Dinner, Bonding... with 1-year pips
Posted by linglaine at 01:14 AM on January 15, 2006 in 日本のこと, Babble.
Just got home. My officemates and I went out to eat dinner at Skylark Gusto. Ate Marie's (the one in of green shirt) been meaning to eat there for i guess 2 weeks already. We always fail to do so coz three of us are always on overtime. Finally, we made it this evening!
Well, this night was extra special coz it's one of our last bonding moments with Ate Marie and Ate Jaz. They will be leaving soon, 12:00AM of Jan 23 to be exact. I'll be missing them surely especially Ate Marie's garfield smile and her dialogue, "ay! ganyan ka pala..." with complete facial expression. i can't describe it here but it's really cute. hehehe. I'll also miss teasing ate jaz about ghosts and stuff coz she's really so damn scared of them.
Anyway, that's just it for now coz i'm very sleepy already. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz....
Dumbledore Daw O!?!

Ilang beses ko nang sinabi na hindi dapat maging masyadong masaya sa mga bagay-bagay kasi panigurado na meron at merong kapalit yan. At eto na nga, matapos ang lahat ng saya ko sa videocam, digicam, USJ, eh pagkainis naman. Nung thursday ko pa talaga nalaman ang nakakainis na balita, kaya lang mas nangingibabaw pa rin yung saya ko. Pero dahil sa mangyayari na bukas ang kinaiinisan ko, wala, wala na lahat!
Una kong kinaiinisan: ganda ng salubong ng bagong taon! matapos ang anim na araw na bakasyon eh, 10 araw kaming staight na may pasok! Woohoo!
Pangalawa: Anong araw ang kasama don? Hulaan mo! Ay medyo nabanggit ko na pala. Linggo!!! Woohoo! Hindi tuloy ako makakasamba. Darn!
Pangatlo: Pati lunes may pasok! Eh, public holiday yun dito e!!! Waaaaa!
Pang-apat: Dahil nga walang bakasyon, di ako makakasama sa pag-gagala.
Pang-lima: Buti sana kung bayad ang mga araw na yan!?! Ay nako, mahabang eksplanasyon kaya hindi ko na isasama dito. Basta yun. Ang OT ay OTy na naman!
Pang-anim: ang hinayupak na si STEELWOOL!!! Kung di niyo siya kilala na malamang nga ay hindi, siya ang boss kong Hapon. Walang patumaga kung magbigay ng trabaho.
Hay nako, kung katabi ko lang si Stephen Covey, nabatukan na'ko no'n. Hindi ko lang talaga kayang maging proactive nang malaman ko na kailangan naming pumasok sa mga araw na dapat ay bakasyon kami at nagpapahinga lang.

My Trip to USJ
Posted by linglaine at 07:51 PM on January 6, 2006 in 日本のこと.
I went to Universal Studios Japan, Osaka with my churchmates last Monday and I must say the place was really fantastic and we had a blast! Medyo bitin nga lang coz we weren't able to ride all of the rides. I guess almost all peeps from nearby Osaka got out of their beds that morning and decided to go there too. Sa dami ng tao, we had to wait in line for about an hour or two. But it's all worth it. Astig kasi sobra!
We went in first at the cyberdyne - terminator showcase. Actually, I didn't like it that much except for the human-sized robots. Medyo halos di sila kasi nagkakaiba ng effects ng rialto ng EK e. Hehehe. Plus, i'm not a fan of arnold schwarzenegger. lol.
Next stop was back to the future. We hopped in a car that looked almost the same as doc's invention in the movie. The effects were great and it really felt like i was part of what i was watching . I can't compare it to any of virtual rides of EK. Good thing i was able to enjoy this one coz i'd be too damn depressed if not. Back to the future parts 1,2 and 3 are some of my all time favorite movies.
Then, we went for spiderman! =) Again, i rode one of the mini-cars that traveled through the dark halls of whatever. i had fun with this one and i got to scream the whole time! Pano naman kasi, lech! I felt like I was jumping from one building to another. Tapos yung tipong nahuhulog ka from the top of it. hahaha! O diba, na-experience ko ding maging spiderman. =D Sa sobrang nagustuhan ko siya, pilit kong nilabas yung digicam ko para lang makapag-video (kahit bawal). Ayun! i was almost caught by one of the japanese facilitators. hehehe. di nila alam, nakapagvideo nga ako. *evil laugh*
We had lunch after that, mga 3pm na yun. Grabe! Alas-3 na pero tatlo palang napuntahan namin. you can just imagine how much of japan's population was in USJ at that time. After that, we wasted no time and hurried to Jaws. This time hindi na mashadong mahaba ang pila. I liked this one too but not as much as b2df and spidey. I would have enjoyed it better kung mas nabasa ako ng tubig. hahaha! O kaya naman, kung sumampa sa bangka namin yung pating. hahaha! Gusto ko rin yung effects na may sumasabog na fuel tanks. Galing eh, umaapoy din yung tubig. Tapos nagra-radiate samin yung init. E diba nga, winter kasi. Kahit manlang sandali eh nakaramdam ako ng init sa katawan. ahahaha! (ayokong mag-isip! =D)
Tsugi, Jurassic Park ride. This was kinda weird. Kasi diba sa movie, the setting was mainly terrain eh sa USJ, nasa waters kami. Tipong logjam (tama ba?) ng EK. Mas hi-tech nga lang coz there were moving and sounding replicas of dinosaurs circa ewan. ang saya! Basang-basa ako. Kung di lang talaga naninigas na yung kamay ko sa lamig eh inulit ko siya.
Ano pa bang other word for next, then, etc? basta, sunod is yung waterworld. I was not able to watch the real movie. My friend just told me that the artists re-enacted the movie. Astig yung set! Hirap i-describe so just check out the pics in my flickr account. hehehe. There were speedboats, canon (may enye yung n), burning airplane came out of nowhere... basta astig talaga! Sana kayang gawin ng mga pinoy yun.
Our last ride was the snoopy ride. Actually, pang-kiddie siya but it seemed to be fun so we tried it out. Sobrang nabitin nga lang kami. Pagpilitan ba daw kasi e. Sobrang nagsiksikan kami ng friend ko sa isang carrier (carrier ba tawag don?), para kaming tanga! Ok lang naman kasi I got to buy a picture of me screaming as a souvenir. lintek na yon! 1,100 yen nagastos ko don. Pero ok na rin nga kasi yun lang naman ang souvenir ko besides the loads of picture and the video that i took.
Haaaay... yun naman lang. A day was just not enough still i was overwhelmingly happy until now!!! At last, i finally made it to USJ. Next target, tokyo disneyland! hahaha! As if i could afford that one. =D
