I’m in one of those ‘not in a better mood’ kind of day again, sigh. Just can’t seem to cheer up or have that positive manner for getting anything done. And today’s dinner was sorta screwed up for me anyway, but it’s just a trivial matter so let’s not go into it. But oh well this basically sums up the whole evening for me today, feeling grouchy and all. Struggling with my ‘inner-self’ seems so frustrating at times, heh.

Unfortunately, someone out there just simply enjoys spoiling or ‘making’ my day, by spouting more blasphemy on his blog. Frankly, I really can’t be much bothered with his actions or arrogance. I have my own life and things to worry and think about, so what if he thinks so and so forth, so what if he thinks he is sorry for his own actions, so what if he thinks that’s his own blog and he can write whatever he likes. Let me tell you, he’s really one of those bu zheng qi de nan ren (read: weakling) who just simply procrastinates too much and never puts his words into action. And can you believe it, HE been NOT financially solvent (read: he owes people debts, countless of debts) can actually afford to indulge in things you would have never expected. Some of you might even think twice to splurge 22 bucks on just a single movie ticket, hell I even had to think twice for that, it was actually the Steamboy anime screening for the 18th Film Fest opening at Shaw Lido yesterday, since that was like my most expensive movie experience throughout my whole life to date. Anyway the anime was good, honestly I was not expecting much out of it, imagining it been just a simple story about steam technology, but no it offered more than that. It has a very strong anti-war message in it, together along with that touching issue on father-and-son relationship as well as bonding ties, and also one’s struggle for power and independence. A very inspirational movie to me in my opinion, definitely one of those better animes I have seen to date. I’m not a very hardcore anime fan, but I do definitely know how to appreciate good animes. And then coming next week, there’s e upcoming Apple Seed anime screening at Prince Cinema. Also part of the Film Fest, this will be a more futuristic anime that touches on biological race domination, uber cool mechas as well as a strong love theme in it. The fact that I already watched the downloaded version at home twice and yet I have the urge to watch it in the theatre tells you much about it. It’s on the 23rd April this month and those of you who are interested can book your tickets online through SISTIC online booking through their website, sorry this only applies to Singaporeans locally. (read: I know there are foreigners reading my site too, so I had to put this fine print)

Anyway, yesterday dropped by Sim Lim Square to meet up with Jimmy and Brandon before the anime screening. Val was surprisingly there too with Sky, and it was only then did I found out they actually bumped into each other coincidentally while shopping at Bugis, heh what a small world. Val was actually behaving like an erratically happy lil boy with his new-found love, the Apple Powerbook, and boy am I envious. He was bitching about his new toy been generating too much heat when he rests his Powerbook on his laps, so he needs to hunt for this special accessory for his Powerbook which is actually just two pieces of plastic ball-stands that provides support for the Powerbook, when resting on a flat surface. So we went shopping for this ‘thing’, and he brought us to this shop on the top level. And it was only then did I realised that actually Apple products have so much ‘redundant’ accessories to buy, or splurge. I would say it’s really amazing, and it just further proves to me that Apple is indeed actually selling and marketing their products as a lifestyle, and not just something for the end-user, or the average joe to toy with. Brilliant indeed. Not that I have been brain-washed or compelled to buy Apple products, but I have to admit that Apple products are indeed style over usability. Which is actually a good thing, no? (^ ^)”

Oh well, I should probably cheer up. The weekends are here and I don’t know if I should just stay at home to mug my books or go out to chill. Have been over-spending for quite abit this month so I reck’on I should cut down on my expenses. I still have to pick up my Electroplankton from Gamescore later tomorrow, so I think I would just head to town in the evening and meet up my friends for coffee or something simple, nothing too fanciful. Ok signing out, have a nice weekend ahead everyone.
