I was thinking of what was left to my previous Tokyo Trip that I haven’t blogged about yet and I realized they were all just these scattered moments captured in pictures on my camera. So I’m going to just put the pictures up and tell you what led up to that moment.
This is a picture I took while we were at Tokyo Disneyland.
I really really love Disneyland. So much that whenever I went I would take a picture of the park that would remind me how beautiful and how happy the place was.
This is the first picture we took at Tokyo Disneyland’s entrance with the JPB Team.
It was the girls’ first time at a Disneyland (except for Elaine who had gone to Hong Kong Disneyland months back).
The group was kinda split on the kind of rides that we wanted to go for. Some of us really liked going on scary rides, some didn’t. I used to not like rollercoasters and all but I overcame my fear some time in university and now I love them! As long as they’re not too extreme of course
Here’s a picture of Splash Mountain. One of those drop rides that we went for. It wasn’t really that bad a drop but the anticipation was fun. You know how it feels like. Like your ride starts going up this steep slope. Then you see the ride in front of you reach the top then drop and the people in it screaming. It’s the anticipation that’s painful. Not so much the drop itself.
Ming on the other hand loves his favourite “tea-cup ride”.You know the kind of ride where you sit in a T-Cup and just spin round and round as fast as you can.
Mike, Ming and I got on one and we spun ours so fast I think we went into the future and back.
At the end of the long day at Tokyo Disneyland, the of us guys just sat on a bench and I had a churros. Gotta love Disneyland churros. They’re yummy.
The whole day was really hot but it had cooled down a bit by the end of the day so we just sat down and basked in the magical Disney atmosphere.
Here’s a picture of the group of us who went.
Xiaxue and Ringo couldn’t stand the heat after a while and they just decided to “fuk it” and go back to Tokyo to shop. Probably at Shibuya 109 or something. You guys remember Shibuya 109 right? The place where no man should ever go with his gf… or risk never coming out again. Really!
Let me refresh your memory. This is Shibuya 109.
If your gf ever suggests you go inside just to “take a quick look”. You say… “NO WAY WOMAN.. U GONNA HAVE TO BEAT ME UNCONSCIOUS AND DRAG ME IN THERE!!!”
Speaking of shopping though. Here are a couple of things I brought back from Tokyo. Pinky and I were looking for stuff to bring back for the Nuffies (apart from yummy Japanese biscuits and all) and we found these cute little things that you hang on your phone.
They come in all shapes, not just this Sumo wrestler here. But it’s special! What’s special about it is it has this little hold in the middle (see the tummy), where you can look inside it and there’ll be a magnified picture of something. Like a picture of Mount Fuji or a picture of a Shrine with the words Japan on it.
It’s not cheap for a little thing like that. Each one costs like RM12-15 or something and I had to buy about 25 of them for the people back in the KL office.
One another thing that I brought back from Tokyo was something Ming gave me. We were at a shrine and there was a shop selling these little charms. There were all sorts of different charms, some for love, some for safety etc etc. Ming bought the both of us one each.
It’s supposed to be a Victory Charm!
So victory baby!
