❀ 春コース ~Week 3~ ❀

<April 15th to April 21st>

Day 15: Otomate Cafe and 乙女ロード

Green and I decided on this day for our cafe date.
another Yaoi Anime fan also went with us（*＾＾*) フフ

after ordering, we were told that we could take pictures of the cafe~
it was decorated with CGs from different Otomate games.
(〃^∇^)o i was happy to see a few familiar 風間千景's CGs from 薄桜鬼

we each ordered a drink, main course and dessert >▽<*
my hot green tea and cherry blossom thick toast is inspired from 薄桜鬼.
the Amnesia オムライス was really yummy too~~

finishing, we walked off our heavy meals at 乙女ロード.
managed to find two otome game doujinshi among all the Yaoi ones

Day 16: スカイツリー + カピバラさん

had Tonkatsu for lunch before meeting with the rest at 秋葉
was guided to スカイツリー, the activity for this day.
(ﾉ^∇^)ﾉ bananas and W❤C at ソラマチ, カピバラさん at 東京駅~

Day 17: パーティー & 池袋

played かるた with 卵先生, teachers in training.
was told i should smack down the right card instead of pointing to it..
do not follow the way i did it in the picture below (/_・)

my shoes were literally falling apart so i got a new pair at 池袋
had a hard time parting with my ¥ 3675 but finally got this book~
Otomate Manix オトメイト マニアックス Vol. 3 GET!

Day 18: 休み

again, went back early after having lunch
i know it's a waste of time but was afraid of being exhausted

>ヘ＜ have a long journey out of Tokyo the weekend.

Day 19: Ring Making (五反田)

made this ring out of silver at one academy. ≡`-v-)
i think it's too normal and can be done anywhere
would much prefer if we could make something Japan inspired.

Day 20: 温泉 @ 群馬 (1)

meeting time was 6am (ρ.-) rode the bus for 7 hrs with breaks between

during the trip, we were all given a box lunch to eat.

also rode the train for a while. too bad all the Sakura also had fallen ・_・

桜を見たかったのに…

and... it started to snow on our way to the hotel!

that totally caught me off guard. we were all not prepared at all

but still enjoyed dipping in 露天風呂 in midst of the fresh snow~~

Day 21: 温泉 @ 群馬 (2)

and when we woke, everything was fully covered with snow!
the scene made me mistake that it was the winter season
only thing that made me think otherwise was my thin jacket.

first, we headed to a festival that was supposed to celebrate spring

 the scenery was stunning even though it was freezing.

the winds were so strong ；ﾟдﾟ) temperature: 2°C...

everyone had this pot rice for lunch and nobody liked it
despite the cold, i bought this interesting ice-cream made of こんにゃく
it tasted like a refrigerated chewy fish cake ∂_∂

all the お土産 from 群馬 below~~

春コース ~Week 2~ εїз εїз εїз

<April 8th to April 14th>

Day 8: 浅草

after school, we had to ride the metro to get to 浅草
at the sight of the infamous gate, it was picture time Σ【◎】ω￣*)
昼ごはんは丼～そのあと、ソフトクリーム!

walked along the streets and tried some well-known snacks.

those that were made on the spot were quickly grabbed by the crowd

at the temple, i drew a 'ill' fortune paper so i had to tie it up... ´Д`

Day 9: 明治神宮 (原宿)

this time instead of a temple, we visited a shrine.
（*＾ワ＾*）prayed for my wishes by writing on 絵馬
in earnest, i wrote in three languages~~

also bought a 'bring in luck' amulet. as advised, i kept it in my bag.
went back to the inn early and read a special issue of B's Log ★

Day 10: Ghibli Museum

a picture of me with the box from Laputa: Castle in the Sky

i love the theme song so much~ it is so soothing.

´ー´ probably the only reason for me to like the museum

a interesting pear flavoured ice cream from the cafe there.
it didn't taste good though ￣ヘ￣)┌ it was really icy...
ending with souvenir for my mother and Laputa theme song.

Day 11: 秋葉 & 東京駅

there wasn't any activity for this day so i tagged along with some friends.
v*'ω' after lunch, i stayed with them for a while at Sega in 秋葉
left earlier to get myself some Tokyo Banana and snacks from 東京駅~

Day 12: Food Replicas (河童橋)

learned how to make 天ぷらサンプル from wax
it is said to be the old fashioned way as people now make it from resin.


another unglam picture ￣｡￣ always woke up late thus no make...
under guidance, i made these~ i think it looks pretty good, don't they?

Day 13: 休み

wanted to rest today so i could enjoy the next day~
 decided to go 横浜 with my classmate & friend from the same course.
(－ρ－)........ｚｚｚ

Day 14: 横浜

after a long train ride, we rode this red bus meant for sightseeing. ^･ｪ･)ﾉ
made a stop at アンパンマン博物館~ it was meant for children actually...
we just browsed through the shopping part that was free entry~

the three of us were still hungry after having うどん (笑)
they bought a アンパンマン's face bun while i had these plain little cakes.

Cup Noodles Museum! this is what we came for~
i was really excited to create my own cup noodle ヾ(´^ω^)ノ♪

＾∀＾ did some quick doodles with the markers provided.
must: draw in between the two red lines so it will be safe to consume
after picking my choice of soup base and topping, we did the following:

and it's done! all we have to do left is to put it in a bag and pump gas
leaving the museum to 中華街, we saw this sundae in たい焼き！
the queue was long so i couldn't try it...

as expected, China Town was similar to the one in Singapore.

i really wanted to try the pork buns with the shape of a pig i saw on tv...

couldn't find any so had to settle for a plain one instead (_ _|||) 

we went back and had dinner together near the hotel.
my grabs from the two museums. ｷｭ─ love the ドキンちゃん cookie ball~
