Text of the page (random words):
entry with a throbbing and heavy heart this weekend had been a long one for me literally while my friends are happily partying away the whole weekend i had to struggle with working on shipments that had gone very very wrong the challenge was also upped when it came to trying to contact people two schoolds there were the uncontactables and the refusing to respond there was also the odd one who rang to inform of another shipment issue which had no case for claims but insisted on asking as the sop modus operandi required then of course there was the system server maintenance and breakdown that didn t allow log ons even from remote so basically everything seemed bloody screwed up and whilst all that was going on my mind had been very occupied with the well being of my beloved pooch pepsi my mini schnauzer of 14 years had been very sick for quite some time now daddy had previously mentioned that if he has to go to a vet anymore he s not allowed to be warded reason being we ve been told by the vet that pepsi is very old if he needs to be warded for observation of any kind and were to act up and needs a procedure to be done given his age he might not be able to take it and i personally felt that we didn t want him to go under the knife either at this age but this weekend daddy rang told me to consider euthanasia pepsi was suffering bad he s quite blind and deaf suffered a stroke not too long ago now paralysed on the left he can t walk by himself and cries all the time mummy ron have been taking turns taking care of him but it s also taking a toll on their health cos they jump up at night whenever pepsi cries or bumps into something while struggling to move around i felt that it was probably also the best option for everyone to let the poor boy go i said that to mummy and daddy over the phone but after i hung up i felt very very guilty i could almost hear pepsi cry maybe i shouldn t have agreed was i wrong after all i was the one who brought him home 14 years ago when he was still a teeny weeny little 4 week old pup i suddenly panicked i didn t know what to do cos i felt so guilty of passing the sentence in a way there was good intention of ending his and everyone else suffering but on the other hand it was inhumane to take his life away when he s really struggling hard to stay alive to be with us i don t know what i should do mummy suggested that i should drop by today to take a last look at the old boy and perhaps bring him to the vet to get it done but i didn t have the guts to daddy rang again today to say that the boy was quiet not crying much i just mumbled an ok daddy says will keep me updated i assumed nothing happened and went on my chores as usual but i m still very heavy hearted tmr i have to go to work i have to look professional behave professional as requested and get thru the very long tuesday i will have a guest in town and will have to swim thru the fishy day packed with meetings as well i m not sure how i might survive the day at all now flashes of pepsi in his younger healthier days occupy my mind what should i do posted by princess carol at 11 12 pm 2 comments wednesday may 13 2009 tokyo trip kinugawa onsen part 2 day 2 in japan was meetings meetings meetings budgets targets expectations etc etc etc we were already so drained in the 1st 2 hours plus my flu cough the dry air my nose throat eyes were all pretty choked up i kept sniffing tearing and coughing away at one point charlie commented that even though budgets were very high there was no need for me to cry hahaha no i wasn t crying of course i was combating the clogged plumbing up in my nose which caused my eyes to tear also lah lunch that afternoon was a short 5 mins walk to a quaint little town away from the hotel there was a neat little wooden building which served lunch most of us has japanese curry rice again fluffy rice grains paired with fragrant sweet but mildly spicy curry it was cold outside and i was quite hungry so when lunch was served i started eating very quickly and forgot to take pictures grrr but i remembered when they served my dessert though hahaha meeting continued again in the afternoon draggy as usual dinner that night was the same place as the 1st night similar but more food this time the atmosphere was more relaxed we joked more laughed more in fact laughed so hard especially when kevin wannong were talking about family names kevin the joker never failed to perk us all up we had a lot more alcohol on the 2nd night as compared to the 1st night more beer and more sake somehow all the sakes i had in japan were very nice after dinner i headed to the onsen again 温泉が気持ちいいですね day 3 we checked out after breakfast and headed for our road trip back to tokyo another 2 hours on the bus we got back into the city around lunch time dropped our bags in the office and headed out to the convenience stores to buy lunch a norm for many office workers in tokyo everyone would just pick up a bento from either a street vendor or one of the many convenience stores easy fast and not as expensive as dinning in one of the eateries which was always jam packed after lunch we worked as usual in the office as appraisals and discussions were conducted then in the evening we headed to the nearby sardonyx hotel to check in quick shower and then off to dinner see time was so critical everything was like jammed together with no time to waste dinner on day 3 was sushi lots and lots of the freshest and bestest is there such a word we had a lot fun that night over dinner everyone was more relaxed we sat on tatami mats ate 毛かに hairy crabs いくら salmon roe 寿司詰め合わせ assorted sushi 刺身盛り合わせ assorted sashimi and more and of course the beer sake never stopped flowing we booked the entire 2nd floor dinning room and every corner was ikura sake like bt said eat until orgasm wahahaha but it was the company that counts great ppl good conversations completely wonderful night day 4 was r r we started the morning visiting tsukiji fish market tuna auction and because it was really freezing that morning we went off to have piping hot ramen shiok to the max then late morning we wandered off to asakusa took the train there saw lots of pretty japanese ladies in their kimonos going to the grand old temple to offer their prayers ask for blessings there was also lots of shopping just outside of asakusa lots of fun we had after asakusa we went to ginza i arranged to meet my old pal rumiko and i was sooooooooooooooooo happy to see her missed her so much after she left us we went for monjayaki and then the rest of the girls went roaming around shopping while i caught up with rumiko on gossips bitchy mich came by after that to join in our girly gossips hahahaha later that afternoon we parted ways as rumiko went snow boarding and mich brought us to more shopping around ginza haiyan wanted to buy a dslr camera for her hubby the rest of the ladies wanted to buy cutesy jap make up toilettries and accesories etc vincent i went wandering to look mobile phones so tempted to buy them cos they re not expensive and so many nice designs that cannot be found in singapore but the sales guy was saying that only certain models can be used outside japan not all bah oh we went to tokyu hands too it s a really huge place with everything under one roof everything means everything you can think of from handy home diy stuff to toys to make up to sationery to clothes to bath accessories to handbags to luggages to gifts to kitchenware to baking stuff to electrical applices to whatever if i didn t remember wrongly it s 9 storeys high that night charlie took us all to a nice dinner bbq japanese style i don t remember the name of the place unfortunately i was quite tired and it was very cold that night everyone was also very hungry mich had dropped us all back at the hotel and then we jumped into a taxi and headed off to dinner with charlie giving indtructions to the cab driver over the phone dinner was really good charlie did all the cooking and needless to say when eating out with charlie always expect the best and the unexpected the beef we had that night was really good stuff kobe beef which we ate raw beef sashimi then we also had raw beef liver we were cannibals for the night thks to charlie brown but of course there were also gother nice and surprising interesting stuff we ate over the grill see pics over all it was another good trip learnt lots as always great to catch up with collegues we speak to everyday but don t get to see all so often great oppotunity to meet old friends and new experiences and new sights too most importantly expectations were made known targets were set now we ll depend on captain s directions so that we can all sail in the right direction ahoy posted by princess carol at 8 08 pm no comments tokyo trip kinugawa onsen part 1 ok ok i know many of you have been asking me why no updates there are quite a few reasons number 1 i ve been really busy with work number 2 i ve been travelling number 3 a lot of events and things have taken place and happened at this point of blogging i m in one of the worst of moods very stressed and extremely tired in short burnt out but since i m waiting for my nissin cup noodles to cook i ll put up some pics of one of my trips in february during the cny period yep i know it s now may but anyway now i m blogging again another biz trip to tokyo with all the good food great sights and catching up with old friends again this time we travelled went to kinugawa 2 hours north of tokyo kinugawa or 鬼怒川 literally means angry demon river was actually a very popular place for hotsprings onsen but apparently in the 1990s the economic recession forced the entire town to go bust me in the a380 upper deck my seat had side cabinets to keep my barang happy vincent s 1st time in the a380 and yes after supper 1 movie and it s time to catch up on the much needed sleep good night anyway after flying 6 5hours on the a380 we arrived in a very cold narita airport on wednesday morning it was only abt 5 deg cel i think we took the airport limousine to to tokyo city air terminal in hakozaki bus ride was abt 1 hour from there charlie picked us up and we headed to the office to drop off our bags and then have breakfast skyline of tokyo 8am we walked onto this bridge and realised it was so nice there were ducks swimming in it too i was quite tempted to walk in and ask how many million yen it would costs for a sl63amg pity they weren t open yet such pretty flowers outside the car showroom see pretty right car s fall sick in tokyo breakfast was at denny s restaurant yes i know an american restaurant in tokyo but we were just hungry and denny s was easy mich took us there and after a nice hot bowl of ramen and yes they served ramen in denny s but not nice we headed back to the office to work time passed really fast over there stanley arrived later in the morning and made his way to the office too we were all happily chatting when he declared he was hungry then we realised it was lunch time but none of the rest of us were really hungry yet because we had our ramen not too long ago hahaha so stanley waited another hour or so before we all head out for tonkatsu よしの yoshino the place where we had our とんかつ pork cutlet rice still in preparation apparently but they were ready to serve us a quaint little place the menu my pork cutlet rice おいしいね mich was paying for our lunch walking along the back alley to the office tiny shop in the corner of an alley the apartments are soooo tiny you d be lucky is it s any more than 30sqm each wanna guess what these are nope not letter boxes they re locker boxes for office keys so that there s no need to make so many keys for each staff later that afternoon kevin arrived then followed by wannong haiyan at about 4pm we packed up and made our way to kinugawa the 2 hour bus ride ever seen me in speckys nope i ve perfect eye sight these fake speckys belong to mich good for hiding my eye bags haiyan was tickled pink to see me in speckys peach flavoured beer tasted quite good so strange to see the guys sitting like that in a row hehehe i have funny thoughts eiko yoko 2 very sweet ladies who took very good care of me during the trip i was quite sick that time flu sore throat cough etc etc like what a doctor might say full package and irritating charlie won t let ppl sleep in peace he goes around taking pics of anyone who dozes off finally we stopped for a toilet break somewhere very very very cold this place has a supermarket and lots and lots and lots of vending machines that s mich trying to buy something hot to keep himself awake are these ciggies expensive i don t smoke so i have no clue but 320 yen is approx sgd 5 30 for a pack sounds cheap to me the kinugawa royal hotel was actually pretty old looked quite forlorn in fact but i have to say it was still considered very clean mich checked us all in and there were a mixture of modern rooms with beds and traditional ryokan rooms with tatami i went for the ryokan rooms of course something different since i m all the way in japan views of the exterior of the hotel views from my ryokan inside my ryokan and every evening there ll be a fresh set of sweets hot green tea waiting for me in my room we had very little time to freshen up before dinner but i managed to take a quick shower and then head downstairs for a very sumptious dinner there were so much food to eat like one of those scenes you d see from the tv program japan hour steamed crabs grilled fish seafood stew a pot of rice cooking in the traditional tetsugama cast iron rice pot sushi sashimi lots and lots of and a lot of other little side dishes which were very interesting i can t remember what they all were but i think tofu pickles seaweed and such of course we had a lot of beer sake the rice was very very delicious very nice plump and fluffy grains which were very fragrant too i don t normally eat a lot of rice but when i was there i ate a lot which explains how fat i am now lah _ look at all the food there s more that can t fit on the tray the sashimi platter yours truly here with eiko haiyan me that evening after dinner i went to the onsen it was in the hotel and had both indoors and outdoors and no it was not mixed bath males had their own onsen and females had our own seperated in case some of u sickos are thinking otherwise and it was really relaxing to just soak in the hot water relaxed all the muscles took away the tension strain and anxiety from all the pre travel prep work the travelling time itself and revitalised my tired and dehydrated skin quite a bit i also found that i slept better that night did i mention that i was sick just days before i left for japan caught a nasty throat infection and didn t have time to see the doc so when i was there i was literally croaking and coughing away ok i should pause here for now and post somemore pics in part 2 of my tokyo trip posted by princess carol at 12 33 pm 2 comments labels food fun stuff gathering onsen p...
