Oh!!!!!!!!! remembered a few entries ago, i was cursing that my blog entry was accidentally wiped off and i was too lazy to write again? The blogspot actually saved a draft copy of it and i just discovered this function today. Therefore, i managed to retrieve that lost entry.. Yay!!!!!!!!! $th blog entry for today.. I am setting a record!!!!!!!!!
Here it goes................
Finally have some time to show u guys some pics of my recent Tokyo pics... Well Tokyo as i will say, is another big city in Asia. Well maybe it's a better city compared to others. I think there;s more things to see, more buzz and vibe about this place. Another thing i liked about it is that i do not feel that stressed in it compared to other cities like those in china/bangkok/hong kong or even Singapore. The main reason for me is because the traffic is not as bad as those that i mentioned. Cars hardly horned at all, and almost all the cars are pretty quiet. Drivers are sooo courteous and always gives way to pedestrians. Try Hong Kong and u will know the hassle and bustle of the traffic. Try any city in china and u will hear car horns every second. try Bangkok and u will know the fumes of the vehicles..
Well, Tokyo is really an eye-opener for me. Tons of things to see and places to eat. I was in Akihabara and i actually had a headache after a while because it was a huge assault on my vision. The types of electronics they have there is simply amazing. I was like stuck in the head-phones section for quite a while because, i have never seen so many brands and models of headphones begin displayed for testing. Oh, not to mentioned my virgin foray into a porn dvd shop.. I tell u, it;s 7 stories of PORN DVDS!!! yah i was amazed and awed.. Feels like every girl in japan must had been a porn star. Heh. Ok i take that back. Anyway, there;s so much dvds with tantalising cover pictures that i felt so warm with blood rushing to both my heads. Hahah.. So i did not stayed long inside, if not i might have blood gushing out of my nose.
Ppl there are courteous and never was i once been treated in a rude manner by anyone. I see that almost all jobs, from the menial to the office ones are done by Japanese. I saw young male and female cleaners/sweepers.Ask any young Singaporean to do jobs like these and they'll ran as far as possible, leaving them to "foreign talents" to do it. In fact, the only foreign talents/workers i saw there are the Nigerians club bouncers. Well maybe some of the workers could be from other countries, but at least they blended in, not like in Singapore where it;s so obvious and easy to spot foreign talents among ourselves. Oh i actually have 2 groups of friends who are thee in Tokyo, So i have the time to meet them up for dinner over 2 separate occasions, which is nice. And i tell u, the world is so freaking small, i actually bumped into an ex colleague in a cafe, which is not easy, cos Tokyo is so big, add to that that the ex colleague also know my friend whom i had dinner with. How;s that for coincident!!!!
I would say Tokyo is worth 3 to 4 days of your tour time, and i believed it'll be more fun to get out of Tokyo to see other sights of japan. I would love to go back there again.
