AISHITERU NIHON!

maybe the downside of singaporeans have made me looked into the prospects of myself taking one step closer to comprehending the culture of japan. or maybe something beyond the culture, haha. i wanna study and move into japan! hmm, gonna buy some book and learn jap when im over in brunei. gambatte! perhaps i should apply for university of tokyo soon uh. haha, and im serious!

5days in japan.
i have to say it was a right time for me to break out of all the stress and thoughts that i have. these 5 days in japan made me feel that army life really suck, big time. its too much of a regiment and stuff. before this trip, ive told myself that i gonna spend this 5days thinking it through to choose between monash and unsw. but i guess, these 5days spent were futile. haha.
those 2 pics above are pics of my lodging temple, the place where i slept. and e one below is how i slept. haha. its basically a few layers of mattress lay on top of each other- the traditional jap way.
okay, im supposed to go on a trip to japan as a pilgrimage and have no other intentions in mind. no shopping, no girls,etc. but prob its fate which allured me to a KAWAII jap girl i saw in the temple. she was the support staff there. i was like omg when i saw her there. haha. i will never forget the way she looked at me and said, Ohaiyo Gozaimasu. :) my 30yr old friend and i were talking and he mentioned about a cute girl he saw. what an coincidence, it was the same girl ive noticed earlier on too. haha. and he actually dared both of us to talk to her on the very last night of the prayers. and that is to tell her that shes KAWAIIIIIII (: shes jus freaking cute and sweet looking. man, i miss her. hahah! but too bad, my fren and i didnt get the chance to do so. prob its because of the cheenarian genes that pulled me back. haha, but i really regret not talking to her. when i went back to bed, i was like, damn, i must take a photo with her tmr before i leave the temple and ask her for her contacts. but afterall, what i thought of are merely just thoughts which never happened. why? i never get to see her after that. zzzzz

haha, thats where i met her. inside this temple. :)

It was the 750th anniversary of rissho ankokuron held in taiseikiji.
although this time round there went many ppl who attended this meeting but there were still about 20000ppl from 20+countries. im rather surprised that there's actually a big crowd of believers from the USA.
countries like brazil, ghana, colombia, italy, argentina, etc were also present.
a picture consisting of believers from ghana, taiwan, korea, singapore, brazil, hongkong, japan and msia. cool uh, multinational.




believers from usa, hongkong, ghana, sri lanka




okay, now enjoy the pics i took in japan. spare the formality coz i have to be when i attend the prayers there..










k, that was my mummy and my grandmummy. they look so good in the pic. haha
its such a waste that i didnt really get to see mt fuji this time round. but no worries, i'll upload some gorgeous mt fuji pics i took yrs ago.

taiseikiji is really an awesome place and has awesome people.
hopefully nichiren shoshu could be more recognised though its already spread worldwide.
i'll be back to japan soon! (:
