Shift Happens - Did You KnowI thought a cool title instead of shift happens is "shit happens". After all, with such shocking revelations, shit hits the people.
Japan Optic Fiber InternetSometimes the manuals for Japanese language in Singapore aren't even localized. The smileys, must be to emphasize a warm service culture.
A Week in Tokyo 32I'm a bit of a conservative, so I tend not to prefer reading e-books. The traditional paperback is more fun and since it is solid I feel a better sense of ownership.
Most Accurate Translation EverI was thinking: Why not?! The informal language gives off the sense of being hey-we-are-ur-friend. At least youth will understand its meaning faster.
Mirai School UniformSailor Fukus are epic win.
But I was thinking Mirai in a western style school uniform complete with blazer is attractive too. I would be interested to see that happening.
Tokyo Photo Walk 3I feel something worth noting is that the fear of taking such leaps can be quite pervasive in society at times.
As Blowfish said:
I think the biggest fear that prevents someone from following their dream is the fear of failing and becoming a human...
Classifieds OpenIf these can be used to circulate second-hand anime goods, this would be interesting. Especially if you can get at a lower price than Ebay, etc. Oh yes this could spread the otaku love. ^^
Yokohama ChinatownFrequent exposure to chinese food, having grown up in a chinese environment made chinese food such a normal thing to me that it is rarely more than average. My favourite among them would be chinese chicken rice.
Dragonball TrailerI would say there are somethings that look good in anime/manga form and things that do not. Dragonball would be one of them. The characters just look too out-of-the-world to be taken seriously in live-action form.
Bullying in JapanI was bullied quite badly in that in nearly all I took part in at school during Lower sec, I was called names, excluded by everyone else, shoved, etc. The biggest problem was the part about being excluded, as everyone was determined not to make frien...
Japanese Language Proficiency TestWould love to take JLPT when I can, currently learning basic Japanese. Only gotten as far as learning all the hiragana and a bit of Katakana. Have some Japanese vocabulary and knowledge of sentence structure, but any contact with Japanese language wi...
MeishiWell, the Nitro+ card is nice. Rimi leaves an impression on me! ^^
I'm not sure about name cards though as nobody around me does it. For me normally it would just involve exchanging phone no.s if there was "networking". I suppose it could be a confi...
Worm ManI can take ants and small bugs just fine. But roacher and anything with long antennas and long thin legs freak me out. But worms are just as bad too, because their movemtns without any legs or anything scare me.
Toyosu Photo WalkAs a quiet guy with lower than average self-esteem, I have at times attracted haters. In fact these periods of being hated tend to correspond to the moments of my life where I was weakest, eg. doing badly at school, Just troubled by problems and so o...
Japanese HousingActually, about them embarrassing foreigners, its not too unusual, I think it happens everywhere, but it is just a matter of degree. Even in multiracial Singapore, we have people of one race refusing to rent a home to another. Not that the government...
Japanese TransportPublic transport in Singapore is something you cant go wrong with. Given the size of Singapore, nearly everywhere is accessible by buses and trains, but having a capable government to run the transport systems does help a lot.
The stations and bus...
DS New Model 2008I never really particularly liked the DS because most of the games I saw did not have graphics anything like what I saw on PSPs(I might be wrong though^^). I dont think of Nintendo products as sleek, but with new DS I say it does look sleek.
Great Postal ServiceEVerywhere is plagued by the occasional or frequent poor service due to characters who dont take pride in their work. If it was a accident it is fine and normal though.
Collector's ParadiseHe should sell or hide those he like less and display only the ones he likes more. Excessive figures will draw attention from the individual appeal of each figure. Furthermore, it looks like just a mass of plastics. Not exactly a collector's paradise...
