Sakuragicho Escapade.

Sakuragicho Escapade.








Hola!! Just want to share with you what happened when we went to Sakuragicho. It was quite a short trip but then again, I had fun. Excuse my sun block studded face. I didn't know we're using flash photography here. Hahahaha










I went with my friend and she went with two of her friends and yeah at the end of the day, I gained two new friends. It's quite rude but to be honest, I don't quite remember their names. New friends nonetheless. 










I like how Europey this place is. Like to the point where it's confusing. It only looks Europey in this place. 










Titanic. I only called this place titanic because I don't really know what this ship is called. 










Selfie. Loves it! 










It's a pretty good spot for jogging as well because it's kinda huge. Wish I live nearby because girl! We all need I could use some of that. 












Sakuragicho at night is just breathtaking. Like, I can't even. It's like so wonderful and magical and even though there's not much to see, I can't imagine myself getting tired of it. 












The sunset even made this trip more wonderful. OMG can I just say one more thing? I think this is like the first time that I was able to take picture of the moon. In the past, even though how much I tried, it just won't happen. It just won't look moony as I would like it to be. So I'm really thankful that finally, I was able to take a picture of it. 












Who can say no to this? Seriously. Like, this is just so wonderful ain't it?











And this! I've literally just spent maybe like 4 hours in that place but it was worth the while. Until then,

By the Unknown River

By the Unknown River

I sat down and wept.












I always knew our house in Sagamihara is near a river and I remember going there probably thrice my lifetime. Since I wasn't really doing anything yet, I tried to figure out how to get to the river and man it was a struggle! Like, it was real! There's nothing more frustrating than knowing you're in the right track but still can't find the right direction. The reason I know I'm doing it right is because I can actually hear the water flow and it was even more frustrating because it was darn loud and I was like, can I just go in the pipe and let the water take me there? I was actually even trying to LINE with my mom asking her for directions. Like, as if. Oh well that happened. She was like, TRY TO REMEMBER! Okay, like, I have no idea where I'm going but I'm going anyways. Hahaha ALWAYS! 
















At the end of the day, I was able to find the place and was able to take a stroll so yay for me, right? From afar, there's also a motorcycle park which I don't really have anything to do with but it's cool. 















It was kind of hot when I went so I didn't stay that long and as much as I wanted to wait for the sunset, I guess I went a little early for the occasion so no sunset for me. Boo!!! I guess it would look gorgeous though. I probably would have gave it a go if I were biking but since I went walking, I concluded it'd be dangerous for me to like walk my way home and you know, probably DIE? Ha! So paranoid. Anyways that's all. No selfies. Sad. 




Celebrating Nature at Sagamihara Park

Celebrating Nature at Sagamihara Park


Okay so this is what happened. I think it was my second day or like my third day in Japan when I decided to visit my favorite place in my city. The PARK. If you're from my previous blog, you may have noticed that I have talked about this place quite a lot. Anyways.









I only stayed at our house for quite a few days so even though it rained, I still went! Sacrifices! It's just that from where I stayed that time, I really have no idea how to go to the park and stuff. Also, can  I just remind you that at this point in time, dad already scrapped my old bike and so I walked. I swear I sensed people looking at me with my umbrella on. Oh well.








GOTTA DO THAT SELFIE








Should have seated and got my picture taken. Oh well living the forever alone life for quite a while I guess. DIY until you can make it. 

















Obsessed with the flowers! Going to this place calms my spirit. I guess you have to be in a good mood when you go here because if you're feeling down, I can see this place to actually make you feel more down for a reason because it's like very quiet and peaceful and stuff but it's actually very beautiful so I think that beautiful scenery may counteract everything I have just said. I don't know where my point is going. More flower spam!












You have to see this in person y'all. I kind of felt like a rich girl walking on her garden for a second LOL, Aladdin reference. Now where's thy tiger?







who can say no to this?












Usually there would be ducks swimming here but then they were chilling somewhere else. There are other mini ponds and I saw some there. Even ducks don't want to be mainstream. 












Sometimes you don't really have to spend that much to be entertained and sometimes you don't have to pay for that expensive coffee to have that peace of mind. We just have to have more of this and this world would be a better place. 










The park is huge and there are some other places to visit such as the mini zoo and that field where dogs can play and train. 










There's a very limited animals in there but one can sure enjoy the sight of them. They do have guinea pigs, rabbits, goats, sheep, birds, cows, horses, wallabies, monkeys, squirrels, and maybe one or two that I can't recall. 







ENTRANCE OF THE ZOO


I miss this place and if I can make my way there on my bike, I surely will! And spam more pictures! That's all about this post. Goodbye.

Cherry Blossoms!

Cherry Blossoms!


I thought I'd share with you pictures from my Sakura sight seeing very near our house. Before leaving the Philippines, I kind of made sure I'd be in Japan at around this time so I wouldn't waste my hard-earned plane ticket's value when I arrive and holy cow. Holy cow indeed! Voila! It sucked though that nobody's there to take me pictures so I really had to pull a D.I.Y. right there and then.



















Tell you I really really like this place. I used to pick blackberries here before. I also used to walk with my grandmother here and we would just like be awesome together. I would also ride my bike here and just imagine crazy things. 












loves it














Anyways, I think I was able to capture decent amount of good (assuming!) pictures to share so here they are! 










cherry cherry boom boom




can't not take a selfie



I actually have quite a lot of selfies but then I have a lot of face monsters so let's just forget about it now. LOL. Also, I realized that they all look the same anyways. And it does not help that I don't have anyone to take good pictures with me. Life. 














That's about it guys. I hope you all kept up with my pictures from memory lane! I'll make sure to keep this blog updated so look forward to this coming Spring for you will see this kind of post again!
