Day Seven - The Beginning of Crazy Chiong-ing Ard Tokyo
it's time to say goodbye to the rest of the group. while they make their way back to singapore, we embark on our trip in tokyo. yes! the tour leader who is just 3yrs older than me and this is his holiday job! i want this kind of holiday job too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! even though i'd probably spend more than i earn, but still!!!!!!!!!! it's travelling!!!!!!!!! argh. for the remaining 4 nights in tokyo, our accomodation was hotel new otani. it's a wonderful hotel, wonderful service, wonderful location, wonderful everything. we were given the option to check in early but it was to a smoking room. so we left our luggage with the hotel and left for a very exciting trip :)
first up. satisfy our growling stomachs. off to shibuya for the rotating sushi place. it's reputed to be cheap and good. and they did not disappoint. each plate (like those in sakae sushi) cost only 105yen (S$1.25). and the seafood was SO fresh!!!!!!!!! the chef was really nice too. we were like two blur ppl, speaking a language foreign to him, not knowing what to take. so he'd make stuff specially for us. and all the things were SO nice!!!!!! totemo oishi desu!!!!!!! i think he got the sense of satisfaction to see us to happy with the food and we kept going like.. oishi!!!! yummy!!! etc... hahaha... think ppl at the other side weren't too happy that we were getting the extra attn cos they had to order what they wanted while he served us without us saying anything :p

shopping at shibuya was wonderful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 109 building is a must go for the young crowd. bu bought clothes while i attacked the earrings. their earrings are SO nice!!! and it's not that ex too... about $15-$24 per pair of pretty, good quality earrings. totally shiok!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! saw a couple of tops but the no-trying-of-tops rule stopped me from buying. i need to know the cutting and see if it fits lah... one regret there, didn't buy THAT dress. it was very pretty, but what stopped me... the price (it was S$70. actually come to think about it, that wasn't expensive!!!!!!) and i had to wear it with tights cos it was very very short and i.. am too lazy to wear tights...

off to harajuku!!!!!! to go to the Burberry's Blue Label flagship store. bought a tee of my dad there. it's so nice!!!!!!!!! and not too ex considering that it's Burberry's. walked around a little. went to gap but decided it was stupid to go there and buy sth from gap even though their range is alot better than what we have in sg!

and then had an early dinner!!!!!! off to Apple Tree for omurice. it's supposedly a famours store. it's really small. we had to go down a narrow flight of stairs to get to the very very small shop. it's only had about 9 two-seater tables and barely any walking space. but it was really nice. not too ex too... only 870yen each (S$11). it's cheap by japan's standards. the quality of food was superb!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! pity it's not demiglace sauce (like what was shown in lunch queen. heh) but the tomato and dunno what the other sauce is... was really good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

okonomiyaki-omurice. hahaha.. this was really good. and there were little treasures inside. with rice, octopus, veg..... wonderful. the sauce, yummy!

a very satisfied customer :)

off to roppongi hills to have a wonderful view of tokyo at night and of cos.. the tokyo tower. tallest structure in tokyo. the city view :)

and we had our most not-worth-the-money drink at a cafe on the top level. it was 1000yen per person just to enter and we both had drinks of about 700yen. so it was about S$21 just to sit there for non-alcoholic drinks. yeah.. we both had juice. we need to be sober to get back to the hotel in one piece.and back to our hotel by their very confusing train system. actually it wasn't that bad. they just have many many lives that's all. the sign boards were very helpful!!!!!!!!! the wonderful-est thing happened. our luggage was already in our rooms by the time we got back to check in. their service, immaculate. oh yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the day passed too quickly. but we were all damn tired after walking around so much........ :p that's why japanese are so slim. they walk a lot.

You and Me

what day is it
and in what month
this clock never seemed so alive
I can't keep up
and I can't back down
I've been losing so much time

cause it's you and me and all of the people
with nothing to do
nothing to lose
and it's you and me and all of the people
and I don't know why
I can't keep my eyes off of you

all of the things that I want to say
just aren't coming out right
I'm tripping inwards
you got my head spinning
I don't know where to go from here

cause it's you and me and all of the people
with nothing to do
nothing to prove
and it's you and me and all of the people
and I don't know why
I can't keep my eyes off of you

there's something about you now
I can't quite figure out
everything she does is beautiful
everything she does is right

you and me and all of the people
with nothing to do
nothing to lose
and it's you and me and all of the people
and I don't know why
I can't keep my eyes off of you

you and me and all of the people
with nothing to do
nothing to prove
and it's you and me and all of the people
and I don't know why
I can't keep my eyes off of you

what day is it
and in what month
this clock never seemed so alive
