倒數 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.......

In a moment, we will be welcoming 2010! But I am not going to squeeze in Orchard Road to 倒數。I will be going to a friend house to do my countdown and have some wine. Ha! Sounds like 妙手人心﹗

Ninja Gaiden II 再現風雲

Ninja Gaiden is one of the best Xbox games I have played in recent years. So when Ninja Gaiden II is out, 我自然不會放過。Just that game are too expensive and I always 下不了手。I happened to pass by a shop and I am lucky or what. It is selling for $39! Of cos, I quickly bought it and now I am the proud owner. But again, I will be frustrated cos this game is the same as the first: very hard to play! Ha!

十月圍城 Not too bad

十月圍城 talks about a group of people with different motives come together to protect 孫中山 from being assassinate. The story plot is rather interesting and got some 大牌客串 in this show. The first part of the show mainly built up the characters and story. So it is a bit slow. The movie only picks up when the protection starts. Overall, this movie is a breath of fresh air from all the 古裝 war show.

Avatar 特效刺激你的感官

Avatar is a science fiction movie that combines animation and human actor. It talks about human race is trying to invade an alien planet due to its rich resources. Sam Worthington is recruited to complete the invading mission through avatar. However, he falls for the alien princess and help them against human invasion. The story is simple and 沒新鮮感。But the special effects and animation are great. I dun dare to catch the 3D version as I have motion sickness. So if you are not like me, I strongly recommend to watch it in 3D. I think it should be 全新體驗。The avatar for Sigourney Weaver looks just like her. I think this 角色是為她量身訂做﹗

無敵海景 at Star Cruise （四）

The next stop is Phuket. This time round the ship is parked at a distance away and we need to take a small boat out to the shore. Same as in 賓城, all the taxi drivers 蜂擁而來 once they see us. So we bargain a bit and finally got into a pickup type taxi. The taxi driver brought us to buy 蜜糖 and 土產 as this is how he earns commission.We did buy a few things. Then, we proceed to the shopping mall at Patong beach - Jungceylon. We had our lunch and have great dessert there. After a quick round of shopping, we took the small boat back to our ship.

無敵海景 at Star Cruise （三）

The cruise first stop is at Penang. We alighted at the port and just walked out. All the taxi drivers 蜂擁而來﹗Very competitive. We have 9 people. So we need a car that we can squeeze in at one go. So finally we got into a taxi that can sit 7. Yes, we squeezed everyone in. Ha! We went to Gurney Plaza and the first thing that came to my mind is must visit A&W! This restaurant is history in Singapore but is alive and kicking in Malaysia. So I always go for Root Beer float there. After a quick shopping, we were on our way back to the ship. But going back, we split into two cabs as we could not find a big one.

無敵海景 at Star Cruise (二)

Taking cruise is some sort of 增肥團 ﹗You can get to eat day in day out for free!!

1. At 7am to 8am, coffee and light snack on highest deck. 邊吃邊看日出。

2. As 9am to 10am, morning tea break.

3. At 11am to 1pm, lunch.

4. At 3pm to 4pm, afternoon tea break.

5. 5pm to 7pm, dinner.

6. 12am to 1am, supper.

There are also many eateries place that costs money. So if you are hungry at 4am, you still can get food but you need to pay.

我愛 HTC

I wanted to get a new handset as my current handset is a bit crazy. Actually I wanted very much to get an iPhone. But luckily HTC HD2 is launched in time and made me “懸崖勒馬”﹗It has a very good launched price and I immediately went to Starhub roadshow to get it. I love it!

Light switch sticker 好玩

I bought an interesting thing to beautify my home light switch. It is a sticker that is about the same size as the light switch. Just a bit of DIY and viola, it is done. A little thing to 美化 the house a little. Haha..

Swissotel 盡享無敵景色

I have booked a room in Swissotel The Stamford as there is a promotion going on. This is the 2nd time in my life that I have stayed in a local hotel. The view is simply fantastic! You get to see the beautiful scene of Marina Bay. The 賭場 looks 70% done and the view will be even more fantastic once it is ready. But I guess the price of the room will 水漲船高 at that time!

自行遊 at JB City Square

I have never taken a public transport to City Square to 新山 before as I always heard of 恐怖 stories like robberies, thieves etc.. But with the new CIQ in JB, I am more willing to travel to City Square as it is just opposite the new CIQ. Very easy to access and best of all, now it is much safer as there is a bridge that links CIQ to City Square. So 匪徒應該不敢在太歲頭上動土吧﹗Generally, there are many eateries and the price is cheaper. But the apparels are comparable and not cheap if there are no sales. Now I will frequent City Square for the food and movies.

早來的 Christmas present: LG Digital Frame

I have gotten my first 聖誕節 present. It is by Best Denki. I signed up their credit card lately and got a free LG digital frame model F7010S. I always wanted to get one but feel it is a waste of money. One of this gadget easily cost $100. But now I got it for free! Great!

衝動購物(二) : Samsung Blu-ray Player

I am thinking of getting a Blu-ray player as I have a Blu-ray disc. 哈哈哈﹗But I have been putting it off as I feel I have no time to watch. I am looking at LG as it has many good reviews and 衝動 wanted to buy. However, it is at $399 so I held back. I walking around last day at Sitex and saw a booth selling Samsung Blu-ray player BD-P1600 at $259. It got good reviews also and all the features 我要都有。Then, the sales guy told me he can sell me at $250!! 簡直難以置信﹗So in the end, you guessed it. I bought it.

The Twilight Saga: New Moon 沉悶無聊

I have never watched the Twilight first episode and never read the book. I only know there are vampires and werewolves. Naturally, I thought it is a exciting monsters movie. But who knows The Twilight Saga: New Moon actually is a chick flick. The whole movie is moving extremely slowly. It is basically the lead actress 談情說愛 with little action. Half time the show, I started to 抓狂﹗So if you are not into romance, stay away from this show. Strictly for fans only.

衝動購物(一) : Aigo Portable Media Player

I finally bought a portable media player after putting it off for about 1 year. I have been telling myself to 冷靜 and dun be 衝動。But finally I saw a product with a right price and so I finally bought it. It is Aigo MP5910A portable player.

Latest 愛好: 做手機電影

I always wanted to turn my mobile phone into a device that allows me to watch movie. Only until lately, I learnt how to get the right encoding, format, resolution etc.. for my Nokia E90. It is now a breeze to load movies into my mobile. Now my phone is truly a multimedia 智慧手機﹗哈哈哈﹗

Online application 不如當場 application

I wanted to apply a free account for me to access the internet in campus. So I apply online which I tot will be faster. Who knows there is a security 保護 and said they will mail me the security code to append to my password so I can use my account. After waiting for almost 2 weeks, I received nothing. So I gave up and go to the service center to change my password. Instantly, I can access. So sometimes you need to go down personally to get things done. Online might not be the fastest way.
