Month: February 2005

Of late, we have been shopping for a family car and the short listed ones were the Honda Jazz, the Renault Scénic, Toyota Picnic, Opel Meriva and at the end we settled for the Mitsubishi Colt Plus.

The Mitsubishi Colt Plus is quite a cool car, it has so many features that i think you better see their website.

This is not the first time to the showroom and it was the last stop, cuz we have already went to all the other Showrooms and test drove the neccessary models.

We had alot of drinks, dunno why…

We should be able to get the car in mid March… What a big purchase… my goodness…

The brownie at Grapevine is killer! When served, the brownie is hot and soft and melts in your mouth while the ice cream is cold and the juxtaposition is a killer combination.

But the problem of such a combination is that the ice cream would have mealted and bcome soggy when you are half way thru the brownie. So we have came out with a solution. If there are 4 persons having the brownie, we will then order 1 in every 10mins! So we will always have it the way its suppose to be!

Now for the first one. ATTACK!!!

We (Jon, Anne, Pearl and myslef) only had 2 tonight, but i think we will be visiting Grapevine quite often. If you do see us there, do say hi.

A fantastic Massive Multiplayer Online Browser Game that i’ve been looking for since i’ve played door games on BBS in the mid 1990s. I still remember LORD which was the most popular game then. You can see an interview with Seth Able Robinson who made LORD and is now operating Robinson Technologies.

Now with the internet, there are countless online games, but i’ve yet to find one that can match Pardus.

Pardus is a free Massive Multiplayer Online Browser Game (MMOBG) playing in a future where traders, pirates and other pilots of various races and factions strive to gain wealth and fame in space.

The beauty of it is that you can only spend at most around 15 – 20 mins a day on it! So that has became my entertainment time that keeps me sane from all my busy schedules. If you are into such games, you’ve gotta try it. If you are already in it, do drop me a msg and let me know your username and also the sector that you are in. I’m residing in the Tiacken Sector and thats my Medical Laboratory and Brewery you see in the pic beside the planet Tiacken I.

For the first time in my life i was bold enough to go down to Chinatown on the night or should i say early morning of the first day of Chinese New Year. It was crowded, real packed.

All the hawkers were peddling their wares and people were all busy checking out the mountains upon mountain of chinese new year goods. There were munchies, decorations, clothes, drinks, food, party stuff… too many.

And as it grew deeper into the night, the prices were all falling drastically mainly because thats the last happening night in Chinatown. Everyone will closed for the next few days, so its quite interesting to see many things falling down to just a dollar when the lights went off and the dismantling start showing up.

Love seeing the stuff behind the scenes and managed to catch a glimps of how our country cleans up itself after a big event. The garbage trucks all lined up as if they were going to race. Very cool. They maybe challenging to see who collects the most garbage. hee… respects.

We had a party for Johanna today which was organised by Olyna. Only after counting the years, i then realise she has been in Australia for like 7 – 8 years already. Wow thats a long time to be away.

It was a pot luck, so there were alot of food. From Pasta to Chips, Shepherds pie to Pearl’s cheescake. It was alot of fun. Well its sad to have friends going away, but we wish Johanna blessings and best wishes where ever she may be.
