i guess i won't be going through the details in here, it would seriously take forever. each day would be the length of the posts i make, so multiply by 17, i won't be able to finish writing them either lol. so ya this post would be a summary of the stuff we did there. a long one i think lol.
we started off at kyoto, at first just me, jm and wong, all hyped up about the trip. we had our first onigiri in the train station after getting off the airport, and woa we had so much feels, and it made us all high and happy. then after that we roamed around kyoto, which was somewhat familiar, yet the experience of walking there alone without teachers or parents or anyone to guide us was somewhat interesting. met up with the rest at the end of the day after exploring shijo and gion by ourselves, and for the first few days, we probably were the number one public nuisance in japan lol.
in kyoto, we met up with our buddies for a dinner, heard some kinda -ahem- interesting stuff, then went to the arcade and took some super embarassing purikara (the machines that take those photos). yea the rest will kill me if i upload it anywhere haha.
after leaving kyoto, we went to osaka, and for this first half of the trip, everyday was pretty hiong. we woke up early, took bullet trains to other districts, and return back to the hotel quite late every night.
our first half of the trip was mainly sightseeing, taking all sorts of retarded photos, falling behind the itenerary and ended up cancelling many things. and there was lots of failing, arguing, teasing each other (lots of new jokes appear cos of the plenty of fails that happened),
just to give an idea on what the days were like: on the last day in osaka, we went to hiroshima, which was all the way west (1.5hrs bullet train from osaka), saw deer, get attacked by deer, met a tsun-deer, went to a famous place to get lunch which ended up being closed, ate good food anyway, ate oysters (1kg for 1000 yen) for dinner, ended up missing the second last bullet train that we thought was the last and gave us a fright of our lives, reached back hotel at 12 am. ok that was a pretty extreme day haha, and wtf, so much yolo a day i was worried we would not survive the trip lol.
for the next half of our trip, we left for tokyo, and this was where our trip changed from sightseeing to almost purely shopping, and actually more like waiting for others to finish shopping lol. and yea there was something really unhygienic about those oysters we ate in hiroshima that for the first 3 days of tokyo, each one of us got owned by either vomitting or diarhea, or both lol.
during that time it was kinda sian, or more like really sian, cos those who felt well enough to go out got tired really quickly, we had to take all sorts of toilet breaks, food suddenly became not appetizing, and alot of time got wasted. for me i din't exactly miss out much, though the day i went down i vomitted 4-5 times, those really painful ones where nothing came out. such that the next day when i laughed my diaphragm felt painful haha. but yea when we all finally recovered, all the jokes and teasing came back double, and we were also doubly high and stuff. in some sense, it was quite an experience lol.
we resumed our itenerary, but turns out that no matter which city in tokyo we go, we barely did anything else but look for more anime stuff to buy lol. we went to like akiba 3 to 4 times until we actually got sian of it. and we also blew alot of money haha. jm and zhengwei blew on gundams and other huge stuff, while pin and jookee kinda spammed albums, even though they had the songs. i din't really buy much, cos i cleared most of my stuff before reaching tokyo, but even still i succumb to seemingly cheap temptations, like 400 yen figmas, 100 yen mangas, 2000+ yen nendos.
i guess the day with the most sightseeing in tokyo was odaiba, which was essentially the last day for the three going back one day earlier. it was this really cool island where everything seemed new and nicely arranged, and there din't seem to be any old streets or temple-ish kind of places. it's like academy city in railgun haha, though a better way to describe it is probably shin-japan haha. we din't exactly do much there, but it was really pretty, we did a bit of railgun pilgrimage, played at an arcade which jookee won some gigantic alpaca, went to see a gigantic gundam.
then at the end of the day, we had some pretty ingenious christmas celebration, cos jookee seemed kinda disappointed we din't have any christmas mood at all. so yea we had a christmas tree made out of onigiri, cake, some wine that zhengwei bought, and 50 pieces of karaage. cos we were suicidal and all. after eating like half the pack, i felt like never eating fried chicken again lol. but it was actually quite a fun christmas celebration after all. much crazy and high. among all the other supper celebrations that we occasionally had haha.
all in all, it was pretty damn fudged up, but fun, sometimes troublesome, sometimes unexpectedly crazy. quite a cool grad trip i've had haha. i definitely have much more to tell, but that's probably going to be done in person heheh. k la that's all for now. see u guys soon :D
