Class Trip

forgot to upload this two pics.. lazy to arrange.. so as an intro, this was the guide to our trip. the guys were all hitting on her from questions like 'how old r u?' to ' r u single?' :P


my class recently had a class trip to idemitsu petroleum plant,nagoya central airport and toyota's commerative museum.

so i'll start with idemitsu..honestly i wasnt interested at all.. i mean it's just another petronas(not tht i ever visited petronas though). initiall we were supposed/wanted to go kawasaki heavy industries where they build planes, engines those sorts of crap. but in the end. it's also has military secrets that foreigners arent allowed to see..wtf?! what can a malaysian like me do?!hell i'm even more of a pacifist than japanese. but idemitsu wasnt tht bad.. only let down was that half the time we were in a conference room! blah..

nagoya central airport was slightly much better..looks like klia but much cooler.. with an open deck for viewing planes and some retro restaurants.had lunch there at the hotel.. for 1800 buffet, it was pretty good.

next stop was toyota's commerative museum at nagoya.. any wannabe engineer should pay a visit here. could have easily spend a day here but instead we only had an hour. here's a 'i bet u din know fact' toyota was originally a textile company! alot of textile machines, cars, engines.. a simulation on how cars are built.. lotsa factory robots there. and almost every engine toyota has ever made!
