SUGOI! OMEDETOU!
Hey, I’m from Baguio, where the exhibit has been up since the 2nd of February (in SM City Baguio). Excellent selection. Killer humor, Lyndon. My Japanese friend also laughed when she read your portion in the exhibit.
I hate to be partisanal, or even just judgmental, but yours seemed to be the most refined of the techniques. Ganbareyou!
arashiwantsme: Actually, Lyndon already did go to Japan already last November of 2006. Ngayon lang nakadating dito yung exhibit kasi nilibot pa sya sa ibang Asian countries. You can read about the Japan storyline starting here: Beerkada goes to Japan
