In Japan, train disruptions caused by passengers falling into the rail tracks are frequent. It can get into you especially when you are rushing for time.

I had a close shave too, the other day when I was heading for the airport on a flight back to Singapore. Just as I was settling comfortably into one of the seats, an announcement came. Imagine, the train will stop due to passenger falling into the track （*○*）!!

My brain went empty! I had a plane to catch!　(@.@ ;;)
Not only me, in fact, the whole station was in chaos, flooded with people rushing to the staffs asking for other transport means and when the train is scheduled to start moving. Poor staffs! They need to handle all these.

Fortunately, I made it for my flight. But every time when such accidents happened, it had me wondering why railway companies in Japan though having such remarkable history and technologies, did not make efforts to take measures on repeated human accidents. Few stations have auto doors setup.

These pictures were taken from Singapore’s railway platform. At least they prevent such accidents from happening.

I finally got to meet up with my nephew for the first time, 18 months later after he was born. The picture probably won’t tell, but his size is very small for his age. Cheeky and naughty he is not only, but also irresistibly *CUTE*.

Unfortunately, he don’t take to people easily and I remained an “enemy” from Day 1 since we met. “Why?” remains a mystery… (．_．;)

Today is Lunar new year eve (Chinese Singaporean celebrate lunar new year). In this day, everyone will try to gather for the reunion dinner.　For my family, we don’t get to gather frequent together because some of us are staying overseas. Its being few years since we last made a full gatherings and I actually enjoyed!

To enhance the Chinese New Year mood, these photos were taken at Ameyoko near to the period of New year. Ameyoko is best known for its bargain of fresh seafood and dried food. The place is not only popular among tourists but also locals. Doesn’t these seafood look delicious?

“Commoner’s sushi” from hometown. I was surprised that the varieties had increased over the years. In fact, more than that of sushi originator country, Japan. And price is cheap (ranging from 50 cents to about a dollar plus). Taste of the sushi is adjusted to suit the taste bud of locals. “Commoner’s sushi” seems enjoy popularity in Singapore.

However, in my personal opinion, Japan’s sushi remains the most delicious.
