Just spent 1500 yen on a claw machine trying to catch Pingu. It was so close!!! I can still feel my heart beating furiously while I was trying to catch it. I'm never going to continuously claw at it again, the next time I see something I like I will try to claw the most 1000 yen and give up. 1500 yen is too much for my heart to handle. Actually I've spent a total of 3000 yen on that little shit as I spent another 1500 yen at Shinjuku last week. I need to start earning money!!! Been trying to find a job online but it seems that you need at least a minimum of N2 to start working in almost anywhere. I have calculated and I will require at most another 20k SGD to live in Japan for another 6 months. At most 20k, at least 13k. I will need to start to reduce my expenses now. Need to start to speak more of Japanese now!!! OSU!!!

I'm now in my classmate's house using her WIFI. We are going to eat hotpot from lunch until tomorrow morning. 24 hours hotpot. Very cool My friend is called Li Zi Xi and I have another stupid friend called Ding Yuan Yuan. 50 more days to JLPT N2 test. I have not really started my study. It seems that I'm really not cut out for prolonged studies. I don't have the diligence to maintain systematic studying. I thought I'm able to change but it seems like old habits die hard. I'm still the same old me as I was 10 years ago. Not sure if that is a good or bad thing. Been looking through jobs on online sites. I'm so determined to find a job in Tokyo. I do not want to go back to Singapore. It's not that I dislike Singapore, but it's just that when I return, I will be back to ordinary life. Living a mundane office lady life. It scares me to think that my life will continue to be in that form. One day I may appreciate the office life, but not now. Now I just want to enjoy every moment of my life and my remaining youth.

Just wanted to come in and enter some events that happened. 1. JLPT N2 - Failed, need another 20 more points to pass. I've signed up for another on 1st July! 2. Went Flower Flower concert on 1st April. First time seeing Yui so close!!! However, the concert was kinda boring since I don't really listen to their songs. So I wasn't as excited as I thought I would be. 3. Went Okinawa from 7-8 April with 3 classmates. Okinawa's initial appearance reminded me a lot like KL. It was as if I went bank to South East Asia. We went there at kinda of a weird timing so most water sports were not available due to the sea being 'not warm enough'. 4. Went Hokkaido from 30 April to 4th May with family. It was pretty fun but I think I was more tired than excited. Had a great time with family and I kinda miss them now ever since they went back to SG this morning. I've been feeling nothing but tired these days. I'm not sure how I can explain this tiredness...Everyday without fail at about 130pm onward, I will feel extremely sleepy. The kind of sleepy that once you get to close your eyes or get to sit down, you will fall asleep. It's that bad and I hope this is just my body adjusting to the change in the school's timetable and not something wrong with my body/health. I've been recently given the option to extend my school studies for another 6 months. With my initial plan, I should be going back to SG by the end of June. I'm still kinda divided in my decision, whether to stay or to end this journey. From my heart's perspective I would like to stay in Japan for as long as I can. Why? Because there is nothing back in SG waiting for me. I would be going back to my boring and mundane lifestyle. From a logical perspective, it would be wiser to go back home and find a job. Since I've used up almost 30% of my savings. But, like they said, you only live once so I hope I'm not making a wrong move here. Oh well, it's time for me to end this post. The Japanese keyboard is pretty hard to type. I'm not sure why their Backspace is so TINY. The Enter button is huge tho. Pretty strange layout.
