My Golden Week Summary

Posted by iLy@s isM@iL on 12:10 AM
Haven't got much chance to write this days. This past few days were tiring but yet i had enjoy those days. Starting from the preparation for the Hiroshima football tournament ( You are not the only budak itam...... here right now. Most of us join the gang.) Setting the tent and making lines on the field was something I have never done before. It was hot and I had a good laugh watching everyone doing their best on their work ( they were also beginners just like me). Then with the bento and buying all the stuff needed plus borrowing some stuff from the family.

Hiroshima Team

The tournament was amazing. Even we didn't manage to win ( OK le 4th place kan...) but everyone give their best in this tournament. Not to forget the cheer leading squad lead by I don't know who. There is a lot of people acting like a leader but BAGUS LE KORANG..... Even some of them were struggling with their future on the line, they manage to come and join the fun. That's what unity is all about.

After all the fun, I set off for another fun adventure with the founder of Wiki Wiki to Kyoto. There was some mouth saying 'Pergi dgn kouhai....' but who cares. I don't know anyone in Osaka and Kyoto and I think most of my batch don't know anyone so following him is the best choice i could. And I stayed at kaikan in Osaka Dai. So its worth it ler dapat stay free and enjoy all the fun.


Places that I've visited in Kyoto is Kinkakuji, Nijo-jo, Kiyomizu-Dera and Gion. Well its a full day trip so that's all we can manage. I had trouble with the weather. The morning was a bit cloudy and later around noon the rain fall (it was quite annoying since I can't use my SLR much since I have to use 1hand to hold my umbrella) And there is some pictures with a rain drop on the lens.(Most annoying thing!!)

金閣寺 (Kinkakuji)
二条城 (Nijo-jo)
清水寺(Kiyomizu-Dera)

The Kinkakuji was as it says, it is shiny with gold wall and everything. And the rest I don't really see much of its speciality. Maybe because of the rain and how stupid is it that we cannot take pictures inside the castle in Nijo-jo. Whats the use of coming then. I wish to see the geisha when I visit Gion but they said that geisha is quite hard to find. Even when you go the their performance, once it ends, they will eventually go home quickly even sometimes running for taxi around the Gion street. So I guess it was not my lucky day after all.

祇園 (Gion)

The next day was a trip to Aquaria. Wiki Wiki friends went there the day before we go and they said that the place was superb. They didn't manage to enter Aquaria since the line to buy tickets were so long but there is a ' Kid's Dance Competition' held on the day they come. We miss that competition but we were lucky to enter Aquaria. I heard it is the biggest Aquaria in the world and the inside was as expected. ITS BLUE AND BEAUTIFUL. There are many kind of sea creatures I haven't seen before. Some are well known like sharks and penguin (penguin is a sea creature?)

I failed in using the right shutter speed

Right now as the journey end, I move to a week with full of assignment. So much for my holiday...SIGH......!!
