200 Pounds Beauty

Just came back from watching "200 Pounds Beauty" with Debbie. Nice!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Laughing and laughing and laughing............think I will get this on DVD :o)

Kim Ah Joong is only 22! Looks so much like Vivian Hsu...

Mariah Carey

She made me love live music.

Total Eclipse Of The Heart

Blast this song and you are instantly transported off somewhere into the music........

There are times when song lyrics say it all....you just keep quiet and absorb yourself into the song.

Once upon a time I was falling in love

But now I'm only falling apart

There's nothing I can do

A total eclipse of the heart

Once upon a time there was light in my life

But now there's only love in the dark

Nothing I can say

A total eclipse of the heart

Three notes is enough for me to recognise the song.

One of the boybands I listen to. At least my favourite singer among them got to sing most of the song.

Newton Circus

Finally gone back to Newton Circus since it has shifted back some time back. It is so much better than before. Cleaner, fresher, and actually a place that I don't mind going to chit chat with friends while you have an option of whacking some sting rays, chicken wings, gong gong, zhut zhut, cockles, juice, blah blah blah....the list goes on.....

Well, thanks to Yiling that I went back there tonight. May pop by again some time.......

Then I tried Rachel's Suzuki....hehehe....white still seems too "clean"...

Unbelievable Evening

Stayed home most of yesterday and today. Decided to go and cut hair in the evening, as I really think the thick mess is unbearably hot. Shaved off the sides as usual and I think it is going to be way more cooling for badminton tomorrow! Alpha is joining me for the first time. Hope he does not give up going after considering to travel from Ang Mo Kio to Changi.

Met Alpha for dinner at about 8pm at Bishan. We had kuay chap! Probably sinful to a lot of people, but well.....we were quite full after and took a walk into Bishan. Told him that I wanted to check out the arcade to see what they have now, since I last played arcade on Saturday. Man! When was the last time I stepped into Bishan?!! I didn't even know that it has shifted to take over the space formally occupied by the foodcourt! I should really hibernate lesser at home...

Then Alpha suggested something that I have not done for more than 10 years. Slot basketballs into the loop for the most points. We each played three times!!! Everyone was wondering why we were perspiring in an air-conditioned shopping centre.......

Decided to catch a movie. So got the tickets for Shooter (after I had to explain the different shows to Alpha before he decided). Well, show was quite nice, with Mark Walberg as the hero. Alpha says he is just a sniper, how can he be that good?! But he was the elite chosen by the nation for important missions!!!! I tried to convince him by getting into the mood of the show.

But..............that is not the best part............the show was rated NC16...which means you have to be above 16 to watch it because of possible sex or nudity or violence or whatever that you might be too young to watch.......

And then........the cinema staff wanted to check our NRIC to see if we can watch the NC16 rated show!!!! Come on!!!!! We are almost twice the restriction age!!!! Surely we DO NOT look below 16!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(Even Bee Gees would think twice to endorse this!)

Arcade Stick

Got the games I want, but some of them are really not practical to play with keyboard. Especially the retro arcade games like Warriors Of Fate, Varth: Operation Thunderstorm and Captain Commando. So, I felt the urge to look for arcade controllers, since gamepads would still not give the same experience.

Chanced upon a series of them and they are compatible with ANY game system including PC. Just need to get the necessary adaptor. It is supposed to be so good, reliable and durable that they offer lifetime guarantee. Price is not very cheap though. Thought I saw it once at Sim Lim, think I will go and check it out sometime this week.

Hmmm, they have solo or dual or tank version. Personally only need solo, but can always get dual to have pair gaming! (I rarely switch on my PS2, but this might be an excuse!)
