It has been a helluva crazy year.
It seems things are about to regain some semblance of normalcy in my life again. If my memory serves me well, I think I started this year wishing for more excitement and, perhaps, newer experiences. In a way I got what I wished for - this year has been somewhat different on retrospect. But every single year serves to outdo the previous one, don't ( Read more... ) -
Singapore.
We sail tonight for Singapore
We're all as mad as hatters here
I've fallen for a tawny moor
Took off to the land of Nod
Drank with all the Chinamen
Walked the sewers of Paris

I thought, if I do not open the door at once and get out of here, I am lost. But I know I could not open the door, I knew it was too late; soon it was too late to do anything but moan.

Welcome to Middle-Earth.
On Thursday I had my virgin poetry slam experience. Ok, I think I've actually watched one in school before, but the memory is as vague as NTU at 5 in the morning so let's take it that it never existed.
It was an enjoyable experience, there was this old bearded man with a staff that he used to cast enchantment on the audience because I was absolutely ( Read more... ) -
On the topic of music videos...
This is how a music video from the 90s look like.
Another.
And for comparison's sake, a video of SMAP in 2000.

While I try to procrastinate on my work.
Tiger & Bunny ended its run last Saturday.

It is one of the most amazing anime I've watched in a while. It's the same with people, if the anime doesn't interest me, I probably won't watch the second episode let alone the whole season, let alone anticipate every day of the week when the subs would be out.
Tiger & Bunny isn't just an ordinary ( Read more... )
