Japan hour

Why must the marital status be printed on the visa?? Sigh..
I will be flying off with 34 students and 2 colleagues to Tokyo for study trip.
We will be visiting animation studios and schools in tokyo, as well as DISNEYLAND! But the best bit is, I can visit my FRIEND who is from one of the animation studios.
Well, I only managed visit a few attractions in Tokyo Disneyland previously. There were always long queues to rides and attractions. Even buying a hotdog took me 15 minutes to queue.:(

This picture was taken at Christmas day, Shirakaba ryokan. We went there for skiing. We had nothing better to do at night and so my japanese friends dressed me up like one of the pop stars and did her favourite pose. (In case you can’t find me, I am right in the middle with a weird hairstyle)
This trip is all about WORK, hence it is posted under WORK instead. It is going to be challenging handling 34 students in TOKYO. Hopefully they will behave, listen to instructions and remember them in heart. The last thing I want is to hunt for them in Tokyo. Sigh..
The weather has changed this year. It is still going to be as cold as 10°C in Tokyo this friday. I have learned my lesson from my Hong Kong trip last month. I underestimated the weather and was almost chilled to death.
These were what people wore..


And me Audrey Hepburn wanna-be…at 5°C. Well done..:(

Nonetheless, I look foward to a fruitful and enjoyable 9 days with my students and colleagues.

Oh, the things I want to get are mainly singles/albums of a few Japanese artistes, one being Shimatani Hitomi’s latest single that will be released on the 19th of March.
