What have I been doing since I met up Issa and Jeannie in Japan way back when? Well, many things- trying to up my ante in the photography realm as you saw through the collaborative photoshoot with Issa and Tramanh of phi-style. There's another photo project that'll be showing up on phi-style in the near future that I am quite pleased with, so check back with her page and leave her some comments. Of course my own shots will be the same blah since I can't quite shoot myself properly. It'd be like asking a brain surgeon to perform surgery on himself.

T-shirt: Some store in Japan; Shorts: Zara; Shoes: Penguin
Check out this awesome t-shirt I picked up in Japan. It's a pig! Everyone loves tonkatsu, right? Right. When I wear it, though, it becomes a chauvinist pig.

Look, there is even a pig's tail on the back. So much cute and not to be confused with a pigtail.
Anyway, Issa got to post pics from her trip to Japan, so I figured it is only fair that I get to share some of my favorite shots from the trip (albeit a few months late). Click on the image to get a larger version:
