watched a television programme this morning, and it was featuring the famous spots and local food in Singapore. Firstly, they talked about the new fairy wheel( what do u call that actually? SIngapore Flyer or something...?), underwater world, the feng shui fountain in Suntec City, the Merlion...Hm, nostalgia...
I feel like having Yakun Kaya Toast and Bubble Milk Tea( the one which you treated me to, YiChun).

As promised, photos from my trip to Kinugawa Onsen.There still are many places in Japan where I haven't been before. SO I shall spend my time in Japan wisely to make some small trips to different places :p
I managed to visit Nagano and Tochigi during this spring vacation.
Planning to explore Hokkaido or Kyuushuu next.
Starting point was SHinjuku station. Gosh, I almost missed the train...
The train was about to leave when I climbed up the staircase leading to the platform...
SO I dashed through the crowd and slided into the train before the door closed.
phew...may have wasted my whole trip.
After all that trouble, finally arrived at Kinugawa -onsen station!
In chinese characters....the river of angry demon??? haha.
Onsen Manjyuu--! Yummy. I believe that food is the best way to find out the area's culture.
Kinugawa River!
At Trick-Art Museum. Touching the leg of the women in the picture.
Hm? Who is pulling my jacket....
Isn't this freaky??
My pet dragon.
I'm swimming towards th. dolphin
Dinner back at the hotel. I had Shabu Shabu that night!!!!
Told ya, food is culture :p
Just like a scene in Japan Hour. xp
the aftermath.
Visited the World Heritage in Nikko the next day.
Its called 'Toushouguu', where they worship the Edo Shogun Tokugawa Ieyasu.
In front of Toushouguu.
School is starting in few weeks time.
Results from the last semester is out. Did fairly well, at least better than my first semester results :p Made it into the Dean's list as well( top 10% of the cohort).
Juggling my academic studies, part-time job and the magic club definitely wasn't an easy task.
But I guess I have to work on with it.

festival @ Tuesday, March 04, 2008
How I have been spending my spring vacation...I've been working with my circle(Magic Club) for most of the time cos we are preparing for two stages. One in March and one in June.
The one in March, "Magic Show Festival" was held last Sunday at Tanashi, and that was the stage which I worked as an assistant. My 4th year senpais organised the concert all by themselves cos they wanted to perform on the stage for the last time before they graduate.
I'm so glad quite a no. of people came to catch the performance despite it being held at such an 'uluh' place :p
Thanks to Laura, Seow Han, Alex and Minhe(and her friend!) for coming all the way down.
blurred again... Laura and Seow Han.
It was quite fun wearing the costume :) Though it made me realise that I have to diet.... x(
