~First Impression~

I'm here already..After jumping up and down,watched CSI:Miami.House and a quarter of Rumor has it,arranged myself a jukebox,listen to Mandarin Hits,one packed Japanese lunch,one coffee and one bun for tea on the plane...I finally reached Narita Airport and went straight to Toko Hotel in Tokyo.Everything was a fast blur.Reached,saw weird and cute Japanese in blue uniform,sent my luggage with Anwar to our kousen(college).

After one hour of super unbelivable-steady-and-same-speed one hour ride in the bus,I felt really nausetic.Met Usui sensei.Matsuse sensei and Shimizu sensei there.Can]t say the details cuz everything was a fast blur to me...Had a stroll with Min Ley and May Ching,the wind was cooling and I felt fine until the wind blew.It freezed my face which had no protection what-so-ever..We went to shops,checked out prices,me more of a jackoon then both of them..and to say I'm from KL??hehe.It was just unbelievable to see everything.From the very organise ways the Japs work to the blurry covertion of the Japnese yen..

About first impression le wor...At first,Clement and I agree that we didn' fel anything about being in Japan..Cuz we can see the Japan cars in Malaysia,the roads are the same.SAw super nice Ferris wheels..The impression that actually startled me was contrary to other people,the weather was enjoyably cooling instead of bitterly cold,to me,its the size of the hotel room we had at Toko Hotel..so superly small!!!played with the toilet,got myself amazed at the good services of the room itself,used up every utility available.*grin..After a night there,we moved out seperatly..

Was the first to leave and didn't managed to say any goodbye to the rest..Was with Hazwan.hasrul.aqilah.din.basyir,anuar,syazni,zurul,noor and fasihah..took the shinkansen then parted with the rest at Nagoya.Basyir joined Anuar and I at Kintetsu Nagoya but got into a wrong train that was due earlier then the designated time.He was about to get down the train but the doorclosed in front of him..So poor thing.I'm so glad i've learned Chinese which helped me look at the ticket to take our trains..lucky we din get lost.

Met our senseis at the train station.First time using my Japanese in a staggering way too.Straight from the station we went to the nyuugakushiki,namely the "new students enter university ceremony".Found that I'm the only foreign girl student.Had a hard time trying to catch up to the bullet-train speed Japanese talking..sighhh..Spent the whole day in silent mode,talk only when talked to,sometimes not even speaking or plainly answered with one word.I looked really cold,at least Anwar dare to say and blurt out nonsense..I just can't..

Cleaned the whole room the whole day,aranged the furniture,went shopping,met my seniors,did what has to be done.Met my tutor,very 'si man',had a very hot bath that i can actually see steam,froze to death when getting dress..I hate myself right now,who didn7t drop a tear at the airport,not even now,don't think I will later too.I hate the blur me and quiet me with limited Japanese.I hate myself for being so clueless.I hate myself for almost getting myself sick already now.I hate myself for not getting more clothes..

Most of all,I hate myself for letting my hatrad made me felt nothing even now it hit me that I'm in Japan.I guess I'm too tired to even think right now...have to wake up early and go to class tmr..sigh sigh sigh..my nihongo...When can get well lerrrrr???

Hey sweetie...How's life there? You sound really depressed yesterday when we were chatting. Don't freak out so soon...try to adapt to the new surrounding and always remember there's a whole bunch of us who are supporting you! =D
Also, I'm also as lonely as you when I first reach here. Just try to talk to someone, anyone...if not, you will get homesick very soon. Btw, my first close friend that I got here was a Jap! Lolz...imagine that...It's not msian but japs.
No worries dear! I'm always online de...just nudge me and chat to me ya when you feel that you wanna talk to someone!

Cheers!
