordeal as well as great fun. Not only did I learn many things required of from work but also experience the pain of leaving my family for a business trip the very first time.
this blog will be a lot of words from the depths of my heart & also a photolog... be patient as you read thru the 5 days of aches & fun...
"I'm leaving on a jet plane... and will be back only on saturday..."
Goodness me, like so ke lian lor, felt aches as "I " flew up into the skies... we took and SQ flight... but 7 hours was deep shit, i tell you... it was really boring... although you have your own tv, but i spend quite a bit of time sleeping...
We reached Narita at almost 6pm, waited to clear customs for almost 1/2 hour... Tired ne... Took the train to our hotel at Maebashi... Really tiring... Reached the hotel like almost 10pm liao...

the next day (12 Oct) was at maebashi, learning testing.. sorry, confidential stuff can't really say it on my blog... hehehe... maybe competitors are reading my blog ("like real") ... So colleagues at co. brought us out for lunch at some food outlet, which my boss say it is something like our hawker center in SG... I had curry rice, damn, not spicy at all... Sianzzz... Dinner was with our big big boss at a japanese seafood restaurant.. the food was really great, there was this dish : vinegar with seaweed. Oh jeez, damn delicious lor... Had some drinks (beer, wine, sake & tea), the sake was really powerful, half cup, i feel a bit dizzy liao... maybe i had wine and beer too.. I realised that girls who know how to drink is not a good thing, cos ppl will just keep pushing you to take more booze..
13 Oct, was at testing at Kawasaki & tokyo tower... from maebashi, we drove to Tokyo. It took us almost 2 hours to reach Kawasaki. it was almost noon already... so tired, i was sleep half of the time... ppl who came along must be thinking: this SG girl is a pig, keep on sleeping... hahaha... no choice, so boring... tokyo tower is really cool...

on the way back to Maebashi, we passed by Tokyo Dome... how i wished to see a SMAP concert there... it would be great fun... Dinner was italian food, the temperature dropped to a low of 15 degrees... I was freezing and all of whom who went to dinner had the decency to say it is "atsuii" (meaning warm)... you got a bit screwed in the brain or not... come to Sg, and i tell you what is hot...
last day of work in Maebashi was almost fun... the division members had a farewell dinner for us and a ktv session (well, they got to know from my big big boss, that i like ktv).. I tried my best to reject singing sessions by asking if they have chinese hip hop... siao lor, they don't have hiphop, but they had F4 & zaizai on the playlist... During dinner, everybody had some booze... I kept running for the toilet, so as to keep myself awake... they knew i could take a bit of booze, as if to make me drunk, kept topping up my glass... siao liao, felt obligations to keep the spirit high lar... so "eng siew" lor... drink to them.. kanna "ka you" also like that lor...
15 oct, last day in Japan... finally can go home liao... was trying to meet Elaine (my cousin) but can't get our time together, so didn't meet... my boss brought me to harajuku & shibuya for shopping...

on the train to "shibuya"
the famous "shibuya 109".. shopping haven for teens
after 3 to 4 hours of shopping, we make our way to the airport... yeah, going home liao... i missed home... i missed ah-ma's snoring... hotel rooms are so cold... i hate them... i love my cosy room... i like my small bed... finally reached Changi airport at 2am... i'm so exhausted...
i had great fun, learn a great deal... certainly would want to go on another trip, but "kill the buay ya-s"... :P
