And I've got a lovely husband who prepared for my birthday 

He sang me the birthday song adorably

I made a wish

and blew the candles..

It was simple and classic, but definitely the sweetest birthday I always had .
.ehem* should say it was my birthday's eve  I think this was my first time having my birthday's eve celebrated

He's a stag beetle~  
Species: Lucanus maculifemoratus, Miyama Kuwagata in Japanese (ミヤマクワガタ)
Miyama species is said that, they do not hibernate in winter but are able to go through one winter if conditions met. 

I searched on the internet and I think Miyama is the coolest species of stag beetles

Though is he not as much valued compare to species Dorcus hopei binodulosus, Oo Kuwagata in Japanese (オオクワガタ) which could live for 10 years or so if lucky..

My colleague found this one in the wood and brought him back 

He is consider big and good-looking  but a lil' bit clumsy and thinking of running away..

I'm gonna keeeeeeeep you~ 

Let me outta here 
A net is too not secure to keep Sutsuuni.. 

He just kept cutting the net trying to runaway..
At first, I never thought I'd be serious in keeping Sutsuuni, I mean as a real pet..
I gave him a chunk of radish with honey on top as his food 
Then only I know, beetles do not eat radish but only cucumber or watemelon..
But at least he eats honey! 










Looking at him trying so hard to run away everyday, I decided to give him a nicer and warmer home..

This home is not expensive at all  around 1000yen including his honey food 

Ready to move to new home~ 

New home~ 

And Mami's happy for him too  Mami kinda love him and having fun looking at him everyday 

4 days later...



He laid down weird..
He was struggling to get up..
but he couldn't..
I thought he just fell..
I thought he will be better the next day..
So I waited another day hoping he could get up again..

Not anymore..
He left us..

Sutsunii Rest.In.Peace 
buried under our newly planted morning glory 
 

Today's Mt. Yotei  

It's snowy Autumn~  

Today is specialA few rainbows appeared together at the same time
This is the clearest one 

How exciting and pretty to see a green green Mt.Yotei turning white day by day in front of our eyes 

Waking up and making up on the bed  

There's a street with pretty shop-houses along the river at Boat Quay~
 

And it's lunch-time 

Waiting for lunch 

Had lassi while waiting..
When one having a lassi drink, you should know what we are going to have for lunch

This is my last post for Singapore on this trip.


2 days at Geylang, a nostalgia place which I enjoyed quite much though this place not too popular among my friends . All budget hotels gathered around Geylang 


Then, we had Megazip at Sentosa Island. That was great~ All the way from the mountain to the ocean 


Stayed 1 night at Marina Bay Sands hotel (the main purpose on this trip), mostly just for it's infinity pool → the sky pool 
Had a romantic night  too at the sky park 

Overall, Singapore is a city with lights very happening and fun 

.

.

The Sushi-plate  + 

The Chinese-plate  and Cheese Salad plate 

The serious-face eating all the plates~ 









After dinner, we then back to the top at the sky park breezy break~ 

The quiet sky pool at night  the pool is not opened at night though..

I forgot to bring my shoes to match the dress on this trip..
Sneaker x night dress   how is it  

Working seriously as a video-cam man the whole trip~













 

My private videocam-man~

Was trying to take some pics on high shuttle speed.. 

I love the ocean, love the nature, but sometimes a pool up above on a city could be very exciting 





As the sun goes down, the city started to light up 
Love the gradation of the sky 





As if there were no other people in the pool except he & she  How romantic 
in real, do expect loads more people..

As if, swimming on a cloud..





..2 guys.. sorry..no girls were around..haha

Have a look at the edge of the pool

Day 3 of Singapore ..my updates are so slow.. 


Anyway, in day 3 we transfered to Marina Bay Sands Hotel, which actually our main reason this time to Singapore  - for it's infinity panoramic city view sky pool 

This hotel is known as a 5 stars hotel

3 layers of Heat Tech + uniform jacket = cold but not too extremely 


I even had 2 layers of Heat Tech stockings and 1 pair of socks 



One more way to keep warm is, to MOVE more 



Anyway, thank you for all comments~

I tried snowboarding in Pengin and school-girl Haruka → see blog

I always thought school-girl Haruka would be the more focused one 

..However, don't know why Pengin kinda gained more attention.. unexpectedly

Nice place to have fun in Singapore. But for me, everything was quite pricey.. 




At least, we tried ONE of all activities 

The MEGAZIP 
Not cheap but not bad. It was SGD$29.00 / ride.

Second or more ride after that will be SGD$20.00 / ride.

Megazip was fun~

I love the part when flying through the forest~ 





The Halo~ Konnichiwa video of Megazip  

After Megazip, we just had a walk along the beach, watching people, and so..  didn't had enough time to visit the whole Sentosa Island though.. 

 Watch more of Halo~ Konnichiwa HD - my backpacking trip videos to here and there 

At one point, radiation for Tokyo has increased mSv0.8 more than usual from the leaking, but this amount is not at all a number that would affect any health problem.


Why ill-threat radiation?

Whereas everything are quite the same.

For example, "smoking".

Cigarette is not good for health. Moreover a second-hand smoker.
Over-taking them could be hazardous.

People has too lil' knowledge on radiation..


In fact, instead of radiation leaking, people should start "No Smoking".



Even though it is fine here in Japan, the overseas media has been making a big fuss by exaggerating the facts and tell stories which are not existed.

That is cruel and I hate it!!


Didn't everyone been saying "Help Japan", "Pray for Japan"?


Being panic doesn't help

Being the one who makes everyone panic doesn't help

Stop working and leave Japan out of nothing doesn't help either


Cz any of that would only cause nightmare of a economy crisis..  

Please mean it when you say "Help Japan"  and spread the right facts!





Japan will be even more advance, even more stronger when Japan overcomes the current difficulties It always does 



  

See how all media from all over the world says about Japan.. too sad, too bad
