Recap

Just a rambling entry about some notable events of the past few days. Mostly not worth reading unless you are very very bored.

Friday night. Went shopping for christmas presents. Met the oneiros static team, selvia and jackson, and omg Jiahua whom I have not seen in like 8 years. Turns out she just left AIA as she is going UK to study. Reminded again about how out of contact I am with my RJ friends. dammit.

Saturday lunch. Met Yvonne for lunch at Jurong point. Another new boyfriend? Got a nice gift from her for christmas. Thanks! Must remember to get her something for her birthday.

Saturday dinner. Gathering at Za's place with the irenicon people + friends! So much food. Kwara's apple crumble and Clara's roast chicken are the best. My terrible luck with gift exchange strikes again. Still, I believe that the thought behind it was sincere, and I really shouldn't complain so much.

Sunday night. Wedding dinner at the Shangri La. Damn posh. Absolutely no idea how I was related to the couple getting married, as I was dragged along without being given a choice by my mom (as usual). Over 700 people invited. They had a jazz band, a harp player, a flute player, and a singer to provide entertainment at various times. The bride was very tall, taller than the groom, and had a very strong handshake. Both were very good looking.

Monday morning. OMG man u lost to west ham. Too depressed to read the match report.

Been trying out a few new anime recently, especially since Naruto and Bleach continues to disappoint.

One Piece is not bad. But trying to convince people to watch a show whose main character is a boy made out of rubber is rather hard. If you've enjoyed bleach and naruto (before they started sucking) you will almost certainly like One Piece as well.

Black Lagoon. Awesome with a capital A. Psychotic Unstoppable Terminator Maid? Crazy Vampire Assassin Twins? Gun-toting, Violence Loving, Bubblegum Chewing Nun with a mysterious past? Its got them all, and more!

The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya. I am unable to describe this show without spoiling anything. Very interesting storyline and exceptionally well animated.

That's all for now.
