OK.... just wanna brief what I've been up to today.
Morning went to school for registration. Due to certain errors the Yamanote Line train came late. Damn it. Heard is some technical problem, but somehow I felt that maybe someone jumped off the platform 'eh?
The placement test was kinda difficult at the last part. But anyway I should be placed in the Intermediate class.
Went to Ikebukuro to do eye-shopping. Aimed Canon IXY (Malaysia call it Ixus) Digital camera. Have yet to decide which one i would be getting, as I need to do some calculations and conversions.
Anyway, I like Ikebukuro. :)
OK I will update more when I have more time..... Nowadays spend quite a lot of time in the outdoor. Tokyo metro isn't that hard, quite easy to get used to it. :)
Jamming into the train during peak hours is quite an experience as well, heh.
Oh btw, sakuras are blossoming, nice! But around my place only have the white variation, have yet to see the famous pinkish ones. Will be taking pics when I've free time to roam more....
My personal blog started in Nov 2004 archiving some of the memorable moments in life. It's also a journal of my personal development from a computer-loving teenager to becoming a digital marketer based in Tokyo. I may have a laughter or two when I read the entries again sometime in the future.

Tokyo, reached.
OK so i've lots of update here. Last night been spending some time writing it out while on the ANA flight.
Update bout things happening later I'll writing it either tonight or tomorrow.
Title: The Beginning of the Journey
Left home at 2:50pm. Forgotten my jacket so head back to home to grab it. 3:15pm restart the journey to airport again.
4:15pm reached the airport.
Checked in around 5pm. Had a quick meal at McD. Fillet’o’fish, banana pie and apple pie, simple and yet satisfying McD meal.
6:30pm, headed down into the departure hall. Left without eye-contact with family as I knew it would trigger the “bomb”. Well thankfully, no tears dripped, although it almost happen lol.
7:30pm, MH 607 KL to Singapore took off.
8:30pm, landed at Changi airport, Singapore.
Rushed to settled an issue about my hand luggage with fellow friends who’re having the problem as well.
The case goes like this:
While we’re entering the MAS plane, some of us had one of our hand luggage “checked in” as they lack of overhead compartments to store further luggages.
We landed at Changi airport. Seems like they’re having some sort of technical problem with their computer system, which make the transit check-in slower than usual. It doesn’t help us much as we need to get our “checked in” hand luggage which most of us kept our important documents in.
We’ve to walk out the immigration which is a tedious work, then our hand luggage is nowhere to be found on the luggage conveyer belt. We’re sort of worried as the time is short, we’ve to rush to catch the next transit flight to Tokyo.
Well thankfully the staffs in the airport helped us to sort things out so we’re still in time to pass through the customs and immigration all over again. Ah it sucks….. to rush for things here and there.
Quickly grabbed a sandwich and mineral water which cost SGD 8.80 overall. The pork bacon sandwich was “heavenly” as I’m hungry after rushing for all the troubles. The Evan mineral water itself tasted like the purest form of water, full glory to drench the cool liquid down the dried throat~
Tried to online via the wireless network, but damn all of them need to signup an account better they allow you to use the net. Short of time, so uses the readily available Internet computer to quickly update the blog as well as Facebook.
Well thankfully so far the experience on ANA flight is a nice one. The plane itself is far larger than the puny MAS. Ah well, so far so good….
Currently the time in Malaysia is 12:35am, but in Japan is 1:35am. Now flying over the South China Sea, towards the north-east direction.

12pm
I'm still here people. 3 more hours to goto the airport.
Just a short post, for those whom I loaned out my items, please take good care of it and I expect the same condition when I hand it over to you guys, OK? I consider you people are more careful with things so then I'm not so worried to hand it over the good stuffs for such a long period of time.
If there's anything happened *touchwood*, especially the ATH-M30 and M50, just tell me about it since I still got it under warranty (one is Nov 2009 and another is Jan 2010). Someone I know can help to fix it, but hopefully this won't happen! :)
Also, the CDs...... quite easy to maintain it compared to the headphones. Just keep the CDs nicely and out of kids' reach, it would do the trick.
I had a premonition that I will be bringing back more "poisons" when I get back here later lol!
OK then. That's it for now. I shall stop updating this blog until I reach the airport then, either at KLIA or Changi.
Anyway I will still be online until the very last moment, say, 2:50pm?
P/S: Remember, I will not be bringing my 017 number over to Jpn. The number will be returned to my sis, who's the actual owner of the number lol. Then again, will update my number here when I get it.
Ciao people.

Last Night Post
I feel like writing something here before I hit the bed.
OK so here am I, late at night.
Dont ask me what time I'll be sleeping tonight, but I'm sure I wont be having insomnia lol.
Today had a great dim sum lunch with family at Tai Thong. Once in awhile indulge in such quality food is worthwhile. Food tasted good, nothing bad to say about so yeah, we're satisfied diners.
Evening headed to relative's house near Subang Jaya. Grandparents are over there. Went to a nearby restaurant to settled for dinner, 14 persons in total. Another satisfying meal, though I believe they added quite a lot of MSG which makes me felt thirsty.
It's my mother's birthday as well so celebrated there in a simple ceremony with 2 cakes. I didn't try the cakes because I'm still full after the dinner.
Many thanks to those relatives who gave me support morally or monetarily. A little help is appreciated especially when kick-starting something.
I know if I were to online tonight surely I'll be flooded by lots of MSN messages or Facebook wall-posts. Many thanks for all the friends, though I think it'll be quite hard for me to reply all of them one by one lol. So I would like to take this opportunity here thank everyone again, for the support and well-wishes~ :D
Yeah.... There's something about friends which I would like to talk about, but I guess I'll draft about this topic while on the plane tomorrow. I would have lots of time to kill on the plane to Tokyo.
As I mentioned in previous post, I'm not feeling stressed, just, well, feeling normal like I should be?
It's good that now I can start to gain more control of my own emotion instead of letting it burst. I already anticipated that the last few moments maybe dreadful but it isn't as bad as I thought. I thought I would be panic until I wouldn't be talking to people, but now I still can joke around.
Actually I planned to write a joking post here in conjuction of April Fool's day, but I guess a lame joke here would mean shock freaker to some hahah. Was planning to write that the plan is last minute called off, and I'll remain here. Anyway, very unlikely to happen, and hopefully it won't happen lol!
So then, tomorrow ~3pm will be going to the airport already. Rather early, I know.... ~_~
Here's my flight's detail:
1 April 2009 (Wed)
MH 607 1915 - 2000 (KL - Singapore)
NH 902 2135 - 0705 (Singapore - Tokyo)
Nothing much I'll be doing on the first flight from KL connecting to Singapore. Rather short flight it is.
On the flight to Tokyo, I think I'll enjoy a bit of the in-flight entertainment, and should be spending some time writing draft for future posts on this blog. I find it rather interesting to kill time writing things out, or maybe read a book or so.
Will be transiting from Changi Airport, Singapore to Narita Airport, Tokyo as stated. Currently it's quite cold over there (7 ~ 14'C), but it's getting warmer as summer is approaching. Now is the time to enjoy the sakura flowers blossoming~ :)
If I took any photos there I'll be uploading it here, so don't worry~
In the meantime, my Maxis 017 number will return to my sister's possession. I'll be updating my contact number once I got a new Japanese phone number. Hmm.... eyeing on Apple iPhone 3G if they're still having promotion.
I know the new iPhone is launching soon in mid-year but to have a gadget like that to play around sure is cool. :D
OK, 3am now. I've made an appointment with my dream so I've got to go now. Thank you everyone for all the support, I should be back again next Feb/March then.... hopefully!! :)
