Almost missed Narita cos of suspect food poisoning. Was still in a huge dilemma even 2 hours b4 reporting whether to go and see a doc. But in the end i went to work.

The driving force? Not wanting to jeopardise my probation anymore. Haiz...

Thank god, it wasn't that serious, except that it's uncomfortable to work with this washing-machine effect in your stomach. =/

What's worse, i caught a cold again!!!! Hate the dusty cabin air.

Despite the cold, decided to join Jo to chiong to Shinjuku, instead of staying in Narita, what even the japanese crew call it a 'kampong' LOL...
Once again, i give anything to sight see, what's more when there are people who knows the way around. =9

The market street @ Ueno. My dad would have love this place for all the seafood, esp that big crab hehehe...


Hit Harajuku and Shinjuku, yet i did not take much pictures! *slap my forehead*

Partly becos Jo has so much agenda and was rushing from 1 place to another, doing his shopping, i didn't have much freedom to do so... And partly, i guess being unwell just kills half the enthusiasm. *Haiz*

So don't expect much.

And if not for Jo, i didn't know men can be such shoppaholics!!! *Gasps* As if it's anything new, just that those i know aint those types?? =)

And the reason why Jo's so onz to travel all the way to Tokyo city?
Bathing Ape and Nintendo Df.

This guy's mad about the Japanese DJ-turn-designer NiGo's brand: Bathing Ape. And he literally brought me to check out all the BAPE outlets at Harajuku, the fashion district.
Even the BAPE cafe below.


The dessert we had in the cafe before we hit more BAPE stores.
A lot of walking to be done >.<" cos the boutiques aren't situated in prominent places, as the designer prefers it low profile. Not anymore, cos one more person just got to know: that's me =9



APEE ~ BAPE for ladies.


Yet another BAPE boutique. I like the display of shoes on the second storey. They are only for display and not for sale... NiGo's very much a collector himself.


BAPE's funky but aint my style, plus the stuff aren't cheap at all. In fact, it's almost up-market. But it nice visiting the boutiques cos they are all so hip and trendy.

Wished i had more time to look around in Harajuku. Wanted to shop for some nice winter wear. Oh well~ Just take it as another orientation trip again =) ...

Honestly, i'm more comfortable with travelling on the trains in Japan now, cos the train system looks intimidating to me. There's like different category of trains: from the slowest one that stops at every stop, to slow, to fast, and to speed ones that only stop once or twice. Take the wrong one and land myself miles away from my destination can mean, i'll miss my flight ! Which explains why i'm damn afraid of getting lost. But thanks to Jo, roughly learn how it works now.

And till the next time i dare to venture out myself ;)

*****************
Heh~ My first french twist.
It's ugly i know haha... Need to practise more =9

Learn from a senior girl onboard from NRT-BKK, cos the load was sooo light we had loads of time. She took out her french twist to re-tie it and that's the first time i ever see anyone do it. Visualization is the best way to learn =)
Even Jo was teaching me cos he watches his gf do it all the time
LOL...
