Year is almost ending.
Japan was fun but to be honest, it was really tiring too.
The beautiful nature gives me good revelation and awe, almost tearing me up at times.
This is the second time I've went to Japan and not much has changed in my opinion, although the last when I went to Japan was more than a decade ago.
There are quite a few interesting sights in Japan and I shall list them here:
1) Restroom cubicles has much too many buttons. Spray, music etc, all those buttons which is not so required while in a toilet. Music has to be played while doing 'business', if not it's rude.
2) Many shops (especially ramen shops) uses a 'vending' system - insert money to machine, select food, machine issue ticket, wait to be seated and pass ticket to person for them to process your order.
3) Hotel check in was also using the vending system and no key/card was issued. Machine issued receipt with password printed so we key password in order to unlock our hotel room door.
4) Japanese provide really good polite service and they have a nice way of returning your change.
5) I saw many drunkards, female and males.
6) 8 out of 10 women, 5 out of 10 men seen in Japan are good looking enough to appear on TV.
7) Most vending machine are the normal kinds you see everywhere but there are some at train stations which are touch-screened. Drink images appear on the screen and when you select them it give extra information on the drink, kinda cool.
8) Prices of item/foods in tourist areas (e.g. Disneyland) are on par with items outside. No jacking up of prices to double kill visitors.
Japan was fun, would definitely go again and this time with my full family members free and easy!

So good so far, absolutely adore the clear statements and instructions.
Work has been alright. Not much feeling towards it now.
I do enjoy doing the CPL and transactions but kinda dislike TCA and signatories, if only it could be re-directed to other personnel.
Quite some people shuffling at work.
And this means more shit for settlements to do.
But it's strange. I do like to work. I feel at ease in office, more so then at home which is weird because I am so eager to go home everyday.
Tomorrow is quite a big day for me.
Hopefully it all goes well. :)
