Japan Memoirs: Tenjin Matsuri---"Festival of the Gods"

I love being a part of something so many people can relate and enjoy"

- Karlie Kloss -

Tenjin Matsuri --- in Osaka is one of the top three festivals in Japan. This festival started a thousand years ago, it usually began on the 24th and ends on the 25th of July. The said festival is dedicated to Sugawara Michizane of the Tenmangu Shrine, who is said to be the god of learning and art.

Yep, I had to look that one up for history and knowledge purposes. One should know her history first before anything else. ;)

Odori Park, Sapporo, Hokkaido --- Here we are at last! Good job for staying in tune and give yourselves a tap on the back. Thank you for patiently waiting and waiting. So without, further ado--lets go down to business.

The Fast Talk

"In the book of life's questions, the answer is not in the back."

Hey there! Surprised to read another post from me didn't you? Well, lets just say I'm a little inspired. Hence, the post. ;) Just like what the title says. This is Fast Talk (or should it be fast chat?) Anywho, there will be 10 questions that I need to answer and a brief explanation as to why. Ohohoho. 

Miss Misunderstood

"The heart that cares too much for others is always misunderstood."

It's actually true in every sense. Countless experience is deemed necessary for it to be understood. Yet, after all those experiences that was mention, you still wonder if you truly grasp such situation. Ironic isn't it?

City of White---Hokkaido Part 1

"A snow day literally and figuratively falls from the sky---unbidden---and seems like a thing of wonder."

Winter Eat Out!

Cold wind and the bustling of people walking to and fro from the train station is the usual sight in the city of Osaka. People covered with warm coats and scarves walk hurriedly to their destinations. While others, stood in one corner waiting.

That's what we did. 

MM and I were waiting patiently for our friends to arrive and for us to meet up, chat and eat out since it has been such a long time since we last saw each other.  I thought it was only Hide who's going to come, however, I was in for a surprise when another friend of ours, Yukie, came as well. Yay! :D Seems like I wasn't paying attention at all when MM told me about the news. (teheh! >.<) But anyways, I was happy. Now our mission is about to start!!! 

It's 2017 and We're Off To USJ!!

Happy New Year everyone! 

It's 2017!!! :D

How you've been?

It's a brand new year for all of us, yet, it feels like it isn't, isn't it?

I have been a total lazy bum the past year. Either that or I have no motivation whatsoever to put and express my journey here into words. But, that is about to change I guess. I will try my best to deliver and be a good blogger this year. No promises there ehehehe but I will try. Like I said. ;)

Any-who, winter has already begun and I'm shivering as I type this post. Brrr... My gosh... (in a sing song voice) the cold bothered me in some way.  Whew! for a girl from a tropical country, this season is by far the....Brrr....brrrr.... (did you get what I mean?) 

The Rose Garden

Hiyaaa!!! Everyone its Me!!!

Its been 2 months since i last updated my blog and to be practically honest there are so many things that I want to say and want to share to you, readers. But, I can't seem to put them into words (or it could also be I'm just practically lazy this past few months, take your pick. ehehe). Anywho, I did mention that I will be posting late, didn't I? :p

A New Journey

Having jitters is by far an understatement when it comes to flying across the country 1,908 miles away from home. I guess, it all comes down to mentally preparing oneself many months ago, but, it doesn't change the fact that no matter how hard you try to prepare yourself mentally and emotionally, it'll all comes down to you crying like a river especially when it is time for you to depart and say your temporary adieus  to your family. I know, I did and I missed them the instant they were gone from my sight. I still do.
