For the first time in my life, i celebrated a 'real' Raya... not even in Msia, but here in Miyazaki.

It wasn't 'real' back in KL because all I did was just going to the bazaar to get the food.

* Jakun (my definition) = a person who sees something for the first time and reacts abnormally towards it.

Driving license in JPN

It costs more than 200,000yen for a 19 year old lad to apply for a driver's license in Japan. That's a heartbroken; sorrowful RM 6000+...

and the price vary according to age...

 

Japanese driving instructors are like this :

A friend of mine told me, if you're a girl, they won't let you choose whether you wanna drive an auto or manual... they'll automatically let you drive an automatic car. Unless the girl tells them in advance, she gets to drive a manual car (who knows, probably with extra cost..lol).

Which means, we guys get to choose what type of car we want during the test.

today's news - For the first time in 10years, starting fare for Tokyo's taxis have gone up; to 710yen (RM21+) from the previous 660yen (RM20).

 

In Bangsar, sit on a chair (not mamak) and there goes RM20... here in Tokyo, chair on 4 wheels, RM20 ...
I'd rather pay RM2 to sit on a chair with many many wheels... (LRT)
better still... my chair on 2 wheels (bicycle) ... FREE!!
