This is the last part of my thoughts that I jotted down as I was traveling around Kyoto and Osaka.
Osaka Musings 5/3
- It's so hot.
- Eating alone is getting easier, but I'm about to go on a ferris wheel alone. Is that too sad? Should I jump out at the peak?
-What was Osaka thinking when they decided to build a ferris wheel on top of a tall building? Hello?! Earthquakes?!
-The waitress at the restaurant said that I was beautiful. It has to be true right?! I mean, people don't tip here so she's not fishing for one, heeeeee.
-It's a nice night for a date on the ferris wheel - SIGH SIGH SIGH
-I bet people do it during the ride. It lasts for at least 10 minutes (depending on the guy, they would still have about 7 minutes to enjoy the view)
Osaka Day 2 - 5/4
-I love doing everything at my own pace. This is the best part of travelling alone.
-It's been Day 5 in Japan and I still managed not to use a squatter. Way to go, Linda. How did I do this? Just use the baby changing/handicapped stalls.
-Huge shopping urge: REFRAIN!
-Walking is fun when there is something to look at. I've been walking a lot and I'm happy that I never take the same way down even if I don't know where the path will lead me.
-Yay! I found Hanamaru.
-I just saw the cutest and hottest train driver in Osaka. Should I pretend to be lost?
-I am enjoying travelling by myself more than I thought I would. Why? I get to decide the time. I can climb all the way to Osaka Castle and sit by the water for as long as I want. I don't need to strike up a conversation. I don't need to worry about if the other person wants to leave or is bored of the current location. I don't even need to think.
-I must come back to Osaka/Kyoto during Cherry Blossom season with my boyfriend or Terry.
Osaka Day 3 - Last day
-This is the first time since summer that I'm wearing a skirt without leggings. It's so hot/ My hair is frizzy and I want ice cream all the time.
-Black sesame ice cream: I <3 you
-Taking sticker pictures alone is the best. I love being the center of attention (sometimes).
-I'm on the airplane now heading back to Seoul. The turbulence is CRAZY. I'm so scared right now. I think I developed a small fear to fly since from my Cambodia to Seoul flight back in February. I'm starting to freak out a little and this is the part of my trip that I really don't want to be alone. Plane is shaking like a mother...
Well, obviously...I made it.
