...

ok..really sorry for not updating...and thanks for all the great birthday wishes..it really means a lot =D

anyway...yesterday guess what??..i saw kenny sia yes..infamous blogger of kennysia.com.. unfortunately didn't get a picture of him...darn..

ahhh..anyway just came back from lunch...i can't believe it's sunday already..why must there be school tomorrow??!!!

hahaha...

this is a twilight parody..

SNOW!!!!!

ok..i'm in seoul right now and....it's snowing!!!!..woooo!!!!...anyway..just came back from dinner with my dad's korean friend and his daughter who speaks really good english =)..pretty much slept the whole day cause couldn't sleep much during the midnight flight..so nothing much to add...

the snows been going on for almost 30 minutes now and the whole scenery's already covered in a centimeter of snow...this is the first time i've seen snow fall...it's much more enjoyable than looking at snow that's already fallen on the ground...i must say though..snow fall looks a lot like falling dandruff...only bigger..and it melts

heh..anyway..gonna end here...i smell like beef.. =P

Back from Tokyo!

ok...after many days of running around markets, train stations and using strange forms of english to communicate i'm finally back from tokyo...altogether me, my dad and my sis took more than 900 pictures, ate food, memorised the subway routes, ate more food, went grocery shopping, ate more food, visited shrines, ate more food, walked around their beautiful parks, ate MORE food, and ate food...yea you get it

5/12/08
the day of our flight to tokyo.. ok..here's the thing...if you know me...you'll know that i hate flying.. i absolutely loathe it...the turbulence, the air pressure pressing against my ears, the take offs, the landings, and most of all...THE FOOD..yea

anyway...we had an hour plus flight to Kota Kinabalu for our transit flight where we had to wait an hour for our six hour flight to NaritaKK airport

after arriving we checked into Elite-inn in Yushima, Tokyo

after checking in and getting settled down we went for our first dinner at a nearby soba place where we had tamago-yaki, sashimi, sushi and cold soba..yummm...

after dinner, went back to the apartment for a good nights sleep

6/12/08
next morning woke up, had breakfast and got on the subway to the outer tsukiji market (not the inner fish market)..don't expect lots of pictures of market stuff cause a lot of the sellers there don't allow photos to be taken of the stuff they're selling...evil..only managed to get this one blurred shot

anyway had lunch at sushi-zanmai...one of many restaurants of the same chain scattered around the market...food was really fresh i got the salmon donburi with ikura and salmon sashimi while my parents and sis had a chirashi-donafter that...we took the sub home and attended the christmas party the apartment manager was holding..the food the served was really good...roast beef, crackers, parma ham, fresh fruits and pizza...they even entertained with piano and clarinet performances by one really geng clarinet player...

after the party...we went out to explore the technology street that is akihabara...the sad part about akihabara is that all export versions meaning ones that use english or can be used outside japan are super expensive...way more expensive than over here...(so we didn't buy anything)...but all their local versions are dirt cheap..a nintendo wii japan version currently goes for RM900 in japan and includes wii sports/fit...the export version goes for about RM2000..yea..see what i mean

anyway...in akiba there's one thing you can't miss...large complexes floors above floors, rows upon rows of UFO catchers..if you don't know what that is this is one.

anyway...my sister decided to try her luck and guess what??!! we actually won something..hahahaha

that's the end of day 2 =D

will continue the rest of the trip tomorrow..

Weekend in...the land where the sun rises so early it wakes you up at 5 in the morning..

ok...that was my longest title ever...haha...

went to a few places already so far...ginza, asakusa, tsukiji fish market and we went to a christmas party yesterday that was being held at the ground floor of our apartment block

i'm lazy to add pictures and go into details...but i'll try to get to it once i'm back in malaysia

sayonara!

Greetings from Tokyo!

ok...it's exactly 12 in the morning in tokyo...but still 11 in malaysia

we started off the day at 6.30 in the morning...got to the airport...had a 1 hour flight to Kota Kinabalu...i hate flying by the way...waited for transit for an 1 hour plus..got on a 6 hour plus flight to Narita (did i say i hate flying?) and now we're here...

took us about an hour to get from narita to tokyo and on the way spotted some really nice fireworks...dad said it was a sign of welcome for us...meh...after that we checked into a really clean service apartment...WITH A PIANO!!!!!...hahaha..ahhh

went for dinner at some small nearby restaurant where no one understood what we were trying to say..but guess what?? we still managed to order good food...then went to a convenience store and started buying more stuff to eat!!!..hahah

1st day only and i'm already stuffed..=\

p.s.:i'll post pictures when i get home...now no time..leceh la

Bloody hell

forgot to mention...few days ago had a blood test done cause i've always wanted to find out my blood group...my maid and i were talking about it before the actual test

marie/wen

i'm B...i hope you're B

-_-'...then that would mean i'm adopted

*shrugs*

yea...we talk like that...haha..anyway..the guy came at 8 in the morning which meant i had to wake up..ugh

anyway...me, my sister, brother and sister-in-law decided to do the test... they were all taking the more complex ones which meant testing for cholestrol and cancer markers and stuff like that..

me on the other hand only had to do a little prick for blood grouping

my brother went first...guy took 3ml of blood red...well...blood ...then left

then my sister went..guy took another 3ml

then it was my turn..*the guy started laughing when he found out me and my sis's names were wenwen and weiwei...stupid guy*..anyway he started prodding around the crease at my elbow trying to get a good enough vein..then the alcohol rub and poke...

for my first blood draw i have to say it wasn't as painful as i thought it would have been =)

anyway..in my drowsy state i didn't realize that not only was i not supposed to have my blood drawn from the elbow...he also took more than needed!!!!..so gonna sue him

anyway..after the test went to mcdonalds for breakfast..haha...stay healthy for blood test eat fat filled food after =D

i'm A+..haha..like mom

which means i shouldn't consume large amounts of meat like O-blooded dad can..instead i have to eat large amounts of vegetables..-_-
