AFA09


Went to AFA09 this evening for the concert starring Yoshiyuki Fukuyama (Macross 7 - Nekki Basara) and May'n (Macross Frontier - Sheryl Nome).
Sorta a dream come true for me; have been listening to his singing since around my poly days... so over 10+ years now? Guy's a great entertainer too, knows how to get the crowd going. :) It was amazing to hear 'Remember 16' and 'Try Again' in acoustic. :) Ahhh...
Fukuyama was followed by May'n, who started off with the new movie single 'Pink Monsoon'.. followed by some other songs from her new album... but it was only when she switched back to Macross F songs that the crowded went crazy again. :)
And the final encore? BOTH Fukuyama and May'n with Acoustic duet renditions of 'Diamond Crevasse' and 'Dynamite'... Woooootz! Concert to remember! :D

Been too long!


Wow, when was the last time i posted? :p Pic on the left was taken from the 60th floor of Banyan Tree Bangkok. Really nice view from there, plus it's windy! :p Kinda Scary actually!
Let's see, completed COD : MW2 a few days ago, story is interesting, but perhaps not as coherent as MW1, a lot of shocks, but i wonder if they were placed there just for the sake of it?
Well, it's only a month away to Christmas... how time flies. :) Another year come and gone again!
Next week is Sitex.... gotta get more storage man. :p Running low, it's become a quarterly affair now buying storage!

Level 10! Power up!



Had a small gathering for one colleague who was leaving the company. We decided on Sunset Pub and Grill which was located at the old Seletar Army Barracks. The pub itself was located right beside an airfield runway, and offered a great view of the sunset (hence the name).

The star of the place is their special buffalo wings, which are graded from level 1 to level 10 (although they have a level 30 which if you finish half a dozen, they'll give you a cert).

We started out with the level 2, which was kinda zingy, but tolerable. Another colleague said "why not we try level 8?"... ( That's in the pic above).... not a good idea!

First your tongue gets numb... then your lips start burning... then your eyes start tearing up, and you slowly find it difficult to breathe. Tips? The beer helps, but don't pause cos that's when it REALLY starts to hurt.

What do they drink when someone eats a Level 10 wing? We were told by the staff that they'll order milk. ;)

The End is Nigh!

It's been a scary few days, Firstly typhoon Ketsana tearing into Phillipines and Vietnam, then an 8.0 magnitude earthquake 32m under the ocean caused a tsunami which hit Samoa and reached as far as Japan. Then hours later, another earthquake shakes Indonesia, and the tremors i believe were felt here in Sillypore...

Perhaps there's a pattern to all this, are we really causing our own doom by abusing the environment, or is this all supposed to happen regardless? Well, i for one don't remember the August/September period being so warm and humid before. Heck, i wonder how well prepared we are if a tsunami hits us, just a small one will be disasterous.
