Japan Trip Part IV

At 9AM we went to Imperial Palace. Unfortunately we couldn't see it because was under maintenance. So we just walked near the location for sightseeing and buy more souvenirs to bring home.

Talking about the outfit, I was wearing Forever 21 floral dress, H&M shawl, New Look boots,  the coat and hat purchased from Harajuku.

The next destination is Waseda University and then National Museum of Emerging Science and Innovation (Miraikan). We learned a lot in both places and I also successfully got pranked by one of the Sahabat Marina, Stella, when I tried to have some little chit-chat with the robot woman at Miraikan. I thought the robot woman was way too sophisticated that she knew my name, age, where I am from and my further bio without meeting me before. Was she scanning me or something? Hey, I don't like being mindread by anyone, nor  have I an ID chip implanted in my flesh lol. Then my response was getting awkward and I ran away from the robot woman and saw Stella came out from a nearby box. The truth is she was filling the robot woman's voice in that box when it was talking to me. At first it felt horror then ridiculous all of a sudden. 

I didn't took many photos at both Waseda University and Miraikan because I think I was too excited exploring what the university has and also the science that Miraikan offers.

The mysterious robot woman lol!   source: google.com

Every moment of everyday was filled with joy and new discoveries. Even just walking down the street is a fascinating experience. The four days I spent in Japan is certainly memorable, and leaves me wanting more, of course! Sayonara Japan, arigatou gozaimasu Sahabat Marina!

Japan Trip Part III

At 9:30AM we had a short origami course led by Mr. Kobayashi, the creative and friendly owner of Origami Kaikan. Well, I never good at this art of folding papers. Even when I was at kindergarten-as an ignorant kid-I never tried to listen to my teacher's instruction in every origami class and frequently asked my friends to get my origami work done. But Mr. Kobayashi taught us really well with bigger origami papers as the examples for us to follow. Sounds so lame that after seventeen years I could finally make some good ones. Ha!
Besides continuing the family business, he also contributes by inventing numerous new origami and kirigami creations. I haven't seen much variety of origami/kirigami like what I saw at this place. So lovely! 

Next, around 11:30AM we arrived at Tokyo DisneySea.  
Time to have fun and play with water a little bit! Wohoo!

The you-know-what icon, Tokyo Tower, graciously stands still, illuminated by lights at night.
