Excited

We will be flying to Japan at 6am tomorrow so was feeling excited throughout the day. 小花 and I finished our work and left office as early as possible. I had my dinner before doing some final packing for the trip.

As we will be meeting at the airport only at 4.15am, I shall take a nap now and wake up at about 1am to shower and get ready. Hope I can get some sleep so that I won't be tired during the trip :)

Cool night

Felt a few drops of rain while I was walking home tonight and it started drizzling. Told 小花 about it as she had commented earlier in the day that she was hoping it would rain so that she could use her umbrella. However, the rain stopped soon after and 小花 was disappointed that there was no rain at her area. Luckily, there was a cool breeze and the weather didn't feel as humid as the day before. Think I should be able to sleep without switching on the aircon or fan tonight :)

Getting excited at the thought of our upcoming trip... Can't wait to go....

Hot and humid day

This afternoon we went to Chinatown for lunch at Chiew Kee Chicken Noodle House. We ordered a plate of soya sauce chicken, as well as vegetables and dumplings soup to share. It was delicious and we finished the food quickly.

After the meal, 小花, Ms S and I went to People's Park Complex to exchange for some yen in preparation of our upcoming Japan trip. The rate was much lower than when 小花 and I changed for our previous trip last October.I only exchanged SGD 500 as I still had some yen left over. Looking forward to the trip :D

Didn't sleep very well last night as the weather was rather humid. Even though I managed to sleep, it didn't feel like a deep sleep as I felt myself tossing around in bed a few times during the night. Decided to on the air-con for a few hours to cool the room before sleeping tonight. Hope it helps :)

Boring day 2

Today I woke up at about noon time but at about 5pm I felt a bit drowsy so went to take a nap till about 7pm... Spent most of my day sleeping :S  Think I better sleep earlier the next few days, otherwise I would not enjoy my Japan trip if I keep feeling so lethargic.

I did some packing for the trip but finished quite quickly since it's only a short trip. Crossing my fingers that there will still be seats available...

Sigh... Have to go back to work tomorrow. Seems like my whole weekend was just spent on catching up on sleep only :(

Boring day

I only woke up at about 12.30pm today... Was a bit surprised as I had gone to bed before 1am so I have slept for almost 12 hours! I think I didn't get enough sleep these few days. No wonder I was so tired yesterday and had to use one hand to support my head while at work :P

Didn't feel like starting any new shows so decided to just continue playing Avalon Code. Later in the evening I just watched some TV shows while having dinner before continuing with the game. And the day passed just like that...

TGIF!

This morning I was at Buona Vista and saw that the train was not very crowded, so I messaged 小花 that I would take that train and wait for her at Labrador Park. The journey was quite smooth until Pasir Panjang, when the train overshot and stopped about 2 doors out of the station. We had to wait for quite some time for the station staff to board the train and manually reverse the train. However, I think there were still some problems as the train was only reversed one door back. The train doors then opened but the station doors did not. The most comical thing was that the first train door opened to a wall and a man standing in front of it looked amused. In the end, the staff gave up trying to reverse the train and just allowed the train to continue to the next station instead. Seems like the MRT system is getting more and more unstable...

We did not watch any movies tonight as we couldn't book tickets using the HSBC movie card through GV's website. So we decided to go for dinner instead and Ms H and Ms M joined us too. We decided to just have dinner at Ichiban Sushi at ARC since it should not be too crowded. I wanted to try something different so I selected the Kakiage Bukkake Yuzu Udon. The taste was good.

Ms D also joined us after she has finished her work. We ate and chatted for quite some time before going our separate ways home. Good to have spent some time together :)

It's Thursday!

Today passed rather quickly for me. Didn't had much to do before lunch so did some research for our upcoming Kyoto/Osaka trip in April :P Although we didn't leave office as early as yesterday, I still managed to reach home before 8pm.

As I have finished all my outstanding J-dramas, I decided to search for theme songs that I think are nice when watching the dramas. Sometimes listening to the theme songs will remind me of the dramas that I watched. Managed to find most songs :)

Tomorrow is Friday! Yay!

Back to work

This morning I missed a train and the next train would only arrive after 6 minutes. What a long interval, especially as it was still during peak hours :( In the end, the train was so crowded and I had to squeeze in as I was not sure how long I would have to wait for the next train. Can't understand how they could schedule such long intervals between trains when so many people are taking trains during this timing. Really spoil my mood early in the morning.

Today was a little busier than usual due to year end closing. However, 小花 and I still managed to leave office at about 6.15pm. Good that can reach home early. Hopefully can continue to do so :Þ

Last night stayed up to watch the match between Wigan and Man U. Glad that Man U won 4-0... Keep up the good work! :)

Happy New Year 2013

Happy New Year! 明けましておめでとうございます!

Today is the first day of 2013. However I did not have any plans for today so stayed at home and relax since I still have to work tomorrow.

I decided to continue watching the J-drama 高校入试 as the show seemed more and more interesting and I want to know who is the mastermind and what is his/her motive for doing it.

Hopefully 2013 will be much better than 2012! :D

New Year's Eve

Today is the last day of 2012. This morning, I was on my way to work when I received 小花's message that she might be late as her train was delayed. I was afraid that the trains would be crowded so I decided to board the train first at Buona Vista and wait for 小花 later. I had a shock when the train doors closed without warning just after I had stepped into the train. Actually 小花's train was just the next one after mine but I waited for about 10-15 minutes before her train arrived.  

Our company allowed us to leave at 2.30pm, but as we had not much mood to work, 小花 and I decided to skip lunch and leave at 1.30pm instead. We decided to go to The Star Vista for lunch and Ms K suggested going to her house after that as it was just nearby. We agreed and decided to have lunch at Watami (again! :P ) first, while Ms K went to shop around as she already had lunch. We waited a while for a table and ordered our food. Glad that it was still good :)

After the meal at Watami, Ms K joined us and we proceeded to BlackBall next door for dessert. It had started to rain heavily so we could not sit at the tables outside as they were not sheltered. There were only 3 tables indoors and all were occupied but luckily most of them were finishing soon so we did not have to wait long for a table. We ordered a BlackBall Signature to share. It was not too sweet and we could taste the yam and sweet potato in the ingredients.

It was still raining heavily after we have finished our dessert so Ms K suggested that we go to her house another time as we would get very wet walking to her house in this heavy rain even though we had umbrellas. Ms K and 小花 then went to NeNe Chicken to buy some extra food for dinner before we left to take the MRT home. However, there seems to be some problems as there were announcements at certain stations saying that train service would be delayed. The train also stopped longer than usual at some stations. Luckily I managed to reach home without any major problems.
