So easy,

hello. forgot to blog again lol!! that was long. i caught a cold recently. must be due to the recent cold weather. but it's highly annoying. now im currently spamming tissues to clear out my poor nose. a delay of more than 3 weeks. regarding the pictures of the japanese student guide tour, im lazy to post them because i would need to censor my face if i were to do so, which im lazy to. so i'll skip that part. but nvm for this entry, there will be quite a load of pictures coming up.

first off, let me start with this month's COSFEST IV over at downtown east about 3 weeks back. met up with linger in the morning, and asshole made me wait this time, instead of the usual opposite. lol. he had his 1992 club homies tagging along since they all live in the same area as we do. so everyone was late in the end. wait, except me. im actually early. so it was a trap to make me wait -_- next time im not gonna fall for that. linger's 1992 homie friend's friend is quite chio though. oops =x

it was an awkward journey to the east. linger's friend was really silent. no intro no nothing no talk. zZZZzzzZ. so it was like awkward silence throughout the 45 min bus ride. boring shit i swear. kinda wished either of us would open up and start a convo going. wouldnt be so awkward that way.

cosfest IV, was okay to me la. saw good ones, ok ones and CMI ones. i brought my camera along, intending to take photos of those good ones. and with the hordes of other cameramen hogging certain good ones. i didnt get the chance to take. bitch.

so here's my pathetic shots for day 1.

random meal after we got bored roaming the tentage.

i bought a jigoku shoujo poster and a shirt at the end of the day. seriously i think some stalls there are a waste of space. they need more otaku stalls. there was this pretty good stall selling a decent collection of otaku stuff, ranging from manga to artbooks to japanese magazines and EVEN DAKIMAKURA. i was DAMN tempted to get the giant dakimakura i swear. but i held myself back because im afraid of carrying around such a big pillow around with people staring. anyway, i wished for a better character on it instead. someday i'll get the one i want i guess.

left the event rather early because i found it getting boring. furthermore i had to report back to camp by 1130pm that night. which is irritating. so i guess i rather go home and get some rest first.

that's the end of cosfest.

and now for some random snippets about my life.

you know, during my 24 hour duty in camp, most of the time i would be carrying my arm(rifle) and standing like a dumbass statue at either one of the posts during rotating shifts. and i would be wearing my LBV (also known as combat vest)

and here's a rough idea what's inside my vest during duty.

ok. recently last week, i went to watch DARK KNIGHT. and it was so far the best movie i watched this year. awesome show, i'll rate it 22 out of 5 stars.

i was expecting it to be a lively movie outing, in the end, people backed out last minute. haizz. the movie was ON FIRE. watching it was early as 1245pm and it was already selling fast, and the following timings after that were all in RED. we're a lucky bunch.

dinner. first time eating at Far East's Wasabi Tei. and it was kinda good. but the wait in queue was ATROCIOUS. there was already a small queue gathering outside the store at somewhat 520pm, so we walked randomly downstairs first while waiting for the doors to open at 530pm. when we returned at 530pm, the queue snaked. we waited till 7. SEVEN PM. before finally entering. i almost died waiting.

had iced green tea with salmon sashimi (fucking good shit) and beef teriyaki set.

kept forgetting to take a pic of the food, but took picture of something else instead. my horribly broken chopsticks loL!!

bill chalked up to $47. which is considered quite normal for typical japanese eateries.

NEXT DAY.

i had an insatiable urge to visit SUNSHINE PLAZA. so i did. and bought a new lamp for my room. lol. that was random right. but i serious hate the uber bright lighting in my room, so i purchased this lamp for $33. it has a rheostat built in and adjustable through taps on the edges, so i thought it was quite cool and it has so far been the perfect addition to my dull bedroom. sunshine plaza is a like a mini version of Akiba. i enjoy going there now to browse through and even do a little otaku shopping.

oh ya. i bought some other random stuff too. not mentioning here, just browse through the pictures below and make a guess ; D

some pictures to describe my sunday. let the pictures do the talking.

i have a new addiction. online shopping that is. bought a shirt off j-list.com and i'm surprised at how fast it actually took them to ship to singapore via AIRMAIL. and just a few hours ago, i've already spent more than $100 online. and all i have to do now is just sit back and wait for confirmation emails.

a few days back. after 1 week and 3 days wait. i receive this in my letter box. and im a happy boy.

and just now, i've got my ass to the kitchen to do some baking for tmr's sgcafe picnic outing. i genuinely made these brownies myself, except the ending which my mom did the cutting of the brownies.

holy shit, it's 1am already. i have to sleep NOW.

明日、お楽しみに！
