Minoh Park

Golden Week!!!!!!

Time for taking a break from class....
Time for traveling....
Time for eating until die...
Time to do something hot!!!
Time to make our both eyes open!!!

According to the definition of the dictionary in my life, Golden Week represents for a week break from classes in my university, which means you can do anything during the holiday, without worrying anything. Just go out and do loud for what you dreamed for.....Every people in this area are waiting for this time, because for them, it is a time for travel whether inside or outside, time for coming back to their hometown, time for enjoying with their relatives and not forget to the ones who like to take this opportunity by helping victims in disaster area as a volunteer.

Today was my first holiday. Like what I was expected, the traffic was very bad, traffic Jam anywhere especially in a tunnel to Takarazuka. Besides, the shinkansen and airport also were very crowded but still  lower than last year. Maybe, this is the chance for them to go anywhere before entering their hectic life again.

Today was a great day for me as the weather was very good, not too hot and not too cold. Just a perfect day to make a move to anywhere, especially outdoor activities. So, I planned to go a place called Minoh Park with fellow seniors. Although the place was not near within our place, still we can went there by bicycle. This was the cycling day for us today. Have a sweat and make an exercises for health...huhu :)

Cycling to Minoh really took time. After we arrived, we parked our bicycle and made a  move going inside the Park. This were several images what we saw inside the park...I only could say one word...'Amazing'

 just arrived for several minutes

 take a time from a long walk

 this is momiji tenpura, a rare food which only can be found in several places only

 taking a time for food

 sign board for our destination

 absolutely wonderful waterfall..very big and a nice view

  wow..i can feel the coldness of the water

We had gone through this place for 60% ( my senior said), walking and looking through the beautiful of the nature, making my spiritual became fresh again after breathing a fresh  air within the park. Beside that, we had a chance to meet a woman, very very old woman, which is 97 years old and had entered TV for last time. We also were not forget about an Uncle, who approached and greeted us during the walking.

Actually, we had through a difficulties when we are coming home. WE LOST!!!!...hahaha

my phone was not working as usual, making us to guess the way to come back home. We made it, although it took a lot of time than usual..just regard for our safety and I was very glad.

1 day had been used for me to go through this and now still remains 6 days. I am wondering where I should go after this? huhu~


ps:  dari petang ke malam berjalan...penatnya~

still exist?

I thought Sakura has been gone for this year, represent no beautiful flowers will exist anymore on the road. There ought to be one week from now since the blossom from Sakura has gone, changing with a normal flower, which is green in colour. Maybe, some of the people who do not know about sakura wonder how its look like, so look at this picture.

The flowers is filled with white colour, making all place look very beautiful whether on the road or park once in a year. When the flower is changing to white, they seem said as 'mankai', the process where the flower come out again. Just around 3 weeks, as I can saw in my place, the blossom will fade away and loss from Japan, making preparation for coming event for the next year. In some case, student start to study in University as Sakura is a symbol of starting lecture in Universities. This is means if the Sakura comes early, the the lecture start early and vise versa.Absolutely, Sakura will start to grow from upper region to lower region in Japan.

To prove the analogy , some examples can be shown as Tokyo starts Lecture early rather than Osaka.In this year, If I was not mistaken, there are Universities in Tokyo start the lecture on  7, 8 April, whereas in Kansai region, such as Kyoto or Osaka on 11 April. Although the differences were not too high, but it indicates the analogy is still true.

Yet,  yesterday...

along the way for lunch, suddenly I saw a beautiful, fantastic flowers are arranged on the road and making me stopped on the road to think for a while. "Is the sakura still exist? or this is just a normal flower..only that is not realised for a year.." that are some of my unanswerable questions, leaving in my mind. Although the colour is not white, it is red or pink or whatever, but until now, what I realised, the beautiful of nature still exist around my surrounding, at any time.

ps: ehh...

text book

well, if someone enter a new semester, it's mean they have to buy textbook. That was done by me along this week, repeating to search books, but I did not find all I wanted. So, I had to check one more time on textbook's list in order to search these text books.

Unfortunately, I had to go to 2 different places, just to buy the books and the distance between these 2 places were very far, in my thought. Some my time lost just to walk to the book store. Even the worst case was when I entered the book store, looking for the textbook with list that I hold tightly in my hand, ended with I could not found the book, even I knew the title of the book. So, I had  to go out from the shop and took another book list on a bench. Even you know the title, you cant easily find it because there are too many books plus a lot of shelves.

However, the problem solved with the new list that I just took  by searching the number of shelves to find the books. How easy if I know the number of shelves because the list that I hold before this did not show shelves number. It was only written the title of the book and the code number.

Anyway, new semester has came and the school has started. I get to go along the hectic classes day by day. I wish this semester would end quickly but at the same time, I prefer no. Absolutely some classes are fun but not at all.

Maybe I just need some motivation for the new semester, wishing this will be the best semester rather than before and hoping all doing well along this time. For people who just get to a new semester, happy new semester and wish for a great fortune to you all , that is said by me.

 some of the text books use by me

 
that's all

Ps: kelass, kelas dan kela....

sightseeing around my places

Long time for me not updated this blog because of my computer problem. Anyway, I thought about starting my blog from this time and maybe, there will be lot of post I'll write. So, just saying good luck for myself for my new resolution..huhu

Saying regarding time, it was a year since I reached here and also lot of memories I created with all my friends. This time, I would like to story about my friends came here for visiting me and what we done so far.

2 of my friends, Luqman and Hafi came here before the class started. It a long journey because their house was not near with me, taking about 3-4 hours by trains, if you get on the right track. if not, maybe taking more time than you ever thought.

As for Hafi, he went to my house by car along with his seniors after sending his another seniors back to Malaysia in Kansai International Airport or by nickname, Kankou. His seniors had to stay in my house for a night because they were going to take English test tomorrow. Its not a problem for them to search my house because majority of cars in Japan are installed with GPS. It is very convenience, easy to use and making you not lose in tracks. We set to see in train station near my house and as promised, I finally met Hafi there and guided them to my house.

As for Luqman, he might got trouble when the journey because for him, it was the first time to Osaka, making he arrived at the train station at night. Fortunately, we met in the day, it was enough. In the night, hafi showed his cooking skill by cooking 'ikan goreng' and 'sayur ___?' ..haha.....My role only to cook simple rice. After that, we ate together.

On early morning of Sunday, Hafi's seniors had to rush for exam but we still sleeping at that time...~..
OK, at somewhat time, we wake up and breakfast , then going out for shopping...Yeah, its true..Shopping time.

We not targeted the place too far, but only near Osaka, maybe takes 40 minutes ++ from my house. Of course, we just not only shopping but also tried something new, included me by riding Ferris Wheel on Hep Five. This is the video we recorded while we were riding or during the rotation of the Ferris Wheel.


  
not only that, some pictures also present here.

 what was he pointing at?

 

taken before ride, finished after ride

next destination, Round one for bowling but...

We ought to go for bowling but after knew the people who booked were too much, we surrendered and changed plan to Karaoke..I just can write 3 words for this...ha ha ha

Things not always right. What amazed me in the Karaoke's room... Massage chair included here!! wow..how happy I was, for the first time trying for the chair. So comfortable and brilliant...making my fatigue went away.

 lol Luqman!!

For the next day, we went to USJ (Universal Studio Japan)...for me, it was free for ticket because I had annual card. So, I played same game but not for 'Jaws', the long que without too much excitement.

 "yeah,, I arrived!!"

 like something interesting for this night~

 too bored until didnt know what to do

 time for JAWS!!

 Spiderman's working place
