Summary of october

Well, on 4/10, i bought my very first apple ipod nano the 5th generation. It's blue, 8g, 14800yen, and can record video.
Emmm...why did I bought it ah?... maybe it's because I think I should have one anyway, can listen to music on train, when teachers lecturing, or while jogging alone... well, a 投资 ^^

For the whole month, I'd been busy with my design contest. With 4 friends of mine, we made a water filter of our own to filter the red water which contain tiny powder to clean water. We got this idea of let the water flow inversely through the coal and because of it we got the special prize. We didn't turn the water clean at the end, that's one that we should have solved coz it's the main purpose of the contest. There's are some team that really clean the water and really shocked us coz they only use coal or clothes only. Hmmm, good and memorable experience anyway.

Pear picking

21/9
Wow, in Japan, there are pear, grape, strawberry, 桃 picking and more I think. I followed my church member to pear picking this day and it's such a nice experience. I never seen a pear tree before and the shape is just like grape tree. After paying 1000yen, I ate 4 pears in 2 hours. It's super sweet. And went straight to toilet after I got back. Haha. They got prepared onigiri too and I ate 2 of them. Nice nice!

だまし絵

17/9 Host family program! 2 host parents took 4 of us to see the 騙し絵. Everyone of us wore like artist leh. some of the pic really got us tricked. Interesting though. And the host parents treated us lunch and dessert before we went back. Hehehe...

Cat and cake

寮母bought a sewing machine for our usage in hostle and she even taught us how to make a cat using unwanted clothes. I made 3, Joyce made 7 and Teng, more then 3 gua. Cute cute oh!!

I made a cake myself too. It's a lemon cake and turned out not bad. Boleh tahan la.
And I learned how to make 大学芋too. It's to mix sweet potatoes with oil plus sugar. Super easy and delicious ^^
It's the first time I made one so not look that nice >,<

English camp

11/9 - 13/9 Teng and me followed our english teacher to a english camp for 3 days. We as headquarter leaders were asked to introduce malaysia's culture to the 13 years old japanese student. We need to repeat it 3 times for 3 classes for about 45 minutes each. Oh, with lack of preparation we did it badly. So sorry to the school that hire us. Got paid 13000yen but feel myself not worth it. Learnt lessons during the camp. Gonna upgrade myself from now on.

USJ

10/9 We spent a whole day in USJ today. It's sth like Disney land but there's all characters from movies. There's Jurassic Park, spiderman, snoopy and hello kitty museums, 4D show, fear ride... Got 2 parades in a day too, one at 3pm and one at 7pm. I took a photo with Shrek once I entered USJ. Haha!!!
And then that night we had chinese food buffet ^^ My 3rd buffet in 2 months. Cry....become fat fat qu

Buffet again

5/9 Today we explored Kobe. We went to Mosaic's fisherman market for buffet. It's our second buffet in this holiday. Mosaic is such a sweet place, pretty. I wore boots and walked for the whole day and got my legs so tired after I went back. Sigh.
And then we got took the ferry for one hour which costed us 800. Nice night view. Can see the Akashi bridge, the longest つり橋 in the world.

We left in the afternoon and around 6 when we wanted to reach my place, Jun Hao found out that he booked the hotel on the wrong day. They have no place to sleep so we decided to spend the night at Karaoke. We all are so tired but really enjoyed ourself.

Okinawa

The foreign students were invited to join a camp at Okinawa for 3 days 2 nights. Lectures all day except for the 3rd day we went to aquarium to see the fishes. Well, it was said that it's the prettiest one in Japan. Not bad, just we had too less time in it to enjoy watching the fishes. Ah, and influenza is terrible there so everyone of us is asked to put on mask. Pity. It's suffering wearing it all day.

Hokkaido 3

20/8 We reached Hakodate early in the morning and had seafood rice for 500yen. Super cheap! And then we went to Hakodate factory. Quite pretty there, took a lot of pictures.

And then in the night we went to see Hakodate nightview which is the top 3 most beautiful nightview in the whole world. Well, it is beautiful, can't deny it.

17/8 We went to zoo at Asahigawa. The most interesting part was to see the Polar Bear. Mum thought it's a dog when she saw the photo...does it look like one? Hmmm...
And then we went to see lavender but left a little bit only coz it's no longer the season. I ate lavender and melon soft cream and melon bun too, and all of them taste gooooood! Especially lavender soft cream. It's just so different from the others.

Hokkaido

Wow, seems like it'd been quite a long time for me to post new things on my blog.

Well, let's start from the day I went to Hokkaido... where my 2009's summer trip began

8/13

We went to Hokkaido by ferry, which took us 20 hours. We departed at midnight and reach there around 8pm. Teng, Pui San, Jia Jie and me had our good time on the ferry. It's Teng's birthday that day too and Pui San baked a cake for her. How sweet...

The first night we reach Hokkaido. This pic was took at Sapporo. And our first meal at Hokkaido was burger at MacDonald.

8/14

Hokkaido's ramen is very famous. We had our breakfast at the Ramen street at it tasted good. Got many flavour and I ordered one I think it's the most original

Charity concert

18/7 Teng's host mum took us to the charity concert which need 3000yen per person and she paid half for each of us. ^^ The band not that pro, just normal one...so Teng felt bored but I enjoyed it anyway. There were 2 women played piano after the band, all children songs coz the charity is for Brazil children.

19/7 Today I went to Okubo's cinema to watch Harry Potter with 2 Mongolians. Teng and Joyce didn't join us, they went to Akashi shopping instead. Harry Potter - the half blood prince ah, watched till the end but there's parts that I didn't get the meaning or because it's movie so skip some part of the real story..? The cinema is good, the chair is comfortable, and....and....you can't believe this...the popcorn tasted like sucks. No taste at all. Salty popcorn with butter, shouldn't order it. Next time will try the other flavour-caramel popcorn. Ah, it costs 1500yen for a movie which is RM60, oh....... Can't believe myself willing to spend the money on it too
But should try at least once.
Hmm...

12/7 六甲山

2 host mothers bring us 4 foreign students to climb rokko mountain. It's a beatiful mountain, summer starts soon but there're still Ajisai(spring flower) left. So big and beautiful +.+

actually the night view will be very beautiful but we didn't stay till night ><

Zannen...

The view is marvellous, can see the whole Kobe city. But the weather not as cold as Genting Highland la, coz not that high enough compare to Genting. The middle two obasan are the host mums. They are really nice, treat us on the whole way. The food, the transport and the tickets to step in the mountain and the farm.

我们坐缆车到半山腰, 不是爬上去的,有点矢望叻~

但之后有走好久的一段路啦.

The lovely farm with many sheeps which the fur is not as smooth as I thought. And there's got cheese factory too. We ate cheese stick and cheese ice-cream(350yen). Delicious delicious

....continue

Bought omiyage from Kyoto for the foreign students. The package is beautiful, right? Again, japanese style. Everything need to be packed nicely so the customer can be attracted to buy their products.

Our river trip for 45 minutes on from 9.30am. The sun accompanied us all along the trip and I had my skin turned black (>.<)

The photo teacher taken for me. The middle boy is being nice to me, talked to me on the first week I came. Even ask me to join the dinner with other classmates when the trip is over too.

The other guy is same group with me while doing experiment. Shy...?

Kyoto is famous with temple. This is the one i went, donate 5 yen for dad. If I'm not mistaken there's 3xxx temples in Kyoto. Including the small small one la.

The bamboo farm near the temple. Wait, is it bamboo...

So tall...

Like I'd mentioned just now, I had dinner with my friends after the trip. We had sushi near our hostle. They're playing, see if who got the super wasabi sushi. After that we walked back to the hostle together and chatted till 9pm. Looking forward to have the opportunity to go out dinning with them <^.^>
