Well guys as some of you know, many life changing events happened
to me during my last vacation in the Philippines. I would like to express my gratitude to the persons who've helped during these
times (namely Adrian at Jolly) and to the ravens who have extended their sympathy. This just shows that the Republic is more than just
your average forum group on the net, and which makes me proud to say that I'm a part of. Thanks guys!

Moving on with my life, I'm now back here in Japan. Back to deliver
some info, sights, sounds and other trivial things about the country referred to as
"the land of the rising sun" (the birth place of AC, if u like to call it )
The apartment where I stay at, just your average apartment in Japan i suppose
The room where time has stopped
Here is what its like outside at night (the temperature here now
ranges from 0 to 7 degrees C., thats enough to make your ears
and nose numb in seconds)
Unto something more interesting: FOOD!
Japanese Curry (official food of the Republic! )
Katsu-Kare (Tonkatsu and Curry)
c/o Kamadoya (a bento take-out resto from accross the street)
@Rick: You got to try this bro, nothing like the original. Completely
different from what u can make out of those commercially sold curry paste.
Anpan (Bean paste bread)
Nothing beats eating freshly baked ones during these cold season.
I think most of you are more familiar with them being fish shaped .
Next stop: Model Kits
As u all heard, Bandai recently released a new Gundam model kit from their MG line. The Unicorn Gundam ver.KA
They literally stocked up on this new kit in every mall, enticing me
to buy one rather than the intended extreme burst destiny which I
originally plan on buying.
I'll post the juicy contents later

Thats all (for now )
