Friday, I went to Yurakucho to meet my friend Reimi. Before going to that station, I stop by Tokyo station for window shopping....LOL   In Tokyo station, there are 23 preforms for different train line... it is a place so easy to get lost......

之後由東京站行15分鐘便到了有樂町站....非常的近~~~可以省了130YEN之外又可以減下肥....(那天天氣是34.5度,在澳洲一定不會外出的)
After the window shopping in underground shopping mall, I walk from Tokyo station to Yurakucho station. Then I can save 130yen also do some exercise. (That day was 34.5C... if I m Australia I will not going out!!)

First day in Tokyo ( Job interview) 上京的第一整天(面試編)

After the long travel from Melbourne to Tokyo, I went to bed so early! For my interview preparation, I need to say Thank you to brother Chion Leung give me a good advice and Sarah Wong (my little sister) went to shop suit with me in Zara.
經過這麼長的飛行時間由墨爾本到東京, 真的累壞了很早便跳了上床大睡!加上明早是面試日~ 說起面試, 我真的要向梁兄弟說多謝!給了我很多意見!!!還有我的妹妹SARAH陪我到ZARA買西裝

Ｍy 1st day in Tokyo, I have to go to the CNF Job Fair for interviews. The Job Fair was located in Tokyo Big Sight host by Disco International Company. That day, over 200 Japanese and international companies join this event for this mid year and next year recruitment.

That was what I wore for that day. Suit jecket and skirt from ZARA and shose from Target. I was pretty nervous so I always need to go to bathroom and that day I felt unwell.  But I try my best to impress the interviewers.... in the end of the event, I also got a gift card (only the first 300 early entry students)

到了東京私第一天就要去招聘會，這就是當天的面試服

當天本想多拍一些照, 無奈因為臨時多了3間公司的面試所以緊張得常常去洗手間!!!

我都因為早到了招聘會場所以可以拿到1千日元的禮品卡!!!要好好利用，雖然不多錢但好開心～

出發了!!!到達了!!! Departure and Arrival!!!

Let's go! this long flight is from Melbourne--> Sydney-->Beijing-->Tokyo(Haneda) Via Air China.

This journey full of adventure, first start with my flight from Melbourne to Sydney... Actually, I have no idea what i need to do! =.=" I only knew my luggage will send from Melbourne to Tokyo without any worry. However, I didn't know I need to check-in again. So when I arrived Sydney is 6.50 pm then my next flight is 8 pm. And I knew I will not have enough time to do anything so I have ask flight attendant to give me a guide. However, it is hopeless... coz, they doesn't know at all.
Also,  I have to run (not run is dash) to the gate with in 10min. inculding the custome check! Thanks for the counter staff.... I m able to walk in the express line. (Because of that I am not ablet to take the gate photo, but there is a waiting for transfer bus photo)  

好了, 出發去我的長途旅程! 由墨爾本-->悉尼-->北京-->東京(羽田)坐中國國際航空

這個旅程充滿歷險,先是我飛往悉尼時, 要重新CHECK-IN.... 我早知道時間不夠多...所以已經去問空姐...可是她們什麼都不知...真無奈!
還要跑(應該是飛)過去閘門才能趕上飛機! 用10分鐘連過海關(都要多得櫃台小姐給我特別通行證才可以路路暢通(就這樣我就沒有時間拍下閘口照,只有等轉機巴士照)

After get on broad, I realize my seat had already mark out for the flight attendants, so they gave me a better seat. ( which 2 seats for me and 2 seats for the Russian guy) And I am like " what a lucky, better seat and more space"  After settle down, a uneducated Chinese med age man without asking then took my space and want me and the Russian guy squids in our seat without a laying back. Coz, the whole around people are the same group with him.  So they were having party until the flight arrive Beijing.(that was 11 hours flight)

   

登機後....我被發了機組人員休息的位置....之後因為是給錯位置所以可以有一個更寬的位置(2人坐位), 心在想...這也不錯..可以把腿申展一下!!!可是.....沒有常識的大叔...有自己位不坐跑來搶奪我的位置.....(X.X) 就這樣...完本我和另一個俄國人可以每人有2個坐位...變成了..每人一個小小的坐位(註:不能向後敞的坐位) 因為後而亦是大叔同一夥的人....又吵又鬧...沒完沒了直到北京為止!!!!!(11個小時飛機)

Finally, finish that nightmare and I have arrive Beijing.
Beijing airport is hug!

終於過了這惡夢般的一程到了北京.....而第一次到北京機場.....感覺空曠(好大)

 Arrive there in the morning 5.50 am the sky is bright but it was foggy?! 

No, it was pollution.... hardly to see far away view.... I think I will go to visit Beijing.

Then my flight at 8.45 to Tokyo (Haneda)

又因為到達時是早上5點50分.....天好亮不過外面好朦朧...應該是污染問題.....只能看到近的東西, 真不知道機長怎樣把飛機降落得這麼好.......
8點45分再次起行飛往東京羽田
