Yes. Just like what the title has mentioned, I'll say goodbye to VLC Media Player. It has been a pleasant experience working with VLC up until H264 or .mkv format files are released. VLC has been unable to handle mkv files that good compared to VLC. And thanks to gg fansubs, I got to know Zoom Player.

2 more weeks and I will be flying back to Singapore.
Totally can't wait for it.
I will bring back a lot of media entertainment for you guys.

PS. Should I change my blog to livejournal instead of blogspot?

One Fine Day - 어느 멋진 날
MBC '06
Synopsis: After Seo Haneul (Sung Yu Ri) lost her mother in a fire, she was later adopted by a wealthy family and experienced a life of many twists and turns. Seo Gun's (Gong Yoo) father had married an unwed mother, thus making Seo Haneul his sister in the eyes of the law. After their parents passed away, Seo Haneul was adopted by a wealthy chairman of a large organization who has also became a gangster. Upon using Haneul to extort money, Seo Gun and Haneul slowly fall in love with each other.

Oops. didn't put in any effort into the banner. W/E.
Just finished watching this old drama. Wanted to see more of Gong Yoo's works. Unexpectedly, this drama is better than what I expected. Great soundtrack, Great storyline. However, somewhere in the middle of the story, there were "drags" around the whole drama. Overall, worth to spend my time watching the drama.

Ha. Grats to Gong Yoo to be the most wanted actor and Yoon Eun Hye as the most wanted actress. Most of all, Coffee Prince is the most wanted drama!! Credit: here

What should I watch next? Bad Love? Robbers? or various dvdrip'ed movies that I've downloaded?

Hmmph. First of all, congrats to cece mariana for her engagement. Sorry that I didn't wish congratulate you on that day. I doubt you will see this either though.

One last week to spring break. Wanted to go to Seattle for spring break but couldn't manage to get any cheap ticket. Hoping for the price to go lower once the spring break starts.

Was surfing youtube and I found a channel that suits my mom so much. Featuring all the women's branded goods fashion show - Prada, Gucci, Balenciaga. I'm already trained to know all these branded goods when I'm not supposed to. Got bored and watched menswear too LOL! Found out that CK, Giorgio Armani & Emporio Armani has the best collection so far for FW07-08 & FW08-09.

Finally, and yet, I'm still not over Coffee Prince.
I want to change my bgm, but Anson Hu's song is simply nice that I don't feel like taking them down. I remembered the day when I recommended this song to like everyone. All were stunned by the song but eventually love it in the end lol!!

I want to change my clothing style. It's been weird since I cannot move on from coffee prince since the day I finished watching the whole series. I want to watch more Choi Han Kyul & Go Eun Chan. It is rumoured to release the 2nd series, I hope that Gong yoo will still be inside the series if there are the 2nd series. No one can take the place of Choi Han Kyul from Gong Yoo.

Next week is exam week. WTF.
Monday - Fin 330
Tuesday - Philo 241

Wah, my blog is molding. Decide to write a new post.
First of all, Happy Chinese New Year everybody!! Hope that you guys get alot of ang baos.

Second of all, I would like to proudly announce I am a Coffee Prince camper. I think this drama has the most influence in me. Not only in fashion but also in a lot of perspective. Made me thought a lot of my future. *though maybe it's not due to this drama, the fact that i started to think was after I watch finish this drama*
I decided to learn both Korean and Japanese during this Summer semester. More anticipating to learn Korean than Japanese though.

My Girl. I'm sorry. I guess Coffee Prince has taken your position.

Lastly, there is a winter storm today. I was hoping for a cancellation of class yet the classes were still open. How lame. Big snowing day and you have to go to school. Jesus. I've been waiting the sole opportunity for a winterstorm to cancel the classes I've taken. Yet, they didn't cancel since the morning and cancelled the classes after 3+ pm. WTF. Why am i so unlucky?!?!

I WANT LG PRADA.

Watched a few movies lately. I watched Sweeney Todd, Atonement, Alien vs Predator and Charlie Wilson's War.
All these are sort of a disappointment. None of them are of my type of movies. Especially Sweeney Todd, that's like the only movie that I expected it to be good. Yet it was so musical!!

There was a barber and his wife. And she was beautiful.

I feel you Joanna.

Totally can't forget how irritated I was whenever the musical starts. It was like Oh not again!! or sigh, here comes here comes.
I want to watch I am Legend, Alvin and the chipmunks and National Treasure. Upcoming movies that I'm interested is JUMPER. I want to watch Rachel Bilson!!! Rachel Bilson is hot in the trailer.

I also bought 5 comics recently. All were updates of my collections.
Book 19 & 20: Tsubasa Chronicle
Book 2 & 3: Blue Dragon
Book 11: Ouran High School Host Club

Recently, there were so many of "first times". My first time of playing poker, first time being drunk and most of all first time going clubbing. I love getting drunk. It just felt so good to sleep when you're drunk. I hope I'm not alcoholic lol.
Clubbing was a hella out of an experience. I hope Steph was fine on that day. You look very pissed, steph. If I spoilt the mood on that day, I'm sorry.

Gotta end the post and continue watching Ghost Whisperer.
Anyway, Merry Belated Christmas and Happy New Year 2008.

To prevent this blog from dying, I shall write some stuff then. -____-. Let's see.

Halloween. Hmm. Yeah, did nothing much during Halloween.
Edit--
Aargh, I reformatted my laptop during Halloween. Somehow, it felt really nice to reformat although I lost all my light textures and icon textures for photoshoping. The whole laptop felt like a brand new clean laptop. Having not a single music, videos and pictures.
Currently, I really got into American tv shows. I downloaded the whole season of Heroes Season 1 and Season 2 up to date. I also downloaded the new tv show "Gossip Girl". Thanks to steph for "introducing" this tv show. And steph, I really demand a scorpio tiger please!!

Birthday. Hmm. Other than being old another year, all thanks to steph and Brian for handmaking the cake.

Works. Hmm. Yeah, today spent like 1-2 hours trying to come up with a cowboy theme movie poster of Jay. This is my first time trying to make a poster and I absolutely produce a "so-not-like" movie poster.

Does it look like a movie poster? No, right!!?
Somemore, it is not attention-grabber. The movie will definitely be a failure lol.
Before reformatting the laptop, I had some coloring trials for photoshop. Unexpectedly, I didn't save any of them.

Better end the post here. Nothing more to write for the moment.

yay! effin' exam is finally over. Well, at least the accounting part. I've studied accounting for like three days and somehow when I looked at the paper, it made me feel like as if I only studied for only 1 day. WTF. Seriously, if I had knew how hard the paper would be, I would have spent more time on OTM. YS, you came back home just at the right moment. Your stories of your living-in-hell NS life just made my day on that day. It was too bad that you had to go back to your bunk back so fast. We would have chatted longer and kept on dissing on how stupid those singaporean commander/instructors are. No offense though. But those people really had to think about their own life.

I agreed with what you've said. Our life and their life are totally different. We had a brighter future compared to theirs. They will stuck with just becoming a worthless-brave soldier. This world is just so surreal. Reality bites. Hotaru no Haka is a reality-moraled theme story. It is true that everyone will look up to you if you were to die for the country. But seriously what for? In this world, people will only grieve over you for at most around five years. After five years, who will remember and "visit" you? None.

I had read an article from Badger Herald. It was about the 9/11 incident. It was stating that the number of people who visited to site has lessened compared to the first year. Well, Duh!!! People move on. I sincerely felt so sad for you to waste your precious two years in NS.

Poor you has to suffer and eat those worse-than-junk food. Hope you will be released from this hell asap. And like I said, it is sad that Singapore had to force their fellow citizens to do National Service. If it is to repay them back for paying all the school fees, I would rather pay myself if I am a Singaporean. Somemore, I saw from Fish's blog, training to not bathe for 5 days is so gross!!! OMG. With all the sweats and the body odour, GROSS!! Hang on YS and Good Luck. =3=

Simply take a look at this egg-shaped car. Damn cute.
The cool thing about this car is that

Pivo 2 three-seater electric car has wheels that can turn 90 degrees for easy parallel parking.

Also,

the new Pivo has a cabin able to revolve 360 degrees, eliminating the need to reverse

Totally so cool =P.
Take another look at how the door opens.

Japanese people are so freakin' creative. Pivo 2 will be exhibited at the Tokyo Motor Show near the capital from October 27.

Today, I've met a very irritating action performed by an asian in a bus. He was chewing chewing gum throughout the whole journey. And you guys know the repetitive "chewing gum" sounds, it's so fucking irritating. He would just continue chewing throughout the whole bus ride to the campus. I hope government will just quickly ban chewing gum.

Disadvantage for not banning gums:
- TOTALLY DISGUSTING gums will be accumulated in campus tables and chairs. There are just so many unethical people, who will just stick their gross and unwanted gum onto the table or chair.
- Irritating sounds.
- If you're hungry, eating chewing gums will only make you even more hungry -.-

See!! No advantages at all for allowing gums. Ban chewing gum ffs.

Last Monday's rain has set an end to this year's hot weather in Wisconsin. Yeah, say goodbye to summer and welcome fall folks! I love cold weather.

Hmm, let's see.
I bought myself a PS3 after I reached Wisconsin. Pretty crazy, huh?! Well, there is a promotion for a 60GB playstation 3. And I am gonna get it anyway. It is just a matter of time when I will be getting it. The first day in Wisconsin, I just simply move out all the boxes out of the storage and found out how dirty the pillow is. I threw it and had been sleeping without booster and pillow up until now.

Life in Grainger Hall for like more than half of the day is not as bad as it sounds. I love staying in grainger. I hate walking to various buildings for my other classes like the last few semesters. The first week of the semester is very hectic. Project for Accounting that is due in one weeks time. Ang moh are crazy peoples. Accounting is my hatest subject. Seriously, as time passes by, I started to develop hate and lost interest for finance and accounting and I AM A FINANCE MAJOR. How sad is that!! ACCOUNTING is sooooo boring. Finance is still way better.

KUDOs to all accountants and accounting major students. There are like so many terms, accounts and ledgers. I totally hate accounting. Life will be like numbers, calculators and papers that are full of boxes for them.

It has been awhile since I read a newspaper. Today, I managed to get myself to read University of Wisconsin's newspaper(I guess) "Badger Herald". Some of the topics are pretty interesting. Especially the upcoming 5 hybrid buses that will be available in Wisconsin. These buses will be monitored using electricity. They are said to save the earth from pollution and also reduce the amount of oil usage. I would love to sit on those buses. I also played with my cellphone and took several photos of some buildings in Wisconsin. I will post it next time.

I had lunch over at A8 China. I wondered how can I used to eat there so often. The food there is totally EW,GROSS! Maybe I intake too many delicious food back at Singapore and Indonesia. *LOL* I will never go there for lunch again. Ever.

PlueExodus, I just got your message. Why the hell you get a Xbox360?! So sudden. Well, congrats!! You have managed to own all the gaming system XD. Xbox360, Wii, PS3, Nintendo DS and PSP. Get on your msn, I want to chat with you!! I need some help with some settings for PS3. *Enjoy your last few weeks.*

Brenda, your DS is collecting dust on top of my cabinet. I'm keeping it here so that in case the blue one missing, I still have this one. If you want to play cooking mama, go and play cece's one. Her DS still have so many food not yet played. And remember TAKE GOOD CARE OF MY OC 1,2 AND WII!! Do not let cece lend those OC DVDs to her friend. Those VCDs / DVDs lent to other people hardly come back to my hands-.-.

I basically did nothing today. Had dinner at Suki Sakura International Buffet Restaurant. Taste? Normal. But it's so expensive. SGD $24 per person. I'd rather had another chance to eat Tonkichi.

OMG, I'm leaving to Wisconsin tomorrow evening 5 pm. Argh!!!
I have done some preparations. 5 new comic books "Peace Maker" to read, Brave Story PSP and Mp3 Player to help me spend the whole flight to Wisconsin. I thought I will reach Wisconsin by 2nd of September. Little do I know, I will be reaching Wisconsin on September 3, 2007 at 7:43 am. That's totally like left with 1 more day to the start of Fall Semester. I still want to enjoy my holiday!!! I do not feel like going to school on the 4th of September.

The only thing that I like in United States is the fast internet connection. I might be able to focus on downloading my code geass and some korean dramas.

Some of the dramas that I'm interested:
- Hello! Miss
- Fantasy Couple / Couple of Fantasy.

PlueExodus, you were supposed to burn code geass and Brave Story for me. I always forget to remind you to burn a copy of the whole season of Code Geass and Brave Story.

It has been awhile since I surf D-addicts. Guess what I found at D-addicts. Remember Full House anyone? For all Full House fan, there will be second series of Full House on 2008. I hope Song Hae Gyo and Rain (Bi) will continue to star in this new series. If they are the one acting in it, I will definitely download it for sure.

If you do not believe in what I've said, check this out.
http://wiki.d-addicts.com/Full_House_2

The script and the casting of the main characters will be decided at this latter half of the year and the shooting and broadcasting of the show will happen next year. The director has yet to be decided.
The writer, Jo Jong Hwa has successfully completed the script up until episode 3.
It remains unknown if the leads, Bi and Song Hye Gyo, of season 1 of Full House will return for season 2 of Full House.

PURE YAYNESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Let's recap what I had posted last time regarding what I hoped to finish up before going back to Wisconsin:
- Constantly buying comics and reading all of them before I left.
- Play Wii, Get enough carnival ticket to buy all the souvenir in the Fun Bazaar over at Mario Party 8.
- Complete Legend of Heroes II and Legend of Heroes III for PSP.
- Watch finish O.C. whole season. (Currently @ 3rd season. Still haven buy the original DVD of 4th season).
- Find back my WHITE DS. *Brenda find it please!!*
- Might be interested to finish up either Beauty and the Geek full season or Desperate Housewife full season.

And what I have done?
- Constantly buying comics and reading all of them before I left.
- Play Wii, Get enough carnival ticket to buy all the souvenir in the Fun Bazaar over at Mario Party 8.
- Complete Legend of Heroes II.
- Find back my WHITE DS.
- Halfway through O.C. 3rd season.

Rubbish movie. I love how the story starts but i hate the ending and the progress of the movie. I do not think this movie is worth the money. I would rather spend it on ratatouille again.

I went to celebrate Brian's Birthday over at Oriental Hotel. The hotel had nice interior design!! Simple and Classic. I think I'm sick and bored with chinese food. That is why i think the dinner was average. Happy Birthday Brian!!

Oh yeah!! On my way to the hotel, the taxi driver had a conversation with me. This is by far the first taxi driver that hate singapore or would comment bad things about Singapore. Here goes-

Me: Uncle, Oriental Hotel please. It is the one at the Raffles Place right?
*I forgot the text that my sister had sent it to me. So I made sure it was the correct hotel and the correct location.*
Driver: Yah. It is the one where the National Day Parade was. You know?
Me: Eh.. No?
Driver: You don't know ah? Then that means you're not singaporean ah?
Me: I'm Indonesian.
Driver: OO Indonesian. Then, you stay at Oriental Hotel ah?
Me: No. I'm just going for a dinner birthday party.
Driver: Your friends ah? The food nice or not?
Me: No. It's my cousin's birthday party and I don't know the food nice or not.

When driving towards the Plaza Singapura area, he started talking again.
Driver: Look at Singapore. Singapore is so fucking rubbish ah!!
Me: Why?
Driver: Look at those museums and the stuffs that they put it on display on the right side of the road. So fucking rubbish
Me: eh. mmm -.-

Upon reaching marina there.
Driver: Oh my god. Over here also can kena jam one ah?
Me: ....
Driver: Look at the road. One road split into two. Stupid government will make these kinds of thing. No wonder jam la. Every car is so kiasu want to go first.
Driver: You know what kiasu is?
Me: Yah.

Today has nothing worth to talk about other than Imelda's birthday and the tiring shopping spree. Anyway, Happy Birthday to Imelda. Thanks for the dinner too!! Tiring day I had. Went out from 11 am till like 9 pm.

I was confused on what to use for the emo pictures. I am happy and sad on the same time. Happy as in I got a new handphone and I had officially free from the Management 300 class. As for sad, I'm left with 6 more days to departure. EH WAIT! IT'S 5 MORE DAYS!!!!!!!

Current Song: mink - why don't you

Laziness really gets me over. This particular blog is supposed to be on an outing two days ago. On that day, YS came to our house with a plastic bag filled with fishball, shark fins and sea slugs *ew*. Sea slug is simply gross. No matter it's black or white, it is still sea slug and disgusting as ever. Anyone still thank you for those expensive stuff. You made my mother felt paiseh until now. Everyone liked the fishball, except for me. Well i'm not the ball-food type of person. Therefore, sotong ball, meat ball, fishball are not my favourite. But i gotta say it's the Q-est fishball i've ever eaten.

There were basically nothing to do in my house. Thus, we decided to go to Kinokuniya at Takashimaya. All the good comics were pretty much already collected or updated. There were basically no more new books to collect, other than Bleach and Full Metal Alchemist. I didn't get anything at all on that day. After wasting time in Kinokuniya, we decided to go for our 2nd cake eating session. This time we went to Coffee Club Express.

These are what we eat. I'll start with mine as usual.

The picture above is called Chocolate Opera. It is sweet. However, it still lose to the one that I ate at TCC! The next food that I ate is not a cake. I just have no mood to eat any sweet stuff anymore that day. I ordered Turkey/Turkish Bread Delight. It is some bread that are provided with 3 different dressings. All the dressings are simply gross. But the bread is nice crunchy and soft.

1. Blackforest Cake

2. Macha Tiramisu

Both above are what YS had ordered. #1 is pretty special blackforest cake. Unlike the normal blackforest cake, this one has marshmallow on top. Not so sweet but still lose to the one i ordered in my opinion. #2 is a total disaster. It reminds me of Mont Blanc, the second cake that I ordered in our 1st cake eating session.

Conclusion: TCC Wins CCE. Congratulation to TCC!!

Oh, I also met with Nobel the day before this outing. We went to eat Mos Burger and just had some gaming over at Cineleisure. Played 3 games of dota and we lost 3 of them. Bleh, too long never play causes all these. >"<

You might be thinking why would I put that emo picture there??

Well, I'm left with 9 more days to departure. Can't believe time is passing by real fast. I gotta spend my time in Singapore more wisely. Hiks.

I kinda ate too much (2 package of chicken rice). When will I be able to reduce my weight if I just keep on intake so much food?

We left for the Birthday party at 6 pm and shopped around at Takashimaya. Bought 3 boxes of Royce chocolate. LOL! 2 boxes of the Nutty Bar Chocolate and 1 box of the Chocolate Wafers. Since I've recommended the Nutty Bar Chocolate in the previous post, I'll recommend the Chocolate Wafer.

Chocolate Wafers
Chocolate wafers with sandwiching nutty hazelnut cream into a crunchy wafer, and coated with premium chocolate.

Lastly, I would like to say Happy Birthday to Mariana姊姊 again!!

Before ending the post, I would like to recommend three songs. Below are the pv links I got from youtube. Enjoy!!
1. MinK - together again
2. Aya Kamiki - Misekake no I Love You
3. Aya Kamiki - Pierrot

#1 is a jpop ballad by my favourite ballad singer. mink stands for "Made in Korea". Mink's ballad songs have never failed to impress me. I would collect and add it to my mink's CD collection.

#2 & #3: Aya Kamiki is a new singer that was recommended to me through the chinese MTV. This singer reminds me of Tomiko Van. Pretty and has a powerful voice. Only these two songs really catch my attention.

EDIT--

Look at this video!!　Argh.. it just makes me want to get a yorkshire terrier puppy!! So fuckin' cute!!

Dead Tired

Current Song: Garreth Gates - Anyone of Us

I did not have sufficient amount of sleep today. Thanks to my aunt and my sister for waking up early!! I managed to wake up around 9 am, which is kinda not enough for me since I slept at around 2 am. Had an outing again today with YS and JH. We were supposed to meet at 11 am and yet the weather keeps raining. Totally delayed our plans for today.

Bought our comics over at Kinokuniya and started to decide what we should have for lunch. YS kinda had a picky selection of food. He did not want to eat fried food, oily food and no china products. It basically had just wiped out all our selection of restaurant and fastfood that is available in Takashimaya. The only food that I could think of is Aji Tei at Takashimaya Shopping Centre, which is still does not fit to his requirements for the day. However, we still decided to eat there.

Not that I want to complain about this restaurant, there is no reason that you should eat or even try out the food there. Why?
1. Not delicious, other than the cold tofu with sesame paste.
2. Bad service!!! You need to call them every once in awhile for refills of drinks and you still have to order yourself by writing them on a piece of white note.
3. Cleanliness is also not up to my standard.
The worst thing about this restaurant is you still have to pay for service when their service is so bad!! I totally don't understand how they can so much customers in there. The only thing came up to my mind is either they have not really eaten any restaurants that are better or they simply have bad taste. I gotta complain that throughout today's lunch, I only had like one cup of ice water and one cup of japanese green tea. Where is my refill??!!!

Bought royce chocolate again!! I bought two different products.

Nutty Bar Chocolate

I would have rate it 8/10. It is almond Pecannut Cashewnut Macadamianut Nutty Puff and Praline in Chocolate.

BATON COOKIES - Hazelnuts & Cacaonibs

I would rate this 8.5/10. This is a long, thin cookie coated with rich milk chocolate on one side.

For chocolate lovers, do go and taste Royce chocolate. It is better than Godiva and it is not as costly as Godiva. Godiva is like so fucking expensive and not as tasty as Royce.

We watched Origin today over my house. I simply love Indonesia's pirated DVD releases. <3

Gonzo has never failed to provide the viewers with the good graphics and storyline for every single anime that they produce. I love this anime to bits.

Played wii again the whole day. Changing from Wii Sports to Mario Party 8. I am hoping that I will not get any muscle ache tomorrow. In addition, I have stiff neck!!
LOL. I managed to break my own bowling record from 191 to 201 yay. But still, I am 1 point away from breaking my mom's record of 202.

Plue Exodus came to my house today. We sort of trade food. I gave him a dozen of Krispy Kreme's original flavor while he gave me a couple of cheesecakes. Being bored of playing Wii, we decided to watch Dead Silence. It's been awhile since I got the DVD for the movie and finally got the chance to watch it.

Out of 10, I would gladly give it an 8.5. Nice storyline, good music arrangements and most importantly creepy! This movie is creepier than Chucky for sure. It will definitely be creepier if you watched it over the cinema. I would have give it a 9 if I had known the story deeper and better.

Surprisingly, both of my father and mother love Wii so much. We played Wii sports for the whole day. Golf on the afternoon and Bowling on the night. My mother, who was mocked by my father, eventually played better than him later and also broke my record!! Got tired for playing the whole day.

One of my friend got sued by Odex for downloading Code Geass Hangyaku no Lelouch japanese animation. It is kinda lame that they sue us for downloading this anime when they have not even release the japanese animation itself. How can people like us watch this animation if they don't release it? Are they thinking of releasing it in half a year or a year later? Stupid Odex!! I hope they will be bankrupt. Join the Anti-Odex Club LOL!! Geez, I have no mood to do anything at all now.

After owning this game for like almost a year, I finally complete it. Nice story, normal gameplay and kind of short. The gameplay is the same as the Legend of Heroes I. Yay, now I'm down with Legend of Heroes III and Brave Story. Even my comic also left with Brave Story. Somehow I've neglected the O.C. 3rd Season, I have trouble in dividing the time for the various things I'm left with. Hopefully, Legend of Heroes III will be completed by the end of this month.

Had korean food for dinner. I've always love eating Korean's tofu soup. I miss New Seoul's tofu soup.

PS. I'm addicted to Jay Chou's new song, The Secret that cannot be Told. [Mp3] [MV]

Left for school from home at 7:30 am. Met with Ms. Aida, Mrs. Tay and Ms. Tan. Had a pretty long talk with my old form teacher - Mrs. Tay. We gossipped and basically sort of "bad-mouthing" Maris Stella High School. Well, a used-to-be good renowned school has now become a school that is ranked at the bottom amongs the secondary school in Singapore. The Principal, new Vice Principal and Discipline Master are the cause of all these things. Bro. Anthony, Dennis Koh and Maria Koh just get the hell out of the school before the school closes down. You guys suck!! I'm pretty surprised that several teachers do still remember me.

We left to Takashimaya, got the last few eight books of Brave Story and had Mos Burger as our lunch. We also watched two movies today - Secret and Rush Hour 3.

Secret has basically good music, good storyline and sweet story. Although the concept may not be new, it is still a pretty good movie. I would rate it an 8/10. For those Jay Chou fan, don't miss this show. His acting has improved much from his previous movie, The Curse of the Golden Flower.

Rush Hour 3 is a bad show for me. This show has not failed to provide the audience with the humor that is expected. However, storyline seems to be rushed. Compared to Secret, I would have rather watch Secret again.

Before we watched the two movies, we finally had our first cake-eating session!! We had our cake-eating session over at the coffee conisseur. Nice place for afternoon snack.

Next, I will show our cakes~ Plue Exodus and I got two cakes each. I got 1. a chocolate-y cake (forgot the name) and 2. Mont Blanc.
1.

2.

#1 Good, a little bit too sweet. #2 Bad, simply too creamy.

The two cakes that Plue Exodus got was:
1. Ole Ole Oh

2. Mango Mousse

#1 Very Nice, the amount of sweet and bitter is just nice. #2 Bad, totally bad for me. ( I hate mango pudding ). TCC is a recommendable place to snack. The price is abit too pricey though. SG$4.50 for each piece of cake. SG$9 for two pieces of cakes, which is almost two comic books.

I felt abit moody after I reached home. Maybe insufficient amount of sleep caused my mood swing. Was and is still feeling damn angry and agitated easily. Anyway, Happy Birthday Singapore!!

Left for Funan IT Mall early at 11:50 am from home to get my piece of Brave Story: New Traveler. Another PSP RPG Game to my collection without completing the Legend of Heroes II, III and Breath of Fire III. Who cares LOL.

Upon reaching GameScore, I was tempted to buy Tales of the World: Radiant Mythology and pretty much still now. Luckily, I managed to curb my temptation. I will get a copy of it though. Simply couldn't forget and resist how fun Tales of Eternia was. I can't imagine how worse than Tales of Eternia it can be.. unless they have lousy storyline, which I pretty much doubt about.

Had lunch at Delifrance and ate egg sandwich. Plue Exodus and I went to Takashimaya for our gift hunting for teachers back from Secondary School. I bought 2 Royce Chocolates - 1 for me and 1 for Miss Tan, the one I met on my previous 3 posts.

I love chocolates so much!! Gotta say it's delicious. We had trouble over what to give my old form teacher, but Tea was afterall the only selection we had. It is not cheap ok?? 1 small packet for $20 dollars. Well it's better than giving fruits. I also bought Merci Chocolate from NTUC. It has become a property of 2 of my teachers and I leave it to god who I shall give this chocolate to. I felt pretty relieved after buying all the gifts. I only have to be present on time on the 8th of August to give these gifts away.

Should i get another Nintendo DS for myself?

Happy B'dae

LOL.. Thanks to the reminder by Friendster that I'm able to remember the exact date of your birthday!! This is probably the only useful features of Friendster for me. SORRY Steph & Happy Birthday!! You know that I'm bad at remembering some stuff such as people's name and birthdates. :( Anyway wish you all the best. Hopefully you have a great and fun birthday party. Probably clubbing huh?? since you club pretty often after I left Seattle =P

Sorry for not being able to be there, congratulate you and give you any presents. But yeah, happy birthday!! Enjoy your year.

Yeah.. I'm down with one more last class, Management 300 - Organizational Behavior. The past few months, the other two classes are pretty busy class. Basically, tons of readings to do by the Indian class and tons of homework, which are daily, by the logic class. I always did it at the last minute though. However, with the end of these two boring and crazy classes, I can allocate more time for my own activities. I can enjoy and relax myself.

Today's outing is simply stupid. Forced to wake up at 10 am to lock the house. Tried the burberry white clothes meant for tomorrow's wedding party and I hate it. I don't want to look like I'm working. White-long-sleeve. First thing comes in mind is definitely working-class. Simply ew. I'd rather get the CK long-sleeve clothes. Had Crystal Jade again for lunch!! This is my third time eating Crystal Jade in a week. Gross!! Ok? Too bad all the guests are oldies. What can I do other than sacrificing my poor little tummy? Even though they are all of different branches, they are still Crystal Jade(s).

After the lunch, I went to Royce to grab the chocolate that Plue Exodus had recommended yesterday. Unfortunately, it is out-of-stock!! Damn it. So unlucky. I bought another different one though. My cousin recommended the Royce chocolate "Champagne" flavor. It does melts but the taste is so-so. :)

There are just so many things that I wish I would be able to do before I leave for Wisconsin on Sept 2nd:
- Constantly buying comics and reading all of them before I left.
- Play Wii, Get enough carnival ticket to buy all the souvenir in the Fun Bazaar over at Mario Party 8.
- Complete Legend of Heroes II and Legend of Heroes III for PSP.
- Watch finish O.C. whole season. (Currently @ 3rd season. Still haven buy the original DVD of 4th season).
- Find back my WHITE DS. *Brenda find it please!!*
- Might be interested to finish up either Beauty and the Geek full season or Desperate Housewife full season.

I'm sad that I lack the ability to multitask :(. Everything just have to be done one at a time.

Damn.. Tomorrow will be a boring day, given that I have to wake up early to go to church. I simply don't look forward to tomorrow. Instead, I look forward to Singapore's National Day!! Can't wait to see the look of the Marists and my form teacher. Argh, I'm still having some trouble over what to give to my form teacher back over at Secondary 4.

Fresh fruits or Tea would be suitable for a chinese old teacher?
PS. Don't assume the tea is the cheap kind. One bottle may cost $20++ with tax. I hate tax!!

What a day!!

I had a pretty surprising outing today. Remember about me saying how "lame" is the Black Sheep movie? Well, I watched it today. LOL. Seriously, this movie is so "Slither-y". For those who have watched Slither, Black Sheep has almost the same concept. Don't ever watch the movie unless you have too much money to spend on or you just have no more movies to watch just like what happened to me.

So what happen?? Why would I watch Black Sheep?
One answer: Wanted to watch Jay Chou's Secret but it hasn't start to show in any theatre. Guess this is the result of you for not reading any newspaper before you leave the house.

Ha. Plue Exodus and I went to takashimaya today and surprisingly met with Miss Tan. A teacher back from Maris Stella. She were going to Godiva Chocolate booth. All their packages are so expensive. 9 pieces for like SG$25? Worth it?? NO!! I'd rather spend it on comics. Had a nice chat with Miss Tan and we're sort of convinced to go back to Maris Stella on the 8th of August, which is the National Day. Hopefully, we can wake up by then. I also met with 2 Singapore actors. Hell know who their names are.

Hot!!

I'm feeling like I'm in the middle of a desert. It's as if the whole body is gonna be soaked with sweat anytime. A room with an aircon that has been switched on since the past 5 hours and the aircon doesn't get anywhere colder. How I wish the aircon can just get colder anytime soon!! Argh, I miss Wisconsin's cold weather!!

Had lunch at Crystal Jade over at Paragon. 7 of us and we ordered like 12-15 plates for dim sum. I just love fried dim sums. Crispy and tasty. Yum!! Some of my cousins and friends are like saying that the best dim sum that they have tried will be somewhere over at United States, which is kinda weird given the fact it is America!! Singapore/Indonesia should have better dim sum than America. Asian food should taste better in Asia.

Played Wii with my sister after we reached home. Broke the record for swing kings at Mario Party 8 XD. 20/20 Mwahahah!! We also played Wii Sports. Bowling, Tennis, Baseball & Golf. Finished up the O.C. 2nd Season..

P.S. Hey Steph, I really got all the original DVDs for the O.C. !! I'm just simply addicted to O.C.

Pooling for the most hated character in the O.C. series:
I used to say that Melinda Clarke, Julie Cooper topped this pool. However, after seeing the 2nd season, I gotta say Alan Dale as Caleb Nichol got the 1st prize. Totally detest his personality. I hoped that he can be removed after this season and yeah, he is removed!!

Time to move on to the 3rd season. I miss Summer's character in 1st season!! Gotta agree with you steph, 1st season is the best!!

Movie Marathon (may contain spoiler)

2007-07-30T12:24:00.000-05:00

Current Mood: Tired
Current song: Chris Daughtry - Over You

Today or yesterday, to be more specific, (considering it is 1:28 am now) was officially the first time that I had a movie marathon.

The first movie that I watched was "The Simpson Movie".

Many people has given a good rating for this particular movie. 8.7/10 over at IMDB!! Out of 10, I would probably have rated it 7 only. I liked the movie overall just because of its humor. Somehow, they have used many famous character into the movie such as "Arnold Schwarzenegger" and "Tom Hanks". I missed out the Simpsons series and would not want to give it a try over it. Did laughed alot in the movie but somehow doesn't feel that it worth the money to watch it. Lucky we watched it at Cathay Cineleisure. Good seating and Big theatre!!

Had lunch at Tonkichi Restaurant and ordered 2 Hire Katsu Toji set, 1 edamame, 1 agedashi tofu and 1 coffee pudding. My friend, his nickname is Plue Exodus btw, and I ate the Hire Katsu Toji, whereas my aunt ate the edamame, agedashi tofu and the coffee pudding. Tonkichi is by far the best japanese restaurant over at Orchard Area. If you're going for set meals, tonkichi has to be your selection. Go to Sushi Tei for sushi and not set meals!! Went to kinokuniya and grabbed 5 books of comics - 4 Brave story and 1 會長是女仆.

The next movie were pretty good. My friend intended to watch the Black Sheep movie.

Before

After

Watched the trailer over at youtube. You can check it out here. LOL a new zealand horror movie - sheep eating human and or human-sheep transforms. How lame can this movie be!! I took this movie out from the selection of the movie that was available in the theatre and both of us decided on...

Captivity.

It is so much better right compared to the Black Sheep movie??!! This movie is gory. Halfway through the movie, a couple left the theatre. Warning!! May contain spoiler after this full stop. They were showing a psycho blending human organs with a blender and having the main actress drank them all. Moreover, a part of the storyline was so out-of-place. M-18 is the rating in Singapore for this movie and it is the first time they don't do any age-check for me. Well yeah, there are sex scenes in the middle of the movie. LOL, it just doesn't make any sense. You are locked up in the enemy's territory and you still have the mood to have sex. Come on!!

We decided to have another try for our last movie for the day. Invisible Target.

A chinese action-packed movie starring Nicholas Tse, Shawn Yue and Jackie Chan's son, Jaycee Chan.

It's been awhile since i catch a chinese show. Great storyline, Large-scale Action!! Chinese show is still the best for action. Afterall, it's filled with thousands of scenes with "glasses breaking" and "tossing and flying". Typical chinese movie huh?!?!

Gotta say, Invisible target is by far the best show I've watched today or yesterday to be specific. Lol, it took me like 1 hour to write this post. wow!!
