Japan Tour Day 1
Japan Day 1
Went to Japan for 7days. Had tons of fun there. Exposed to the culture and finally I get to go where Naruto and Bleach spawned from. Haha (Btw it's an anime)
So our day started early cause we flew in around midnight.
Planes don't feel safe as they use to.
I hate turbulence, I mean sure it feels like a roller coaster but what's the worse that can happen on a roller coaster rite? Puke, headaches, lost of appetite after it. But not on the plane, you can't puke cause there are always toilet trolls hogging the toilet entry. You can't have headaches cause it's so high up (Ok I am making this up) and you can't lose anymore appetite with plane food.
So you pray for dear life that the pilot driving the plane is still the same pilot driving it when you started the journey. Haha but seriously at 30 thousand feet the oxygen to my brain is thin and I panic at times. But what the heck atleast I get to watch Jumper before the worst! So anyway we touch down at kanasai.... I mean Kansai. I hate the Custom checks because it takes forever. The weather in Japan was cool but tad dry (Not humid at all!). Lips started cracking. Departed to see a Castle in Osaka.
Kansai Airport
Thats the castle. Cool eh? Look really carefully and you will see a ninja
In Japan their students go for field trips and get to visit castles, theme parks, etc.
So we saw a bunch of young ones and they were friendly. Ohio! Haha so cute.
In Malaysia our students go to cyber cafes for field trips. So we too have it here
This is a unique sign. If you let you imagination run wild, you will see
Crying face, Smiley face, Dead sideways face, Smiley, Smiley and Smiley face with leftover grains of rice. Talk about being creative with language
We were then off to Universal Studios!
Belle bought these. Rather cute
Churitos, sugar coated tree twigs. Tasted like that to me :D
Cool designed buildings in Universal. Wanna know something cool?
Enlarge this pic and read the sign. You will laugh
Told you it was unique. Hehe. Nothing inside!
There is 1 vending machine to every 24 japanese in Japan
In malaysia we have 1 robber to every 24 malaysian.
Ranging from 120 to 150 Yen (100 Yen around Rm 3.10)
Don't be tricked Elmo smacked me really hard on da head
After Universal we headed of to Shin Sai Bashi. One of the longest shopping place.
It's like Rundall Street in Adelaide cept that it stretches 7km long!!!
About 1/10 million passersby a day on holiday, Osaka
The girl on the left was checking me out. Seriously!!!
Belle laughed and didn't believe me! Sigh... Do you?
Ah Lian... I mean hip happening clothings
In case of collision, you got someone to cushion your fall :D
StarBucks!!! The only English sign whole day besides Universal
Ok fine! Second english banner. English is like alien to them
Chick with LV bag
I am no marine biologist but this crab is HUGE! And 18000 Yen?
Chick in blue with pet... erm I mean fren
Night shots in Osaka!
Love this chocolate! nice nice

Water Horse

Remember this show?
Well I don't really like it.
Never did enjoy British production cept' for a certain few.
Felt like I was watching Free Willy all over again.
Willy was still adorable when he was big can't say the same for the Loch.
Compare them

Well maybe it's just my taste cause Belle enjoyed it. Haha
But enough of that. Watch it and you will see what I mean.
However this post is about a new breed of water horse.
It's the first I have seen but apparently it exist and there are sign boards warning ppl about it.
Check this out. Its a Water Horse mix Jelly Fish.
I call it the Jelly Horse or the Water Fish.
Some people come up with the weirdest drawings. Apparently the sign is also sexist, unless you are a man that loves to wear bikini. Oh yea mind you only bald people should be worried :D

The Walking Bike
Well we all know how healthy it is to ride a bicycle or walk.
We hear how it builds stamina, strengthens the heart and tones muscles.
How about a new bicycle that walks for you and leaves the riding to you?
Cool eh? Well it looks cool to me.
Practical? Maybe not la cause people can steal your shoes.
Also as a guy, I don't have that many pairs of shoes for it to wear.
Girls on the other hand have no problem. They most probably be able to dress up 10 bicycles.
But the concept is cool though. I mean think of it.
You are coming back from a mall and decide to go to gym.
No need to worry. Pop out the sneakers from your bike and you are ready to hit the irons.
It's also a grand idea to wind dry your smelly shoes :D
You can display your latest collections!

How we see ourselves

Isn't this so true? What causes us to see ourselves in a dimension only known to us?
Is it the reflection on the mirror or is it the mirage of the mind?
Why Women think they are fat?
Because they are! Hahahaha. Nar kidding. Just from observation, they like to compare alot and tend to be over calculative about portions of things. 1kg might sound like 1 tonne to the girls. This becomes serious as they lose their love for their own body and person. They tend to wonder who they are sometimes. The world say that slim and fit is the way to go, having these traits makes it worse cause they will succumb to what the world tells them is beauty or popular.
Why Men think they are hunks?
Because we are!!! Hahahaha. Kidding again. But I can say that it's cause of ego.
Guys are visual and most of us come from our own fantasy made worlds being superheroes and stuff. I mean what good would be a hero that looks like a spaghetti. Put it this way, have you seen a small kid in his imaginary world? Where he seems he can shoot laser beams out of his fingers and fly? Yup... So guys imagine and see things that are 4th dimensional and when they grow up they still do! Haha. Why do you think guys say stuff like "Aiya I can do better la" :D
Well be it the guys or gals we all need balance on what the world says and what God says
Some reminder :
Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward. For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.--Hebrews 10:35, 36
Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.(Romans 8:37)
Famous quotes:
Confidence is contagious. So is lack of confidence.--Vince Lombardi
You gain strength, experience and confidence by every experience where you really stop to look fear in the face. You must do the thing you cannot do. --Eleanor Roosevelt
Confidence, like art, never comes from having all the answers; it comes from being open to all the questions --Earl Gray Stevens

Footie
Well I haven't been playing sports for more than 6 months hence the gain of weight.
Still yet to fully recover from a bad knee injury, but soon. :)
Can't wait to be kicking balls and breaking arms!
Some say that futsall is a guy's sport, I beg to differ.
Girls can play as well as most of us guys can and yea be rough at the same time.
All they need is get out of the herding mindset and they will do fine :D
What herding instinct do I mean?
Picture this with me, with girls it's 1 ball 10 girls.
Nope still dont get it? Ok let me try this
With the guys it's 1 ball and 2 guys fighting over it. :D :D :D
Ok ok I better stop making fun.
Just kidding girls but seriously it is just a sport and we do it for a good excersize and fun.
Think girls can't be rough?
I rest my case :)

The Wedding Finger
Dont worry we all know it's not the 'universal' finger but just next to it.
But here is something interesting about that finger. Have you ever wondered why?
I mean why not the pinky? Or the index finger?
Well the Chinese believe this,
Thumb represents your Parents
Second (Index) finger represents your Siblings
Middle finger represents One Self
Fourth (Ring) finger represents your Life Partner
Last (Pinky) finger represents your children
Ok now try this position with your fingers.

Try seperating the thumb, followed by the next index finger and so forth and so on.
Notice something?
Yup it can't be seperated. So interesting enough, parents won't be with us forever.
Our siblings will soon lead their own paths in life.
Our children will too one day grow up and start their own.
One thing that sticks is your partner in life.
Two become on eh? Kinda cool :)
Congrats if you are getting married or tied the knots! :D
