日本の日　Day 2. (Part I) Permalink
Tuesday, April 20, 2010

Got my arse off the cozy bed as early as 5.30AM in the morning. If you don't know, Tokyo's timing is one hour faster than Singapore's!

We're changing hotels today as well so gotta be up to pack our stuff back into the luggage, wash up, prepare ourselves, etc.

Aizen-sama've got a weird preference of sleeping near the toilet, so in both hotels she chose her beds first. Not like I mind but I should have fought for my rights for fun. D:

Last few pictures at our hotel room :

LOOK AT MY PINK EARMUFFS!

I loved it so much that I was wearing it everyday in Japan, and somehow I got used to the warmth it gave me throughout and felt insecure without it. There are times when I took it off and the feeling was really queasy!

Everyone loved my earmuffs too. It was the limelight everyday.

Buffet style breakfast with different kind of variety. From Japanese to Chinese, from Chinese to Western. It's very sad that I didn't consume much due to my poor appetite.

There was spare time after our breakfast so Nicholas went ahead and took a few pictures of the beautiful scenery just outside the hotel's view!

Instead of venturing out to the cold weather, Aizen-sama and I were playing a fool inside the hotel. When everyone assembled, eyes were onto me.

"Esther, are you sure you are going to wear like that?"

"Eh, you not cold ah?"

"Do you need to go back and change, like wear leggings or anything to cover your legs?"

"WAH SO SHORT AH!"

Hahahahaha! That's because my skirt was short and the weather's supposed to be freezing at about zero degree (it turned to negative at night). Well it's true, it totally blew me away. More on that later.

IT'S RAINING EVERYWHEREEEEEEE!

Raining + Cold Weather = Awesomeness. (We even ate soft served ice cream! But that was another night)

The very nice vending machine. Singapore ones need to look a bit more handsome.

And off we go! My earmuffs were so distinct! It helped during the trip. :P

Anitour mates! The guys were buried behind so you couldn't see them (realised guys like to sit behind buses all the time, a common trait I see), and Jim fiddling with his camera.

Tony looking as energetic as ever.

Bad bad weather!

And we finally arrived at our destination, Nakano City!

Pinku pinku lanterns all over the place! きれい～

We walked to we, Otaku's mini paradise :

NAKANO BROADWAY

Looks like a normal shopping centre? That's because we're on the first storey. The fun begins at the second storey and onwards. But for Aizen-sama, her sole purpose was to shop for clothes so I think she's more attracted to the first storey.

By the way, while walking to Nakano Broadway I can feel my HP decreasing rapidly because it was so cold I can hardly walk, but I have to so that I can keep up. Was cursing myself but at the same time, excited for the upcoming mini paradise that's awaiting my arrival.

Then my tour mates asked me again, "Are you sure you're okay?!"

The umbrella that Driver-san lent me because I left mine in my luggage. =P

Japan cellphones! THEY LOOK REALLY PRETTY IN REAL LIFE!

Wanted to get one of them back to Singapore but I can't use them anyway so I didn't. Comes in a lot of different colours and patterns, can twist and turn as and when you like! Majority of them are flip phones though, and of course the screen isn't as big as our modern ones.

But if I can choose, I'd definitely choose Japan cellphones!

ニッポンの携帯でんわがほしい!

Mandarake - A famous chain store in Japan selling things that we Otakus like.

Brother favourite Kamen Rider!!

Want a PSP or a Nintendo DS? You can have a go at these machines! They're more or less everywhere so if you've got little money but full of confidence, you may want to give it a try. Of course I wouldn't stand a chance at such machines.

:( Which is sad to admit.

ONE-PIECE! I'm listening to "We Are!" now.

Wanted to buy puzzles like that back to waste my time on, but it's quite expensive. Would rather spend the money on more figurines!

More on Brother's favourite Kamen Rider! I actually took these pictures for his viewing pleasure but I haven't showed him yet. Actually he already owned those that's in these pictures so there's no use showing him.. but I want to show him! :/

More figurines~

Cosplay!

Speaking of that, we did プリクラ (known as Neoprints in Singapore) in Japan, Akihabara and it's very different from the ones we have here!

More machines, that's for sure.

Uncountable cute girls crowding the place, that's for sure as well.

But they have cosplay ones as well!! They have this closet with a lot of cosplay costumes and you can choose the character you like, and then wear it to take your neoprints! After that, you may want to return the costume back to the counter.

Awesome and cool isn't it?! I wanted to, I REALLY WANTED TO RENT ONE.

But Aizen-sama, Sherry and Melissa ain't going to rent one so I'll look really weird if I'm the only one in the picture wearing something out of the world.

They have costumes for Aisaka Taiga, Suzumiya Haruhi, Lelouch Lamperouge, Katsura Hinagiku, Hiiragi Kagami, Kuchiki Rukia, and many many more!

From what I see, Aisaka Taiga's uniform and Haruhi Suzumiya's ones are the most popular. I wanttttt! T____T

After we done our shopping for most of us, which would obviously be anime related stuff, we're back to assembling! Bought the most stuff among the rest too, shocked Tony and Mark like hell when they saw my loots. You can't see in the picture 'cos the rest are blocked by the yellow bag.

Here's me daydreaming and Melissa took a shot :

She tagged me this picture on Facebook and captioned it,

"Gathering after looting... There we see Esther and her cute ear muffs"

Told you my earmuffs are cute! Before we set off, Jim patted on my earmuffs and said that he liked it, then on the 4th or 5th night, Nicholas and the rest went missing from our group. Knew what he said?

"Look for the one with pink HEADSET."

Everyone there commented on my pink HEADSET almost everyday~ Told you it was the limelight HAHAHAHAHA.

And also I forgot there's a lot of pictures resources from Facebook so I shall add this picture in since I just found it was tagged to me as well. It was on our first night at Excel Tokyu!

Wanted to complete Day 2 without parts but suddenly I can't find a bunch of pictures that Nicholas took. So will post Part II another day! Soon soon. :)

A sneak preview of Part II :
