Went to Yokohama yesterday for a school trip. Yokohama was... nice. Nice scenery, especially. And the weather was just awesome. I'll let pictures do the talking.
Armed with masks! The fight against Swine Flu.
The amusement park we wanted to go to but gave up because the rides were too expensive.
This is truly postcard-worthy.
This man kept taking photos of us!
We had some encounters with several "professional" photographers (or at least they looked the part) yesterday - one helped us take a photo with HIS camera, one (points above) kept taking photos of us without our permission, one came to ask my friend with a DSLR if she took any nice photos and striked up a conversation. What's with these people?
Trying to emo by the sea but failing terribly.
The azure bluish-white, Oh-so-pretty sky.
Wild flowers growing in the crevices of cement by the sea.
See, even the most beautiful things can grow under the most filthy, uncomfortable, harsh conditions. Isn't it beautiful how they can bloom so nicely with the 'hmmm' place it had to make do with?
This reminds me of God's lessons to me (:
Class girls. Not everyone's in the picture though. We didn't get to take a class photo.
Countries from Left to Right: Myanmar, Indonesia, Singapore, Singapore, Myanmar.
Class guys. Again, not everyone's in the picture.
Countries from Left to Right: Hong Kong, China, American-born-Taiwanese, China
Then we were off to Chinatown!
Where China meets Japan.
It never fails to amaze me how everything looks the same in Japan. The roads and all. Even in Chintown, it has a touch of Japan in it.
Ridiculously expensive 肉包.
You can buy about 8 of these in Singapore at this exorbitant price, okay.
And finally, the highlight of the day. (:
Deborah and Charmine in Japan meets for the first time!
Hahahaha this is proof to all Churchies that Deborah met Charmine, okay? It wasn't easy to coordinate a time to meet but we did it!
How can don't meet, you tell me? せっかく東京へ来たのに・・・！
And this is her be-earlied birthday present to me! :D KINDER SURPRISE OHMYGOSH.
Hahaha tell ya'll something funny. It's funny how great minds think alike! You see the packet of Haw Flakes? It's the exact same packet I bought in Chinatown on the same day she gave it to me, because I so happened to be craving for it! Love from Singapore, I say (:

Swine Flu's hit Japan quite hard. It's already hit Tokyo and it's creeping closer and closer to where I am. But I don't think there are any casualties as of now, so thank God for that. But it seems that we're not anywhere near to closing down the school yet ):
AND, Friend from London is going back to Singapore for her holidays! Goshhhh this makes me so, so jealous! It seems like eternity until I get to go back. ): Heard JAL/ANA selling tickets to Japan below S$500! At least distance in the world is becoming smaller as travelling to places is made more affordable and more convenient!
Now, I shall go and live my terribly exciting life doing my homework.
I pray that I'll muster up the motivation to do my homework and to study! I haven't done that in weeks!
And exams are just around the corner.
Fabulous.
Have a lovely and blessed weekend, ya'll (:
Sending love from Japan,
♥, char
