Earlier, I got a nasty email from someone who said "I knew what she meant" referring to haircuts and makeup for Asians. I did not know what she meant because Asia is the largest and most diverse continent:

After studying Japanese in Japan to fluency, I would like to study Economics at a Japanese university. How hard are Japanese universities to get into compared to UK universities? Are there universities where you can get in as long as you can pay (they don't care if you did poorly at school)?

I was looking at http://www.travel.state.gov the other day on information on getting a passport for travel to the Philippines.

I just 2 questions on the matter.

When first-time applying for a passport and once I receive it, is it require to wait at least 6 months before traveling to the Philippines with the passport? I just read something about it, but maybe I am thinking of where I read it needs to be valid for at least six months beyond the intended period of stay.

Question 2:
I was looking at the DS-11 application for US passport and the very last part where it says Travel Plans, I was wondering, is this require to be filled out? I mean, given the exact date of the trip.

I don't have any plan date yet and just looking for what is involve if I ever did decide to travel to the country. I figure I could get a passport in the near future so I will at least have that.

Hope none of my questions are too stupid :P

Thanks!
Andy

Heading to Macau in a couple of weeks and would like some info about good eateries, places of interest, etc. I would rather see the "real" Macau than the ultra touristy places. So, any hints or tips about where to go for a bit of a cultural shake up would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys

For the expats.. where are you originally from, how long will you be staying and what do you HONESTLY think of Singapore?? I'm from New York and only staying until the end of the year (been here since April 06) and honestly... it's pretty but really quite boring.

I just saw the film and enjoyed it, but had a few questions and reservations (e.g., only the most American-influenced Japanese soldiers seemed capable of mercy or compassion).

I'd like to know how Japanese film critics have received the film. I know it's playing in Shibuya, for example, and was a box office hit in its first weekend, but can't find any reviews online.

I am especially interested in finding professionally published film reviews on the film, available online, from Japanese media, i.e. newspapers, magazines, TV broadcasts.

I'm posting this question here instead of under "film" in hopes of reaching more people who are in Japan, or who have more access than I do to Japanese media sources.

I stayed with my family in The Summer Place Hotel in Baguio because it was the only hotel with vacant rooms at that time. I am just curious to learn what other people's experience of the hotel are, either personal or hearsay. The peculiarity of the Summer Place is that the street level entrance in on the TOP floor.. cool, huh ?!
(2) Who has flown from Manila to Baguio in Asian Spirit ? How did you guys like the views from 10,000' ??? Superb or what ???? I --I am not Pinoy ( I am English) but I have already realised that the Philippines are not only about Boracay and other important tourist spots.
