The whole night on the plane, I could not get to sleep because of a snoring man sleeping behind me. All the people were sleeping soundly. I look through the window and saw the beautiful night sky. Probably that's the closest distance we can get to stars. The whole sky was lit with glittering stars and it was amazing. I have never seen such sky in Singapore. =) After a while, I slowly fell into deep sleep due to tiredness. When I woke up, it's breakfast time. Japanese style breakfast with rice and miso soup. I asked for the Western style instead cuz I like to eat bread. Haha The air stewardess seemed to assume that I am Japanese so she kept asking me questions in Japanese and i replied in Japanese. In the end, I was not given the immigration card and the declaration card was in Japanese. I had to tell her that I am not Japanese and asked her for the immigration card. =p I felt a sense of relief when we reached Fukuoka International Airport. Finally, I stepped on the land of the rising sun, Japan.
I had a long chat with the immigration officer because there wasn't many people queuing up. At first, he only asked where I am from and what I am here for. Then, he was having difficulty asking in English and started to ask whether I understand Japanese. Yes, the moment I nodded my head, he was so glad and asked even more questions! -_-" Had to write down Suyu's contacts and address because he discovered that I have a friend in Japan. He asked about Suyu's occupation and my whole travel plan. Where did I learn Japanese and how long. Even asked if my boyfriend is Japanese? So after finding out that Suyu is a Singaporean working in Miyazaki and I am a Singaporean coming for a long holiday and my boyfriend is Indonesian, he gave a confused look. ''複雑ですね。。。" (It's complicated...), I said then he laughed. That's the first Japanese I spoke to in Japan.
Then I got stuck at the luggage check area. This officer was nice but niao! He wanted me to open my luggage and check everything... When he saw the parcel that suyu's mum wanted me to bring over, he asked me if i do drugs? -_-" Anyway, after explaining to him the contents, he insisted to open it. The parcel was sealed nicely with scotch tape lor... He doesn't know what is chicken essence? So I got to explain to him. Then, when he saw "Yomeishu", he gave me a diaoz look... "Why you bring this from Singapore to Miyazaki? You can buy this in Japan!" I told him that my friend could not get this in Miyazaki... That's why! After some 15 minutes, he decided to let me go and nicely wrapped back the parcel for me. *lucky*
