一時更新

ちょっとだけ、更新します。
Sorry it's in Japanese. But maybe if I have time tomorrow, I will try to update this in English too. I'm sad that I cannot update all photos that I have in the way I wanted to but will update some later too. Maybe if I wake u early enough,I can go to cafe to upload more.
あんまり時間もないから手早く安否だけ情報流します、生きておりますよ。


いま、マレーシアのマラッカってところにいます。シンガポールからだとバスで五時間くらい。
なかなか歴史的に情緒のある場所です。
カフェがたくさんあって、私としてはうれしいし、好き!しかも可愛い服たちがやすいのだ!今日も値切りに値切って1000円相当を500円までおとしました。あはは

今までいろんなところいって、いろんな人にあったけど、
とりま、更新したい人一人目

イブラハムっておじいちゃん。
ちょーかわいいど笑

私が生まれる前に1980年に日本に2年間いたんだって!そして、ノリがいいおじいちゃん。かわいい。。。
日本語まだ覚えてたよ!
たくさん話してくれた。

そして、この辺のことたくさん教えてくれて、きょう彼はクアラルンプールというマレーシアの首都にいくから、(実は私も金曜日にそこにいくので)その町でまた会おうね!ってなったの。ちゃんとマレーシア番号もこうかんした!
会っていろいろとまたおしえてもらおう。わたしんちのおじいちゃん見たい!ちょーすき。

いろんなひとに今日あったけど、イブラハムとは20ぷんくらいしかはなししてないけど、でも、彼が今日ハイライトだった!
マレーシア、メキシコみたいに、何じゃこれ系がおおく、面白いっす。

バイク乗る時、みんなジャケットを後ろ前反対に着てる!風が入るとジャケットがじゃまになるからかなー
始めて見た時まじうけた笑


とりあえず、またシンガポール帰ったらまたupするけど、きっとその前にクアラルンプールでもういっかいなんか、更新します!じゃね!

Sentosa Station - Singapore

Sentosa is, maybe needless to say, where Marlion is located. 
I've heard there is another Marlion in somewhere in Singapore but it was too small and many travelers got disappointed so Singapore gov built the one more (bigger) Marlion. That's the one in Sentosa Island. Sentosa also have Universal Studio (according to my friend, it's okay for half day stay lol ). There are some people stay in hostel for universal Studio.... aha 

This is Sentosa Station. 


There are three beaches in Sentosa. We went one in the all the way behind. It's Palawan beach. 










This is Palawan beach. I think in Palawan beach, there are more Caucasian than Asian people :P ahaha  



I'm going to traveling all around Malaysia--> Vietnam--> Cambodia --> Malaysia(Borneo island) --> then come back to Singapore in the end of July. 
My new journey and the first traveling in SE Asian Continent. I'm pumped.
At first, I was really thinking so hard either Mexico or Malaysia. Of course, Mexico is attractive but due to the financial reason, I gave up.



But instead, I swore myself to go to Mexico in 2014 when I supposedly move to my next step in my life. 



Life is short but it's long. Life is long but it's short.
Since I have already planned what I wanna do in 7 years ahead from now, I HAVE TO live in my life for at least seven more years. 




There is one of my friend, Japanese teacher in my university, she said she is living in her life with the feeling that she fulfilled today so she can die tomorrow. 
I haven't reached to the point of mentality yet but I hope I will someday... 





 Just now, I'm excited for my whole new unexpected one month living coming up in front of me


I just took a nap while I was reading a book of Malaysia. 
so peaceful. I just slept with my camera out but no one stole it :P ahaha 
I wouldn't do that anywhere but here. 

I'm excited for my whole new unexpected journey for one month. 
Gotta prepare for it :))

Walking around Singapore

I finally arrived to Singapore. This is actually the second country that I go in Asia after SKorea.Frankly, Singapore is pretty similar with Japan. It's really organized and just easy to get around. I need to know the bus routs. The other day I passed the bus stop that  i supposed to get off.... so I ended up riding back to the station that  I was. Everything is experience right? lol


Where I live now in Singapore is not that far from the downtown area but it's about 20 min to get to city hall station.
It's okay for me.

My friend told me the nearest supermarket area. It was like individual small stores for bread, tools, vegetables and fruits. So I went there. I felt like I was in Hong Kong or China. EVERYONE speaks Chinese... I guess it's chinese... Idont know.
randomly there is always some sort of exercise machines outside. I also see the elepticle in a park.... it was funny a mid age guy was riding a elepticle in a park and children are playing around that.... ahaha 

UGHHHH..... Dorian... It(s famous fruits which is smelly but yummy( as far as my friend says). I will try someday.... 

At the local market. I was taking picture and everyone looks like what's going on!! ahaha They were so surprised that I'm taking a picture of local market. This is really local place near my house so probably none of  sightseeing people will come.... 

oh oh oh ..... oh... 

mm... I bought this at howker (small food market, really really cheap)  it was not really good.well it was only $3 lol so I understand. 



Sleeping people

many people were sleeping like this during day. I see at least 5 or 6  people a day sleeping like this. whata peaceful country 

I have seen this character at somewhere.... lol 

I thought this chair is cute. 

really cute but not too much. It looks like Harry Potter comes out. 



AT THIS MOMENT that I drank, I SWORE MYSELF NOT TO BELIEVE JAPANESE CHARACTER ON ANY PRODUCTS IN SINGAPORE.In Singapore, many products have weird Japanese character(sometimes it's correct). This tea...... is was sweeten! If Japanese company has this name 緑茶on the bottle, it never ever sweeten. so I was so shocked and disappointed lol I would never ever believe Japanese character on products in Singapore. 

red bull! Everyone likes this bland like we see the red bull car in Ohio lol 



Since I came to Singapore, I started realizing there are way more greens than I thought. There are really many.Later I was told from my friend that the Singapore gov is actually counting all trees that hey have on the street....it's up to you if you think this is too so much control or really organized..  


inside the bus. pink and yellow... cute :) 

two stories bus is usual.

in Singapore, there is always four language on the signs. English, Chinese, Arabic, and I think the one more is hindu.

My friend took me to Little India at the night I arrived to Singapore. 
We went to very very local store... everyone eats by hand, no spoon, no menu... This is such a hard place to get around for people like me who don't know anything about Indian culture.... The curry was, needless to say, so spicy ... lol I forgot to say "no spicy!"..... aha it's experience! lol 


This is Little India in Singapore. so bright and had many lights everywhere. didn't feel like it was at 8pm .... 


The hotel in Little India. I have heard this is a bit expensive but great hotel? looks like it. 


assume some sort of hindu temple. I haven't really sightseeing in Singapore. Just always have something to do. I need to go there and see inside.

Singapore Airlines

Singapore airline is known as the world number 1 customer service. I had never had an opportunity to board on Singapore Airline. But this time the flight to Singapore was by Singapore Airline and my favorite Japanese airline ANA! uwa! I was so happy :)))

So this time on my blog, I write about Singapore airline.
The CA was, of course, really beautiful and cute. The women CA were wearing something like traditional clothes. it was really cute and wanted to take picture but couldn't.
This is a monitor  I stared at for at least 5 hours ahaha

On the way to go to Singapore, I didn't sleep but watched two movies. One was "SALT" of Angelina Jolie. It was fun but what is that ending,... what? lol I guess it indicate the SALT 2 is coming up...
The other one I watched was "This Means War". I like the movie of Top Secret Agents or CIA lol so this story was good for me,... well I will go back to the story about Singapore Airlines from now .lol



In Singapore Airline, you also get wet towel to wipe your hands out. It's like Japan. In Japan, we also get Oshibori (wet towel) in the restaurant. Some midage guys wipe out their face...ugh
 This was the menu of the food we can get.

Lunch and Breakfast

Lunch is two types. International selection or Japanese version



This drink, Singapore Sling, was sooooo good. I think it has alcohol a bit but it doesnt taste like alcohol.
The red drink is the Singapore Sling. and The penuts, of course, but I don't like it .... ugh


Of Course, I chose the Japanese version lunch. It had a appetizer of vinegar and vegetables. 
The noodle with source.
Rice, grilled beef ( it taste like bulkogi somehow )
and I had Japanese cookie and of course, Hoogen -Darts Ice cream! yaaay


Flyyying but you see the island behind the wing?
 I don't know where this place was but it looks like still developing.



 This was like 10 min before we land, we were crossing the ocean and saw this many ships. I assume this is the port of Singapore and Malaysia?? I guess?

I safely arrived to Singapore and came down to the apartment that  I supposedly see my friend's  friend. 
They are Japanese couple and have been really nice to me. My life in Singapore would be totally different if I hadn't met them. 
This place that I'm staying is actually really good quality and price. I know I have to find a cheaper price apartment, but I kinda wnna stay here. But I'm going to travel for one month so it's okay not to think for now.... :3 aha 
well My life in Singapore started finally.
