Summer in Tokyo! (or should i say End-of-summer...)

The time is 5.07 AM. (don`t ask me why i am awake at this time. I haven`t gone to bed.)

Check out the scene outside my window:

Welcome to summer in Tokyo.. when darkness falls at 6.10pm and dusk starts at 4+ am. Did I mention that the humidity seems worse than Singapore? It`s irritatingly hot and sticky and all of us are falling asleep in the afternoon classes.

Captured this using my Nokia after school last week. Amazing right? Looks like some movie where the sky parted and something/someone magnificent is going to come through. maybe God? *Smile* But it was a very very hot day (especially if you have to walk like 15 minutes carrying tonnes of Japanese textbooks after stoning for the past few hours in a overheated classroom filled with irritated drowsy students).

Thank God it is 残夏 (zanshuu) now. A pretty name to denote the end of summer. Yeah autumn`s coming and it is my favourite Trenchcoat time of the year!! Even the departmental stores are putting up autumn stuff in their display. Cool! Can`t wait for my 2odegree days to come!
