okay!still in japan right now.yesterday,i wen to Mt Fuji!there were like ice and snow there,and there was also an ice cave,which is so freaking cool,with all the staglamites and staclatites(sth like that lah)some hanging from the cave ceiling and others poking out from the ground.there was this part which was so small even i had to crawl in,anf FYI the ceilings were damn low,you almost had to squat and squeeze your way through the tunnels.LOL!but it was seriously a lot of fun!i loved it!and...we went out to the 4th so-called layer of the volcano,which was 2020m high,and it was so cold!only about 1-2 degreesthe peak was full of snow!oh,and they had a bat cave too!but it was higher up,and so we couldn't be bothered to climb all the way up there.besides,the "visiting" hrs were almost over.Before that,we went to a place which i don't know what the name of the place is,but the crater from the volcanic eruption was about 10m deep,and it was filled with water,and there were fishes inside,and ppl threw coins in,so u must think that it's really murky and stuff right?but guess what!it was so... clear you could see all the way to the bottom so clearly!i have a phto of that,and i'll post it soon!Even before that,we went to a lake surrounded by mountains,and we rented a duck-like thing and paddled it.Oh,and i fed the swans in the lake too!it was quite fun!the food was good,ate steak for lunch,and went to this fancy restaurant around i dunno where to eat,there was nabe and all sorts of sashimi and other stuff,and it just tasted great!all this in courtesy of my dad's friend who drove us around the whole day,bringing us here and there.he gave me some really cute presents too!!!i think that was it for yesterday.OH!almost forgot,the hot springs up in the mountain!it's like natural spring water from the ground,and it's about like ...80-90 degrees hot.the people put the raw eggs in there,and after a while,when you take it out,it'll be black.it tasted really... good!especially with some salt.Today,my dad had to go to the tokyo university where he studied to do some work and stuff,so my mum and i went to shibuya to shop!we wanted to go to harajuku to,but then we spent so much time at shibuya,so there wasn't any time left for harajuku.there were a few major shopping centres,like seibu which is kinda like a combination of all the branded shops,and there's the Loft,which is FULL of really COOL stuff!and not forgetting Tokyo Hands,which are all hand-made stuff,and the things there are equally cool!and there's also this place called Tokyu(nope,i didn't spell it wrongly,it's meant to be like that)they had a food show in the basement,and it waas so nice!gonna post pictures of the food i bought,but only the nice ones.shan't go too much into it,or your saliva would start dripping down.lol...bought alot of nice food.their gyoza was really nice,and their packing too!they don't just dump your stuff into one plastic bag,they wrap it with many layers,and tie a ribbon around it,and my mum thinks that they use too much materials which is soo not good to the enviroment.haha!Haven't eaten dinner yet,gonna go now!post again soon!LOVES!

HEY EVERYONE!!!!I'm blogging from japan!the temperature here is like up and down(and all around!) lol!flew off last night,and arrived this morning.it's like 9.36pm here now in tokyo,which is one hour earlier than singapore,so it should be around 8.36pm there now.it feels so good to be actually using a computer again!!i've been really deprived of it for like i dunno how long!!!more than a week definitely!i'm gonna be buying stuff back like things to eat and play and etc. etc.but i can't say that i'm buying stuff for everyone okay.still suffering from jet lag right now,only slept for like a few hours last night,but luckily i was flying executive class so it wasn't that cramped,and the breakfast was good too!oh,and the plane was like double-decker!but only the first class ppl got to go upstairs.well,almost there,but the seats are of not much difference anyway.so,oh well.did a hell lot of walking today.tired,and my shoes weren't that afterall,they hurt like crap man!and even with my gloves on,my hands are still cold as ice.and btw i'll be posting pictures only when i get back to singapore,cuz i didn't bring my adaptor along with me on this trip.and i'll be going to Mt. Fuji tomm!it's gonna be like damn cold up there on the mountain-ish volcano.but my dad's friend would be driving us there,so no biggie!their trains are so great man!the seats are all like sofa seats and it's so nice and warm inside.VERY good place for sleeping.*snore...*i'll post more about japan sometime soon again on the trip,anyway,there'salways no one using the computer,and i shall take over it!!! (:The class reunion was okay i guess...and weichin & wenbo,stop spamming my inbox with that one single sentence!quite some people got sick apparently and some didn't want to come,i didn't really mind those ppl not coming but except for a few of them of course.we met late at JE mrt,and there was only like 8 of us,so we started calling mainly wanting (: *credit credit* and then we decided to change the venue to escape theme park instead of originally decided ECP.after a long time on the train,riding almost from one end to the other,we reached there,waited for some ppl,and set off with 10 ppl.Namely:Vel,wanting,me,joyce,shihui,elizabeth low,yijing,mingze,wenbo & weichin.so to those of you who came along,thanks for coming,and i hope that you had fun,cuz i did!just nice that day was their 7th anniversary,so the entrance fee instead of 16.50,was only 7.00!!!!less than half the price!!!cool eh?so happily we went in,and rented lockers and finally started playing,kso we kinda split-ted up the guys,dunno what they did,but vel,wt and shihui wanted to go for the viking(pirate ship thingy),and i didn't so the rest of us,yijing,liz low,joysce and me went to queue for the go-kart!it was SUCH a BLAST!!!when we finished our ride,with either liz low or yijing coming in first(among the 4 of us),we saw that the queue was like super freaking long!so i was secretly happy that we went to play then.and then....i think we went walking around aimlessly,looking for one another,and the next one we played should be the bumper boats,and the indian guy in front of us was boasting and saying that he's going to jump into the pool,walau...so show-off!anyway,we were shooting each other,and the guys outside using the "guns" got a bit wet too,cuz we were all like aiming at them.ha!serves them right!so when we were done,i could really squeeze water out of my pants!then we went to the haunted house,which i went in front and yijing was like clutching on to me behind me and asking me to walk slower,lol...she was scared but wanted to look at those "ghosts" around us.but i was glad to finally see the exit sign,it was quite a good haunted house,better than last time.and then we went to have lunch,and guess what,when we went out,all of the rides were down for like maintanence except for the go-kart,bumper boats,and haunted house which we all played already.so walked around some more,then decided to drag peta to ride the go-kart.she was so afraid of hitting this and that and everything around her,but did she?nope,not at all!HEY PETA!you're quite good okay!and you played it before like last year together with some other guys what,right?so we queued for an hour and when we were done,we went to check on the wet n wild ride which we all wanted to have a go at,but then the queue was so long,and i had to leave at that time,so oh well,that's the only sad thing that happened!no wet n wild ride.last year too!i gotta ride it someday!well,this has been such a long post,so i g2g to sleep now!and awit for my return!and if you're lucky,you'll see me with your present too!NIGHTIE!!!!
