		<description><![CDATA[Well, not physically.
I&#8217;ll be moving on to a new blog. The wacky wombat weblog.
No, I&#8217;m neither secretly an animal researcher specialising in wombats, nor can I confirm with you that they are wacky. It&#8217;s just an inane blog name that me and au yong came up with.
What it really is: a combined blog for me and him. Sort [...]]]></description>

I know I&#8217;ve only adopted her as my own pet (hehe   ) just less than 2 years ago, but I guess I&#8217;ve kinda grown attached to Gigi.
I&#8217;ll miss how she&#8217;ll sniff my toes and jump around me excitedly when I visit. Plus she&#8217;s the only dog whom I can share durian with. And [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yup, I&#8217;ve not disappeared with the rest of my Japan postings. I just merely took a break.    I can explain.
You see, this blog of mine was about to be merged with this other blog. So I was supposed to stop posting new material while the blog gets migrated. But, things were not to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[woohoo! Au Yong applied for leave and it&#8217;s approved so we&#8217;re headed west to ex-Japan-capitol Kyoto next week!
Will be our first time on the shinkansen (bullet train). I love trains.  
Wanted to stay in a traditional ryokan, but turns out they&#8217;re pretty expensive in Kyoto. Especially compared to the great package deal we got [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I never really liked beer. Gassy, bloats me up, bleah. Quite puke-inducing sometimes too, so, definitely bleah.
Of course, there are exceptions to the rule. For example, Brewerkz. And since my Tokyo visit, Japanese beer. And I&#8217;ve just discovered something else &#8212; Hoegaarden beer!
Friday night &#8212; TGIF (for Au Yong), and a little treasure hunt downtown.

		<description><![CDATA[Visited Odaiba last week. It&#8217;s an artificial island south of Tokyo, with artificial beach (hmm sounds like Sentosa island haha) and an abundance of weird architechture that was born out of the excesses of the 80s economy (and maybe too high a dosage of sci-fi movies too).
Au Yong was actually there for some tech-geek exhibition [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This time round I took a long ride up north to Ueno station for a glimpse of Old Tokyo.
Unfortunately for me, I missed the sakura by 2 months, so I headed off to the Shinobazu Pond in Ueno Park for the summer view.
It&#8217;s a charming little spot, with huge lotus leaves spreading over a large [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It all began with this photo.

Au Yong snapped this some time ago cos he thought I would love the bear as it has a large red button and I love buttons. And he was right.
I thought it was the cutest thing, and I named it &#8216;pnyek&#8217;. It&#8217;s just a word I made up. Kinda like [...]]]></description>
