Maybe yakuza only stay in tokyo cuz can get more money there. Today my place around 5 or 6 degree already. I hear tokyo is very cold now. Weird right? Tokyo suppose spring already. End of the world coming?

Tokyo earn more but expenses also more.

Spring still cold...but no cold as winter...spring usually got alot wind blowing that why is cold. raining season now

fimbulvinter, i used Skype to call back Malaysia handphone or local phone. but u need credit card to buy their credit.
Best advise is calling from PC to PC, FREE...

yup i know pc to pc is free but sometimes the internet conection not good especially streamyx or cannot be in front of the computer. Can you teach me more about the skype call thing? How does it work? DO i need a special handphone because my current handphone is old and simple AU model.

For example if i register an accound and pay, then can i use it to call malaysia and then my family in malaysia use the same account to call me?

No, so far no phone can call out using skype unless smart phone from what i know. Like iphone but only under wifi network.

and you cannot use the same account to call.

I always use my PC to call back. oh ya, even PSP can use skype

So if I use my skype account to call malaysia number I need be in front of the pc and my family can be anywhere right since i call their mobile.

Then if they log into my skype account from malaysia pc they cannot use to call my mobile in japan? WHy like that? Is it only can call 1 number or 1 country?

ya, u can call them anywhere using ur pc.
also they can call u anywhere too.

sorry for misunderstand. i thought u mean login the same account at the same time.

ok thanks musha. Did you buy the unlmtied account or the one par per use? How much did u spend for it?

No, i just buy 1500yen and recharge when it is over. as i seldom call. haha

Musha...got the pics on 'Odaiba Drift'?
mind to share?

No la. i did not go. sorry

I have a problem here hopfully someone can help me. Its only been 2 weeks and I have used around 50k yen. I dont know if I underestimate the expenses here or because im just settling in.

My problem is that I dont have enough money to last me to the end of the month. I have been skipping breakfast for the past few days. I dont want to burden my family more as they already paid quite a sum for my study fees.

Can someone sell me yen? I have some savings in my maybank account before I came here so I can transfer over to you through maybank. The rate can be discuss and i dont mind if u charge a small fee for this buy please dont charge too hugh because im still a student.

Anyone please?

fimbulvinter,

JPY 50,000 is about MYR 1900 (JPY 10,000 = approx. MYR 380).
I am just assuming that when you changed currency, the rate was RM38 for every 1000 yen. If higher, then die lor. That is not alot lor. Usually by the 3rd day you should get a feel already your daily expenses.

If you want to eat cheap, go to their convenience store, they sell cheap bentos for below 1000 yen. If you eat at normal japanase restaurant (not fine dining) I can guarantee the price for each meal is equivalent to RM35-RM50 per meal. So imagine lah, if you're in Malaysia, that is already kinda steep!

If you want slightly better food, try Sukiya, another version of Yoshinoya beef bowl. The prices are much better (can get below 1000 yen).Can cook Ramen or anything too. Those are cheap.

Heck, even normal drink there from vending machine cost RM3-5 per can leh.

And when I was there (Osaka, not Tokyo), my daily expenses cost me as much as JPY 5000 per day (food: 3 meals a day, transport). I remember none of the foreign exchange accept Malaysian Ringgit. It has to be US Dollar. Hahahaha... and their rate was sooooo low.

In my opinion, you gotta be frank with your parents. They gotta add a little more. While it's a burden, I am sure they have already took that into account. You just tell them that it's costly. I am sure they will understand? In fact they are the best person to help you if you so wish to buy JPY. Transfer money to them and ask them to buy JPY. Not sure how they gonna send that to you tho? Definitely not by post? Sure MIA wan.

Another thing is ask your parents to send you dry food (maggi mee etc) from here.
