Hmmm..3 days ago marked a month since I reached Japan.:)

It has been a great month for me.Sometimes when I walk along the street,looking outside from the seat in my class,or when I'm dreaming in class,I have the feelign like this : wow..I'm in Japan now..Still can't quite believe it though..

I joined basketball club last week.Had been to their practice twice,and will go again after typing this post.The first hour,didn't even touch the ball.Only footwork practices,mainly for defense.2 hour we do passing,layup etc...final hour is game time but only for 10 mins...:(

Well,since I had gained weight and I know I wouldn't jogg or make myself sweat when I7m free,I decided to join.Wonder how long can I stand the practices?4 days a week,3 hours each.Hmmm...

Golden Week is coming.My college have 4 days break,from Saturday till Tuesday.If I don't have any work to do,might just go walk around by myself.Either 神戸（Kobe) or 姫路（Himeji).For my friends who are going for GW gathering,have fun!

A blessing in disguise？

　This incident happened 2 weeks ago and due to various reasons,I can only post bout it now.:)

　As you guys know,I'm quite proud with my spectacle,the blue one.Love it lots.It has been with me for the past 2 years.I bought it in England Optical,Tesco Klang back then.And still waering it very often.

Then,I came to Japan,very excited.On 7th of April,my first day in college,I had PJ class..(forgot what it is in English d).Therefore..

TADA!!

Not so different with the previous one la..other than it is in red colour.blood red *.*

Well why did I say it is a blessing in disguise for me?Even though I had to fork out a sum of money,ride 30 minutes of bicycle to optical shop...It made me and my friends here got closer.Hah!!And I appreciate that.This are the words came out from the guy who threw the ball on my face.Nice one right!

Like that lo..Will never play basketball with my specs on again..

Earthquake

2 nights ago,I experienced the first earthquake in my whole 19 years-7 months life.After finishing my homework,I was ready to go to bed.As I fell asleep on my warm and comfortable bed,I felt my body was shaking.feeling weird,got up and I think : is this an earthquake?hmm..still blurr,got a shocked suddenly and somewhere from my mine shouting : YEAH DUDE IT IS AN EARTHQUAKE!

Shocked,and a bit panicked,I got up and walked to my tutor's place.

僕　：　大槻。地震だぜ。
大槻（眠そうに）　：　何？
僕　：　地震！感じないの？
大槻　：　そうなの？
僕　：　ほんまだ。ほらさっき揺れてた。ちょっと待っててまた来るかも。

何秒後

僕　：　ほらきたきた。
大槻　：　あら。。そうだ。
僕　：　どうしよう？
大槻　：　まあ。。大丈夫や。
僕　：　そっか。。まあ。。もうないよね。寝ようか。

translation

me : dude,earthquake!
tutor : is it?
me : yeah.can't you feel it?
tutor : really?
me : yeah.it was shaking just now..let's wait it might come again.

few seconds later

me : see!its shaking!!
tutor : oo..really le..
me : what should we do now?
tutor : it's fine.no problem.
me : is it..k la.goodnight.

　Next day,I checked the info bout it and this is what I got :


Last night,yet again I felt my body shaking..and all.But this time I just got up,enjoy the `shakes` then fell asleep again.Checked again today,it happened at 4 in the morning.

It was a bit weird that I could sense the earthquake,yet from the stories from my seniors,they usually will say that they didn't feel the earthquake,but their Japanese friends can sense it easier than we do.This time,it was totally different between me and my roommate cause when I asked him bout the second shake this morning,his reaction was...:　うそ！ (really? or can't believe like that).

When it comes to the reaction,he was very cool then.Been thinking bout this thing this 2 days.Decided that I'm gonna get some food or drinks prepared in a bag,just in case.Really don't want a big earthquake to happen.Thinking bout it alone is scaring the sh*t out of me d.

A New Life

It has been nearly 2 weeks since I reached my college.Now,I'm getting myself to used to this new life in here.

My class starts at 9 every morning.Get up at 8++,prepare myself and have breakfast at hostel's canteen before I walk to class.As the hostel is in the college's compund,I have no problem with transportation and can sleep till as late as I want if I do not want to take the breakfast(unlike those days in PPKTJ..thinking of it also scary..to catch SUTERA.LOL)

Each period lasts for 90 minutes,with 10 minutes break between periods.For lunch,I'll walk back to hostel and if time allow I might get a nap too.Classes continue till 4:10 ,most of them in class but sometimes in mechanical factory,lab or for me,in teacher's room(one on one) and with first year students the learn stuffs that I have missed in 1st year and 2nd year.I found out that I could learn faster when I'm 1 on 1 with teacher but if I get sleepy..then it is really terrible!!Cause you can't even show that you're sleepy.. And I'm gonna experience it for the rest of the year..@.@'

At night,I spend most of my time doing revision..even though it's like doing nothing (cause after revision also can't understand sometimes),especially maths.Will feel boring at times,therefore I need to get to know more friends as possible,not just my tutor.We do talk a lot but there's nothing wrong with knowing more Japs right?

Weekends,I'll cook myself or dine outside.Tried to cook gyoza last weekend but the first try=chao ta,pure black.Believe that I'll improve next time.hehe..Might go out with my hostel mates this weekend to shopping mall nearby or to karaoke.Still planning.As they too are very 'budget' type,I think won't spend much unless on food unless me myself wanna shopping la..

This is my new life,don't have much different with the life in PPKTJ but meeting new people,learning new culture and experiencing different experiences is exciting.Besides studying,I'm looking forward to weekends,Golden Week break and summer break.HAHA..thinking too far d..

That's all for now.chiaoz..
(I miss watching MU game in my house' sofa!!sobb sobb..no live coverage here.sigh)

Introduction to Akashi Kousen

This is my school,Akashi Kousen.Just a brief introduction.Let the pictures do the talking.


In my previous post,I mentioned bout my tutor,Ootsuki kun.
Very hardwoking and good boy.:P

View from my seat in class.Can see the buggest sakura tree in school compound and far behind,it is the sea!Can see ships sailing by sometimes..(the prove that I wasn't paying attention in class)

My class.Everything is there.Locker,heater,air con,projector,fan,clock,audio system,and more.Their equipment in school is just perfect.Japan huh?!Even though there's just 43 of us in a class.
My room,mine is on the right hand side of the picture.(pink bedsheet)
And...finally...

Since I have yet to buy my laptop,I can only create a short post.Aiks..wanna upload pic also..next time la.hhaa..

The week in Tokyo was great.Thanks to all the sweet sempais from all around Japan(or Malaysia),we we're able to walk around,and had lots of fun in Tokyo.Now I'm in Akashi,my college.Hostel is a bit old and small,but still can survive.Hehe..It is a very convenient place cause everything is near.shops,restaurants,department store,train station-the most important one,and others.But last night I had a not-so-warm shower..was shivering and didn't even wash my hair cause I knew I wouldn't stand it.

Today,thanks to my good sempai too,here in Akashi I was able to open my bank account.Seniors here too brought me to dinner,teaching me lots of stuffs and Afiq even treated me dinner last night.Thank you guys!!Surely wouldn't have survived without them.doumo arigatou gozaimashita!

My tutor finally came to our room today.Today onwards we'll be roommate,classmate and tutor-student relationship.:) Well,I think that he is a very nice person and just hope and pray that our relationship will only get better.By the way,his name is 大槻祥平（Ootsuki Shouhei).

Food here is ok-la...but gonna cook myself on weekends.YEAH!!cooking myself!!believe it??Not instant noodle..cause had it yesterday..I think the food here,is very expensive if compare to other kousen.1 month cost me 30k yen..what say you?

Class starts on Monday.Had my 入学式　(ｎyuugakushiki) 'enter the school ceremony' today.30 minutes only..surely it went smooth,everything was there-speech,introduction,swearing ceremoney..Im sure if it is in Malaysia..It might taken 3 hours.That's how Japanese works.

Will have 始業式　(shigyoushiki) 'starting-the-class ceremony' tomorrow.After that,Spent,spent and spent cause need to buy textbooks and drafting equipments.Plus,this weekend will head to Osaka.Pictures to come!

Hi From Japan :)

Hi there everyone!!

Only now that I have the time to post an entry in my blog.Seems like it has been a long time since I last posted but it is actually just a week ago.It is the 6th day I'm in Japan.Today,I took Shinkansen-bullet trainfrom Tokyo to my college,Akashi. 5 days in Tokyo wasn't enough but I had a great time cause it is a really nice city,I'm loving it.

Just to tell everyone that I'm fine here,learning to live on my own.The hostel here isn't very good but basically everthing is here.The room is SUPER small,after seeing it I was like...hmmm..And it is decided that my roommate will be a Japanese,who will also be my tutor.Will meet him for the first time this Thursday.

For those who miss me...I MISS YOU GUYS TOO!! YEAH,MOM,SIS,BRO,DAD AND FRIENDS.Here's the proves the I'm doing really fine,and enjoying myself here.
