Tokyo

Was planning to visit Hokkaido this year but we are not allowed to extend if we go for the package tour. Since we have shared with girl girl to visit the Disney and Seaworld Tokyo, we decided to go Tokyo first and visit Hokkaido in the near future.

My first visit to Tokyo was 7 years ago when I was on school holiday while taking my Master programme. It was, indeed, a great place to visit and I had enjoyed it very much. Japan demonstrated the meaning of a gracious society and we still have a lot to catch up. It has a very rich and interesting culture. There are so many good things to talk about Japan and Tokyo. The only thing is that it is pretty expensive to be in Japan and Tokyo.

We din sign up for Tokyo package tour rather go for a free and easy arrangement. Again, staying in Shinjuku area but in a different hotel. Weather is going to be cold. Looking forward to the public bath and tasting the local dishes.

7 years, I am sure there would be much changes and many more to explore. Ha...ha...ha...

It's time to change my handphone

My handphone goes haywire in the past few weeks.
Not able to use some of the numbers/characters. Have difficulty using it to sms and making calls. Maybe both my daughter and myself have dropped it too many times. Anyway, decided to change it.

Again, there are so many brands and models to consider and explore. Not my cup of tea and very tiring.

Finally bought a new replacement and I go for iPhone 3Gs. Have been using Nokia for many years and wanted to make a change - brand and the interface (ie touch screen).

I am not very fancy over handphone and just hope that the iPhone suits me and will facilitate my communications with all. Taken a few photos and find it tends to be a bit dark by nature :-(

Most importantly, dun drop it too often. Else, iPhone will just go haywire as well as a matter of time. Ha...ha...ha...

It says much about your attitude towards life and state of mind.
