Wonderlust ♥

all i knew , this morning when i woke ,
is i know something now , know something now i didn't before  


over the course of last month , i was overwhelmed by the need to pen my thoughts more than once . hoping to sort out the mess , to focus . but every other time it feels like i'm grasping for words not within my reach , so they became drafts sitting in my blogspace .

sometimes i revisit an entry and draw strength or feelings from them , i love words and feel that it's important to write clearly and with feeling . it's the same reason why i love songs ; they represent the start and end of many chapters of sorts for me , and i can always revisit and recreate those chapters whenever i feel the need for nostalgia .

so i spent some time combing through my old entries (since 2013) ; in case you were wondering , this instance of combing means skimming through and occasionally really reading a particular entry .

looking back , I've never regretted blogging about feelings , placing photos , sharing about happy things and my hair journey . i'm sure it's a cue for me to keep it up . and when an old entry comes across as juvenile in terms of content , i can only cringe but be glad that i've grown up mentally and moved past any roadblocks .

it's time to close the old chapters and keep looking forward . all of us have to grow up at some point .

it's has been a tradition to share about overseas trips , so here's me talking about my Fukuoka trip just last month ! here is my travel companion and best buddy ~

the first day we embarked on our trip , we touched down at Hong Kong airport for a transit in the wee hours of the morning . it was our second time transiting at Hong Kong (i've never been to Hong Kong itself outside it's airport) .

we had an interesting time shopping about the airport and having breakfast there before flying off .

if you spent time reading the earlier commentary , we therefore didn't do much on day 1 in Japan cuz we reached in the afternoon , but we checked out the hakata lights and took some nice pictures :)

the second day had us checking out Dazaifu and eating Ichiran:



that's the super aesthetic starbucks and me yet discovering the gem that is iced chai tea latte . after many nice photos and wishes later , we went to tenjin for shopping and got our 1st loot of the trip ! pokemon , anime merchandise , gundams and what not .


as for our third day , we went to Marine World @ Uminonakamichi . unfortunately (or fortunately) , we were too fascinated by marine life that we missed the seaside park by its opening hours .

undeterred , we went to see the lights at Canal City and the pokemon centre after our marine escapade . yup , 2nd loot of the trip for us .
 thanks to my white puff for the stitch cable bite <3 br="">
Day 4: there was an AAA concert event just beside our hotel ! we went to check out the merch in the morning  before going to book our shuttle bus to the airport for the next day .

we went to the mall nearby to get starbucks and that was when this happened:
chai fabulous chai .

we had an udon spread for lunch before heading to the Fukuoka Castle and Fukuoka Tower after Fukuoka Castle:
after we finished Fukuoka Tower , we went back for an onsen experience at our hotel , which was awesomeee with stone hot coals , water , oh well you get the gist .

do consider going for the onsen if you are staying in Hilton Fukuoka Sea Hawk !

 Day 5 got us feeling sad about leaving our humble crib behind . this is the view from our hotel window:
we also woke up for the breakfast spread at the hotel for the very first time .

on the subject of hotcakes , these from 7-11 are pretty good:

day 6 sees us back in Singapore .

till next time !
