Japan | Final Exam and Strolling
My day began at 6am. It was test day and I was super nervous. I studied for a bit before quickly getting ready and getting on a bus to school. I was at Ritsumeikan by 7ish and I studied once again with Elaine (she made me a quick study guide, because she is an angel…

Japan | Studying and Sushi
My day began at 6am where I woke up to study and review. I got ready, ate breakfast and headed to Ritsumeikan where I studied some more before lessons began for the day. Nothing exciting happened to me today, nor in the class. Class came and went. We “reviewed”, it was more like “Know everything…

Japan | Honorary Singaporean
Today my day began at 6am. Why did I wake up so early you ask? I asked myself the same thing when I couldn’t fall back asleep. I got up, and took extra long going through my morning routine. First I wash my teeth, sing the ABC’s in my head to count brushing time (don’t…

My day began around 9. It was so nice to sleep in for so late. First time since I have arrived to Japan! I lazied around for a bit while I got ready to go on an adventure. For breakfast I ate blueberry creme oatmeal (yay not toast). Originally I was suppose to go to…

Japan | Rain and Kyoto Station
Today I woke up on time. Two days in a row! (I am so proud). The morning went by pretty smoothly like it always has: breakfast, get ready, facetime, go catch the bus. Only thing about today is that it has been raining none stop…well drizzling…the stuff here is not real rain…it is cold baby…

Japan | Tea Ceremony
Once again, I over slept but twenty minutes. I wish I could stop myself from turning off my alarm in my sleep. I need those extra minutes. Other than the over sleeping. My morning was pretty smooth. I ate breakfast (the same thing as all ways), got ready and FaceTimed my family. And at 8…

Japan | Zen Meditation and Projects
I overslept today. I slept in for about 20 minutes ( I know it’s not a lot but my mornings have routine ). I must have hit okay on the alarm rather than snooze when it first rang at 7:20. Anyways, my morning routine was pretty much the same but at faster tempo. Make breakfast,…

Japan | Fushimi Inari
Today I gave myself the luxury of sleeping till 8am. It is such a nice feeling to be able to sleep in, even if it is just two hours more. My breakfast was the same as always, eggs and toast (I’m going to end up bleeding eggs and toast by the end of this trip).…
