Southern Ridges Part 2

Set out to finish what I had left undone. Actually, all I did was I just hiked from Harbourfront to Mountfaber Safra cause my friend wanted to see the Henderson Waves.

These stairs, they do not end I tell you.



Too tired to go on.

Starcraft II Battle Report

The long awaited sequel to Starcraft is finally ....er still in production. Starcraft II's website has released the Battle Report though. It shows the alpha development phase of Starcraft II and the game balancers having a go at one another in Starcraft II. The report does give a nice feel of how the game will be played and it definately feels alot like Starcraft I. Check out the link to take a look.

Major Food Update

Check it out, Waraku De Pasta. I was passed the receipt so I wouldn't need to remember the names of all the dishes, and I lost it. So the first pic is a Maccha Float and Grapefruit I think. The second pic is something that escapes me. 3rd is mine a half half set were 2 spaghetti's (Waraku Carbona & Something Napoleon) are served in smaller servings (HAHA The FOOLS, my conquest of all the dishes of Waraku shall be complete sooner). The next one looks like a toilet bowl with rice and finally I forgot the last one as well(poor memory). The Carbona looked creamy but tasted alittle to the plain side. Napoleon was great though, never knew you could do that was sauce and sausage.

A section of Funan's Foodcourt sells Pepper Lunch. You have to stir it yourself. Added some cheese, I think that made the rice sticky, which was also nice. Rice was fragrant and well mixed (cause it was me who mixed it), meat average, I'd say kinda worth it. Serving's small though.

This dish is amazing, not because of its taste, not because of its presentation, but because I don't have the slightest hint how it got into my phone pics.

Iciban's Set Meal, meh.... I've had better. But servings alot for the price though.

The Southern Ridges

Whether you’re a sporty runner looking for a good workout and a breath of fresh air amidst the lush nature, or just someone seeking a leisurely stroll to enjoy the rich greenery of Singapore, the Southern Ridges has a lot to offer.

This 9km chain of green spaces spans across Mount Faber Park, Telok Blangah Hill Park, Kent Ridge Park and ends at West Coast Park, each seamlessly linked by foot trails and connection bridges.

Though I didn't walk the entire park, it was still a nice sight to see. Looking down while walking was very nerve wreaking as well.

Katamari For Iphone

Good news for all you Katamari lovers out there with iPhones, Katamari Damacy has been released on the iPhone. Relying on the tilting function as a control mechanism to move your katamari around it seems like a fun concept.

Unfortunately, the current average rating for the game is 2/5. The controls are flawed which leads to difficult gameplay. Hopefully this will be fixed.

Dragonball Evolution Movie Trailer

For those of you who have been following the Dragonball movie, the first trailer has been released. Expect no Super Saiyan, no Freeza, no Vegeta, no nothing. With none of the important factors of Dragonball incoporated into the movie, I don't know how this movie is going to turn out. Would it be a hit like Death Note or a flop like the first Street Fighter movie? Its coming out March 2009, so wait for it.

I seem to be under a state of absolute boredom. A state so horrifying that it forces one to explore the bowels of youtube for a shred of entertainment. How did I find these vids ? What did I place in the search box ? WTF is wrong with me ? Well give the vids a try, you might find some 2 minutes of entertainment from them.

Steampunk Starwars

Its seems that all thing steampunk are starting to catch my eyes. Its appears that I have taken a liking to this genre. Here is another piece to add to the collection of already exquisite items, the Steampunk Star Wars.

Expect To See Android HTC & Sony Ericsson Phones in 2009

This post right after I posted some software for Windows Mobile (-_-'). Well it was bound to happen anyway but to happen so soon ? I haven't even seen Starhub or Singtel advertise the Google Phone yet (I've seen a few sets here and there around Sim Lim and other places). Expect some heated Mobile Phone OS action next year.

Mario Bro's Theme (Tesla Remix)

Everyone knows the Mario Theme. I've heard it millions of times, in the game, guitar, piano, bottles, miltary band, farted and so on. And now another to add to the collection of Mario Themes is this real cool vid of the song sung by 2 tesla coils. Check it out

Movie: Bolt 3D

Watched the animated Disney movie the other day. Went down to Suntec to catch the 3D version (with 3D glasses and all). Being my first time, it took some getting use to. But after the initial dizziness, I managed to enjoy the movie. The story is about the dog acting for a show but he thinks everything is real (sort of like The Trueman Show, with a dog for Jim Carrey) and he escapes the set to experience the real world for the first time. Simple relaxing story, just sit down, open your heart and enjoy the show.

Ratings

Story : Your average Disney movie

Fav Scene : When Bolt saw her owner with another dog (so sad)

Overall: Nice relaxing movie, watch with your kids if you have any. Watchable even on weekends (the 3d one) (6.5/10)

Rare Endangered Species

Well either these are a bunch of very rare animals or the guy on top has a nice red bolster with eyes the frog was a victim of xray photography and that is not a giant grasshopper but a very small hand. But serisly, there are some really weird stuff in this site and most of them are real close to extinction. Check it out.
