This Park again and again

Wanderlust February 15, 2016 0

After a long time, I get to visit this park again. I was actually so happy because I get to share the beauty of the park.

I don't get why he was so amused by this cow. Why? Haha

The cow really did not care. Such a badass. Like, she would look at us once and then look away and eat grass. Repeat. She did not even try. Haha

Also entered their bird house and it was nice. I wish they build a bigger cage though. It's a little bit crowded for all of them there.

Colorful bird

Then we enter the feeding cage whatever and it was awesome.

It was our first time seeing these babies. Not sure what they are exactly but most likely chickens hahaha.

Then we also get to feed most of them with carrots and we were saying that they're really doing it right because it's a nice learning and fun experience for kids (and the like) and all the animals there get to eat.

Also, even though it's Winter, they still have this flower mosaic thing going on so yeah it was still kind of pretty. Also they did have an event that time where they sell stuff but all we did there was eat mochi. It was good.

My favorite part of the park for sure.

The earliest bloom of Sakura that I've seen. Fantastic.

It was a good day. Ciao!

Celebrating Nature at Sagamihara Park

Wanderlust September 12, 2014 0

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.

The Rant Club

Work in Japan June 23, 2014 3

You don't have an idea how I want to change my blog's name to something relevant to being pissed all the time. But nah I'm not turning this blog to a rant blog. Just tempted. Anyways another entry for y'all.

So as I was in a hurry to go home because the bus would always be full at 6 am, right? Then it happened. The driver said "last two person" and we were like 10 remaining. Great! And I was like joking around and blocking the person in front of me but she was able to go in of course. I was not even second so I know I wouldn't be able to go in. Anyways. What pissed me off is the TAXI INCIDENT.

The driver told us to go up and talk to the people at the office so that they could give us the tickets for taxi and then two of us did. One Nepali and I. I don't know why the rest didn't go though. So yeah that happened. When we went up, they were questioning why the rest didn't go up and demanded we call them and that they wouldn't call the taxi if the rest wouldn't go up. Sounds about right. I think. The person who went up with me tried to called a friend who's downstairs but that person's not picking up so I volunteered to go down instead and call them up. Also, she really wanted to go the bathroom and so I let her. But then I didn't know that the office person went down with me with the tickets. WTF!! He said he only got two tickets with him and that he'll request for another one. I then called the person I went up with and asked her to go down then informed that someone that the person I went up with tried to call her like five times. Anyways. She (tried to contact) got hold of a ticket and the other ticket went to someone else. She then grouped me to be in a taxi with her. So it was me, a Japanese, her, and the person I went up with. Settled. We waited for the taxi and then the first came after 20-ish minutes and then we decided to go first but guess what? People who are not even part of the settled group went rushing in. The person who went up with me and the person holding the ticket were able to go in though. I was like, what just happened? The person holding the ticket was apologizing to me and since it's not really her fault, it's really okay so I said okay. Ang lakas maka The Fault in our Stars diba? LOL.

Then the second taxi came and since I don't really know whether they already settled their group or not, I let them go. The Japanese went up to get the ticket they promised but I think the office demanded that we all go up again and it would have been better if the taxi division would be like 4-3-3 so yeah it ended up being two full taxis and two remaining with no remaining taxi ticket. We just then decided to wait for the 7a.m. bus. Sucks!

What I want to rant about is the fact that even though I was the one who went up, I wasn't able to get a ticket so how so evil of these people to go ahead and ride earlier than I did, right? It's just so frustrating how thick skinned can people get sometimes. I think a normal person would feel shy at least but no. The nerves! I hate dealing with people like that. Like, seriously. GTFO. Ano ako tagakuha niyo ng ticket? The end of rant.

On a lighter note, I took some photos at the park nearby. It's completely washed out but the background is actually my work place.

Took random photos because I got nothing better to do anyways.

I particularly liked the sky. I don't know why. I mean, as always.

I enjoyed sitting and relaxing though. I think there's still a reason for me missing the bus and taxis. To relax a little bit.

Completely from the other day when the sky looks so scary as if it just wants to drop us all dead. You probably can't see. Anyways, see yah!

Asamizo Park, Japan. A Look Back.

Wanderlust August 30, 2012 1

So I don't know if I already told you about this but this is like my go-to-place when I was young-er. LOL. So yeah we usually go here once or twice a week and stuff so yeah this place is really memorable for me so I'm glad I found some pictures and that I get to share some of the moments to y'all.

I seriously love the flowers in this place. Or generally the flowers in Japan. I don't know. It's just that I don't get to see as much here. I kind of like flowers. Because some flowers are kind of fragile so seeing them bloom makes me think that there's someone taking care of it and that someone is doing a great job. Getting sentimental all of a sudden, huh? LOL.

Tulips! :) Oh! Can you see the playground? My sisters and I used to play there and stuff! LOL. I wish I was a kid again. Si kids! Stop trying to grow up or something. Enjoy your childhood while it lasts.

There's even a mini zoo inside the park and stuff and yeah and it's mostly an interactive zoo where you can feed the guinea pigs, rabbits, sheep, goats, and other animals. You can also just pet them and all that. There's even a place where you can ride a pony and stuff so yeah. Quite fun.

How cute! :D

I don't know what the guy outside is up to so yeah. LOL. On the other part of the park, there's actually a jungle. Well, people call it jungle but it's actually a woody place (woody place?) and there are some stuff in there which you have to complete and stuff. Something like, zip lining, wall climbing, rock climbing, and all other fun stuff. It's kind of hard to explain but yeah. Whatever. Near the jungle is actually a tower and yeah not actually very high but high enough to have a good view of the city.

Sagamihara Koen is really a big park because on the even other side of the park, there's a flower garden/museum that you can enjoy. Yeah there's just a lot to enjoy in this place. There's also a fountain in which kids usually shower naked and stuff. Like, even when it's too cold, they would still run around there.

So yeah! Oh there's also a pool and a spa/onsen there :) You just have to find it though because if I tell, you might still get lost anyways. I heard that they're renovating the building where the pool is at though. Mmm... So yeah! That's all. :)

Shiki is happy.

Shiki April 06, 2012 0

Went out with the fam to take the dogs and the kids to the park (Quezon City Circle). We only took Mocha and Shiki though. Shiki behaved very well in the car, saved me from trouble. Some of our dogs would puke like drunk dogs. Seriously. Also shout out to my cousin, Angelica who also pukes. :D And also! My sisters and I played badminton somewhere there. NOT BRAGGING BUT I WON HANDICAPPED. :D

Side profile model.

The spill isn't pee, don't worry. We actually brought with us a cup where the dogs can drink water but apparently, Shiki was more amused by the cup so he wanted to play with us. BAD DOG! So then I had to actually hold the cup for him so that he would be able to drink properly. And picture below happened.
