Hi,

God knows how long since i last blogged. Well, its my personal space, no rush to post or anything =s

Anyway, that aside, i've finally given myself a month's break from work. Phew, its been a tough 3 months of work, work and work! Finally i get to settle down on my comfortable sofa and game on my newly bought PS3 =s

And... to reward myself for my humongous effort, i bought myself a copy of YUI's first album hehe~ Her songs never fails to brighten my lonely nights (or, while clipping people's heads in Blackshot)

Back to the music scene, i think im slipping out of control to K-pop and C-pop (Don't worry YUI, im here for you always!). Recently been slightly crazy about Kara and T~ara... Right below are some songs i like from them

T~ara - Why are you being like this


Kara - Honey


Kara - Mister (Butt shaking action, beware kids!)


(I have no idea why are Youtube videos screwing with me, i tried my best to fix it, but to no avail)

And... C-pop

K ONE - Ru guo mei you ming tian


By2 - Wo zhi dao


Moving on, aside from gaming and manga-ing (Yes i've started to read manga again, the addiction catches on! Noted to fill you in on what im reading in the next post), i went out to watch Shaolin with mummy today...


Ok, as a self proclaimed movie critic, i have to be blunt with this show. The whole plot is utter rubbish. Unless you're desperate for some kung-fu action and you don't really care about the plot, then this show is definitely for you.

For the plot goers (like me), the entire show is built on this word "karma". The show has little or absolutely NO reference to Shaolin. Apart from showing a few kung-fu moves and some moral teachings of the Buddha, i don't see how the show's name is related to the movie at all! They might as well rename the show to "Retributions of a Warlord", the show might in fact get better reviews with that name.

Older movies that had the name "Shaolin" actually showed the entire lives of monks that lived in temples from young to old, and i must say i really enjoyed it, watching the young monks go through hardship and finally gain the true meaning of enlightenment...

Alright lets not get off topic here. Although i really loved the extremely short kung-fu scenes and the short determination one liners from the heroes, the story of the show is entirely off from the title, and with that the final score for the show is...

(3/10)


Alright, its time for some blackshot before i head to bed for a new day of activities...

Mass Heal!~
