I’m gonna rain on you.

Teaser shots for the day. taken by zemotion

I retired really early on day 1 cos I didn’t sleep on the plane the day before.

Anyway, woke up early to prepare for the an epic photoshoot. I think my hair took 1.5hrs to do.

I feel like a genius.

I applied for my leave last Sept and I was just guessing the dates when the sakuras would bloom in Tokyo. And guess wad? The day before I arrived, they started blooming.

My timing is impeccable.
And i heard it’s going to rain tomorrow and all the flowers would fall off. Isn’t the timing just awesome??????
Kami-sama watches over me~!!! *w*

And zer0 and I really have to thank Chris for helping us with everything. From taking us around, to carrying stuff for us and translating.

At one point of time when I was dressing up with the kimono, we had to ask for help and these 2 middle-aged women came and help us with the kimono. I was basically dressed in 5mins, obi and all.
;_; They are so kind.

And along the way there were other middle-aged BFFs who adjusted my obi and kimono. it’s like changing stylists every 15mins. Awesome shit.

We headed to Nippori in hope of finding awesome Japanese parasols for another shoot but no avail… so we headed to Asakusa instead.

That place is like Kyoto in Tokyo.
*w*
okay maybe not… cos I’ve never been there. But it is what I wld’ve imagined it to be. Huge temple. Big red lantern and rows of shops selling traditional japanese wares.

Anyway, I was being dumb by bringing out only my cash and forgot all about my credit card cos I thought I was just going out for a photoshoot. -_-;;;

But I spent a great deal of moolah at Asakusa.

Japanese Parasols

Kanzashi
These things are epically expensive but these pics do not do them justice~~

This was today’s dinner. Beef cubes at Pepper Lunch.

And that concludes day 2 when I’m sitting at the laptop still wearing my socks. XD
