had an incident two nights ago when a Thai staying at the hostel came back to report that his wife of 26yo is missing @ Ueno from 930pm. after overhearing their long-heated but otherwise pointless discussion, I decided to go search for his wife at the Ueno station instead of waiting for the police. It was 12am+ therefore have to walk there as the train stations are closed. wl came along. it was about a 30 min walk to Ueno from Asakusa. to our luck, found the wife at the ueno station, she has waited patiently for her husband to come back to her for nearly 3 hrs! had some fun chatting with the local police and the higher rank plainsclothes police and the conflict was resolved. their police can be really nice people and badasses. and they are very careful. even when the plainsclothes police come and collect the girl, they dont want to let him (the local ones) as they must make sure its the real police. anyway, was a really dramatic scene as we saw the two couples hug and cried. x)

on tokyo: the more u think about it, Tokyo's nothing much. It's just a bigger version of Singapore - that means wider variety of clothes, cars, people, personality, problems, and such. buildings are also alot bigger, and the heritage is very much older. that's what I like most about Japan, the shrines and stuff. The newer fashionists kinda gets on my nerves.

on my predicament: got double backstabbed by ww and wl today when i woke up to find both of them disappeared from the hostel. plan was to meet at 630am in hostel then go tsukuji market but all of them are gone! smsed ww and he said he will be back TMR. like wtf. is this sad or what? rofl. didn even bother to sms wl with her pms attitude. she never replies anyway, just to save that few cents so she can spend on more clothes. Therefore, here am I, camping in the hostel with red-alert amount of money, wasting time away like a true nipponjin! ^_^ (btw, i'm not angry or anything)

i tried uploadin pics just now and it hung. 2nd try and it worked but really upload very slow.

The area where i'm staying in - Asakusa. Some people stay it is a tourist trap but I dont think so. There are many nice people here and I havet encountered any ridiculously priced items..




Here's a shot of Sakura flower in Chuzenji. What luck to find it XD

oh and I forgot to mention. I entered Todai (aka tokyo university, #1 in Asia) yesterday :) the number of pretty chicks and handsome dudes dramatically decreases as the intellectual threshold goes higher it seems. haha, juz like in SG. its a place where alot of people are studying, everywhere on benches, libraries, canteen... pics are in my cam and cant be uploaded atm.. went past a few of their ENGLISH classes and I could spot mistakes on the blackboard instantly. now we know why their english sucks.

took me a really long time to upload the pics. back in sg it will be easier. so laters for now. i'm actually missing SG. gonna get myself some mee pok with more spicy more mee :P

also, heard that things are going very badly at home.. i feel helpless there's nothing i can do abt it. its not something we can do about? or can we do something about it? hang in there..
