MBIT Test - Is it real?
Retro Games
Taking forever to load this page to start blogging.
Been nagged at by another friend to update my blog. The next person who does that is so going to be... I put it down after I decide what to do with him/her :p
Retro games, that's the in thing in my life nowadays. Stumbled across this website with all these old games for download. So I went on a rampage to relive those old days when the graphics were clunky and the sound was tacky. Wolf3D, Colonisation, Civilisation, Simcity and even UFO Enemy Unknown. *blissful look* Then I was reminded how addictive they were and hence, my current station in life. *haiz*
On that topic, my friend observed that it is interesting that although the graphics and sound was crap, I still went back to play them. He probably would play them too. He concluded by saying that although graphics and sound are important, the critical thing is the gameplay and game concept. That is where they scored well.
Unfortunately, a lot of these games run on DOS mode. That was before the era of Windows in case you are wondering what DOS is :p So some of them have problems in WinXP. I'm still trying to figure them out, but then again I better not lest I get carried away by them again. :)

Small World
Got nagged at by a friend to update my blog. And I thought that nagging was a mothers-only domain. *bleah*
You've probably heard this before, but I'm telling you again, it's a small world after all. So far, there were only 2 people who were con... oops, I meant enticed into joining my quaint little workplace. Surprise surprise, both of them ran into a friend of mine who knows them. And one of them was spotted with another girl. Alone. *evil laughter* When grilled, he was just evasive over her identity.
Now there's a thought, would you be embarrassed if you were caught with a member of an opposite sex? Alone ;)

40 Days
Today went to Expo for a time of prayer after work. It was the beginning of the annual 40 days of prayer and fasting by the churches under the Love Singapore Network.
Truth be told, I wasn't too keen on going. Expo is just at the other side of the world and at the end of nowhere. Also, been running on fumes for this whole week, tired from all the nonsense that go on in work. But I figured, there's no point hanging around in office longer than required, I have nothing to do in the evening, may as well do something productive and pray for the nations. Wasn't as easy as I thought it could be.
To keep it short, my mind wasn't fully focused while prayer, kept thinking about work and was struggling to stay awake. It didn't help much when I heard 'strategising' during one of the speeches by one of the speakers, it just-so-reminded-me-of-work *urrggh*
Then I saw the clip about East Timor. It struck me that the situation there is somewhat like Singapore 40 years back, worse in some ways. But the point is that it could have been us 40 years ago, but we were blessed and Singapore prospered. Now, this is a chance for the Christian Community to influence the destiny of a new-born nation and it is close to us. Basically that got me dusting off the cobwebs of slumber and started praying for real about the nation.
Like I said, may as well do something productive on a Friday evening like this ;)

Initial D
There are 2 main attractions in Initial D.
1. The Cars
2. Anthony Wong
'What? No Jay Chou!' some of you might say. Well, the fact of life is that Jay Chou isn't exactly everything. If you get my drift. (No pun intended) :p
Cars were slurpy I must say. The Toyota AE86 is quite 'misleading'. Of all the cars in that show, it looks the least like a racing car. You would think that it is a normal street car. But in the movie, it just kicks butt. Of course, credit must go to the FC, Skyline and Evo. After all, you need more than one car to have a race :)
Anthony Wong was just fantastic in Initial D. I liked him in the Infernal Affairs trilogy, but now I admire him for his acting after Initial D. He absolutely makes his character stand out in the show with his killer one-liners, dialogue and antics. If anything, you should just marvel at his style when he talks about the potential outcome of the races. I won't say more here, you will just have to watch the movie for yourself.
Watch the show I say. But leave your brain outside the theatre before you go in. After all, you won't be needing it much. And yes, please go watch with your mates. Babes just have no place in the theatre when you're watching the show :)
