welcome to the world of internet! I love this hotel.. this hotel has Internet! I love my brother.. my brother booked this hotel... yes yes yes~ I love everyone!

**************

yes yes yes! I didn't eat rice in the morning!

but brother decided to tell me that I should really do something bout my fats .... again with that very serious look on his face.. darn.. so we woke up early to go to the station so that we can use the internet... managed to send 2 bags to Tokyo so we didn't have to carry them around.. =)

comp was at the tourists information center.. so this guy volunteering there strike up a very polite conversation.. after I was done with the comp.. he very politely asked me to speak to some other volunteers... this bunch of junior high students were doing their volunteering work at the center.. so yes.. I was invited to speak to them.. heh.. but the thing is.. if I spoke too fast they wouldn't understand.. so I ended up speaking in slow motion.. I must say, they do speak well for their standard... yup! sigh I tried asking for their names but I only remember one - Haruka - the others were too complicating to remember... weird thing is.. I remember their ambition! hahha.. they asked what was my dream.. geee.. I was very tempted to tell them what I dreamt of the night before.. heh.. but they'd probably think I'm crazy...

anyway.. 5 of them had different ambitions.. fashion designer, piano teacher, tennis player, nothing special, vet... when was the last time I had ambition?? hm... I could feel the youth and innocence.. and the strong belief that the can achieve what they want.. hm.. since when have I lost that kinda enthusiasm? since when have I been forced to compromised by reality? sigh.. youth... geee... I make myself sound so old.. its just that as you grow you realise that some dreams are meant to be what they are..

so yes.. the old man translated what I said.. apparently they couldn't understand what I was trying to say.. so I had a few repeated questions.. like what are the attractions of Singapore.. and do I like Beppu.. hm... strange.. I couldn't think of the attractions except Sentosa.. and the zoo.. the night safari... but hey.. its nothing compared to Beppu.. coz they have wild safari... so yes.. one boy asked me.. where is Singapore? oh geee... I could have fainted... my map reading is bad! a few years ago I could even find Taiwan! so yes.. I desperately tried to explain that its near the equator.. then I realised that they don't know whats the equator.. so I told them its beside Malaysia.. geee.. I felt so dumb.. but it was a nice experience.. =)

fact : 10 million people visit Beppu every year

Fact : all of them volunteer so they dun get paid... hm.. how nice of them..

***********************

took a 3 hour train to Hiroshima..

brother was being paranoid bought dying of radiation..

daddy was saying that there're no trees here coz of radiation... but erm.. the bombing was almost 60 years ago... hm..

me... paranoid of going to wrong places.. ah~~ we all have our paranoia's..

************************

the hotel is beautiful.. and have I already mentioned?? they have internet??? wahahahah~ yeah!!!

met Paul online just now.. Lucky!!! =)

ohhhh one more thing!! Kazuki finally typed something I could understand!! hahahaa.. *happy*

********************

took a trip down to another looked - very - impressive temple.. morale of the story? don't trust the guide book too much.. sigh.. it was just a temple.. very very old one.. ok not too bad.. at least dad liked it..

went down to this shopping district - Hondori... gee.. its huge!!! spent bout 2 hours there and we only managed to walk one side of the Hondori ... bought some clothes there too! =) they have strange changing places coz you have to take off your shoes when you change.. weird... but I guess its to let people know that its in use... clever... anyway Hondori is only a small part of that district.. so.. yes.. its huge!!!

had lovely dinner.. once again I refrained from eating rice.. goodie~

**********************

once again we explored around the hotel... tried walking to this big shopping center.. but we ended up walking 3 rounds around the same place.. then this very friendly sales gal directed us.. even to the extent that she very nearly walked us to that place... nice.. but sadz... it was after closing time...

so we went back to the station.. bought some Jap comics... which I have yet to read... oo.. the mags here are good!!! Clark!!! Keanu!!! Beckham!! was drooling over them... hahhaa.. didn't buy though.. =(

************************

Brother bought a comb thats supposedly good for my hair.. hm.. heh.. ok so my hair is in quite a bad state ... but this morning clever me used my conditioner! so its combable now.. hahaha... plus I bought a nice comb and conditioner! it should work fine for my hair! =)

**********************

brother bugging me to get off the comp.. heh.. have to plan for tomorrow or I'm so dead.. geee..

nightz~

*******************
