Red Alert 3

Makes for a pretty neat MTV. And so many chixorz...


But then you have to contend with DRM. After the Spore DRM fiasco, I wonder how it will finally turn out for EA.

Hmm...

最近我的朋友请我到他的组屋的人的派对。我认为这应该是好机会较新朋友所以答应了。可是我忽略了一点。一件很大的东西:这派对是印尼人举办的。除了我以外,其他人都会讲印尼话。。。 真是有点尴尬。。。 食物非常好吃,可是95%的对话我听不懂。。。 而且主持人不会讲中文,把我的名念成“姐姐”。。。发誓下次我会自我介绍为“JJ"。。。 幸亏有好心人故意用英文跟我聊天。 可是现在就有点矛盾-下次应该不应该再回去呢? 我一生中这是第二次发生这种情形。第一次是韩国人。那更惨。那一餐,我只说了两句话。。。

If it were you, what would you do? Any suggestions?

And on a brighter note, I finally have a break through in Fukai Mori by Do As Infinity! The tab is finally clear to me!! Practice practice practice!!

It's the End of the World...

As we know it.
On the 10th of Sept 2008, at 730GMT (130 CST) the Large Hadron Collider will power up. Although I'm no physicist, I think it will definitely help us understand the make-up of the world better. The LHC will basically accelerate particles around in a huge underground chamber at near absolute zero and at near light speeds. What happens when these particles smash into one another is what everyone one is eagerly (or not) to see.

Will it be able to prove dark matter exists? Are there REALLY strings in physics? Will it be able to let laymen like you and me understand what is a Higgs Boson (I have no clue what that page means)?? I will be dying (figuratively I hope) to find out.

And if the world really ends tomorrow, at least I got to celebrate my birthday first! :P

Edit: I just found out that CERN (the organization behind the LHC has actually a very informative rap on Youtube about the LHC. So without further ado, the LHC rap.

Do Barely-Skillful Guitarists Dream of Broken Necks?

So I had a weird, weird dream last night. I can't remember the setting very well, but it was one of those older Chinese street settings you see on 上海滩 and the like. I don't remember what I was doing or where I was going, but I remember walking down the streets with a guitar strapped across my back, like how the 2 dudes from 功夫 were carrying their 古镇(At least, I think it was a 古镇). Why wasn't the guitar carried vertically? I have no idea. Narrative impetus I guess.

Anyways, I was walking into a side alleyway and for some reason, I turned around. And the guitar smashed against the wall. And snapped, into 2 at about the 5th fret. Which really freaked me out. I spun around at the sound and this time hit the OTHER wall. Which made another snap. Right near the body. I remember feeling shocked about the whole thing and thinking "OMG! What shoddy workmanship!". I was also thinking, "Acoustic-Electric here I come!". Then for some unknown reason, I saw that the strings had broken into 3 sections as well and decided to try finger tapping that 5 fret section. And miraculously, it worked! So I tried my hand at tapping awhile before it dawned on me. Why the hell did the string fracture into 3 different pieces? And then I woke up and double checked my guitar to be sure...

Thanks, and a Video

A little while back, I posted something about Animal Abuse. I know have the full song and the cartoon that follows it. I present "Cows With Guns".


Also, thanks to everyone who wished me Happy Birthday. I had an enjoyable time. Not as good as I would have liked it cos of some technical difficulties, but it was still fantastic nevertheless. Thanks again, you guys rock.
