I want to write something that I could not.
Bla bla bla... yadda yadda yadda... bla bla bla... sigh.
Anyway,
Must be all the late nights, for the past 2 days, I haven't been sleeping till its time to eat sahur. If what Cao Boi (survivor 13) said is true, then the headache that I'm having now is from 'bad wind'. I need someone who knows that technique to cure it for me! Anyone..?
I must stop complaining about not studying. Well because its up to me right? I choose not to study and play around. Argh.
The bazaar looks so ... empty. Where's the spirit people ??!!

Just realized something,
That the 4 characters you see featured on the banner are not the same. It really wasn't on purpose, I chose it based on the expression of their eyes and how cool it looks and different. Meaning... the first is an android, then the sister that posseses her brother's body to fight, followed by a vampyre (chiropteran) and finally, something that we're normal to, a human!

One more!
Keep Tryin', colourful, cheerful, funny song. Cool and fun video clip too (I like the cardboard theme & her playing so many roles). Going to write more on my multiply site later on (w lyrics) about her new album.

Must watch, at least give it a try.
I must put this... let's just say, I was already into the song but got totally mesmerized watching the video clip. Utada Hikaru have some of the wackiest, coolest, awesome vid clips (I highly recommend Sakura Drops, visually colourful and stunning).
This is Passion from the latest album, Ultra Blue. Its also the theme song for Kingdom Hearts 2 (PS2 game). Theres an english version, Sanctuary after this. (look out for Donald and Goofy in it - yes they're a part of the game). You either hate or love this song. I love it, its more ambience, surreal atmosphere like.
Some of her songs are unique. Listening to her new album, it makes me feel happy, cheerful, sad, melancholic... and feels like flying. Passion, makes me want to fly, soaring up in the sky, doing things that I'm not able to. That's how much music can move me, I don't need to understand to fully grasp it. :) That's music.
Don't get put off by the beginning animation (:p). I love the dress, the cool extras and the wild horses (though that kinda threw me off a bit). Sorry, its a bit out of sync though. I'm thinking that its representing air, sea and land?
This is the english version created for KH2. I was about to dismiss it as just another animated clip. But boy was I wrong. Watch it tells the story.. I like when how the female characters' lip movements seems so mysterious.

Yesterday, oh yesterday.
I just finished my night shift, on saturday morning. I've no idea why, but I didn't have any mood to sleep on the bus. I ate chupa chups instead. I planned to go to Bencoolen Street to buy anime figurines (see previous post) but I called the shop the day before and found out that it hasn't arrived. So I was kinda sad because my plans were axed but hell, I should be going somewhere !!! Carrefourre came to mind, with the intention of buying bread. I would like to try how long I can sustain (fasting) if I choose to go that way for work. So I dropped at Bugis Street, walked over to Suntec City, remembered something about seeing figurine shops there... Went to buy Mochacino at Mcafe then head up to the 4th level and went into the 'kids territory' and found some anime/toy shops that ain't open yet.
So I went to the arcade, blew $3 on World Combat (till the snow stage), $1 on the plush toy catcher. It was kinda fun playing alone but you don't get any assistance. sigh. Then went over to Carrefourre, bought some things, played its xbox 360 demo, then went up to level 4 again. Bought some things, but the other shop still ain't open yet and its already noon! omg. So I decided to go to arcade and played House of the Dead 4 and Marvel Vs Capcom. Came back, went over to the shop, didn't find anything I like. By then, I was really hungry. The last time I ate was abt 4am, half of my Nasi Ayam Penyet. Walked over to Shaw House (?), ate Chicken (potato) Lasagne at Qiji, not bad.. thats around 1+pm.
It was getting dark, I was like, please don't rain because I've decided to go to Bencoolen Street anyway. Because I WANT TO GET SOMETHING THAT I REALLY WANT. Hell, shopping can be thereupathic afterall, lol. And it didnt rain, thank you God. :) Walked back past Bugis over to Bencoolen Street... walked around, bought my figurine, by then it was already 2+pm. Decided to get a cab home, legs were kinda tired (didn't have enough sleep for the first night shift). And bloody hell, I got into a jam and I got a sucky driver. I mean he can be nice lah, but english not so good so couldn't really understand what he was saying. Then when he want to go into a lane and was block by another taxi, he starts cursing and swearing and doing gestures to the other driver. I was like.. God.. I hate hearing these stuffs. But all I could do was just say ah yeah.. a bit agreeing to him. Lazy. And because of the freaking jam, it cost me $11.90. Theres another jam at my place too. I mean it only cost me $8.90 WITH midnight charge from Plaza Singapura to my place, where as this is nearer but but.. arghhhhh. I should have just walk over to a bus stop uh.
Hmmm I guess I really like to take long walks.. theres one time when I did Dhoby Ghout MRT > Bencoolen St. > (bus to Serangoon) > Bugis > (mrt to City Hall) > Peninsula Plaza > The Cathay > Hereen > taxi home.

Bakuretsu Tenshi a.k.a Burst Angel
I like the style of animation, as well as the flow and the music. Cool drawings but I wish the outfits were a bit more ... erm appropiate. lol. It seems like there isn't enough material in the future.
Anyway, I wouldn't say the anime is my favourite but it is rather interesting and caught my attention so much that I decided to get the figurines. (again style and concept, and who could resist that big gun :p) On the left is Meg, followed by Jo (both named after Little Women characters). I just bought Meg (weee, I am so so very happy) and is still waiting for the arrival of Jo. Apparently the first batch was sold out immediately and the subsequent production has been delayed. It cost me $72 btw. Oh yes, it is expensive. Man, I wonder why these figurines are that expensive anyway. Hmm I chose the production from this company because I like the colour painted, the shadowing and highlighting is also good. But I must say, Jo is more awesome and cool looking, with that jacket of hers. No wonder its sold out. *sigh* Anyway, I might be pre-ordering Mai Otome's Shizuru and Natsuki too but not confirm yet. Just because its $87 each. *ouch* It'll arrive in October... ah temptation. If I do get it, that means less spending... but its Hari Raya. I so can't foresee controlled spendings lol (and don't forget the green packets grr).
And did I mention that I almost broke something thats a part of Meg's gun? *oops*
Now, I hope they'll come out with a Saya figurine (from Blood+) featuring her new look and that cool samurai sword. I'll definitely get that.

Review up
I like multiply.com, I really do. But I also like blogger. And besides people don't really know who I am unless they know this blog to know who is exactly behind my multiply. Erm ... get it? ANYWAY...
When December comes, thats when I decide to burn a hole in my pocket. Stuffs thy intend to get,
Creative 2GB Zen V Plus (Black-Green) $239 - now. (i know, i know, their quality isnt good and ive got first hand experience on that. i just hope it will last me for at least 2 yrs. i like the design and esp. the functions. i hope the price will drop by then as well.)
Adidas Jacket w Hood $119 - now. (Orange with dark brown stripes on the sleeves. I wish it was the other way around but at least the orange isn't too bright. And I was hoping the material could have been different. Honestly, I hope I'll find something similar instead...)
Age of Empires 3 with expansion pack. $unknown. (Die hard fan. Must get. So I thought, why not wait and get the combo.)
I hope the prices will drop when the time comes. If not, I foresee $500 gone. Wow.. erm I HOPE NOT! Because I intend to shop a lot more! Hey, I blame all the grocery shopping I've been doing, instead of the real one!
And did I mention the LG LCD 19" that I'm aiming? Well, actually I want a 22"... I shall wait for that. New graphics card, Anime figurines, a pair of Levi's Jeans, KL holiday (maybe?), some tops, a pair of shoes... gosh. Well, actually they're not exactly on my priority list but I do want Bakuretsu Tenshi's Jo and Meg's figurine and Mai Hime/Otome's Shizuru and Natsuki.
