Growing up


The best Anime of my time, Rurouni Kenshin, also known as Samurai-X. Swordsmanship animations were uniquely classy, depicting the troubled times in Meiji history. The story line was simply out of this world, with the invasion of Kyoto the climax of the whole animation for me.

Today I had the privilege of inviting the douchebag that introduced this animation to me, Mr Chong Yong Qi. We never really started off on the right foot, he was a typical boy school "ang moh" punk and I'm your neighbourhood "ching cheong" ah beng. Somehow I do not recall why and how we got this close,  for reals.

Anyways, while waiting for Mr Chong, i was wondering around Marina Square mall, to my surprise, there was a huge cosplay event going on at the main atrium.You could see all the amazing make-ups, hair-dye, props and costume worn, absolutely out of this world. I'm glad the community is going strong, "Otakus" or "Geeks" are not taken very well locally, those who party hard and sleep around are the more sough-after.

On-route to the cinema, I went by the video arcade area, #OMG.


I went nuts, enjoyed myself so much it's like liberation from the "Iron-Caged" world.

Life's been too harsh and fast, I've been trying to get ahead of others so much that I'm getting ahead of myself.

Or maybe I just do not want to grow up.

Can't believe I actually took time to update and maintain our YEI Forum. Never knew I could be this crazy, but I know 1 thing for sure, it's never too late to start? But I'm really, growing too old for this. Ye Eun simply gorgeous! Credit: yeeun-impact.net / yeeun.wordpress.com And I blew up during dinner...
While caking, someone pop right into my head. Anyway, my top strength is: 1. Ideation: loves associating and providing ideas 2. Command: leadership, loves to put his ideas through 3. Futurist: star-trek 4. Individualisation: view individual base on strength weakness, not stereotyping 5. Learner: keen to learn In short, I'm a futuristic creative open commander! Sounds awesome eh? Strength Finder 2.0 is a book that only concentrate on strengths ($39.00) zero about weaknesses so all you hear are good stuff. ======= Individualisation Anyway back to my caking session. Mr Ibrahim, came to my mind. He was quite a good looking Indian back in my primary school days. I've always tried to protect him though I admit to join in bullying him once in a while. Sometimes he'd come to me "begging" to help him or lend him money with his hands in "praying mode". I took pity of him ever since he did that once and when he told me "All i got is 40cents a day and they sto...

The Pioneer LX55 Bluray Player Review

Pioneer Corporations, once the leading company for Home Theatre Systems, Display and Optical players, began to falter when the likes of Samsung, LG, Sharp etc came into picture with lower end products for the mass consumer. Pioneer, who steer clear form the niche market, producing high end products, fell to it's knees, withdrawing from the TVs market and started a joint venture with Sharp, resulted in absolute catastrophe. Pioneer fanboys nicknamed the products "Sharpioneer" A bold direction, right or wrong, there's too much points to take, although myself would 200% standby their decision to continue with making highend products previously, even though they failed eventually. Anyhow, ever since that catastrophic "Sharpioneer" released, tons of consumers ditched their players within days of purchases, the management finally woke the FUCK UP. Director Product Planning and Marketing Pioneer USA, Chris Walker started visiting multiple online forums, gat...
