Japan----------Part 3

Hey all,That day,I went down to the city to do something that almost every girl loves...
SHOPPPINNGGG!

I wore a cute green shirt which was very comfy and 100 percent cotton sine you want to feel comfortable but look good while you are shopping.I also wored a pair of green ballet flats.they are really suitable for long shopping trips cause if you shop for a long time on high heels,i think your feet will kinda hurt.But whatever,I never really wear high heels anyway.Then,I even tied my hair into plaits cause i want to feel all cooling when i shop. :)
there!the perfect outfit for shopping!
Then I went down to the city and started to shop.Shop shop shop.
then i saw these cutest japanese uniforms ever and i just had to have it.


Then as i walked on,I saw this acarde and saw this really cool machine.You were supposed to dance on it and the rhythm of the music gets faster and faster and if you can keep up with the speed,good for you!I decided to have a go at the machine and fell in love with it instantly.My body was moving here and there and before i know it,I WAS EXERCISING WHILE HAVING FUN!
And the best thing is,they had this promotion thingy that we could buy the machines but have to build it ourselves.Without thinking,i bought one.I did buy lots of other stuff but i'm too lazy to shre them all.so i shall call this the "highlights" of all the stuff. okay, i'm done for the night.See ya guys!

Japan---------Part 2

I woke up after a few hours,and fumbled around in my suitcase to find a sweater and a pair of jeans.I brushed my hair and tied it up into a bun.It was a rather messy one but i decided,i would worry about that later on.I took my backpack and made my way to the countryside.It was pretty near and only five bus stops away.
then,i went into this little sauna and public bath in some godforsaken place.I rented a bathrobe and towel and went in to enjoy myself.
 But then it was so warm and cosy that i fell asleep XD
 Then after an hour or so,i had tea in the sauna before proceeding to the public bath.I was really afraid that i had to go in naked since it is a public bath and i was feeling really self conscious.Then i saw many pets wearing a bath robe while in the public bath.I wondered how were they going to bathe in that manner.Fortunately,i found a quiet little spot that no one seem to be occupying and un-robed there.i took a quick bath before covering myself up again XD
After soaking myself in there for about an hour or so,i dried myself and changed into my dry clothing.Then i took a bus straight back to the hotel.there,I pulled out a kinomo from my suitcase.It was purple and it had a matching hairpiece.I took a shower to freshen myself up and started to brush my hair really carefully before tie-ing it into a neat little bun.Then,i poked my purple hairpiece to the side of my hair.

Then I made my way out of the hotel.Outside,many stalls were displayed and the streets were already bustling with activity.I had fun trying out many games and ate delicious food.I walked a little here and there and spent the whole evening at the night market before haeding back to the hotel.I needed to have a good night's sleep as i had planned to shop for the whole day the next time :)See ya!

Went for a good old holiday------Japan-----part 1

Hieeeee guys!I must say sorry for not updating this for like a gazillion years.I needed a break and needed to refresh myself as i was getting tired of the same old surroundings everyday,every minute,everytime.
So,I started to do lots and lots of planning.I wanted to take a looonnnngggg break.
I went to lots of countries and now here i am,back at home,using the computer and feeling muchh better.
The first country i went to was Japan.Stayed there for about a week.the country was lovely!I was just in time for their "sakura season"and the flowers dropping from the tress were simply lovely.
I had my brochures with me and have done lots of researching so it did not take me long to find a hotel.
After checking in and taking a little rest from my jet lag,i took my purse and took a little stroll.i felt really relaxed looking at the flowers dropping onto the ground.then i noticed that i still had my coat on and had not changed out of my clothing.I thought,since the festival is approaching,(banners were everywhere) there are lots of people wearing hakamas and other traditional clothing,i decided to be in fashion and went to buy a pretty red hakama.I went back to the hotel to change into it and gave my hair a good brush as it had gone annoying messy after the long flight.

In the hotel room,i took a good look around.It had a pretty view of a nearby valley and it was furnished in a rathered traditional Japanese style.It was rather simple and spartan compared to other hotel rooms but it gave me a homely view.After that,i toonk a good rest to prepare myself for the night market later on.But more of it in the next post!
