  It's a pretty funny title, but the word 'Kaito' automatically reins in my interest. Big time. I love the little blue-haired guy. He's so adorable, my goodness. The pre-sale orders are obviously closed (because there are a lot of fans out there who know these things and snap them up faster than SuJu concerts, I swear). Anyway, I'm too late so I think I'll starve off my desire to get one of it by

Whilst reading all my usual blogs which review anime series (one of which is here), I realised everyone (including the readers) was consistently lamenting about the anime season which just ended in Japan - the Fall 2011 season. There were enough voices that got me curious. The message was consistent, over and over again, across 16 blogs (yes, I read that many). They were certain that the Fall

WOW. I am so glad I got started on watching Fate/Zero before my studies begin at the end of Jan. Like, seriously. It just finished its run in Japan, in time for the Winter anime series to begin. I'm only beginning to catch up since Mom has returned to SG. Been reading up on my usual blogs with regards to reviews on this anime in the meantime, and zilch negative feedback. I had thought, "Well, it

I haven't blogged in ages, and this also means I haven't been on my computer as well. Besides the occasional booting up for the sake of studying previously, I have done nothing else on it. I check my gmail sporadically. It also means I have NO idea what's really happening in cyberspace, haven't read up on all my blog feeds except a few selected ones, and I am completely not in tune with my anime/

Wow, I'm actually glad I gave it another go. The first time I went to Eat Drink Bento, I thought it was overhyped. I didn't really enjoy my bento box dinner, and I thought it was ma ma teh. I definitely had better Japanese food elsewhere easily. Yesterday, we took up an offer which was irresistibly hard to reject. For $19.50 each, you get a complimentary drink, a bowl of rice or miso soup, a bowl

I strolled into Borders at Knox SC which was having a 30% sale storewide before they completely close down all branches in Australia. It was pretty sad to see its shelves slightly empty, and people picking up things to buy as though they were scavengers. So, since I wanted to kill time whilst waiting for a friend, I started to browse around. Pretty disorientating. There were books laid everywhere

As I need to jot down every single thing I'm eating and drinking for the next 2 weeks, I have decided to roll up my sleeves and try cooking a few times over this period. I had the luxury of eating this beautiful salad served up by Tripod Farmers at the Good Food & Wine Show on Friday, and I committed all the ingredients to heart as I scoffed the whole thing down at its stand.

My unit is the one with the 3 small windows. Extreme right window - bathroom's. Other two - bedroom's. You can see the top bit of a lengthier window for the bedroom at the other corner. The unit below me is a 2 bedroom unit, so that's much bigger. I prefer having smaller windows on this side, because it's facing West and the setting sun's rays are something I totally try to avoid.

Yes, I will revert my eyes to the Japanese manga scene after a long absence. -laughs- ... although anime might just have to wait a little longer. Still not interested in resuming any of the titles I last watched.

CLAMP's xxxHoLic has ended its run officially, since it debuted in 2003. I didn't know it finished up in February this year, but obviously, I have lost touch with all my manga/anime stuffs since coming home from S'pore, and that was a long time ago. Yesterday night, I decided to do a massive update - which means chionging thru everything, and only went to sleep at 3am. I shouldn't have read

May, already? May day, may day! How did it just sneak up on me like that? It's been an overload of news recently. Kate & Will's Royal Wedding, Singapore's General Election, and now Osama Bin Laden's death. I did try to filter out the ads for the Royal Wedding as much as I could, but I watched the live feed of the wedding from start to finish. Totally enjoyed it. I love to read up on all news

Ah, 5 days with the girls ended on Sunday. As the old adage rings true, good times fly so quickly that it's ridiculous. I was starting to feel unwell on the eve of the girls' arrival into Melbourne, and my condition never got any better during the girl's stay. It was probably a 'gift' from my colleague the day before, who was afflicted with a really bad cough/sore throat. Then I went to the gym,

And we're into Autumn here, in this weird part of the world. I love Autumn the most. It's beautiful, melancholic, and it's a welcomed break from the murky summer heat. Being borned in September, I enjoy the affinity I have with it as well. I do prefer rugging up than sweating it out. All the documents which required my attention were done and taken care of. It took me one day at a time to get

I need to book myself a day of rest during one of the weekends in May. No more evening apptmts during weekdays, no more outings on both Sat and Sun. There's always something coming up, it's a bit ridiculous. Need to unwind, need to do things like watching random clips on Youtube for the whole day in my tracksuit pants, need to stuff my face with potato chips. I don't have time to go to the toilet

Upon knowing that the British hosts of Top Gear (minus cute little Hammond) were roaring into Brisbane and Melbourne and hosting a live show, we got our tickets early and planned our day as it got nearer. Jeremy Clarkson and James May, here I cometh. Firstly, I set a personal record by waking up early for breakfast... on a weekend! But shortly after, I was horrified when I switched on the telly

After waiting impatiently since August 2010, my reaction was pretty lukewarm when the Three representative called me up to tell me that the courier company had left a pickup notice for my parcel at the nearest Post Office. Still, there was no masking of my gratitude to this particular rep who kept to her promises and followed up on my case. This was partly why I was left waiting for so long.

Shortly after my maiden concert with Super Junior, I was all ready to be swooned off my feet by the one and only Michael Bublé.  First time in Rod Laver Arena. Pretty massive! The wait was pretty long, with an extended performance by the warmup act, Naturally 7, followed by another interval before the man himself showed up. Naturally 7 is a fantastic and unique group like no other. They need no

 I feel your pain, Onew. It's hard to wake up in the mornings. My new year resolution was to get into an exercise regime of sorts. But I did wonder about how I was going to ease myself into it, because I hadn't exercised since my P.E. days in school. I wasn't keen on going for kickboxing / cardio classes which had high impact on my joints since I hadn't properly moved them since ... forever. I

I now know my body isn't as strong as it used to be, when I could hold up till the early mornings even after a party!

♫ Red Hot Chilli Peppers - Tell Me Baby For the past few months, our organisation was busily working towards the 3 yearly QICSA accreditation. It's funny how time flies, but you can remember every single day in which you worked extra hard in order to make sure everything was sui sui for the accreditation. All meetings were held with a single goal in mind, every delegation and completed work for

Because Chrissy and I rocked up at Doncaster SC to catch a movie on a Mon night, and then realised the selection there was miserly, we had to settle for a title which wasn't scary, gory or simply crappy. We decided to take our chances on Eat, Pray, Love. I had wanted to see The Last Airbender (because I really like CG action scenes like that), or Legend of the Guardians (fluffy owls galore!),

We were supposed to go to Peninsula Hot Springs on Sat, but certain things happened so we couldn't go. Chrissy called me on Fri at work, asking me what exactly our plans were because there was no real conclusion from all the emails to and fro so far. I had no real idea what had been discussed due to a lack of time to check my emails, thus I thought of some quick ideas which could be good on an

I received the LPAB Enrolment Package recently, and it was a reminder that my 'carefree season' will be ending very soon. A little something within me died. Who wants to be preoccupied with studying after work hrs? I don't think anyone will be putting up their hands for this voluntarily. Whether I pass or fail my exams this time round, I am guaranteed another 1-2 yrs more of correspondence

Captured this during lunch break some time ago Just unbelievable. October's gonna zoom by, for sure. I was lining up at the Post Office earlier today, planning to send some stuffs back home to my mother, and there they were. Yes, Christmas greeting cards. Glittery things they were, all piled conspicuously along the queue so that unsuspecting people waiting in the line would buy them without

Been replaying this song, BLOOD sung by KAITO in my iTunes, along with its other track 刹月華 from SCL Project's production album, VanaN'Ice. Vocaloids are synthesizers of voices, some being produced by Yamaha. Some Japanese fans have tapped into their amazing songwriting and composition skills, and using these array of voices have produced outstanding original works. There's tons and tons of

Lately, I feel like I have no time to do anything I really want to do. Work takes up at least 8 hrs a day, but that's really the norm for most of us anyway. So, I just wonder why I feel rushed, or why I can't finish anything I want to do. My manga updates are also incomplete, with seemingly too many titles to catch up to. Of course, reading manga isn't given the highest priority in most people's

I decided that I was going to do something different to mark my 30th. Mind you, it should be an obvious change, an intentional move to commemorate the occasion, but something not too risky and silly. And well, I'd gone to do exactly that and I think it isn't too bad. Let's see what the responses will be when I go to work tomorrow. -rubs hands in glee- The Press Club was a great place to have a

2 days into being 30, I honestly don't feel any different. Am I supposed to? OK, so I have to tick a different age group bracket in surveys and forms, but I reckon I still look the same in the mirror (which actually may not be a good thing. Hmm, it's debatable). I had a lovely time on the day itself, beginning at work and ending at a fine-dining restaurant in the city. My boss baked me a lovely

I love the internet because it brings me endless entertainment and information. I can buy books after reading reviews about them online. And then I never get to read said books because I'm still on the internet. My books-to-read list is seriously piling, but then I find time to blog about the fact that I am not reading those spanking new books. Good grief.

I know the old adage - as you grow older, time flies by quicker. But seriously, this is too fast!!
