Finally, had a getaway, an escape out of this town.
C = Christopher
Dinner with C at Bugis before heading over to airport. Met parents and granny over at the airport straight. Checked in, and hang around with le clique before entering gate. Took group photos and it's really embarrassing when our stupid teacher-in-charge start to lecture us in the airport. She actually lectured us in front of all the parents or people who are sending us off, and she didn't even spare a thought of us or even for the image of the school. Ohgodz.
Entered the gate, and ready to board the plane. Was lucky to get the first row, which means, more space! We aren't taking those budget airlines, we took Singapore Airlines (SQ) Been ages since I last took SQ, or maybe I didn't get to take one. Watched 古惑仔 on plane and I swear it's super exciting! Tried to sleep on plane, but the curtain keeps getting out of the way and get on my leg. But if I don't get some sleep, I will prolly die the next day, because the flight is at 1am, and will reach Japan around 6am?
Touched down, board the bus, and started our tour. AND I SWEAR TOURING WITHOUT ENOUGH SLEEP IS NOT FUNNY, IT'S A KILLER! Cause other than the time you're on bus travelling, you'll be walking around.
Day 2 (3rd Oct 2013),
Had lunch at a local restaurant where we can DIY our okonomiyaki. I don't know it's because of my appetite or what, but I don't find the okonomiyaki I made nice. AHAHAHA. After lunch, head over to Osaka City Abeno Life Safety Learning Centre. It's rather an interesting educational center, cause it teaches you how to escape from fire site, how to distinguish fires, and get some earthquake knowledge, we even know get to experience how is it like when an earthquake attack Japan.
After Life Safety Learning Centre, we headed over to Osaka City Sewerage Science Museum. Nothing much to talk about this museum, cause it's pretty boring. AHAHAH. I even fell asleep while we are in their theater watching their video, cause it's way too sleepy and tired!
Then we headed to AEON Takami for shopping! Didn't really shop for clothing, but I've gotten myself two cute Hello Kitty diary at a dirt cheap price. Whoop! Accompanied my buddy, Afifi, to shop for his clothes. And I swear, some male clothes are dirt cheap as well. Seeing how my buddy buy, really makes me feel like buying some back to give away. But I've no one to give it to. AHAHAHA.
After which, we headed down to Hotel Hanshin for check in and dinner there. After dinnering, walked around our hotel area with my "huhu" buddies (Afifi, Jordy, Tingjun) Walked for around 15mins (cause there's nothing much around our area), we headed back to hotel and I slacked in A and J's room till 2am or maybe 3am?
Day 3 (4th Oct 2013),
Have to wake up at freaking 6.30am (5.30am in Singapore) for breakfast. Visit Panasonic ECO Technology Center, and I swear, I'm in zombie mode when I'm there. I can really fell asleep while standing, or walking. Because me, being way too clever, slept at 5am (4am in Spore)
Had lunch in a local restaurant, some hotpot. Didn't had 1/2 of the set, because I'm still too full from my breakfast. Then we went to The Momofuku Ando Instant Ramen Museum and DIY our own maggie mee. It's my all time favorite Nissin Cup noodles. "Gave birth" to our own maggie mee with my roomie, Judy.
Then we headed back to city and head our dinner at the nearby restaurant, had some ramen, and some fried delicacies. Since after dinner, it's free time, my two "huhu" khaki decided to go for some shopping session at their "orchard road" Bought my jeans and I'm considered broke. Headed back to hotel, and after washing up, slacked at A&J's room again.
*I even got prank call from that stupid group of boys with my "room service" for 6 bowls of ramen (inside joke)
