| 6:34pm | 18 | | | | I was studying for my upcoming papers from scratch and didn’t realise that it was already past 12 midnight until the first birthday greeting of the day came in via email.Alright, so I’m 18. This means I wouldn’t have to worry about any purchase restrictions when I make future trips... |
| 2:35am | AFA Day 2: ME-I-N! | | | | Since Day 2 wasn’t much different from Day 1 except for the concert and some other stage events, there wasn’t much of a reason to arrive early today. In fact, there wasn’t much of a reason to come, besides May’n’s Live.Before I begin on the nitty-gritty details of today’s... |
| 6:44pm | AFA08 Day 1: So I Got A Media Pass? | | | | Day 1 of AFA08 had crazy queues, mainly the entrance ticketing booth. And so, I patiently queued up with my sister to get our normal tickets. Speaking of tickets, I was only told by those who had media passes that my name was on the media pass list after I paid for my ticket and entered. I didn’t... | | |
| 6:26pm | Danny Choo’s Workshop | | | | Before I begin on this workshop, I now realise that I need start getting my own name card. Now that that’s been said, let’s move on to the event. Before Danny stole the spotlight and everyone’s attention, the afternoon began with an introduction to Animax’s LaMB. LaMB’s... |
| 1:34pm | And I Thought I Could Embark On A Zombie Massacre Tonight | | | | Upon knowing that the Left 4 Dead infection has arrived at the shores of Singapore a day earlier than the release date, a friend and I immediately rushed down to grab ourselves each a copy of the game. We wanted to embark on our horror adventure as soon as we could. Despite not having pre-ordered the... |
| 4:34pm | Yikes! Zombies! | | | | The demo version of Left 4 Dead has been out since 11th November, but it was only until yesterday when I began playing it. Just 2 stages and I find myself hooked. It’s the game any zombie fan would desire, especially with the drought of zombie first-player shooter games out in the market. I’ve... |
| 7:33pm | Has This Occurred In Real Life? | | | | This is precisely why otakus, geeks, nerds and any other similar categorised males shouldn’t invite any XX-chromosome counterparts into their humble abode. It only spells disaster, bold in caps. Unless, of course, your partner is of the same breed. Anyway, I’m just curious, but does anyone... |
| 7:34am | Cubeecraft: Lagann, Eva 00 And Many More | | | | Paper art has always been a popular, especially for those who are unable to afford overpriced pieces of plastic. I do remember that spme sort of paper art known as Paperchild was popular a few months back. I’m not sure if it still is. Anyway, if you prefer something squarish and towards the 3D... | | |
| 3:04pm | JLPT Mail | | | | My other classmates received their letters much earlier than I did, so I got a little worried about whether I actually made a slight mistake in the address field. Thankfully, I was only acting paranoid, and the mail eventually arrived today. I’ve always thought that the test venues were either... |
| 6:04pm | Adaptations From Another Perspective | | | | I’ve finally caught up with Bloody Monday, at least till the latest tankoubon release. Book 8’s going to be out real soon, in probably a week or 2. I think I should really begin reading the weekly chapter releases in Shonen Magazine after completing book 8. Meanwhile, it’s a good... |
| 5:34pm | Adaptations From Another Angle | | | | I’ve finally caught up with Bloody Monday, at least till the latest tankoubon release. Book 8’s going to be out real soon, in probably a week or 2. I think I should really begin reading the weekly chapter releases in Shonen Magazine after completing book 8. Meanwhile, it’s a good... |
| 1:33pm | Extraordinary Out Of The Ordinary | | | | In case you thought this was going to be some really extraordinary post, I assure you it will not be. In fact, this is my submission for my Photography elective module. My lecturer will actually be visiting this site to grade my work. Wow, for once, I can use this blog for schoolwork! Anyway, for those... | | |
| 6:36pm | Why Watch Raws? | | | | After reading Lupus’ post on watching raws and watching subtitled anime, his listing of reasons prompted me to put on my thinking cap. Why have I been watching raws? There are a couple of reasons as to why I’ve been watching most of my media raw, as compared to watching with the aid of English... |
| 6:06pm | Bloody Monday Episode 4 Was A Bore | | | | As much as I’m in love with the series, I can’t help but frankly admit that episode 4 was the most boring episode as of yet. While the past 3 episodes have been decently on par, if not slightly more interesting than the original manga, this episode was sub-par. To begin, the action only... |
| 4:35pm | Ubuntu Is Speedy | | | | After setting up Ubuntu on my desktop, I decided to tinker around with it. The torrent for Bloody Monday was released while I was at it, so I utilised the default torrent client that came together with the installation. If you can’t see it clearly, it’s Down 8.46MB/s and UP 3.07MB/s The... |
