Updates for the week!
(Wednesday, March 31, 2010/10:22 PM)
Whew... It has been 3 hectic days of settling in my dorm. I finally understood my mum's feelings as a dedicated house-maker despite being tied down by a stressful job. It's just... crazy... I made 3-4 trips to the supermarket to buy everything I need for my 4 months of stay, and there are still a few things which I've overlooked and I gotta get it soon. (=.=)
The Indonesian girl who looks like Terri *LOL*! Okay... Maybe not on photos but when I met her, my first impression was that she looks like Terri :P
The bubbly half-Spanish half-Japanese girl which I mentioned in the previous post is right beside me :)
My Singaporean friend studying in the same university takes quite good shots!
We should transcend beyond a 'zi-pai' mentality and help one another take good shots of one another! :)
Probably one of the last time I'll be taking photos of sakura cos' it'll be falling off soon... :(
Beside me is Charlene, an outgoing and approachable girl also studying under the same course as I am. Beside her is Elaine, the Singaporean girl who goes to Fukuoka Harvest Church with me (and took my photos shown above).
And that's Reiko, a Singaporean who married a Japanese. Incredibly funny and motherly, kinda reminds me of KC's mum. :) Haha, I can't wait to eat her laksa when her mother visits her in May, together with hebi and laksa paste!
The guy behind is Chuu Yong, a guy living in Fukuoka for years as a translator and graduate student. He's *gasp* 40, but he looks like he's in his early 30s. Great guy to talk to, had dinner with him after the sakura-viewing.

I was over-stricken with dismay when I realized there are so many Singaporeans in Fukuoka than I had expected, cos' I wanted to escape the Singaporean culture and totally immerse myself in the Japanese culture.
But looking back, I'm grateful to know these people cos' I feel that God placed them specifically in my life to bless me and take me to heights which I never dream I would attain. Esp. since Elaine has better knowledge of the church settings here, and Chuu Yong can definitely offer me valuable advice if I wanted to stay in Japan for the long term.
WOOHOO! Rilakuma! Cute :)
KC bro, look what I bought LOL!
:)))
Alright, Jon Tan, u can go OMG right now :P

Gotta go pack my stuff and wake up early tomorrow, so I'll bid you guys farewell for now! ... But not for long... :)
