for everyone

Kujyu Ski Resort with our boss Sugimoto-san, Geno, Ate Jeddy, and Kuya Marben. First time to try skiing.

Please don't mind the horrible looking orange pants. I got them as part of the package tour so I didn't have any choice. Anyway, you wouldn't be able to worry about how you look like when you've stumbled so many times right.

It's definitely NOT as easy as it looks. And it's definitely NOT similar to ice skating! And with the rain pouring the whole time, it was many more times harder I think. Ahahaha.

Sugimoto-san was the one who taught us how to move, turn and stop. I only got to learn the stopping part though during my last run. Most of the time I had to let myself fall, butt first, so I won't hit anybody. That gave me the chance to experience sledding down the mountain too, only without the sled. Ahaha.

I even got to try the lift and start from the top most part of the slope after lunch. By then I was doing better than I did in the morning. Maybe since we already had lunch and I had a lot of calories to burn. I got to slide down the slope, stop, and turn too! Now I only have to learn how to get up after I've fallen. I had to remove my blades every time so I could get up. Can't.Push.Myself.Up.

Number of times I fell? Lost count. But the experience, priceless.

Again again agaaaaaaaaaain!

After the ski trip, we went to the Onsen (Japanese Hot Springs). First time to be *ahem* "in my birthday suit" in front of other people. Huwaaaaah!

I've realized that I got to do everything I wanted during my stay here. Got to go to a lot of places too. The only thing left now is to see the Sakura flowers bloom during spring and experience Hanami. After that, I can say my Japan experience is complete.

Well, this was just supposed be a short post. I'm going to bed now. Have to go work tomorrow. I hope my muscles won't be complaining in the morning. Ahahah.

Oyasumi!
