Strange feeling

You can never imagine how bad the situation was for me in the morning today.

It all started when we were waiting to collect our luggages at the conveyor belt. Then my luggage took very very long to finally appear. AND THEN, THE NEXT THING I REALISED WAS: ONE OF THE LUGGAGE WHEEL CAME OFF! Omg can. So I reported to the airport people there. And they told me to wait for them outside that place. But the moment van and i went out, we were like bombarded with all the Jap Lions! They were so enthusiastic and the only thing they did was to direct us to the lift, telling us to go upstairs. Of course I tried telling one of the Lions that my luggage was damaged and I had to wait for the airport crew to give me a document to sign or something. But he just nodded his head and told me to get into the lift. I was already QUITE kan chiong. Its quite only because this is not the worst yet. So we all got into the lift and went one level up.

They led us to this smoke-filled and strangers-filled room. I mean they told us to leave our trolleys and luggages outside, but haven't go in yet. The moment I parked properly my trolley, this guy (the translator) came to me and asked if I was the leader. Then, he dragged me into the room and introduced me to my host family. Oh wait, let me rewind a bit. Because when we were still downstairs, Van and June and some others already met their host families. But nobody came to look for me! So I was even more kan chiong liao.

Ok back to meeting my host family. After I said hi and everything to them, I went to sit at the place we were supposed to sit. But the moment after I sat down, the translator came again and told me this shocking piece of news: "You are the leader from Singapore? There will be a ceremony (dunno what). You have to make a speech later. A thank you speech. Did you prepare? You're going to say in Japanese or English?" JUST KILL ME. I wasn't even prepared for a speech like that!

Don't forget, there's not only the speech problem. There's also my luggage problem! So before I could even think of how to crap up a short speech, some other person called me out of the room cause the airport crew wanted to speak to me. I can't really remember how many times I walked in and out of the room liao. Because the situation was just so chaotic, at least for me. Luckily van helped me think of a few sentences to say for the speech!

Blah blah blah. The whole ceremony finally ended and when all the YEs were giving their namecards to the Lions and their host families, I was robbed of my time again because the airport crew wanted me to sign a form. They claimed that they will repair my luggage in 2 weeks and I'll get it before I leave for Tokyo. I really hope nothing will go wrong and there'll be no delays whatsoever. I don't have so much courage left for another round of shock.

My host family consists of: the father, mother, grandma, 5 year old boy and a 9 year old boy. The kids are so cute! The grandma is damn nice. And she even showed me photographs of their (elder boy and his grandma) holiday to Singapore in August this year! Of course I cant speak jap and their eng not very good. But luckily, the father have this electronic dictionary. So we just keep typing what we wanna say. Haha! Quite funny.

I ate ramen for lunch, then the rice ball thing for dessert and sushi for dinner! Actually I was so full the whole day that I had to like force myself to finish my food during both meals! But the food was nice, duh!

Oh and they have Wii here!! So I ended up playing every single game of the Wii Sports and also a few others with the 9 year old kid. His name is Haruki btw. The whole family damn on! Esp when i keep striking for the bowling. Haha! Then we also folded origami. My fav is this dog whose head can bob/move up and down. Lol.

Do you realise something is missing? Yes, and I have bad news.
BAD NEWS: There's something wrong with my SD card or the tablet's SD card reader! So i cant even access the photos using my comp. I'm gonna use another SD card tmr and hopefully it'll work. So disappointing right!

It's 10pm here liao. So I have to get offline cos Im using the lan wire and Im in the living room now. I feel kinda paiseh.

It's only the first day and I'm already missing S'pore! Oh no. I think cause it's the first day thats why I'm feeling like that. And somemore so many bad things happened in the morning..Haix.

I hope I can come online everynight! Byebye! :(

Fearless

Somehow, I'm still not ready to accept the fact that I'll be leaving in less than 8 hours. Okay, make it 5 hours since being at the airport marks the beginning of it all. I think it's because of all the unfilled blanks and unclarified questions.

Somehow, I'm begging for more time. Just 1 more week, just 1 more day.

Somehow, everyone's either envious or saying things like "its just one month" or "just don't think about silly things and have fun".

But somehow, I know God has everything planned for me.

I'll do my part. And he'll do his.

Chaines

It's akin to waiting patiently. Hard to master, yet you still try again and again.
