Japan.. the second time around!
January 27 - April 24, 2008
Well, it's been 2wks since I arrive in Japan together with Steph (my roommate), Raymond and Sir Kit. Tonette followed a week after we fly to Japan. We will be here again for 3 long months. Will be missing Carlo and my friends. Sigh. We just have to do finish our project as well as start a new one I guess. Well, that's work. Nothing else to say.
It's winter season here. The average temperature is from 2-7 degrees. I'm wearing 3 layers of clothes: a thermal wear, regular clothes, and a thick jacket. At first it felt awkward wearing those padded or bubble jacket as they say, but if you're already here and experiencing winter season, you'll be thankful you're wearing one. If not, you'll be freezing to death. I usually wear complete accessories less the bonnet.. the scarf, gloves and jacket.. I'm even wearing tights just to keep me warm. But sometimes, when the wind blows hard, I still freeze!!
Anyway, it's also my first time to stay in DOI Mansion coz last year I stayed in Luminous hotel. It's an apartment with complete home appliance less the TV. Fortunately we have our laptops with us. Here's a sneak peak of our room.
Picture of Me and Steph before going to Office.
I have no adventure yet, very busy during weekdays and time to rest, wash clothes and clean the room during the weekends. I did went to Church last Wednesday to hear mass coz it's Ash Wednesday. And then it struck me.. we will be having our Lenten Season here in Japan. Maundy Thursday and Good Friday, we will be working in the Office?!?!? waaaaahh.. I realized that there are lots of Holidays or Events in the Philippines that we would not enjoy. Sigh. Let me enumerate, Ash Wednesday, Valentines Day (oh no!!!), Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, Black Saturday and Easter Sunday (wwwwwwwaaaahhh, the egg hunting!!! huhuhu..), Company Anniversary in FTSP, Team Building in Enchanted Kingdom, Sportsfest in FTSP. wwwaahh.. pretty much huh?! We're stuck here til April.. we just have to accept it.
What else happened this 2 wk stay? hhmmm.. Besides work, err.. nothing else? I went strolling in Motomachi after mass last Sunday then found a great trench coat in Benetton. It's on SALE! From 16800 Yen to 7800 Yen. Beat that?! However, didn't bother to buy even if I really wanted to coz I can't use it in the Philippines. Unless I'm going to Japan or better yet the UK or US every year maybe then I won't have second thoughts buying it. I also found lots of boots here. Look below:
Then I took a photo of myself inside the Comfort Room. haha!
Didn't buy anything, just walked and hoping that will burn some calories. It's been 2wks and I gained weight already?!?!?!? wwwwwwwwwwaaahhhhh.. It's hard to lose weight you know.. sigh.. well, need to think of an alternative to lose weight. hehe.. I can't starve myself here, I need those for our project.. I bet no one can be productive if he/she is hungry, right?
By the way, I had my Nihongo Speech last Friday (2008-02-08) after the morning exercise. It's simple but I did practice the night before but still I didn't deliver it well. At least they did understand. Hehe. It's an anything under the sun speech. I talked about Cooking.
So simple huh?! But it's hard to deliver it in Japanese!!! Nosebleed!!! hahaha.. my hands are both cold after that. Sigh. Need to prepare another speech for the next 2 wks. It's a rotation basis. Next will be Steph. I wonder what is her topic. Oh well, she's already good in Japanese language. No need to worry. hehe. :)

私の話題は料理です。
本当は私は料理できません。
しかし、現在は昼ごはんは料理を必要がありません。
だから、私は料理です。
でも、私の料理は失敗です。
先週は、もやしでエビを料理しました。
ですけど、調味は置くのを忘れました。
味がありません。だから、パンとミルクだけは食べます。
多分、フィリピンへ行く前に、私はすでに料理することができます。

My topic is about cooking.
I really don't know how to cook.
However, currently I need to cook for lunch.
That's why I cooked.
But my cooking has failed.
Last week, I cooked shrimp with bean sprouts.
I forgot to put the seasoning therefore, it has not taste.
And so, I only ate bread and milk.
Perhaps, before going back to the Philippines, I can already cook.
