(enough of laag, time for work)
January 16, 2006

Lloyd met with us at Mukaigawara station by 730am...the train is so packed from the hotel to kawasaki even that early and was even packed from kawasaki to tamachi...Lloyd is giving us directions along the way as we had our almost 20minutes walk from the station to the office...

When we arrived at the office, there was not much people yet coz we really intended to be early for the first day...our managers and japanese counterparts are not around yet...Lloyd oriented us on the procedures inside the office..we were toured around the area for the pantry, the cr, the vending machines and the canteen and convenient store together with takezaki-san. Takezaki-san is another member of ANOS, i presume :) and she is the one helping us with the intstallation and pc set ups...

During morning, what we did is to set up our laptops...by 12 noon, we went out for lunch outside...we met Edna-san who is a cute lady who wants to learn english and introduced herself to us in English shyly :D kawaii! :D the store is some sort of fastfood that sells bento...we are not familiar with the name of the foods and how it is in there..ahaha..good thing Lloyd arrived in a while...he suggested we order the fried chicken....we head back to the office to eat our lunch there..the food was so delicious...twas a big meal but i was able to finish it...

lunch break is from 12-1, and we resumed with our set up after lunch...Juvy and Bing are having bug fix and we helped them with their configuration files....that took our whole afternoon until evening...by 830, we are already hungry and we all wanted to go home...we decided to just finish merging the files, and then we go home...we actually finished merging by 1100pm..ehehe...more like of YRP huh...no dinner until we go home and we can even go home later coz last train will be until 1230...tsk tsk...well at least, we can check our mails and connect to the jabber...ehehe..and it was 5 of us..with lloyd and miss noemi, so it was 7 of us...and we are always talking so its still fun...it seems like were the noisiest in the office :D ahaha...

we went out around 1100pm, then on the way to the station, we passed by matsuya so we decided to eat there :D had my favorite pork rice bowl :D missed it ;) but i wasnt able to finish it coz i was already full and was no longer hungry :(

we arrived at the hotel 1230am...but i actually slept past 1am..and i have to get up early tom..we have to meet at the lobby by 730...tsk tsk..have to get used to this....

btw, on the way to the office, we can see tokyo tower..and its jst so near the office..and also this known and big private schoold known as Keio School something..not sure of the name...gomen ne ;)
