May 31 IT show 200705Today I went IT show! Think its the first time I go to a IT show! ha... or maybe its e first time I go with a purpose (to get a lappie).=p
I reach at 1pm along with my brother. Really super duper packed and I thought I go 1 hr after it open then it shldnt be too packed. hahah so squeeze loh. already there liao so just walk and see lo. hahah the first boooth that I see is the Sony booth. sigh... VAIO... C25 Pink was the one I was eyeing. cuz erm.... its pink! hahah quite a bimbotic reason nm... then the price is not attractive enough cuz its e same as wat i saw at best denki but it did give ms office away free. So I proceed to Fujitsu counter to see A6020 or A6030. Then A6030 not there yet only A6020. The screen is really look much bigger than the Sony VAIO wan then I think that I like to watch shows on my lappie so was tempted to get A6020. Ha! As A6030's specs looks the same as A6020 so I asked the salesperson whats the diff so he just read e specs to me. =S oh well... since i more ex by 200 so I decide to not consider A6030. ha After looking at this 2, I sat outside to tink abt which one to get =p my fren was smsing me wats e diff so i told her " sony has half e ram, 2/3 the disk space and a smaller LCD" for the same price! after i send that sms, I realise that i wouldbe a true bimbo if i buy e sony vaio. Ha! So I got the Fujitsu A6020 =p
Then today was exciting for another reason too... I kop the van from my father to go n drive to n ard town! Ha! I have nvr really driven in heavy traffic before so since today is public hol plus IT show so I decide to try =p hahah Quite... challenging cuz first i hav to drop 1 brother at sim lim square then proceed to suntec. haha then is my first time driving there so erm not very clear abt e lanes so i keep switching to left lane back to middle then back toleft. lol... tink a lot of cars curse me. or mayb they will just 4give m after seeing my P plate. *hopeful* when i reach suntec, carparks all full -_-" so i went to park at esplanade which cost a freaking $6 for 3 hrs! sigh... Then from esplanade i drove to orchard. =p erm so gotta read map again.ha! I know its like e town area n its a very easy drive but ... i still like to read e map before going. ha! parked at hotel phoenix. lol shop a while then realise that e sales person forgot to give me e MS office which I purchased so had dinner w my frenz then drove back to Suntec. This time suntec got parking space le! I drove into the loading n unloading bay which hava ht limitof 3.7 m so I just happily look for parking space without looking to e ceiling then eeeeeee! ha! I scraped past a 1.8 m height limit ceiling. =p lol so bo bian reversed outof e space loh =p ha! erm it caused a dent in e front ceiling of e van. lol... confessed to dad who... seems ok abt it. think he's resigned to e fact that his daughter likes to drive but tend to do damage to e car lol...
n tat abt summarises up my day =) quite a fruitful day. May 24 Japan's trip 200705Hokkaido is very beautiful!! hahah tink in winter it will be more beautiful bah... lol there got so many colours of flowers!! dunno why spore is call garden city when here only got trees. hahah tink there more deserving of the term. Then i got to see sakura! hhaha then its like... ppl's backyard have sakura can!~! hahahha so shiok hor? they just need to look out e window to see sakura then here we are have to fly like 10 hrs to see =p then i went to tis mountain which is mainly for ski-ing in winter wan then there still 1 m of snow there... amazing... but its not cold so weird =)
The onsen (hot spring) is shiok. Have to strip off all clothes. then the bathing area is sit on a stool in front of a mirror and there is shower. The shampoo, shower foam and conditioner are all of good quality so quite a good place to bathe since the bathrooms in the hotel are tiny as shown in the pictures. I just reach my hand and can touch the ceiling already.
I have decided i dun like hairy crab! so difficult to eat. bah! the hair is so prickly wan bleahz.... Keep pricking my fingers and the meat not specially sweet also. =p
Think Hokkaido towns have a very... quaint english town look. Shophouses along a river and the wonderful chocolate factory with the beautiful garden outside.
Then after 7 days in Hokkaido, we went Tokyo!
Tokyo is... shopping, shopping n shopping! hahahah just buy! all their things so kawaii! their accessories especially! =p I bought 3 bags n 3 pairs of earrings hahha... then lotsa handphone accessories which can last me 2 handphones bah hahaha so silly =p but tokyo is tiring lah... cuz no travel coach so we travel on our own so just keep walking n walking to take trains lah. Not like in hokkaido take travel coach then go on board then can koon le hahahhah... RY shld know tis best hahaha that time in taiwan, i go on travel coach then concuss le... same as in hokkaido but tokyo no no. so quite jialat. abit not used to it on first 2 days. think my legs are no longer the same after 4 days at tokyo. Their train systems is quite ok once u get e hang of it. Quite cool also cuz many ways to reach ur destination. hahah many ways = abt same time kind of many ways. lol... But hor... their interchange is horrible.... hahah... one of the walks from 1 train line to another train line is like double the distance between the 2 outram stations hahahah... walk until wanna die =p n i know why japanese so slim liao... their subway escalators is minimal. majority is with either have an upward direction only or no escalators =(
So in tokyo, we went shibuya which is like the hip place... ppl dress in bombastic hair etc. abit far east like but with taka pricing so not much luck there. There harajuku also young young hip place pricing is far east range. so got some outcome. We also went this anime street. my fren went crazy n bought like 80 ovver bucks on anime stuff hahaha.... then the first2 places are mainly girls then the anime street is mainly guys so we feel kinda out of place =p hahaha... oh ya they hav quite a few porn anime. weird eh? their real life porn is like everywhere; why want anime porn? *roll eyes*
hahah then we went to see their imperial palace... erm imperial palace garden bah. didnt get to go in cuz its only open on the emperor's bdae or something =p then they have this sentosa like island which is shopping shopping too! n there got ferris wheel! hahaha very nice Tokyo skyline =p
We also went to this street festival of theirs at one of their shrines. wake up at 5am *shudders* was like squashed during the festival kinda scared that my frenz will fall down n get trampled on =( anyway once their street fest pass, the shrine area is quite touristy so lotsa accessories shop as well... then they have lotsa small eateries there hahha happy.
Finally!! Disney land!!! hahahah very nice!!! e scenery is very good!! e rides look not bad.... not very scary kind... but hor... e queues were damn long lah. so in e end we only took 2 rides. cuz 1 ride queue for half an hr then another ride queue for 1.5 hr then we sianz le so we just walk ard take pictures n shop. highlight: their lights parade! very nice! really quite magical. n ppl there is quite civilised i m quite surprised. hahaha they all sit down n watch the lights parade wan so even if u sit rite at e back u also can see cuz everyone sitting down. =p I wanna go disneyland again!! n take more rides! hahah n see e light fest n fireworks again!! hahaha i told my frenz if i ever get a filthy rich husband, i shall request him book disneyland 1 day for honeymoon! hhahah shiok! then i invite all my frenz go there n play! yippee...
On the last day in Tokyo, we travelled to Narita to take the plane home. As we are worried that we are not able to catch the flight due to traffice jam, we reach the airport 5 hrs ahead of our flight. So we spend 5 hrs shopping at Narita. Shiok! lotsa food and there is a book store there so I bought a book, Helen of Troy. My fren bought lotsa food there cuz she wanna spend more of her yen =p
So ended my trip to Japan. Sure wish to go back there. |
