The last hour of Golden Week
And 9 days of holidays just flew past.Well, technically 7 days, because Tue and Wed weren't public holidays, but i was on holiday mode nonetheless.
And now, before i know it, it's back to office tomorrow.
Gyaaahhhhh~~~
Apparently this kind of depression has a name in Japan.
５月病
"Go-gatsu byou"
It's post GW Depression in other words. Haha.
Sorry guys, for being MIA for over a month... wow. I can't believe i didn't update since Takki's birthday. Gomen yo... Sometimes lethargy just kicks in. I keep telling myself i will update enthusiastically during GW, but ended up im only doing it last minute at the last hour of GW. *cough* And it's been so long that i almost couldn't log in cos i forgot my password! LOL. Blogger was just about to kick me out thinking that i'm a robot trying to hack my own account.
Anyway, i didn't go anywhere for this GW. Just no money and its peak season for travelling, so everywhere's expensive and darn crowded. Was just practically going for lotsa nomikai (drinking parties) and erm, rotting at home? Haaa.. so unfulfilling ya? But man, i think i really drink a lot since coming here. JAPANESE REALLY LIKE TO DRINK (and Takki's is no exception). i don't think they can have a meal at night WITHOUT alcohol. Nowadays i'm always drinking plum wines. I think my drinking ability has power-upped. LOL.
Anyway, shall post up some pics i took. Must make use of my 3.2 megapix phone camera ya?
Don't you girls think this is a must-take?? LOL.
When i saw this at the supermarket, i was laughing away to myself and trying to sneak a pic without looking like a weirdo.
It's funny how this thing is related to Takki.
And no, i still dunno what the hell it is. XD
My contribution to Takki's 25th Birthday Project.
Theme: BLACK BUTTERFLY
Initially thought that i have nothing to write, but filled up the card in no time. Was planning to design it some other way, but kept procrastinating and ran outta time. So i just cut out shapes of butterflies and stuck them on Takki PINK paper. It turned out nicer than i thought it would. Impromtu isn't always a bad thing i guess.
Went to Kawasaki in Yokohama with colleagues and we stopped by this park next to an industrial area. Higashi Ougijima Koen. Many people were fishing there even though the waves were really choppy that day.
It was really impromtu trip but amazing cos i was just telling someone that SAME MORNING, i want to go somewhere where i can see the sea. And i really did in the same day. Hoho...
Anyway, i just realised the pic on the left has pretty good erm... angle? I like how all the lines converged on the left.
Left: Dead and dried up starfishes along the pavement. There were a lot of these.. Chotto kimoi.
I think they were caught by accident by those people who are fishing.
Right: The "remains" of a starfish.
The wind was REALLY strong that day. My colleague was suggesting we do BBQ at this park next time but i think the BBQ will end in half the intended time as all our charcoal will burn up at twice the speed with that wind!! LOL. Anyway, the air really smelt a bit different with all the factories around, so not a good place to hang out for long.
The choppy sea. And the factories in the background. I thought it looked rather bleak. As we were driving there, the whole area was ALL FACTORIES. With chimneys and all. It's like those visuals you get when you watch programs about global warming. And a certain scene from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Haha. But my guy colleague was so excited. He kept saying "kakkoii, kakkoii..." O_o??
Very strong winds...
Dou? A photo blog is better than me ranting on and on about crappy work right? XD Will try and update again!! I think i should aspire to make short posts. It's easier to keep up.
ONE WEEK TO YOKOHAMA CONCERTS!!!! Gosh, has been 5 months since i last saw Takki live. Ano.. and i'm right here in Tokyo. Ah doiz... =.=
