I’ve been playing Maplestory on and off, so sometimes, I will be wacking mobs like crazy and neglecting everything else.
Its quite a fun game, really. Cute characters, albeit 2D, nice colours and all that. Of course, maybe sometimes it is quite irritating when you meet the wrong crowd in the game that will spew profanities at you because you ks them or you got conned 4 million mesos for a lousy work glove or you bump into cheaters using bots and things like that, but in general I am quite positive towards the game (I feel positive towards everything but myself, wtf)
The last time I played Maple was like, a month or two ago, having started 2 years back and still manage to stunt my character to forever being in level 50. So, yeah I digress. And then, and then, they introduce the floating village of Thailand and thus, updates are necessary.
The thing I hate about updates are, most of the time the updates failed to run and force me to download the torrent file and reinstall the whole damn game again.

I started watching the trailer of this movie since months back, and it sort of like impresses me. I was like, come on, has anyone ever made a movie of people before Stone Age? For all we know they could have spoken gibberish and wears no clothes, but here it is a movie that depicts life, survival and most importantly love in 10,000 BC. How cool is that?
Well, after watching the movie I am surprised that, they speak… English. Which is a good thing because otherwise I wouldn’t be able to understand a thing. That aside, since I usually don’t go into theater with a high expectation, so this show gets an OK! from me.
Evolet is pretty given the lack of cosmetic and skincare for the era, and TicTic is kinda heroic. D’leh, well, he just sounds a lot like “delay”, and he could give King Leonidas of 300 a run of his money for his spear throwing skill. At least he killed the enemy on the first attempt. Yay!

I kinda like Ellen Page’s funny, cheerful and pragmatic character as Juno MacGuff in the movie Juno. A nicely done comedy about growing up and the bumps along the way, this movie addresses the sensitive issues of teen pregnancy and the available options or abortion and otherwise.

Faced with an unplanned pregnancy, an offbeat young Juno makes an unusual decision regarding her unborn child.
The movie, albeit is a little slow and the dialogs hard to catch sometimes, is quite an eye opener. Its funny, insightful and seriously, sweet in a special way.
Quote: Juno MacGuff: Yeah, I’m a legend. You know, they call me the cautionary whale.

This is one funny animation about a group of multi billionaire heirs’ encounter with a middle class student who happens to land herself in the school of the rich, spoiled brats after she won a scholarship. This hapless student were wondering around the school and somewhat how stumbled into The Host Club. Accidentally broken a vase that cost a lot, she was “enslaved” by the host club members who doesn’t know she was a girl (she was wearing a short hair and guy’s uniform at the moment)to run errand and work as busboy until her debt is paid off. Apparently having never come across so called “normal people” lifestyle, these brats were amazed with everything their busboy did, from the wonders of instant coffee to the “normal people” supermarket that sells mass productions of everything instead of custom made, one of a kind thing that they are accustomed with.
Inevitably, they somehow fell in love, and all the sort of prince and pauper complex. Go watch it if you haven’t already.
There’s a sale going on, and like all the “normal people” I shop at normal supermarket selling mass produced items. In this case I wanted to go check out FOS outlet because there’s a sale going on. I walked in just to see the own shirt I was wearing was promptly on display. LOL! That God after a few fittings the salesgirl didn’t enquire about me wearing their clothes and walking about, hehe. Unless I tailor made my clothes, its going to happen every now and then.

I can’t believe that I haven’t talk about this new Johny Depp classic yet! I know it is a bit contradictory to put “new” and “classic” in the same line, but that is how it makes me feel. Like Stephen Chow, I’ve already been watching Johny Depp’s movies since Tim Burton’s Edward Scissorhands’ days. I can still recall his roles in Sleepy Hollow, his dubbed voice in the Corpse Bride and his more recent popular movies, the three installments of Pirates of The Caribbean.
For the first time ever, I heard Depp singing in Sweeney Todd, and I must say that he could sing really well. With his coarse, manly voice he sang his anguish, his hatred, his vengeance, and alas his regret in this piece of beautifully composed, albeit bloody work of masterpiece. The rest of the cast sings very well too, but their acting paled in comparison to Depp. His role was nominated for Oscar, but it was a pity that he didn’t win the award.
Sweeney Todd is definitely a more worth watching in the cinema. Heck, I even had the whole soundtrack in my mp3 player. Since its a musical, its like hearing the movie again and again. Couldn’t love Depp more.
