YRP

Yokosuka Research Park. It is known to be the popular place for IT people in Japan. That was our first time there and we are not familiar with the place or how to get there. We agreed with our japanese counterparts that they are going to meet us at the YRP-nobi station.

We were a little late, coz i woke up already 845am and were suppose to meet at 845am..we ended up taking the 925 or 935 train instead of the 915 coz we arrived late at the station...at the YRP-nobi station, we met sagawa-san and hasegawa-san..miss noemi is still not there. they called her up, and since she also woke up late, we headed directly to the bus stop and waited for the bus to YRP station..twas a saturday so most of them are in casual, while we are in our formal coz it will be our first day there.

the bus arrived, and since it was a weekend, its not that full...we are able to grab some seat...its just a 10minute ride, and on the 2nd stop, is the NTT Docomo building...since we still do not have our IDs, we passed by the basement(the security is in there and since its a saturday, the main reception is closed). we had a temporary ID, issuance will be on monday so we'll have the temporary one...

the security is tight. u nid to swipe in entering the main building, u nid to swipe in entering a room and different departments...the temporary id wont allow us to enter the room or the departments..so we had to be with them always in order not to be locked out ;)

the whole morning, we were toured around the building..where the pantry, smoking areas, toilets, massage room(yes they have that), exits, canteens and store....after that they introduced us to all the equipments inside the lab...we had lunch at 1pm(yes u heard me ryt, that's 1pm), since the canteen is closed, we went to this cafeteria at YRP...

OMG, i do not know what these foods are...taking their suggestion, we had katsu-curry(looks better than other foods), looks yummy too...but, twas spicy..i finished it though..poor me, m really am hungry...
back to the lab, we set up the equipments, so we can start testing...from 130pm(that was right after the lunch break), we worked directly until evening, no 3pm and 5pm breaks or dinner breaks...at last, at around 730pm, they decided to go home...so we went out, wait for the bus, and the train, and at yokosuka-chou, they went out with us and told us were having dinner :) again :)

hmmm...kinda like this :)
