Tokyo Disneyland revisit

At a perfume shop inside Disneyland yesterday, where chikako's friend is working at and along came in two tourists, looked around and started to ask her friend something in broken english (from whatever bits of words that floated into my ears, i couldn't understand them at all).

I assumed her friend could speak since she's working at disneyland. Must have at least some basic level of understanding for communication mah, right? (even though i also couldn't get them)

lol. as we were looking on, chikako asked me to help her friend. Stepped forward, took a glance and they looked chinese so i asked if they needed any help. They looked surprised and asked me why could I speak mandarin -_-;;;; Told them i'm Singaporean xD

Turned out they wanted to look for mens' perfume... And also they were looking for a phone booth that could make international calls. I felt like an interpreter, albeit a failed one coz when chikako's friend replied through me, I relaid to them in japanese and then realising my mistake, hastily corrected it back to mandarin :x

After a while they even looked around in the shop and asked me what the products were (since they couldn't read). Chikako reminded me to tell them that i was also a visitor there.... errr.

It was an interesting encounter. She said, oh you've made yourself useful ne! *laugh*


30th anniversary celebration. And also my second halloween at Disneyland!


The friend said there are hidden mickey(s) in here. Look for them!


Forgot who took this photo. Grainy is good hahaha.


It was very hot. But luckily less hot than in summer. That lens flare(?) makes for an interesting effect on the photo.


Here's a cute Eeyore which g said "dusty", meaning "no buy" Orz

Every time i go to Disneyland i must fight the urge to buy one of these dust-collectors or those memorabilia that are limited to the celebration period (like that vampire mickey or mickey-in-a-coffin-shaped-chocolate-tin-can)


Only bought these, as usual. I should have gotten more!!! I love rice crackers and anything to do with Alice in Wonderland.

Nowadays i make it a point not to buy those in metal cans. Nice but piling up at home :x And since I'm not like "on holiday" like many foreigner san who visit disneyland, I have lost the "MUST SWEEP THEM ALL INTO THE PURCHASE BASKET LIKE IT'S THE END OF THE WORLD!!!!" compulsion. I guess this is a good thing?

I think i want to go again this december with g for christmas/new year. The last time we went for christmas was a few years ago. Maybe disneysea instead ^_^ (← secret thoughts)

Twenty Six of Them

Mid-long entry ahead. These were random photos, a selected 26, taken after the day of the trip down to kameari until today, and tweeted :x But tweeting doesn't look like it stores for reference. So might as well post them up. Wanted to entitle it "A normal week in Tokyo" but it's more than a week. Argh. forget it then lol!
And I still have a day of bbq pics not done yet. Sighs.


Spotted this when i entered the restroom. Plucking your head off and kicking it. Fun.


One of the typical lunch sets I have everyday. i get so sick eating them all the time T_T So cold and hard...
I know it's nice. But try having it for weeks or months.


Was too lazy to copy so I snapped a pic of this. It's crazy.


Free music as I was going home. Stayed around for a while coz there was some cutie among the audience and i was looking in that direction instead :x


New tea shop opened at my place. Opening discount! I love tea!


Sad一人ご飯@Mac. Is there prawn burger in your local McDonalds? The prawns quite puripuri!


I tried one of the two teas i bought. Really good. Must go get the mango oolong tea when i finish.


Luggage + Hamamatsucho station = Feeling of going back home.
But too bad it was empty. I was just there to collect some food stuff dad got his subordinates to pass to me. Supposedly 10kg of them. They felt extra heavy when you have to carry them up and down stairs!


Ippudo's 2nd flavour instant ramen out! This time a collaboration with another famous chain. I didnt post pic of the 1st flavour right… Will remember to do so.


Jojoen, a famous yakiniku shop often patronised by famous tv people, came out with their own bento! Packaging looks like an eki-ben right? (eki-ben = bento one buys at train stations and eats on trains)
I love my sugarless gogo no koucha red tea. Only in japan (and perhaps china) they can sell real tea and still earn money and not sugared water labelled as tea.


The sauce + meat. Heavenly.


This. Please try if you see it selling. VERY GOOD. Suntory's sweet plum drink. Very refreshing. This was my third bottle :x


Someone left this box in one corner beside me. I wonder what instrument's hiding inside. Mysterious boxes make me imaging nasty stuffs.


Coco Ichibanya's takeaway lunch. Really good. Does the Coco Ichibanya in singapore provide takeaways like this?


Drunk man posing for the morning at the station after a night of drinking. Probably took the first train home and knocked out already. He's the best already. Some look worse. But still, みっともない. Seriously, there's too many such cases here. Donno what's the problem.


I am LOL-ing this. A real recording company. It does leave an impression though, at least for those who understand.


Bought kit-kats since i was peckish. And i couldn't resist trying the marron one!! Kitkat seldom goes wrong. Unless it's the chili or wasabi or soy sauce ones… :x


One of the days where i wore my favourite robot out.


Accident at station. No go. Waited for 1hr inside train and still stuck.


So took taxi coz there's no other train that goes home nor did they provide alternate bus for us! The wait made me missed my gym wtf!


Passing by the second last station to my apartment. I hesitated to look at the fare.


Final fare. *Ting Ting Ting!!* About $91 gasp! :x


Cabbage patch outside my window across the road growing fine.


Was having cravings for ohsho gyoza. This diy ohsho gyoza shall do.


It didn't look too bad right?


Bought pumpkin roll cake and pumpkin soy milk (no pic) in "celebration" of Pumpkin Day.
The pumpkin soy milk was weird but the cake wasn't bad! And i feel pathetic I'm at home and not dressed up for some party hur hur.
