Candy In Tokyo

Candy, my Jc classmate ( in my "the towers" clique) came over for work in Tokyo for a few days over the week and I managed to meet up with her!

It was really really really great to see her. Think both of us feel glad and excitment to meet as we have not met for nearly 2 years. She wasn't in Singapore as well, flying in between Taipei and was in Hongkong for the past 8 months for her career.

Anyway, I managed to meet up with not just her, her boyfriend and a big clique of friends.. shall not go into details for that part of the meeting.

I met her 3 days in a row actually. And it was really quality time of catching up because we were not busy rushing around to sightsee or to shop. It was just slow strolls along the streets, occasionally visits to pharmacies for cosmetics, (thanks Candy for the intro of the Mascara! It is cheap and good!), food, coffee breaks, just basically talk about our lives till now, our lives from now on...

Then, we did a crazy thing by lining up for an hour in the harsh weather for Krisy Kreme's donuts! Apparently, it is pretty popular in Hongkong and even more so in Japan judging by the long queue perpetually found outside the shop. The hour wait seems like a short one though as we chat more and feel the excitment burning as we finally set our feet into the shop. It felt almost like a dream too, a dream of us being grown-ups as we walk back to Candy's hotel on the streets of Tokyo, both of us in trench coats... I guess we never imagine how we will be when we will grow up. I told Candy too, I never had imagine both us of will be walking together in the streets of Tokyo munching on a donut together.

But it was all fun! I can't wait to go HK sometime soon!
