More Pretty Pictures and a Video for my Valentine's Day in Japan!! =)

Since I managed to retrieve all of my Japan pictures and videos, I will be adding more pictures and videos that are related to my previous posts.

The pictures in this post will be related to my Valentine's Day in Japan post. Go read that post first if you haven't. =)

So, here goes!

The white building is the condo where we stayed=)

This view is right outside the condo. There's a ferris wheel behind=)

More views surrounding the condo


This is at one of the malls we went to. We're now at the ferris wheel! We walked all the way there! Imagine how far it was earlier in my previous pictures=D 

(We walked the whole of Tokyo when we were there, we din take a cab or rented a car, we used the subway train quite a lot to get around)


That's the CUTEST car ever!!! It was on display in the mall (This mall consists of only car shows, will post up a video on this) ^^

This is a special Valentine's Day car... me want!!!!!

Other cars at the mall.


They even have a vending machine for car catalogues! =D
After walking non-stop, we were so very hungry!! We went over to the market outside the mall and saw LOADS of food! If you read my previous post, there were pretty Valentine's Day flowers too=D


My Unagi Lunch!!! I LOVE UNAGI!!!


THESE ARE THE BEST STRAWBERRIES EVER!!!!! THEY'RE HUGE, SUPER SWEET, JUICY, AND AFFORDABLE!!!!!!

Japanese Noodles^^


Oh, we didn't eat dog food..haha.. I took a picture of it coz it's sooooo cool!! My dogs will love Japan coz they can get snacks while walking outside!! You just put some coins in and the dog snacks will come out!
After eating, we went to another mall.. I love this mall coz I got lots of lovely boots from here and the interior is like the Las Vegas Venetian Hotel.. The ceiling looks like the sky and there are Roman pillars and designs=)

Those hanging lights are animated so it looks like it's raining crystals inside..so pretty!!

 The mall has a gambling spot.. It's not a hotel, but a mall, unlike in Las Vegas, where the hotels have gambling spots=)

This antique car was displayed in the outer walk way of the mall.. So cute!!

Japan's version of Golden Bridge..hehe

Me and the view.

Aqua City Odaiba!! It's not a water park, it's a mall..haha


The night view of Japan's Golden Bridge=)

Pretty^^

The outside view from the mall=)
After a long, tiring day, we decided to eat dinner at the mall. We ate....  TURKEY'S!!!!!

Turkeys are the double sized version of chickens..haha


We ate turkey burgers and turkey drumsticks!


Yummay!!!!


My Mom's almost finished product..hehe

While walking home=)

When we reached our condo, we decided to go up to the condo's deck.... 
 THE DECK WAS FREAKING BEAUTIFUL AND ROMANTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I SO WISHED MY BF WAS THERE WITH ME....SOBS!!!!!

The zoomed in view from the upper deck of the condo.

See the building with the "g" like shape on it? 
That's actually a clock. The whole city can see it. It is visible in the day time and also at night. 
ALSO, the building is actually a garbage disposal place, they burn all their garbage in that building... How cool is that??!!


The so very romantic deck=)

So beautiful... To make matters worse, it was Valentine's Day and I felt even more lonely..haha


Wanna see more??? I took a video!! Haha, watch it below.. 
I sound really really weird in this video compared to the other videos I took because I was trying really hard to stop my lips from quivering..it was sooooo cold!!!!
(you can compare how I sound like with my other videos when I post them in my later posts)


SO, WHAT'S NEXT???!!!

I'll be posting up more videos and pictures once I've edited them... so much work to do!!!! I'm so freaking sleepy now..haha.. Hope you like this post=)

VALENTINE'S DAY IN JAPAN! (some pictures of Japanese call-girls)

Wooookays, my second day in Japan was Valentine's Day.. I din get to celebrate with my Valentine but I made him a surprise present before I left.. I told his bestie to help me give it to him when I'm in Japan=) I might post up the Valentine surprise that I did sometime soon^^

So, waking up in Japan knowing that you can't enjoy Japan with your boyfie is kinda sad..but I got to see my parents being the lovey couple..tee hee hee... I had to tell them though that it was Valentine's Day because they kinda din know..ha ha

We decided to walk to the place where the malls and markets were.. Oh yea, in Japan, we did A LOT OF WALKING... We did not rent any vehicle because people seldom drive in Tokyo, they usually take the Subway which we did really often.. So, we practically walked the whole of Tokyo the whole week we were there =D

A VALENTINE ATMOSPHERE AT THE MARKET


When we arrived at the market, we saw loads of couples walking around.. Damn, I felt freaking lonely..ha ha.. The stalls were selling lots of huge fresh looking fruits and vegetables.. We bought a few boxes of strawberries because they were HUGE & SWEET!!! This is the sad part, the pictures are in the CD my dad left behind in Pahang... SIGH... (I'll post it up once I get the CD)

Then, I stumbled on a few stalls that sold these cute Valentine flowers ^^


After a day of shopping which sadly, I do not have any pictures to show coz it's in the freaking CD, we decided to go to ... 
 
ROPPONGI- the "RED LIGHT DISTRICT OF JAPAN"

As we were walking along the streets of Roppongi, my mom and I realized that a few guys were passing out things to passersby, but curiously, they did not give anything to us when we passed those guys... So, we decided to let my Dad walk in front while we tagged a few meters behind..

TADA! My dad was receiving all kinds of pamphlets, brochures, coupons, and etc.. ha ha.. Below are the things he received =P
Tissue papers with details of the "prostitution parlor" (I dunno what they're called or a better name for it, lol)

 The map of the "prostitution parlor" & the price for the services (30 minutes, 980 yen, lol) you want?
But you gotta admit, kinda creative way to advertise..ha ha

 Now, this one I got myself, they're invitations to the night clubs.. I wanted to go but my parents were there, so, no clubbing for me =(

 This is the best thing my Dad got =D 

A catalogue of all the girls to choose from to entertain you.. It even gives you their vital stats, age, and etc..but most of them are written in Japanese.. I could only understand the numbers so I kinda figured out what it meant..ha ha

 The inside of the catalogue.. spot anything nice??? =P

If you wanna see a clearer view of the catalog, those who knows me personally can ask me for it and I'll show you the catalog when I meet you=)

This is an invitation I got, and again, I din go coz my parents had other plans for the night and going to pubs is not one of them..haha

This is also another invitation I got, oh gee, I'll come back next time with my girlies to club in Japan, hopefully! ^^


Now, I can't figure out this one.. It's all in Japanese and I'm not sure if it's advertising those sticker photos or they're Japanese call girls... If you can read Japanese, feel free to translate it =)

Oh yea, the catalog that my Dad got also comes with a 3,000 Yen discount coupon! So, if any of you are going to Japan to visit one of them girls, I might give the coupon to you..haha

Anyway...

WHAT'S NEXT FOR MY JAPAN TRIP?

I'll be posting some interesting videos and some of the pictures I have on the high-end malls in Japan!

Till then, stay cool and stay tuned!!!

MY AWESOME JAPAN TRIP! (interesting pictures and a video taken in the toilet, hehe)

Before I start, I have some REALLY BAD NEWS...

My dad took the SD card and deleted some of the videos I took in Japan coz he thought I got it all transferred to my PC.. I DID NOT...

So, I only have some of the pictures and videos..which is NOT A LOT..

I'll just be talking about the things I did in no particular order.. so sorry=( I'll promise to keep a travel journal the next time I'm on a trip=)

SO, LET'S BEGIN!

ARRIVAL DAY

Once we arrived at the airport in Japan, we could immediately feel the piercing cold weather.

After gearing up with our thick jackets, scarfs, and gloves, we walked out to the airport bus stop where I got to check out the hot Japanese girls at the airport.. haha.. all you guys out there will be so very jealous =P

(it's normal for straight girls to check out hot chicks okay, so, I'm STRAIGHT)

Those hotties were wearing MINI SKIRTS!!! feee-reee-king MINI SKIRTS!!

I guess they must have gone through some intensive training to look hot even in extreme cold weather.. I would want to go for that training.. DAMN!

(Sorry, no pictures for you guys to satisfy yourselves coz I was gawking so much that I din have time to snap a picture of them, kinda rude if I did coz they were pretty close to me =S)

However, I'll post up pictures of Japanese call girl brochures in a later post =)

We boarded the bus to go to a hotel where my second cousin would be meeting us. I took this interesting shot in the bus =)

lol, it sounds normal but not all buses in Malaysia requires us to wear seatbelts, haha=D so, I was pretty impressed =P

When we reached the hotel, I discovered some interesting machines that I've not seen before. 

Can you guess what that is? It looks like a telephone except there's no receiver of any kind..hmm..

I can't read Japanese but the little pictures on the instruction sheet tells me that it is a... 

Phone Charging Machine!! 

You put in some money like how you put money into the public telephone then connect your phone to the machine's USB wires..  how cool is that?? 

This machine will definitely help me loads when my phone runs out of battery when I'm out and when I really really need to use the phone.. damn.. I hope this machine will be conveniently available in Malaysia especially with the rate of mobile phone users in Malaysia.. =)

Now, can you guess what's this machine??? 

Kinda easy coz there are loads of cigarettes on display..haha.. It's a vending machine for cigarettes..For those cigarette lovers.. this is convenient for you smokers out there I guess..

But I personally don't think that it's a good machine to have... WHY???

CHILDREN BELOW THE AGE OF 18 CAN BUY CIGARETTES ANY FREAKING TIME!! 

Now, I don't know what are the rules in Japan regarding the legal age for smoking, but for those who know me personally, I'm really not a fan of cigarettes.. So, I'm pretty much against this machine in all aspects. (no offense to smokers out there, just don't exhale your smoke into my face, I absolutely don't like it)

After some time, my cousin came to pick us up.. We'll be staying at his super duper expensive condo.. it costs a few million Malaysian ringgit.. But.. for those who don't know.. the living spaces in Japan are really really small.. so, paying lotsa money does not mean you'll get a huge place to live in.. kinda sad..

UPON ARRIVAL AT THE CONDO

I saw a lotta garage at the car park.. So, I was thinking that maybe everyone parks their cars in these garages... 



However, my cousin got down of the car in front of one of the garage, scanned his ID on the scanner, and pressed a number like the ones you see in the lift that indicates the different floors.. (Now, I'm getting slightly confused)



When the garage opened, I was.....................DUMBFOUNDED

I saw lots of cars stacked up above the garage.. the cars are all rotated up to the their own respective floors!
CRAZY!!! If you're still confused.. it works like this.. You drive the car into the garage, close the garage door, then the car will be rotated up to the floor that you clicked.. Just like a lift, but it's for cars.. I can see all those glamorous cars stacked up above each other in the garage.. like a car storage thingy.. 

 Can you see that white car? That's only one of the cars stacked up..there are more cars stacked above that car.. I took a picture of the stacked cars but it's in my Dad's CD =(
That's right before the doors were gonna close.

IN THE CONDO

As usual, I always have to go to the toilet first.. I love toilets... a lot.. ha ha... 

BUT..

I ESPECIALLY LOVE THIS TOILET!!!!!!!

It looks very ordinary right??? Wait till you watch the video I took below! 
(I couldn't talk in the video because I didn't wanna sound too excited in the toilet coz my cousin was outside.. LOL)


Sigh.. I miss the toilet.. =(

IN THE LIVING ROOM
After unpacking our bags, we entered the living room while waiting for my cousin to finish cooking dinner=)

Again, I was taken by surprise... (I got shocked and surprised a lot during this trip, haha)

The view in the living room was BREATHTAKINGLY BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!
I could literally SEE THE WHOLE OF TOKYO from the living room!!! How I wish I had a house like that where I can come home everyday and get a bird's eye view of the whole city when it's brightly lit up!!

Of course, to help you experience a little bit of it, I took a video of the view from the condo..hehe (Again, I din wanna talk coz I din wanna sound too freaking excited in front of my cousin, haha)

DINNER TIME!! 

My cousin cooked some awesome dinner for us!! He's a FANTASTIC cook!!! Not to mention a genius too, that's why he's earning so much =P

He cooked HOMEMADE PIZZAS!!!! 

 It has anchovies, spinach, cheese, homemade salsa, salmon, and all the good stuff.. He made the crust on his own too.. Seriously, I want to eat the pizza again right now.. =(


I'm honestly NOT EXAGGERATING when I say that it's the BEST PIZZA I've ever had.. Better than those pizza companies in Malaysia.. sigh.. wish he could open up a pizza shop and have a branch here in Malaysia=)

After eating another 2 large sized pizzas, my parents and I decided to call it a night.. We had lots to do the next day..hehe.. for me, LOTS OF SHOPPING!!!! 


WHAT'S NEXT OF MY JAPAN TRIP???

Till then, stay tuned for SEXY JAPANESE GIRL PICTURES & TOKYO DISNEYLAND!!! I have awesome videos coming right up!!! This time, the videos will have some interesting audio =P

Toodles!!
