Air Gun1. singapore does not have much in terms of 'violent crimes' due to the gun ban.
2. singapore also don't have bands of roaming 'outlaws' with guns.
your gun theories don't really apply to the real world.

Nozomu Itoshikitooooo cute!!! i want that and nendoroid L.

Japanese Transportwhen i visited london 7 yrs ago, i thought the trains ran on time and stations really clean especially compared to new york. but i love the subways dirt and all, buses in manhattan run slow and always get caught in traffic while the outer boroughs ar...
DS New Model 2008the r4ds (and other products) allow u to play mp3s and video and do other questionable things on ur ds <_<, i dont know if nintendo can totally stop their sales.
the souped up ds does sound nifty, tho the camera idea seems strange, and the price di...
Japanese Breakfastas a kid i always ate breakfast but when i got to high school i just couldnt bring myself to eat anything(or drink any milk) within 2-3 hrs after waking up, my stomach cant take it. nowadays i would always drink a cup of green tea before i leave the...
Japanese Ghostsi think when i see things like this and certain ghosts/horror movies, i get scared at the imagery and the thought of being in that position (or the idea of it being real) more than the actual thing itself. i guess it's like i'm scaring myself with th...
Bilingual in Japani can speak cantonese ok, can't really read or write chinese (maybe a kindergarden level of word recognition). when i was 5 i picked up mandarin easily during a long stay in beijin, but as soon as we left, it left me.
my parents didn't invest in an...

Eye Talki hate the assumption that asian ppl all have 'single eyelid'. a lot of asians such as myself, are naturally 'double lidded'. but asians always have pigeon holed beauty into one 'universal' standard.
Men Wear Braseven sadder, studies show the bras can't fight nature and gravity, the sag will win in the end. unless i go out i don't bother with it, and i work from home so i can go days without. :)
The end of Code Geassthese types of stories has to end, it cant go on as a never-ending war. but i have no idea how they will end it and what kind of closure we can get.
Grave of the Fireflies Live Actioni couldn't finish watching the anime(or even begin to watch, it starts out already 'over'). i'm sure it was a masterpiece but it's waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too depressing. the live action movies would hinge on the child actors, and i can't imagine a child ac...

Karen GirlsSmoosh always had creepy looking old guys at their concerts, but they may be too old for them now. Disney likes their girl bands a bit older but i think they like little boy bands.
Krispy Kreme Tokyokrispy kremes are only good when they are still hot, when they are cold they're the same as any other yeast donut. dont eat more than one at a time unless you have an iron stomach. i havent had one in years, and rather not waste calories on it.
