1st April 2009, this will be the day I embark on my new journey to a new life (literally), and towards a goal that is so far but seemingly reachable...
Farewell, yesterday. Welcome, tomorrow~
I have gotten this scholarship with purpose, and I will continue to move on forward with purpose. Some people think that my dream is to "study music in Japan"...but... that's not exactly right, lol.
My dream, is reachable by "studying music in Japan". I have not fulfilled my dream, yet. My wish has not come true, yet. However, I am slowly and steadily building a path towards my target...it will be achievable, by studying what i want in Japan. I hope.
Tomorrow night, my flight to Tokyo.
Tomorrow night, my dream takes flight.

I got 3000 ang pow money!!!
3000yen...sounds like a lot? Go check the exchange rate if you want. woo~!
HAHA! Ok, it's the thought that counts...went to Jack's Place (West Coast Recreation Centre) for dinner with Rena, Jin Ling and Marie yesterday and ate so much till I was unpleasantly bloated.
Rena and Co. gave me a 3000-yen worth of ang pow money (in tha red envelope). Rena also wrote me a nice letter on Japanese calligraphy paper, and folded it nicely into card size, makes it easy for me to bring it over to Japan with me. lol.
And one disgusting thing!! MARIE ZHENG GAVE ME MR HAPPY!!! @_@ OK! This Mr Happy was forced on Rena's journey to New Zealand, and god knows what Marie did to Mr Happy before it even went to New Zealand... eeeeew! Ok. This Mr Happy would have travelled to New Zealand and Japan in time to come. But, heyz, i'm not returning Mr Happy to you any time soon, Marie! It'll have to bear rain or shine with me in Japan for at least 3 years. Accompanying Mr Happy is also a letter written by Marie (on yellow paper). Since the letter also fits into the "ang pow", i guess i'll just bring it along with me to Japan.
Thanks girls!! Love ya all! And will miss ya all! xxoxoxoxoxx
(I'm looking at the pile of soft toys i'll be bringing over to Japan with me......)

17kg and increasing...
I finally got to start packing my luggage seriously yesterday...
the initial weight is 17kg.
I haven't put in my books.
I haven't put in Cadbury Moo Moo.
I haven't put in the bags i need to bring over.
I haven't put in my shoes.
Whoa...Even if i don't surpass the baggage weight limit, how am i supposed to be able to carry that thing??
I also intend to carry a bag on my back. That bag will consist of my game consoles, my laptop, portable hard disks, important documents, my valuables and jacket.
hmmm......i need to put some stuff in my dad's or uncle's luggage, so as to distribute the weight.

つかれてます
つかれてる。。。この一週間は息をつく暇がない。毎日も友だちに誘われて、毎日も出かける。正直に、私はどこにも行きたくない。ただ、静かに、ゆっくりで、家で家族とこの一週間を過ごしたい。だって、私にとして、最終までに一番大切なのは家族です。でも、友だちは私が日本に行く前にどうでも私に会いたいって、失望させたくないから、断る勇気がなくなった。どこにも行きたくないの。本当に。家でいなかったら、つかれちゃう。もうつかれてます。ホームシックか。。。短い時間で家にいなくても、ホームシックになる。（しまった。。。日本でどうやって生けるの。。。）

April Fools' Day draws closer...
It's funny how i get the same response everytime i tell people my flight is on 1st April. "Ha? Really ah? You not bluffing me right? Wait i go airport see you off, you not there how??" hahaha~ Thanks alot? But i'm not lying... I'm really flying off to Tokyo on 1 April.
And i realize just how forgetful i am...whenever people ask me for my flight details, i have to recheck my itinerary...@_@
Can i just put down my flight details here so that i can remind myself of the time i need to fly? lol
1 Apr 09 / SIN-NARITA / 22:40hrs – 06:35hrs (2 Apr)
hmm...this should be convenient.
At first, only my dad would want to come along with me. Then my uncle said he could help, so these two old men will take the same flight as me to Tokyo. THEN! It has been decided that my cousin would also be coming along!
So...this became more than just "helping me settle down in Tokyo". It is now something like "7-Day Tokyo Tour!". hehex. I'd probably be really busy during my first 2 to 3 days, so i can't have fun with them touring Tokyo and such, i hope i'll be able to at least go to Disneyland or something with them once things have calmed down a little for me. =D
I used to be really dreading this day...because i know i'll have to leave my family behind. But now...at least, there's something i can look forward to.
