The International what?

My weekly dosage of movies this week. Too much hype but fizzled at the very end... Didn't offer much action as I have expected (I am an action movie fan..) and Clive Owen + Naomi Watts didn't really live up to my expectation as artistes.. My verdict: Do not catch this unless you are looking for something to while your time away or you really want to watch Naomi or Clive (in that order)

After the show, we went for supper at Macdonalds at Northpoint and something interesting happened. A group of juveniles were having some fun outside and 1 of them went to use the washroom. 1 other guy then promptly slotted the mop outside between the handles to lock the twin doors, trapping his friend and everybody else in it. Fortunately nobody else was going out or coming into Mac. The guy finally relented and let his friend out.

What we didn't count on happening was that once his friend was out, he put the mop back in between the doors. Nobody really noticed until Law and I looked at the only exit later. Seemed like the staff didn't realise it until I told them about it. In the end, they forced the door open and got a bent mop in return. To those inconsiderate idiots, if you think that you were trying to impress the girls in your group or you were trying to be funny, you did not. And what you did was downright childish...

Quiet Sunday for me as well.. Pretty much stayed at home to relax cos my week before was long and tiring. Typically stayed back late in office to finish up work everyday, leaving me feeling burnt out. Just played my PS3 and played cards with my sis and my bro-in-law and dinner with parents and all.

Short note here, congrats to Lawrence on being a uncle to his nephew just born on Saturday! =)

Really lazy...

Hi all, it's been ages since I last blogged about something. You know the type of feeling / mood you get into when you just don't feel like doing anything and you just want to laze around.

Well that mood's been on and off in me these days. Been troubled by some stuff happening lately, so diverting my energy to sort them out. Well here's some updates so far...

• Flew and came back from Japan a couple of weeks ago and STILL sorting through the photos. Promise to put them up on Webshots or Flickr when I finally get my a** down to do it. Great trip with 2 of my bros with me as the tour guide / translator / entertainer, etc.. And my D60 did produce some great shots compared to my previous Japan trips (at the cost of lugging the camera bag and tripod ard with me most of the time)
  
  
• Bought Dynasty Warriors 6 for PS3 and it's a great game. Very different from what I've played for the other DW series. Visuals are great (It's on PS3, you know...) and the gameplay is more difficult than ever. You can get sneezed to death by peons if you're not careful...
  
  
• Watched a couple of movies recently, namely Knowing and The Sniper. Both shows dun live up to the hype. The ending for Knowing is seriously disappointing and the story in the Sniper doesn't really make any sense...
  
  
• Been hooked on Left 4 Dead recently, be it playing at home or at the LAN shops. The thing that separates it from the other First Person Shooter (FPS) games is that you are forced to work together to win the game unlike other games where you can effectively win the game alone if you're REALLY good. Interesting fact, girls are also playing this FPS although you can hear screams in the shop when their characters get swamped by the zombies in the game. Hah!
  
  
• Have not been touching WOW for some time although I've been paying the subscription. Tried to log on this morning and I have to download and install a 740MB patch (currently at 24%). Seriously having doubts to carry on playing this game cos the amount of facts and info to play this game is massive and I simply dun have the time and energy to devote to this game.

That's all for now. It's almost 1 and I gotta grab my lunch soon before I starve to death. Peace ppl!

Thinking of someone in Phuket right now,
