Actress mirror (aka 女優ミラー)

Was introduced by one of my friends to this wonderful product - Actress Mirror. It is a mirror that comes with LED light. The user can just turn on the LED light by turning the side of the mirror. 

There are also a number of designs of such mirrors sold in Japan. For those interested to buy one, you can check out this Japan site - http://www.train-shop.net/fs/trainshop/c/jyoyuu. Alternatively you can also try to source cheaper one on ebay.com. 

To go or not to go?

Have been traveling over the past few weeks. Visited Malaysia - KL in end of Mar and Europe during Apr. If not for the earthquake in Japan, I would have been making a trip to Japan instead of Europe in Apr to see the Sakura and visit the Alpine route.

Know a few friends who would be visiting Japan in the coming month and the following month by taking the airfare promotion from Singapore to Japan offered by SIA.

I am very much tempted to visit Japan again soon. But in my heart, I am struggling with that thought of going and not going. I know my parents would be concern about me going to Japan, a place that they perceived as dangerous. However, knowing the situation in Japan now, I feel that it is still as relatively a safe place to visit and not as dangerous as my parents think. 

To go or not to go is a tough decision... :(

Earthquake and Tsunami in Tokyo

Was watching news about the Earthquake and Tsunami in Japan Tokyo and keep up with the updates in Japan through NHK World website. I was very sad over the loss of lives and the damages to the buildings as a result of the Earthquake and Tsunami. 


My sincere condolences to those affected and wish that with supports from all over the world, Japan should be able to rebuilt what they have lost in this disaster.
