Ha, anu Daw?
Grabe, pati public aquarium inde ko pinatawad.. ehehe.. Well, I went to Sea Paradise Yokohama, with 4 of my friends to have a good quality time together, also, to practice some more shootings, and most of all, to experience riding roller coasters and other rides here in Japan…
So basically, I just shoot whatever I like… Never did it crossed my mind to read every english word wherever I go.. Then One of my friend told me “dba nangongolekta ka ng maling english” and then he showed me this menu:
- Plane Dog.. Airplane? Plane ng geometry? anung klaseng food to?
And then I just burst into laughter.. Then i thought that it was all over… But i was wrong… Well, there were alot more..
So while walking and exploring other places, we entered a mini aquarium for dolphins.. It not that big.. Its like a cave where the walls and ceilings are glasses and you will see the sea creatures there.. So its like you are under the sea.. Well of course, I dont have time to idle my self, so I started taking pictures.. The funny thing was that, the first time I took a picture, I never noticed that I the glass was near.. It was very clear, and guess what?? I scratched the glass with my lense.. Luckily, I have a Lense Protector (I dont know what its called), with rough edges (actually not edges kasi circle siya.. So lets say na rough circumference) and inde na scratch yung mismong lense and protector.. yey… Then after the scratch, medyo lumayo na ako sa glass, then naghintay ng mga 7 seconds before looking for other subjects…
Ito namang mga friends ko, talagang nihanap pa nila.. tapos nivideohan pa… ahahaaha..
In the video, ako yung nasa gitna, then papunta sa left, then inde na ako kita sa camera.. then at around 0:14, you will see me again na nagpipichur… then on 0:17, you will hear me swearing at the glass… and at around 0:25, you will the voice of my friend kuya Pot saying “ay nagasgas”… and on 0:55 Glad focuses the video on the gasgas… so here was the script:
*scratch sound na narinig ni kuya Pot
Ako: ay siet nagasgasan..
kuya Pot: ay nagasgas
Dabbie: ha?
Ako and kuya Pot: nagasgasan *pointing to glass
Kuya James: asan??!!??
Kuya Pot: Ayan oh!!
Xave: Kunwari inde natin tinitignan..
… inde ko na maintindihan yung next, basta may bata na akong narinig, then tumawa kami, then si Glad nivideohan..
Glad: ni-narate na yung gasgas at nifocus pa.. ahaha
Then after taking pictures of almost all of the fishes there, pumasok kami sa loob.. Then ewan ko kung anung tawag dun sa animal na yun.. Parang dolphin na mataba na color white.. Inde ko siya mapichuran ng maayos kasi ang kulit niya. Para siyang baliw, kasi paikot ikot lang talaga siya… Taas, then baba… Taas, then baba.. Ayun.. then nililinis pa ang kanyang aquarium.. Kaya parang kadiri, ang daming nagflo-float na mga pupu… ahaha…
- Pupu sa aquarium
And then on the way out, nag group pic pa kami, actually, sila lang pala kasi ako yung kumuha nung pic… ahaha.. then andun na din yung pic with the fishes.. hehe.. talagang huli lagi yung mga personal pics weh.. ewan ko ba kung bakit.. parang yung place muna, then after ng lahat, personal pics… buti nalang maliit lang yung place kaya inde na malayo yung nibalikan namin.. ehehe.. And on the way out, ito yung nakita namin.. Napansin to ng friend kong si Glad, kasi siya eh mahilig sa color blue.. ehehe..
- Anu ba talaga kuya, Blue o Bule??
And then after this, papunta na kami sa sea show.. Hmm, dun sa building ng sea show, medyo madaming sea creatures din.. 4th floor ata yung show, then below nun is mga aquariums aquariums.. hehe… The show started at 3 pm, and mga 2.30 palang nun.. But we decided to go there kasi madaming tao sobra.. So as to have good seats, umakyat na kami.. And ayun, buti naman at ok yung napuwestuhan namin.. Tamang tama lang for 55mm-200mm lense.. Kaso inde ko masyadong nakuha yung pinaka buo nung stage.. Lalo na nung super performance yung dolphins.. Eh nahihiya akong umakyat pa, ang dami din kasing tao.. kaya nagfocus nalang ako sa isang side.. ehehe..
- Sexy Pose
Natatawa ako dito, kasi ang laki laki nyam tapos ang bagal nya maglakad.. heehehe.. Pero komedyante to, at magaling din umarte.. Panalo.. ehehe..
- Darna!!
Natutuwa ako.. Kasi ang hirap kunan ng shots yung mga dolphins.. Inde mo alam kung saan sila lalabas.. Kaya dapat mabilis kang mag tutok at mabilis ka din mag click.. dahil kung inde, putol lahat ng shots na makukuha mo.. Kaya ang nigawa ko, nakatingin ako sa baba, then maga-assume ako kung san sila lalabas depende kung saan sila papunta, then ihahanda ko na yung camera, then sisilip sa view finder, then biglang click… ehehe.. all of that, in just 2 to 3 seconds.. At syempre, pag nahuli ka ng shots, or pag nagkamali ka ng ayos ng camera, ganito ang mangyayari:
- Toinks, putol
ahaha.. dapat patayo yung orientation na nigawa ko.. inde ko kasi nafore-see yung gagawin nilang act… ahahaha… Putol tuloy yung babae…
Then after the show, nagpichur pichuran kami sa ibaba.. Sa mga aquariums aquariums… And dun na namin nakita ang talent ng Japanese pag dating sa English.. ehehe..
- Kung ay Patrick Star sa Spongebob, meron ding LobSTAR
- Ha??… eating… then… Ang gulo mo kuya!!
- Ito inde ko talaga magetz… ahahaa
- Hmm..No Comment
Sa totoo lang, sa sobrang dilim nung place, ang mas finocus ko is mga wrong grammar kesa sa mga sea creatures… ahaha.. Ang hirap kasi kunan ng pics yung sea creatures, kaya mga signs nalang.. ehehe..
Then nagulat kami, inde pa pala tapos yung show na pinanggalingan namin.. Kahit dun sa ibaba may ibang shows pa..
- Best Show of All
Kaso sa sobrang tagal ng kanilang show, umalis na din kami.. In fairness, ang daming nagstop sa area namin, at nakikinood din.. Kami naman ni kuya Pot, nagvoi-voice over sa kanila.. Grabe.. Adik lang… ahaha…
After this, napansin namin na medyo late na pala.. Around 4 or 4.30 na ata yun, and inde pa kami masyadong nakakapag rides… Kaya nag decide kami na magrides na at masulit pa lalo yung binayad namin… So sumakay kami dun sa parang umiikot na disk… Well, pataas baba lang siya.. Inde siya nakakatakot or nakakasuka.. Inde naman kami katulad nung babae sa picture na to
Left most Gurl sa Pichur
Mabagal yung ikot nung ride na yun, at makikita mo talaga yung buong Sea Paradise.. Sabi nga ng isa samin, sana yun daw muna yung nisakyan namin para alam na namin lahat ng places… It turned out na inde pa pala namin napuntahan lahat ng lugar dun.. Sa sobrang lake nung place.. ehehe…Then ang panget pa, gabi din kami sumakay dun, so inde ko din napichuran ng maayos yung paligid ng Sea Paradise.. Kahinaan ko kasi ang dilim, kasi inde pa ako sanay magpichur ng gumagalaw na bagay sa dilim.. Kaya inde maganda yung iba kong pics.. ehehe.. But the good thing is nakapag pahinga kami dun, lalo na’t ang isusunod namin na ride is yung roller coaster na.. ehehe..
So after nun, nag roller coaster na kami.. Medyo inde din siya nakakatakot, pero masaya kasi ang daming paikotikot… ehehe… Then ayun, as expected, may pichur din while riding the roller coaster.. Kaso inde namin alam nung una kung san naka locate, pero buti nalang maayos yung pose naming lahat, kaya bumili kaming 5 ng remembrance.. Nasakto din na nasa isang frame kaming lahat, kaya go na.. ehehehe..
After nung roller coaster, nag isang ride pa kami nun, and then we decided to ride the last one.. The Blue Fall… Ayun, medyo nagdalawang ulit kami nun, and we decided to go home.. Actually, not home yet.. Kumain muna kami sa TGIF.. and in fairness, ang tagal namin dun… At ang masasabi ko lang, panalo ang pagkain dun.. As in.. Masarap siya sa masarap.. Ewan ko kung anung drugs ang nilagay nila dun at talgang magugustuhan mo lahat.. Hehe..
After nung kainan namin, ayun, umalis na kami at nagpahinga sa kani kanilang mga bahay… ehehe..
Dinner sa TGIF
yan yung dinner ko sa TGIF.. pero before pa eating that one, grabe, nagpakabusog kami sa Appetizer.. Kasi super sarap at ang daming serving kaya appetizer palang busog na kami.. ahaha…
Well, mauulit pa tong TGIF namin.. ewan ko lang kung kelan… ehehe… maybe this christmas.. ehehe
Bitches of Japan
Ever seen a Japanese Bitch??
Well, bitches here in Japan is far different from other countries.. They have class, they have style, and you dont see them fucking in the streets any time of the day.. They are trained, so as not to bring shame to themselves.. Siguro marami na kayung napanood na DVDs or Video streams sa internet na nagpapakita ng ilang mga bitches nila dito… Ang galing noh… ehehe.. Ako kasi natutuwa lalo na pag nakakapanood ng mga actions nila, grabe, inde mo iisipin na kaya nilang gawin yung mga ganun.. Its as if, they are made just to those kind of things…
I kinda noticed that there are alot of bitches here in Japan.. Luckily, I got to take some photos of them.. And most of them are in action..
These are the different kinds of bitches that I encountered here in Japan:
The Classy Ones
Well. these kind of bitches are the ones who are properly groomed, and of course properly trained… If you can see, inde din sila papatalo sa kanilang mga attires… Pabonggahan ang laban nila.. They are those who are given extra care by their owners.. Sila din yung nabubuhay ng mas magandang buhay kesa sa ibang tao sa mundo.. Kasi binibihisan sila, pinapakain, may sariling bahay, at pinagsisilbihan.. Kahit tumae sila sa kalsada, yung mga owners ang pupuot nito at itatapon sa basurahan.. O dba… san ka pa..
Masunuring Bitch
Camera Shy
Smelling something
Trained Bitch
The Cute Ones
Ito naman yung klase ng bitches na inde na kailangang damitan, dahil masisira lang ang kanilang ka-cute-an kapag nibihisan pa sila.. Sila yung tipong mapapahinto ka nalang, at iisipin mo na sana ganung bitch nalang din ang alaga mo.. Sila din yung tipong gusto mo ng pisilin ang pisngi dahil sa sobrang kacute-an… ehehe…. In short, sila yung mga gusto ko na bitches… ehehe..
nagmamaka-awa Look... Ang kuyut... weee
Attentive Bitch
Ang Liit... ahaha
Parang malungkot siya
The Big Ones
Sila naman yung kalse ng bitch na nakakakuha ng attensyon dahil sa sobrang lake.. Minsan, inde naman sila cute, or minsan parang malnourished ang tingin sa kanila, pero ganun lang talaga ang body type nila… Bibihira lang ang may alaga ng ganyan dito, kasi mahal ata at rare ang ganyan aso.. At panget din ilagay sa car.. Mas ok na yung maliit at nabubuhat.. ahaha..
Ang Payat...
AAAAASSSSSSSSOOOOOOO
White Bitch
Hairy Bitch
The Free Ones
Sila naman yung tipong bitch na pinapabayaan lang ng owners.. Kung napapansin niyo, sila yung mga alang mga tali or sabit sa leeg.. Ibig sabihin, sila yung tipong kinakarga lang ng mga amo nila kung san man sila magpunta.. Mababait ito, at tiwalang tiwala ang owners nila na inde sila iiwan ng kanilang alaga.. Sila din madalas yung mga alaga ng tao, at yung dinadala kahit saan magpunta.. Oh yes, nakakasakay din sila sa sasakyan..
Ang Kuyut....
Spoiled Bitch
The Normal Ones
Sila naman is mga normal na bitch lang.. Yung ala lang.. Masabi na may bitch ka lang.. Hehe.. Inde sila masyadong attractive or cute.. Siguro napulot lang din sila kung saan saan.. Hehe.. Jowk.. Pero at least napapasaya pa din nila ang kanilang mga amo kahit ganyan itsura nila.. Hehe… Inde, honestly speaking, sila yung mga normal na alaga ng tao.. And when I say normal, sila yung lagi mo makikita kahit saan ka magpunta.. ehehe..
Hmm, parang pang police na aso
Lalo na to... Kahit saan meron..
Parang Saber, the Wonder Dog
Sang palabas nga bida to??
Ayan, so up until now, sila yung mga nakikita kong bitches dito sa Japan.. Hehe… Kung meron pa akong makikitang maganda at sexy at mapormang bitch, iuupdate ko kagad to.. ehehe..

Redundancy is the Best Policy
well, I learned from my filipino teacher back in college, the saying “Redundancy is the best Policy”.. Back then, we also learned alot of things from her… Like the tagalog of “/” is “chak”.. Also the URL, http://wwxyz… ehehe….
Lately, alot of commercial posters had been posted inside the malls here in Nagoya, one of them is this famous Matsuri somewhere in Inuyama, and others are just normal posters.. But what caught my attention was this poster:
Merry na Happy Pa!!!
And so I wonder how they enjoy christmas season.. I thought to myself, how joyful their christmas is.. Kasi Happy n, Merry pa.. ehehe..
Then another poster that made me look twice was this:
Look at the team name
At first, I thought, wow, she is beautiful, if she was a girl.. then days passed until I noticed the team name written in her uniform… They are called the Golden Golds.. And so I wondered, are there any other kind of golds out there?? ehehe…
Well, up until now, I keep on noticing other funny things here in Japan.. Just like this one:
Beware!
I pass that sign everyday, but I dont read it… hehe.. I just noticed it lately, when I notice other funny stuffs posted… ehehe..
Hope this made you smile… Sure made me laugh.. ehehe
Anti Terrorism
Terrorism exists even in the most peaceful country, or in the most technologically advanced country… We cannot completely eliminate terrorism…
Here in Japan, terrorism exists though you will not notice it that much.. Crime rates are low, but the suicide rates are high.. Its seldom that a person here in Japan will steal something in a store… Most stores here dont even mind theft… Because its rare to happen.. Thats why, alot of stores here dont have someone to look after their stocks even if its outside the store..
Safety in Japan is secured.. They rely on the help of America to clear the enemies away from the country.. They dont make war stuffs anymore… And they dont worry about terrorism or attacks.. One good proof of that, is in the train station, or even at mall entrances, there are no guards that will check your bags for bombs or illegal weapons.. Also in the train, no matter how big your baggage is, or how suspiciously looking a person and his baggage is, people dont mind it..
I thought about alot of reasons, and last day, I found the main reason… Its because of this:
Safety First
hehe… Masunuring tao pala ang mga hapon, kaya ala masyadong umaatake at nagdadala ng bomba dahil sa mga display na ganito.. ehehe.. Panu kaya pag sa Pinas naglagay din sila ng ganyan.. Susundin kaya yun ng mga tao?? ehehe…
Can’t Smile
You know I can’t smile without you
I can’t smile without you
I can’t laugh and I can’t sing
I’m finding it hard to do anything
Smile makes the world go round as they say.. And smile can make someone’s day… What if you cant smile?? Or you dont have that big smile that someone else have?? So you have many options… One is to practice to smile daily.. Or if you really want to make a very big smile, then use this:
Slim Mouth Piece
This is a mini-device that will make your smile better… Or kung gusto niyo lang lumaki ang bibig niyo.. lalo na sa mga becky… nyahahah…
I was surprised to see this… Nakita ko to sa isang shop na malapit sa office namin.. Nakapila lang ako, then tumitingin tingin sa paligid ko, and then I saw this.. ehehe..
So, gusto mo bang abot tenga ang iyong ngiti?? then buy one of this… It comes in many sizes depende kung ganu kalaki ang gusto mong kalabasan ng bibig mo… nyahahah…
Yey, Fire!!
Fire is the heat and light energy released during a chemical reaction (in particular, a combustion reaction). Depending on the substances alight, and any impurities outside, the color of the flame and the fire’s intensity might vary. Fire in its most common form can result in conflagration, and has the potential to cause physical damage through burning.
-Wikipedia
Im really glad that fire was discovered in the past.. Imagine life without fire.. Well, worse is to experience life without fire… Well, I did…
Last week, we were not able to cook anything because of our stove.. Though our stove is electric, thus not use fire, lack of capability to cook due to the stove made my week a very magastos week.. Of course, I eat three times a day, and honestly speaking, foods here are not that cheap… The most expensive is the lunch.. Usually, if I wanted to eat rice, then there is a shop at the front of our office.. Its not that expensive, but compared to cooking, it costs more.. Theres a variety of food you can choose there..
After entering, you will see a Vending Machine where the foods are drawn and the names are written.. It costs around 500 yen to 1000++ yen.. And set meals are from 700 yen.. Usually, I order the katsudon with udon (noodles) which cost round 800 yen..
Another hot spot for lunch is Mc Donalds.. Honestly speaking, its one of the famous American fast food chain here… But its very different from the Philippines.. They just sell burgers, fries, and nuggets in their menu… Then theres the ice creams, flurry, etc… So whats the difference??? The chicken with rice or nuggets with rice, and spaghetti with chicken… Hmm, those were my main orders in those kind of fast food chains…
Last wednesday night, I went to the supermarket to buy some bread for my breakfast, bananas, and while walking around I saw this Sushi.. In Japan, when night comes, all the perishable foods are discounted every hour.. So originally, the sushi set costs 600 yen.. then after the discount, it became 420 yen.. If I wait even more, it may become 250 yen or lesser.. But the chances of me buying it are low because that set was the last sushi set and I dont have enough time to idle myself and wait for it to have more discount.. Someone may take it at that price.. So I just took it… Here is a picture of it:
Sushi Set
Hope you dont notice that theres one sushi missing… ehehe.. Then just half of it made my stomach full.. It was very delicious.. Makes me want to buy one right now.. ehehe.. But wait, there will be more discount later.. >:)
Luckily, our hell-week came to an end, because last thursday I was able to fix the stove.. Theres a button that was needed to be pressed to reset the counter.. And now, we can cook again… So the first thing that came to my mind was to cook Carbonara , with the recipe that my friend gave me.. Unluckily, I didnt have the needed ingredients, and what I had was for a simple pasta.. So I was not able to cook it.. I really wanted to cook it because my friend showed this to me:
Carbonara by Reynan
It looks very delicious.. After my friend showed this to me, i asked him if it was really him who did this.. ehehe.. And he said that I was only jealous thats why I asked him that.. ehehe.. Well, as for me, I was not jealous,, but his picture looks fake… peace..
Then I was asking him how to cook it, but he does not reply… Well, ill try to cook my own Carbonara someday.. So because I didnt have the ingredients for it, I only made my simple but very delicious Pasta.. That was my dinner last friday night, also my lunch the next day..
So Im happy right now because I will not spend more on my foods.. Goodluck on my cooking..
Autumn Signs
Well, its getting colder and colder here in Japan right now… And Ive noticed the difference in temperature because last month, it was very hot, as in 26 degrees hot.. We suffered that temperature for almost 2 months, turning on our aircon for the whole night until we wake up the next morning… Of course we suffered the consequence of that, and our electric bill was doubled as what we have this month… Knowing the fact that Im in Nagoya, the literal center of Japan, they say that temperature here are the peeks or extremes.. Meaning if its cold, its really cold, if its hot, its really hot…
The transition we did was from 12 hours aircon, to 9 hours, then to 6 hours, and then we just opened our window for the air to come in… And now, we dont let any air to come in from the window.. ehehe.. So thats one sign that Summer is now transcending to Autumn..
Another sign is that there is a holiday here called the Autumn Equinox Day , though that day was still hot… Thats the official day that it already became Autumn here in Japan…
And lately, one of the noticeable things here in Japan is this:
Is this a Maple Leaf?
I am amazed to see this leaf.. Well, its not normal.. And if you notice in some of the movies or dramas that you watch, where the season is Autumn, you will see this leaf.. ehehe.. I dont know why its famous when its Autumn.. ehehe…
There, so those are the signs that its really Autumn here… BTW, if you want to know, the temperature here now is 10 degrees… ehehe… Very very cold… I wear jacket going to and from the office..
Comparing Autumn and Spring, I dont know whats colder… Well, before Winter is Autumn, and after winter is Spring… So I dont know how I can compare… But when we came here in Japan, it was Spring.. At first, since we were not yet used to the temperature, it was very cold for us… But after some time, we became used to it, so we didnt wore jacket anymore..
So I think I can say that Autumn is much colder than Spring… ehehe.. Though Spring time here is very famous, because of the Sakura or also famous for the english term, Cherry Blossoms..
Sakura (Cherry Blossoms)
Sorry for the Sakura Pic… It was taken by my old phone.. If Im still here next year, then Ill give you better pics of it.. ehehe..
Kannon
Lying here with you
Listening to the rain
Smiling just to see the smile upon your face
These are the moments I thank God that I’m alive
These are the moments I’ll remember all my life
I found all I’ve waited for
And I could not ask for more
No, this is not the piano piece by Pachelbel.. This is a famous statue in Ofuna Station, the KANNON BOSATSU (Skt. Avalokitesvara), Goddess of Mercy that originated from India… Well, it was believed that there are 33 manifestations of Kannon in different forms.. There are also 33 Kannon statues in Kamakura, but this was the only one that we visited.. There was a story that you must visit the temples in order and that will be an act of great merit… Well, we didnt have enough time and we didnt know the locations of the other statues, plus this was the nearest in our house, thats why this is the one we visited… This is a picture of Kannon from the Ofuna Station:
View from the Train Station
The Kannon Head is a sign for the passengers of the train that will tell them that they are nearing the end of their long journey.. Those who came from Osaka or Nagoya that is going to Tokyo via train, will know that they are near the Tokyo station, which is about 45 minutes from Ofuna Station..
So the path going there is not hard.. Actually, I never imagined that it was very near the station because I never go to the other back side of the station.. So exiting the station from the back side, we crossed this bridge and walked for another 10 minutes to reach the pathway to the temple:
Bridge going to the Path of the Temple
This is the Entrance to the Path going to the Temple
So here comes the hard part.. Going up!!! The path way is a small road going up with bamboos on the left side and a hill on the right.. It took us about 8 minutes to reach the top which was the entrance to the temple.. The entrance costs only 300 yen..
The Temple Gate
So after entering the first thing you will notice is this scenery, under a temple..
Folded Crane Shrine
The place has this many 100 folded crane origami which was believed to make your wish come true if you ever folded 1000 cranes.. Also, there was incenses and some stones with writings that i didnt understood.. ehehe…
Going up will take you to one of the temple which has a bell, where you will pray and say your wish and ring the bell.. There are steps to do this, and I didnt know that so I didnt tried to make a wish..
Going further up will take you to the highest point of the whole place, were the head of Kannon is located..
Head of Kannon
Side View
At the back of the head, there is an entrance to its head.. Then inside the head, you will see a mini-Kannon statue and some things that I cant explain.. Also, inside the head, you can put your 1000 folded crane origami..
Mini Kannon Statue
The place is not that small.. There were alot of open spaces where you can rest.. Also, there is a great view of Kamakura-Ofuna from the top.. The air was cold, and it was very relaxing…
At the end of the day, before leaving the temple, we saw some Priests and we grabbed the chance to have a picture with them.. Here are the priests of the temple:
Temple Priest
So the experience was great… I know for the fact that there are alot of temples in Kamakura, and this is just one of them.. Hopefully, I can visit the other temples as well.. Specially if you are with your friends like mine:
