Taiwanese drama craze
9:00 PM
After exam there is really nothing muh for me to do... So that's why I started watching Taiwanese drama.
Well I couldn't stand taiwanese dramas last time because they are just like fairy tales. For example, the girl always finds herself to be the grand daughter of the richest man in Taiwan and all the crap, then there will be a 'happily ever after' ending.
That was how I felt a few years back but of course all this has changed now(hence the title). Recently I have been spending hours(sometimes 8 hours) a day chionging Taiwanese dramas. The two serial dramas I am watching now are really great. One of them, which I have finished watching, is great because it is really realistic and most importantly, it doesn't have those disgusting happy endings... But the downside of it is that it can be quite boring and less entertaining sometimes.
The second one which I am still watching is the story of my mum's generation. But I doubt non Taiwanese can enjoy this much because they simply won't get why a guy with heavy china accent proposing to a girl with heavy Taiwanese accent(to find out how it sounds like, listen to the dear ex president's speeches) is funny.
Ok I need to concentrate on the drama, shall end here~
Ps I sound naggy when I blog with iPod touch... Should blog with computer next time XD

First post with iPod touch
12:55 AM
Ok I know my blog has been completely abandoned after exam even though I said I would 'revive' it XD So what makes me want to write a new post after so many months? The answer is: my iPod touch~(FYI, I am writing this post with the virtual keyboard on my iPod touch, which I am still not used to typing on)
Still remember I said the next post I am going to post after exam will be my iPod touch? Well I was thinking maybe I should do an unboxing post in my iPod touch after exam, but there were simply too many distractions.(music, movies, games, you know, that sort of loud and red thing)
I think I will start updating my blog again now that I have written my first post after sooooooooo many months~ so look out for new updates!

I pronounce this blog dead from now on and I'll revive it when exams are over. (Which means the first post will likely be on my future ipod touch XD)

Ambush crafted feeling guilty.
5:12 PM
Today's a very special day as for the first time in history, I am going to blog about games. And the game so honoured to be blogged by me today is non others but......
MouseHunt!
Finally, after some frustrating time spent in the pinnacle chamber catching hapless mice for ambush bps, I managed to successfully craft my ambush!
Haha those who play mousehunt and have crafted ambush might be able to understand the joy when you finally crafted this nice brilliant trap after painstakingly collecting the ingridients.(especially those who risked crafting it at gm and was successful)
However, I crafted my ambush with quite a bit of guilt... Just now when I alighted from my bus, I suddenly realised the RGPS girl sitting beside me had fallen asleep and did not alight. I know she probably lives somewhere near as I saw her at the bus stop in the morning everyday. I wanted to go and wake her but I was already at the door so I had not choice but to alight, or I would end of missing the stop as well.
On the way home I was kinda guilty and was thinking: Even if I failed to get any ambush bps(I didn't know I already got it then), I shall not complain as it was probably my retribution for not waking up that girl. Then I went on thinking: If I crafted ambush later and failed, I shall not complain as well because that's called
KARMA for not waking her up.
LOL and I started to curse myself(
If my com got spoiled today... If I drop my mouthpiece tmr...) all the way till I went home. Now I think of it, the stop where I alighted and where she's supposed to alight was only 2 stops away from the interchange so it should be fine. But still, I'm really sorry to whoever you are for not waking you up. orz orz(I really didn't see)

Converse All Star Sneakers
1:44 PM
Something I wish to add on, on Thursday I went to Jurong Point to buy a pair of Converse sneakers.
I already have one pair of sneakers(and I wore it to the Spanish Fantasia concert)
<~The bottom one but this pair has high-top so it doesn't go with shorts and I don't really know how to wear it without looking funny except for covering it with jeans. Can someone enlighten me?( but i like its colour because you can't find any better blue sneakers in Converse shops now) So anyway, I bought this:
Well, this pair of sneakers kinda violate my principles for buying stuff because I really don't like to buy things so popular that you see everyone wearing/using them(eg. Crumpler) But then again I have no choice cos this is the shoes that go with almost everything so it saves me a lot of trouble.(But now i think of it, i wear jeans all the time) Also, it would be better to buy a pair of white(not
shiny silver) sports shoes with a differeny colour logo cos it looks good with shorts. These two types of shoes basically cover all the bottoms I wear. Well, so that goes to my wishlist.
p.s Jeremy, don't say that I am crazy for owning so many pair of shoes XD...(which i know you will)
Sudden visit by great uncle
12:56 PM
Apparently my great uncle isn't interested to catch water from the merlion...
On Thursday, my mum suddenly received a call from Taiwan and my uncle told her that my great uncle(My mother's mother's younger brother) will be coming to Singapore later that night for a business trip. This great uncle, a close relative he might be, was a total stranger to me. The last time I saw him was 7 years ago when my uncle(My mum's younger brother) got married and at the wedding dinner there were so many relatives that I remembered none of their faces.
My great uncle works for an oil company in Taiwan and was coming to inspect the new oil tankers which will be transporting oil from SEA to Taiwan. On Friday he went to work and stayed in the tanker overnight.
On Saturday, he came back early in the afternoon and my mum decided to bring for a tour at downtown. They only took a
'short' walk.
They first went China Town and walked all the way to Clarke Quay, where they visited the Raffles Stamford statue and took photos with merlion.(lol this part reminds of Jeremy trying to drink the water coming from Lionel's mouth) Then they walked to City Hall MRT and took MRT to Orchard. They had dinner at 鼎泰豐, a Taiwan restaurant but strangely has more popularity in Singapore.(But it's really nice) After that they walked all the way from Orchard Road to American Ambassy(Which is like at Holland Road?!) and took bus home. They reached home at about 10pm. Summary of how far the walked: China Town ~> Clarke Quay ~> City Hall ~> MRT to Orchard Road ~> Tour around Orchard Road ~> American AmbassyLOL After listening to my mum's recount, I was so glad I didn't follow them out and decided to complete my math worksheet. And it is also unbelievable that my great uncle, at his fifties, has the stamina to walk such distance after working in a ship for one whole day...
Today is Sunday and he's just left for his inspection on the second tanker, he'll be taking the plane back to Taiwan on monday.
