Hokkaido GuideI read up the wiki on the Ainu people. That's some interesting history! It's unfortunate that their culture has been hampered with so much...anyways, the green fields I get to see a lot of from where I'm from, but I feel compelled to give city life...
Lumix GF1holy sweetness! I was wondering when an lx3 successor would come...but because this is using the new 4/3 system I don't feel like it totally is the lx3's successor...
and because I seem to put emphasis on super pocketable...I'm going to keep equipp...
NikonThose lenses secretly scare me...they can cost more than my house I bet! It frightens me to think of how careful you need to be with those lenses...
A Week in SingaporeI agree with the bad publicity part I guess...what you need is honorable publicity! How do you let your mind get around the natural frustration that comes with negative publicity?
Hikikomoriintroduce him to a group of friends to get him socializing with other people...if he seems more like a sociopath...then hire someone to ransack his toy collection, and to leave bags of poo under his bed!!! punishment!!! :oP
LUMIX LX3The LX3 is quite a bit bigger on width than IXYs. I had a hard time trying to fit it attractively into my pocket. I think you would need a bag/case for it.
LUMIX LX3Darnit Danny! I currently have the LX3 and the Canon SD880 in front of me right now. I've only each for a few days and I was trying to settle on just one of them. After much pain of the heart...I settled for the SD880, for it's compactness (it sli...
A Week in Tokyo 25I really like how you're pulling up these thoughts out in your posts. Extremely insightful.
Plus, it is way cool that you're immortalized in that amazing art piece.
I thought this over a bit and...wouldn't those boobies have lots of germs? With all those sweaty hands groping them, wouldn't it be the same as rubbing your palm on a washroom doorknob? Me think so. Maybe they'd have antibacterial cream on the sid...
A Week in Tokyo 23I went to HK awhile back and over did it with the figure buying. Seeing the prices there compared to the prices you see here in Canada gave me a case of the crazies. I am now exercizing a lot of self-discipline...
And road repairs here in Toronto...
Japanese GirlsWhile I was scrolling through your post, I couldn't help but imagine you come across a nemesis. Like what Falryu is saying about Darth Vader, maybe he'll suddenly appear to confront you. What would you do then? I'm thinking dance off.
Would it be...
AkihabaraI ran away from my tour group just to visit Akihabara!
Plus...I wanted to announce that I've recently picked up a figma toy...and yes, I heard it here first. I'm very happy, but I have a headache now too...maybe it's because I'm too happy?
Yokohama Photo WalkI don't have a scheduled thinking walk that I go out and do. I've only randomly walked out the door by myself to explore nooks and crannies I haven't seen yet. I call these my exploring adventures (sometimes by foot or bike). Usually in this time...
Good Smile WarehouseSupermarket Sweeeeep! I always imagined that my strategy in that game show would be to clothesline the entire aisle of groceries into my cart...this wouldn't be possible with all those large boxes...
Maid Dry CleaningThere was this one that used to be on the ground floor of a senior citizen residence around my area...but I'm not sure what the status of it is now. Unfortunately, I never got a chance to go.
Room Of GirlsI would slap one of their bums so hard that a bowel movement may result, maybe even death. This would help me figure out if something was afoot.
The Early Years 1Danny, how'd you pick up on so many different dialects?
I've got English and Cantonese as my main languages, and Japanese as a work in progress. I'm going to need to intensify my exposure to the Japanese language somehow...
A Week in Los AngelesI've got plenty of space here; my room in my house I think is bigger than some apartments I've seen in Hong Kong. But I'm not sure where I stand on the space issue...I think I'd like to live in something a little more cramped...I'll need to try it o...
