AFA 08 day 1 + 2

a must go anime festival asia 08!
luckily it's on my book out weekend (gonna spend my leave if even it's not)

day 1:
i reached there at 12.30pm then meet up with akira and walk around... (he went in the morning). i've pre-registered ticket online for both days but seems like it only applies to the big crowd in the morning as the queue is short and fast. so they just issued tickets normally.
the booths are disappointing, or maybe i expected much better stuff. there're figurines and art piece display, there's a nice booth with original shonen jump drawings. the colouring is nice. there're many booths selling their own products, and a corner with arcade combat games competition (KOF, SF, TEKKEN). nothing much...
the pink tranlucent exclusive gundam exia is sold out when i reached. disappointed*
luckily there's still the 1/144 translucent exia to compensate, akira bought one too. we met up with kelvin for lunch in NYDC later on.
akira and i waited and watched mizuki ichirou concert at 1915. ANIKI! ANIKI! ANIKI! many crazy fans... tiring day. stella and julian stayed over at my home to watch football and played ps3.

day 2:
woke up at 1330. lol...
went down to suntec again, and again with akira to walk around more. but i kinda missed the cosplay competition which was at 1330. =(
anyway... the big thing of AFA08 is that may'n is performing live!! the singer who sang as sheryl nome in macross frontier. the crowd is even more than ichirou's concert as expected. she sang 7 songs in a row without much stop between each song, and her voice is great even in live. i didn't pay $100+ to be the diamond vip of the concert, who can go up stage to have a handshake and autograph.

-----
some photos i took with my iphone which doesn't have zoom and light adjustment. =(

i didn't take much pic for figurines as my camera is not good enough with them under the light and protection glass.

i think their costumes are very well done.

zero i took a pic with C.C. on saturdayanother pic with another C.C. on sunday

maybe she shouldn't sit down with her white costume.

picture with ranka and alto

oops... i asked a cute mm to take a pic with me. meow~

characters from macross frontier

ichirou concert

may'n autograph

legendary gundam cosplay, alot of effort... with the eyes glowing.

dismantled gundam costume reminds me of self destruct in gundam wing. lol

call of duty: world at war

i've been playing it online on my ps3. it's very addictive...
when someone gets a killing streak, they can call out the dogs to attack the opponents (homing) and omg.. i hate those dogs!! they are just imba!
people shout over the speaker: "fuck! damn those dogs!"
it's really irritating when u've like 3-4 of them coming to you in different directions.

2 days mc

i woke up this morning with fever and sore throat, and my temperature is 39.3.
i was given green light to report sick outside.

this is the first time i'm sick after i shifted to yew tee, so i just entered a random clinic in limbang. the clinic name is JO-LIN. lol

and.. it sucks..

firstly, i was not asked for IC to verify the particulars that i've given (first visit)

secondly, the doctor didn't ask me about family medical history or even my own, which is very common for first timer.

thirdly, she just rushed through everything. as i said i've fever, cough, sore throat and running nose, so she did all those normal checks.
1. ask me how long had i have these, and i answer accordingly.
2. tell me to open my mouth and use a wooden stick + torch to check my throat. before i open my mouth big enough, just remove the stick and off the torch, "throat infection" she didn't really have a proper look.
3. put the thermometer in my ear. she just pressed the button and remove it when the tip just touches my ear slightly. "oh... 36. no fever." (of course no fever when u don't insert it properly into the ear. -_-)
4. she placed the statoscope to another spot when i've not even breathe in and out on the earlier one. she just tap it around my chest and the back.
5. but the mc part is not as fuck up
"i'll give u 1 day mc, how old r u?"
"20"
"ns?"
"yes"
"ok, do u want more days on mc?"
i gave a sian look*
"2 then, so u can rest at home"

pictures of my room

new toy

and the new toy is...... PS3.
finally bring it home after some comparison with xbox 360.

bought 3 games,
eternal sonata (RPG)
PES 2009 (football)
initial d extreme stage (racing)

go home staight to try it out, i'm just to eager to play it. >_<
sg went down with me to funz, and he carried it home for me! (go home by car though)
anyway, we just rush to my room, open it out and read the menu, but it's just 2 wires (same as PS2). we looked like 2 kids enjoying a boxing day. lol.

when i just connected everything to my TV, stella and julian were at the door with mac delivery. and omg... she screamed damn loud when she play PES. -__-

next to buy:
monitor and speaker

9 days in camp

gonna stay in camp for 9 days, and i'm preparing it by transfering videos into my psp. the only person that can console me is maki, so i put teppan shojo akane in my psp.


-----

anyway, i've bought a carpet and a CD player.
as for the CD player, it can be used as DVD player which is now connected to my TV.
gonna buy a PS3 when i book out~

i went down to elizabeth to watch arsenal vs manchester united at night!
the gunners didn't let me down, a 2-1 victory at home, and i can book in without those ass's nonsense.

things to buy

kinda settle down in the new place, although i've not packed everything yet. e.g. my CDs.

and i've a list of things to buy:

1. PS3
2. PC monitor
3. PC speaker
4. carpet
5. clock
6. CD player with radio

-----

1. i was considerng between PS3 and xbox
2. very monitor, and it has scratches on it plus some occasional pink screen
3. together with monitor,and it went silent just now
4. prevent my chair (wih wheels)from scratching my floor
5. i hate my alarm clocks, and i want a disply clock
6. i don't really download songs

shift home

actually i've been packing for a month (remember that i've little book out time, and probably some lack of discipline)

step 1:
pack some stuff into boxes and luggages

step 2:
load them to the car (i need to walk the stairs to the lift)

step 3:
drive to the new place and unload

step 4:
carry them to the new place and unpack

step 5:
reuse those boxes and luggages for the next wave

after repeating these steps for around 30 times? it's torturing, and with my back injury, it gets worse.
the mover shifted those sofa, and those big and heavy stuffs on the 30th in 1 wave.
the question is... why don't just pay them for another wave? which i think it is equal to 15x of our own step 1 to 5.


the movers


just the manga alone can kill.

the unpacking is another bitch. -_-
i had 1x hour of sleep after the bbq and dota, then 16 hours of packing, carrying, unpacking. shag... and book in in the morning.

platoon bbq

29/10/08

i heard so much about eugene's house (the driver that has a driver wait for him outside camp), and i finally had the chance to see it.

and... holyshit! i didn't know singapore have such place.

when i alight from the cab, the gate is opened. a big gate.
i walked up the slope and reached the entrance with a round about, garage and stuff. 2 maids were waving at me to welcome me. just the area out there is a X times of my home. lol.. i know it's quite unbelievable. when i walked into the living room, the gang was playing wii, rock band. 3x guitars, 1x drum set. 1x mic (maybe more hiding somewhere, lol)


and we bbq at one 'small' corner of his home


just when i wonder why is the living so small, as well as the TV. there is another main part of the living room, with a fountain. -__-
the day before i was told to bring coins, and it was actually to throw in and pray. amen.. ~_~

her sister helped us to take a group pic, and she's quite good looking.
someone: "guys, please look at the camera... the camera..."

10 of us travelled to town to dota, and i reached home at 0300 on 301008. bathed and watched arsenal vs tottenham live. and yes... i'm very disappointed with the game result, and the manu fans in camp will always add salt to it.

sleep for an hour and a half to shift things to new home.

last weekend

i've a busy month, shifting home and stuff.

just do some update... in separate posts~

25/10/08
i went to sentosa with nat n co in the afternoon, and it was almost a perfect day. because merrick is not going~ his mummy and him are sick, as well as kai shi.

i can't remember when did i last went to a beach... and thank god the weather is good. played some beach football, look at bikini babes (didn't see any except a hot mummy in bikini with 2 kids) and i wet my whole shorts, well... because i went into the water.

after washing up and some food, we played the LUGE, a skateboard thingy that you sit on it and slide down the slope. it's quite fun but just too short... below is michelle acting cute when we're waiting for our turn.


LUGE and skyride is in a package, we slide down the hill with LUGE, we went back up with skyride. and i was quite worried that i may drop my slippers. and i took a pic with the risk of saying bye to my iphone.


i left early for shuyu's birthday bbq, which is just downstairs of my new home. but i've not shifted in then though. maybe i can book one next time, seems very convenient.

a pic of her dog. lol..
