Your Kungfu is no match for mine!

It’s been a fair few months since I had any time for this little spot in the internet, and I thought to myself, woah there’re still people who actually visit my site for that few months I’m away. So it struck me that I could make a comeback, but this time, I want the readers to vote for what they want to see here! So starting from now, I’ll sometimes post on what a reader requests for (nothing risque of course). That way I suppose content will be more user-focused rather than me going on my own tangent.

p.s. “Your kungfu is no match for mine! is a deus ex machina in the card game of Kungfu. I played that a few weeks ago at Mindcafe, where you mindlessly throw tables at your enemies for the heck of it. Damn fun, do try!

p.p.s. Also I’ll try writing a small Starcraft II column over at http://www.xykopath.com. If you’re into SC2 do visit the site from time to time :D

Finally, after getting tempted by news of friends visiting the world’s 2nd largest economy that is Japan, I got a chance myself to visit Tokyo. The largest city and the capital of Japan, Tokyo is a backpackers’ hotspot with places like Shibuya, Shinjuku, Harajuku, Akihabara and it is easily connected to places like Disney Land, and the ever-popular tourist attraction, Mount Fuji with their mega-network of trains and subways.

This year’s Chinese New Year is special. In the sense it coincides with Valentine’s, and marks the first Chinese new year I can’t hang out with my pals simply because they’ve got to book in camp really fast. Special in a way I spend the night of Valentine’s watching a movie with my cousins. (T_T) Also special in a way that I spend most time awake sniffing and blowing my nose. Yeah it’s that irritable, in chronic flu-like symptom again.

Probably because of this

Just last weekend, I was engaged in a deeply lengthy game of Magic, The Gathering (MTG). It was a 2 Headed Giant format, with my side being a Sigil of the Empty Throne (White/Blue control) and a Polymorph (Blue/Red control) deck…

Christmas for you, Christmas for me

Christmas

The entirety of Christmas week had seemingly disappeared, with the festive cheer turning into postsantum depression, leaving a bitter aftertaste. Could I have done more?

Perhaps. Perhaps it’s the feeling another year has gone, that makes you think what more you could have done. Maybe I should have picked up photography, tried more games, or learned new skills? But sometimes, what we miss is what we’ve actually done. Maybe it doesn’t sound a lot, maybe it doesn’t make an impressive list long enough to make it a scroll-of-the-year. But it’s always the little things that count, the things we take for granted that count…
