osaka tour

It had been quite some time since I came back from Osaka.
Nothing to shop over there, it was more like a culture tour.

I went with a group of 7 others and all I should say, the trip was Fun!
Not only did I went to Japan which I very much wanted to go, the other reason being I am able to go on tour with my best friend, Ms D Someone whom I knew for a great long time, someone who have being with me through all my ups and down. Without her, I won’t be a better person now.

Well, first day when we were there, I fell sick!! The usual running nose that have caught me and even when I took my medication, it doesn’t gets better!! The weather over Japan was so hot and soon I began to get grouchy. I was even more frustrated when tissue papers seemed so precious over in Japan!! I can’t find much choice of packet tissue and they cost a “bomb”! Nevertheless I have to make do with what I could find and carry on the first day journey.

For the next few days of the trip, we are traveling out of Osaka and been to few temples. The temples are pretty in their architectural design and each temple holds a story they called their own. Times, I can’t help but to ponder how people of ancient times are able to come out with such beautiful temple and with the limited resources that they have last time, how are they able to build the temple? It is really amazing!!

The living standards over Japan is really high! Food are expensive. A simple meal or breakfast will easily cost 10 bucks and above. But I must say the food is really great!!

It’s the culture of the Japanese to dress up while they are out of house. On the streets, you will never see anyone who will dress in shorts and flip flops walking along the streets. Japanese make an effort to dress up nice and proper, even the guys are the same. It would be a shame if you were dress shabbily.

Another interesting sight in Japan is they have a lot of vending machines around!!! You can easily find vending machines everywhere and the drinks that are sold are all different from each vending machine. Unlike Singapore, our vending machines are so boring!! And Singaporean hardly buy from vending machines. For some ramen stalls, you will need to purchase a food ticket before you can sit down for your ramen. It is all so interesting over in Japan. I think I will never get sick of Japan!

Not only the culture is different, the tibits they have are of wide varieties. You simply do not know which to choose from!!

A blink of eye, my trip over in Osaka is over but I brought home with me a whole lots of fun memories, interesting tibits and of course the rich culture that I experienced over there. My next stop will be Tokyo, Japan!!

Ignore our NONSENSE

当初的你

当初你说的话有如音乐般动听
当初你给的承诺幸好我没相信
当初的你把一切说的多么美丽
只为了当初你很想得到的一切

现在的你不再像从前那样
现在的你真的已变了模样
说真的,我对你感到失望
应为你和他们根本没两样

在我眼里你像污浊的白面
也许时间可能改变这一切
我从来没相信你所说的一切
应为这一切只是美丽的谎言
