Sunday
Mummy's Japanese client's son would be arriving in S'pore today...
He's coming over to study...
He'd be taking an intensive English
course for half a year...

We went to pick him up at the airport in the afternoon...
Before he arrived...
Mummy : "You all help to look out for him kie..."

Me & Jes : "Orh..." (Holding on to his photo which looks extremely nerdy and not appealing)

After a while...
Jes : "Oh my! Is it that one wearing khaki?"

Me: "Where got so handsome?" (Still looking)

As he walks nearer...
Me : "Yeah...Jes, I think its him leh..."

Hurries to the gate...
There he is...
He's name is Noriyasu Yohiaki.
We call him Yoshi.
He's 18 going on 19 this year...

We've all got to admit that he's pretty good looking...
But he's a very shy boy...

We brought him to his hostel...
Then to get him a
mobile phone...
Then for dinner at a Japanese restaurant at Takashimaya, Chikuyotei...


Monday
Today, Mummy wants me to do her a big favour...
She needs me to bring Yoshi around Singapore...
Teach him how to get to
school from his hostel by the train...

Thinking that it'd be very difficult for him to talk to me, bcos he's so shy (esp towards girls)
I pulled Gab along with me...
Else it'll be so weird if i were to go alone...

Early in the morning, we went over to Yoshi's hostel at Chinatown...
Taught him how to get to Chinatown MRT station...
Had Mcdonalds for breakfast...(He loves Mcdonalds)

We took the
train over to Clementi...
He had to sit for a test to see his standard of English...
Gab and I waited for him ...
The receptionist at the
school was talking to us...
Receptionist : "He very handsome hor...Very cute leh..."

Me: "Hahaha..But very shy..."
(Actually, he can understand when we speak to him in English, but he finds it difficult to express himself bcos' he's not very confidant in speaking)


So after the test...
They decided to post him to the Somerset branch... (which is nearer to his hostel)
So we brought him back to Chinatown station and taught him how to get to Somerset...


Later in the noon, we introduced Zho Kiu to Yoshi...
Then we walked around together before settling down for lunch at Cafe Cartel...
It was already 3pm by then...

The rest of the day was spent walking around...
Helping him get familiarise to S'pore...
Evening, we had a game of pool...

Nite, we brought him back to his hostel...
He thanked us and told us he enjoyed his day...
I ensured he knows the way to school and gave him a lil' map in case he loses his way...

He's still unfamiliar to the country, and its very nice of him to actually think that he shouldn't waste his money anyhow becos his mum has to pay for all his expenses...
We brought him to the supermarket at Isetan Shaw, cos he can find lots of Japanese stuffs there...
But he bought nothing...
