Today passed by in a blur once again, spend the day moping at Ueno and found solace in Ueno Park (finally, somewhere that feels like there is space to breathe). Went to the National Museum of Tokyo and found their collection rather impressive. I love the samurai swords they have in collection as well as the kiminos, but still I think the collection pales in comparison with the exhibits I saw in Sydney Museum of Modern Art. It is rather strange but I suppose these days it is very common for museums to acquire more foreign artifacts. Sigh. It is a pity though.
There are many homeless people sleeping on the benches of Ueno Park. It is depressing to see so many of them, and they are mostly elderly folks. I wonder how they survive the cold? It is terrible.
Then after spending a long time there I got caught in the rain walking back from Ueno Park to the train station. Freezing weather and rain..and I was wearing flip flops today. Yeah, how smart huh.
Came home and finally met my roommates and realised that all of us are Singaporeans. Even though I didn't get to know another girl who was sharing the room, the 2 girls that I spoke to said she is also from Singapore. Found out that they are really friendly and we might be hanging out tomorrow night, and the day after as well. They are psychology undergrads from NUS on exchange in Hong Kong University, and they are having their holidays now. Lovely girls, very talkative..
Just glad that things are really starting to look up from this point on. Meeting Debbie tomorrow! Can't wait. Anyone wants me to give her kisses on behalf? *grin*
I think I might be coming down with a fever though. Going to bed now.
