Just had my first dose of tour guiding today. It's sooo tiring. My ankles and knee hurt like mad when walking. It was very fun though. I won't mind if my part time job is somewhat like this. At least I get to have fun though it is super tiring. Let's just hope I get girls that do not walk soooo fast next time. The 5 guys are from Aichi Perfecture. Hmmm, I only heard of that place from Slam Dunk but never gone there of course. Thank god Hiroki-kun (my savior) can understand my horrible English+Japanese mix and able to translate to the others! Heng! We walked many many places in 6 hours. From One Fullerton to Arab Street to Little India to Chinatown to Orchard Road. ARGH! Someone save me. Not to mention that my bag is crazily heavy. I keep seeing a lot of Jap students today everywhere. Why is that so? Is today a special day for Jap students to go outings? It's sooo lucky! Why aren't there any exchange programs in my secondary school to go to Japan?! None at all. I hate AI to the max at times.
Actually, today is considered a cool humid day in Singapore but Syunichi-kun keeps repeating ATSU every 15 seconds. Because of that, I begun to feel ATSU as well and kept fanning. Those guys are awesome, I cannot tahan how can they tahan Singapore's weather with that seemingly thick sweater even with the sleeves folded up to the elbow. It's damn hot lahx. Plus, Toshiyuki-kun wore 2 long sleeves shirts. OMG! No wonder he was sweating like hell! Toshiyuki-kun is a pro shopper. The way he shops scares me! Enter a shop and his wallet will be much lighter I guess. Hahahaha. The first shop we entered, he spent like $40 already because everything was like 3 for $10. A nice family boy he seems to be, buying loads of presents for his mother and grandmother. 3 pouches. 3 wallets. 30 keychains. Apron. Hankerchief. Stationary. And I can't remember what else. His bag was bursting until he couldn't put everything in and had to carry some in a plastic bag. LOLX.
I think I'm really lousy at tour-guiding. But well, it's my first, I didn't know what to do, where to go and how to go. Kinda of pathetic. I felt a bit bad talking very little to Masakazu-kun and Shinya-kun because they are always at the back!!! Too far. Haiz, only Hiroki-kun is nice enough and able to chat with me. Dotx. Oh yeah, please, if I ever get to go Chinatown with a group, do not ask me to eat McDonalds! There is so much good food at Chinatown and I had to eat McDonalds. !!!
