I was fortunate enough to have a work assignment here in early March.. barely a week before the Sakura start blossoming. In hindsight, I wish the work trip had been scheduled a bit later, so I could've at least enjoyed the start of the cherry blossoms. Perhaps some other time.

The trip was good, anyhow and I would've enjoyed it a whole load more if I had the chance to venture out of the city. But meetings were jam-packed into 2 whole days, and because I was with the CFO, I couldnt be naughty and skip any of them Itu pon I had taken an earlier flight in, so I could at least roam around town before sitting down for work. The weather was still pretty cold, and me being me, got cold hives all over again. The ones I got from London hadnt even healed properly yet!

A friend of mine loaned her Tokyo guide book, and I didn't really look at it at first because I had googled my way through lining up an itinerary filled with shopping + fish market + sushi, but damn, the book was really helpful when I nearly got lost in Shibuya en route to Omotesando. And I held on tight to it through the trip, as if my life depended on it, cause it really did Nevertheless, despite forewarnings of the confusing subway system, I find it awfully easy to navigate, after the initial period of orientation. The walks between lines and from the station to an exit can be pretty daunting tho (some are so far, it could warrant another train stop in between!). The Japanese can speak English, contrary to popular belief, and even the ones who couldn't, know enough English to spew 3-4 English words and coupled with hand gestures, make out sentences that I could understand. So no biggie. Of course, a lot of their signages were in Japanese, but English translations are more often than not there too, so really, it wasnt that bad.

Let me see if recall all the places i went to correctly:

Day 1: Narita Airport - Akihabara - Ginza - Shibuya - Omotesando - Tokyo Disney (but didnt go in sbb dah lambat)
Day 2: Work work work - it got dark by 5pm, so didnt really go anywhere - but did get to go to Harajuku nonetheless
Day 3: Work work - Shinjuku - Tokyo Government Buildings for touristy activity - Tempura resto yum! - Roponggi
Day 4: Tsukiji Fish Market (biggest fish market in the world, but it was CLOSED!!!!) - smaller seafood shops around - the only sushi outlet with English translations and got sushi daging kuda - balik

So I didnt get to see all the places in the guide book, but I didnt too shabby either. In between, I got to see the Imperial Palace n gardens as well, albeit from afar.

I didnt know I could write this much, I guess I loved Tokyo more than I think I did! A friend is planning a Hokkaido trip in summer, and am really psyched to go... but we'll see.

Amboi byk tempat erk you jelajah...

On a work trip, made time to meet up with my gal pals, Owwe + Fedd plus BJ n Hannah + Paul.. Unfortunately Eena, Nain and Mysha couldnt make it, but I saw them about 2 months back, so tak terkilan..

Came down with fever on the last day (which was the only day I was free from work obligations) so pix are mostly from dinner on 2nd nite I was there, and lunch quickie during the last day.

I FINALLY did my AOW - 2 years after doing my OWD!!! Hahahah. I am so kodi.

Takpe lah. Better late than never kan?
Went with Hasna, Fit (Hasna's schoolmate from Kedah, lawak minah ni) and Shasha. The place was decent, the marine life quite disappointing, but the dives were fantab!! My instructor was a cool Korean chick who, apparently can speak Kelate. (Hasna n Fit's instructor perempuan yg garang. Nasib baik aku tak dpt die, kalau tak konfem balik on the next boat)

One MAJOR difference about this divetrip was the absolute DISCIPLINE the dive crew practised. We had to rinse the equipment after EACH dive (yes, if you rest for an hour and go diving again after, u still have to clean ur eq). I don't know. Normal ek? (The last time I dived, I didn't need to soak/blow/rinse every single thing. Just left everything the way it was. Tukar tank jek) But I enjoyed doing that, though. Penat extra sket, but they made it fun, so didn't really mind!

Had loads of fun. Will definitely go again.

hahhahaha, oi ermie, macam tu pun kire aksi poronstar ke?
(kantoi salu tgk pornstar, ko nih)

The third and last instalment of the wedding between 'Tiara Owwe Jacquelina' and BJ. Hari yang panas terik, maka dgn itu, gambar2 sume da bomb, esp kitorang2 (gambar2 pengantin byk yg indoor kat atas pelamin, so sangat tidak jadi)... sorry Owwe.. hehehe. Btw, food sedap giler ok. Tetapi bebudak penanggah Pt Sakai sungguh garang. Selambe marah budak Pt Jawe. Tunggula korang dtg Pt Jawe nanti.. aku kejar dgn penyapu....

The pics are all either blurry or dark. Sorry la ek. I had a tough time trying to adjust the camera. Tried nightshot, and the results were all blurry because I couldnt keep my hand still. Tried auto, terus jadi gelap gelita. I have since figured out that the camera works best only when there's natural sunlight. (Sebenarnye aku tak reti ekjas.. ehheheh)
