Exactly One Year Ago Today - Day 4

Osaka

Today is a girls' day out. We took the train from Kyoto to Osaka. The train there is so unlike the ones I have back home. Their train is much much longer and they are extremely punctual. Junko brought Jesse and I at first to the north part of Osaka, Umeda a.k.a. Kita. Kita in Jap means north.

I wanted to buy a new coat for myself. Apparently it's cheaper to buy it there. Came across this shop and I kinda liked the coat. It's black but you can wear it in many diff styles. The sales assistant was a good looking Jap dude but short though... like around 5ft 7. And the way he try explaining to me the fancy-ness of the coat was so "spellbounding" I din had the heart to tell him I wasn't local. Junko and Jesse was just giggling away. But he was so cute.... err... I mean... his sales pitch was damn kau good ah. The coat costs me like around RM 200 to RM300? I can't remember.

There were loads of shops such as Disney and Hello Kitty and oh yes, lingerie shops. Muahahaha... bought meself another one. This time, it's denim. Today was a special day. It's the day when the 20 yr olds become an adult. They had to go to city hall and register, or something like that. Hmm... I don think I have wat it takes to be a documentor, huh? I'd prob suck at it. Neways, there were loads of Jap chicks walking around town wearing their gorgeous Kimonos. I was too shy to asked them so Junko (being such a sweetheart, as usual) asked for me. The girls was shy but honoured I asked them. It costs them a fortune to be in that get-up that day so might as well they have a Gaijin to take their pics.

Later went to a infamous place in Osaka called Doutonbori. There's this big ass crab display on top of a shop. Cool. Met the boys later for dinner. Chong kun brought us to this restaurant and here's what we ate:
Appetizer - raw chicken
Buta Miso - rice with pork and soup
Kimuchi - quite spicy soup
Fried BBQ black pepper chicken
Kara age - satay chicken
Green Tea - bottomless
¥1000 (TOTAL)
And that's like around RM30, k? That's a freakin reasonably priced good food. Oishi..katta. >v<
