Woo.. competition day, as usual woke up and breakfast. Grab robot. Go up bus. Travel to hotel where the competition is held. haha fast forward.

The battleground. The route where all robots will be tested on.

This picture is not cheap haha, because Mr Yeak told me before that not many people can take images with him, i paid 2k plus for this chance =X

My team and my robot. Team 505! and...we got into the 1st runner up =)

Us with prizes. Quite interesting stuffs haha

After that it was a long talk that lasted for 3-4 hrs zzzzzz and free and easy.

Here's something that is really interesting about japan. the following images are taken in town and its their canal! There are kois and the water is clear and clean!

Something delicious, this is the thing we spend 1 hr in town to look for but cant find! today we found it cause it was closed yesterday night =.=

We found Daifugu! Stawberry moochi! it is so heavenly haha Thanks Jun for the intro xD

Hmm , today there's nothing much happened actually, spent most of the time in the day working on the robot itself. Except. this in the morning.

As usual, i woke up and went to bath BUT today was exceptionally cold! so after bathing i decide to on my com and I see this!! 1 degrees!

After that work work work work work. at around 6, me Wilson and Kenneth went to town! looking for something called erm.. daiguku i think but walked around for 1 hour still cant find haha so we settle down for a bowl of Yoshinoya since its time to go back soon.

It might look the same.. BUT when you put it in your mouth..woooo~~~~~~~~~ you wouldnt believe that the ones in Singapore are branches lol

After that at night we have another Kimono show! like yesterday but i didn't take any pictures yesterday haha.

Two kimono girls, one on the left is from Hong Kong and the right is from Japan =) the one in the middle is Jun from Eng sch.

Well today had to wake up much more early at 6am. Had breakfast and set off at 7 30. It was a 3 hrs ride to Nagasaki! >.< but. as usual i fell asleep haha. so 3 hrs passed quickly.

First we went to the Mitsubishi factory but they do not allows us to take pictures inside it, except in the museum. Not really that excited about it as i don't really know what those things are i only know they are gigantic turbines lol

Afterwards we went to visit a peace statue which is built after world war 2

This is the Mitsubishi museum

Our lunch boxes! xD oiiishhhiiiii!

Me with the peace statue! The wind is super strong and horribly cold lol its 7 degrees there!!

After that we visit the bomb museum, its a really sad scene to see all those victims in the incident and after it.

Sakura or cherry blossoms are just so nice. I'm felt so fortunate when my Japanese friend told me that they only blossom once a year and only lasts for 1 - 2 weeks. It's so romantic if you can lie below one with your loved one =X

hmm maybe next year i should bring one haha

Here's photos of sakura trees

This is what weather you can find in Japan LOL

Sakura at night =)

Now is 7:36 am here in Japan haha and i had just came out from the bathroom, when i woke up i was hesitating whether i should go for a bath as the temperature now is probably less then 10 degrees as it is even raining! yea, i went for a bath as i have this habit of bathing before i go out everyday. The feeling is like you dipping into a freshly chilled coke before the heater had start up lol

Yesterday's sleep was not bad although i'm not used to sleeping on a bag of beans haha so i use my jacket as an additional layer.

Well, I dreamt of a similar dream again like sometime back. Although I hope it would come true but yea. hopes are still hopes lol just let it be i guess.

I'm waiting for my breakfast~ at 8am lol

Ok, blog again tonight xD

1. At the Changi Airport Terminal 3


Meeting point at T3! Where my family + Ting & Justin Bro, Mr Yeak & Mr Lim came to send me off =X



Free charger for almost everything at T3!!



Haha after checked in we have to go to the boarding gate which is A20. Wow T3 is just so big and so long that we have to take a tram just to get to the other end! The shops in T3 are just too crazy, the cheapest shop? Cheers LOL the rest are so exp!



In the tram..~~



Haha took this on the plane. my ticket!, SIA will always be SIA, it doesnt took us long to get onto the plane and flew off lol. On the plane is service is really good! compare to the other flights that I had taken before. They actually serve you hot towels, light snacks and even drinks anytime. Even have an in-built system where you can watch movies, shows,play game etc etc.

I watched Twilight on the plane haha not bad but yea. Vampires and i watched "The day that the earth stood still." although i had watched it before but again its still nice haha.

The flight lasted for almost 6 hours, cant really sleep but fell asleep for alittle while and..breakfast is served!

2. At KNTC

We were ferried to KNTC by a bus for almost 1.5 hours.. took alot of photos and again fell asleep haha. too tired i guess.

When we left the airport, the wind...I love this weather haha I love cold countries!

Upon reaching the school, we were given our rooms in the dormitory.

They had no lift so we have to carry our own language up 5 stories..and this is my room for the next 8 days! lol


I made my bed lol! notice the tiny white thing on the left? its my pillow =X its small i know and its made out of beans i think.



Corridors of the dormitory =)



Toilets

Washing area~

3. Eating great food!

This is japanese style cabonara, which caused me 499 yen which is about 8 singapore bucks >.<

BUT! it's really worth it I had never ate a cabonara that is so delicious! so nice! I made me want to come back for more haha.

4. Outside on the streets

Well there's actually a break before we have our briefing so we decided to take the tram and go downtown for some shopping as well as getting me a lan cable as i had forgotten to bring one =X

This is us on the tram! 

5. Cherry Blossoms!
