Before you read this post, do note that you have to be tall, as the sign here says "No shorties allowed". Just kidding.


Well, the Floating Garden Observatory was mind you, cold. I mean on the ground it's already 14 degrees, what do you think is the temperature up there, 40 floors above ground?

MEAN MACHINE


Floating ... GARDEN? There are no plants on the roof top, NONE AT ALL.


Nice models, but Gunpla is still better. =D


Mascot........................ Enough said......................


Some guy stole a shot of me!
----------

Pink Train...


On the left, it's a bus stop sign? I mean it tells you when the next bus is coming etc. On the right, it's a parking lot machine or something like that.


Look carefully. Part of the mirror ain't fogged up! There's a heating element behind the mirror! Neat eh? Yes, that's my hotel bathroom.


See some sparkling thing on the right, that's my breath, filled with CO2. =D


Vending Machines EVERYWHERE in Japan. They even sell hot canned drinks in Japan! There is even a cigarette vending machine, the one on the right of the second row is such a machine.


Relive your childhood...


Multi-storey, believe it or not, carpark. There are elevators that move the car up and down!


I drank coffee EVERYDAY in Japan. I mean there's free coffee from the dispenser at the hotel lobby! =D (Yes, for those who don't know what a dispenser is, it's the first picture.)


Random crap...


Yummy YUCKS! Vege paus...


ULTRAMAN! Some toy gallery near Osaka Universal Studios. There's a sign that says "No Photography, Videos etc etc in the Museum." I didn't realise until I posted this =P


Getting ready for Christmas...


MORE RANDOM CRAP.
----------

NOW THIS IS THE COOLEST THING EVER. =D

That's right! It's a toilet urinal!!

What's even dumber is that when you stand near it, the urinal starts moving up and down, and playing some retarded music whilst making gargling noises. Mind you, we had a good laugh. I'll see if I can post the video here.

Sorry that it's like horizontal...

GUNDAM!!


Gaming Corner... A whole level of Gundam Arcade Games... =D


GUNPLA! A whole section of the toys/hobbies level in the department store is dedicated to gunpla!!!

Shinsaibashi Street, a LOOOOOOOOOOONG shopping street where you practically can't see the end.


Yea, it's a big crap crab.


See? I can't see the end!!


Ash Trays... in MacDonalds! MacDonalds in Japanese is Makudonarudo. Try saying that 5 times, c'mon I dare you.

At some wet market...

Well, I'm too lazy to sort the rest of the pictures. So I'm just chunking the exchange trip and cool stuff I saw in Japan into one post. =p Yeah, I'm a lazy fag... (And this means I can move on to pictures from Missionary Conference in Cebu! Cheers! *Don't forget my modeling kits =p*)

First, exchange trip.


You gotta change to slippers (provided for you) before you enter parts of the school. Very much like how we take off our shoes before you go into the music room etc, just that you wear slippers...


School principal on left, Mr Leo (one of my teachers) on the right.


Tea Ceremony...


Judo


Rugby


ART CLASS!


For a certain Xiaomeimei


Their band. I tell you, the music was like jarring and my ears hurt like crazy after being inside the room. The room is SMALL, very SMALL. I mean it can't even fit 10 people comfortably, and they squeezed 20 of us in there...


Class..... English class to be exact...

Update: I'll post more soon...

1. Shinsabashi Street, a nice LOOOOOOOOOOONG shopping street...
2. Gundam Corner =D
3. Floating Garden Observatory. COLD PLACE.
   

Look Forward. =D

Yes, I'm back...... I'm back from my vacation in Philippines and my church's missionary conference. That's why I delayed uploading my Japan Trip photos. To add on, my computer has a super slow upload speed (onto Photobucket), coupled with the stupid fact that my computer doesn't seem to read my camera via USB (it only works like once a week -.-). So I'm gonna buy a card reader at only $10 at Sim Lim Square. Or, one could give me one for Christmas (*hint hint!)

Anyways, without further ado (cue for drumroll), Osaka Castle pictures!







This golden carp with a dragon's head is placed on the top of castles as they believe that this thing will prevent fires. Reminds me of the merlion >.<


The pigeons are fat... really fat...


Japan is beautiful... I wanna go there again. =(


FIRE... it's actually petroleum jelly which was burning under my lunch pot. =D


Lastly, what's Elmo doing there?! o.O
----------

OK, updates end here. 2 reasons.
1. My computer has a freaking slow upload speed. These photos, took me the whole morning, say 4 hours, to upload...
2. I have an irritating brother whom I can't stand who has been bugging me to let him play Legacy GunZ.

OK, as one might have noticed, I have yet to upload all the pictures from the Japan Trip. The reason is that my computer is too darn slow and can't seem to read my camera/ USB cable connection. (Yes, I don't have a card reader in my com, shows how antique my com is. I'm planning to get a card reader... SOON...)

Next, I also have pictures from Missionary Conference. So just keep a look-out for those...
