Sometimes, there are things in this world that you just shouldn't ask.

Capote

"If I leave here without understanding you, the world will see you as a monster. I don't want that."

Such delicate words behind a sweet betrayal.

How far an author would go to finish his book, suppressing his conscience by relying on alcohol to dull the pain of offering comfort to the killers while wishing for their deaths in execution so that his book can be finished.

And let's not forget how Phillip Seymour Hoffman perfectly carries the essence of his role.

Names

"Be nice to me. This is my first donation!", the sticker was put on me today.

Not entirely true, as I had wisdom tooth surgery within 3 mths and unable to donate any drop at all.

Had a very yummy lunch with a couple of frens in Chinatown - Jia Xiang Kuching's Kolo mee, it still tastes sooooooooo good.

Came back around 2-3 AM. Wasn't doing anything noble but something different.

Instead of coffee or wine, we had Himalayan tea latte and played some brainless games that goes on for 4 hrs +.

Going round the table, each person has to name brands with its first letter the same as the last letter of the previous brand.

Example: Nike > Estee Lauder > Ralph Lauren ....

It was hilarious when we get the same letter again and again or when the game revolutionize to hotels, food, drinks and the list goes on.

It has been a long day but it will be one of those days that we will look back and have a good hearty laugh abt it!

Nike vs Adidas

Nike Inc, the world's largest shoe company, filed a patent infringement suit against the industry's number two player - German rival Adidas-Salomon yesterday.

Alleging that several Adidas products infringe upon Nike's patented SHOX cushioning technology, which was protected by more than 19 separate patents.

Shoes in question - are some of Adidas's high profile shoes using Adidas's a3 cushioning system:
* Kevin Garnett signature shoe










* Adidas 1 footwear











Rumour has it that it has something to do with the Adidas' recent $3.8 billion take over of Reebok, which significantly narrowed the gap between the world’s top two sporting goods companies.

But then again, what's new, eh? It seems like every few months the federal courts are approached by big players suing each other. In the past, the table turned around where Adidas sued Nike for selling workout pants with two parallel stripes along the seam which were deemed too similar to Adidas’ trademark three-stripe logo.

Curry Favor

Curry Favor specialises in authentic Japanese curry, which its secret recipe is the excellent mix of both the texture and the taste.

I had the Cheese Katsu Curry where cheese was infused into the fried pork and with just a lil pressure between the teeth, the fragrant melted cheese would simply oozes out.

Meat is crispy, sauce is sweet and tantalizing. Nyam!

Though they got my orders wrong and I had to wait another 20 mins but the first bite just makes forgiveness so easy!

Flu

Down with flu.

Worst feeling ever.

Nose blocked, taste buds hay wired, hearing affected.

Argh!

Brokeback Mountain

"Can you feel the love?" a fren asked after the movie.

The fact that I counted the number of fingers I had on my hand, speaks for itself.

It's not the sexuality.

The movie just doesn't live up to its immense reputation. In fact, it's over complimented and *yawn*.

Let's just say I want my money back.

Gutter cleaner

Finally, met up w/ a fren from high school, whom we hvn't meet since 1998. Had a drink at
Max Brenner Chocolate Bar, Esplanade before we sat by the waters to catch up further, accompanied by some rock music.

Went to Starbowl at Kim Seng Plaza around 11 pm. It was a blast! Hvn't touch bowling, eversince 1998 at Hailai, Ancol. Made a few new frens and with a combination of all the guyz's tips, a gutter cleaner has improved and managed to double my last score from my first one.

It was a nice change of the usual and typical coffees or movies. Came back around 3.30 AM.

Arms soring but happy. At last, found frens who likes to bowl in Singapore! They even kept a chart of all the past scores for analysis. Bowling freaks? Let's just call it passion.

North Country

My hearts goes out for Lois Jenson's guts and dignity.

This movie stirs u upside down - shock, anger, sympathy, disgust, sadness.

Emotional punch, well delivered.

"... Right has nothing to do in the real world ..."

Depends.

Confession of a zebra

Zebra wants to chop off all her tenants and lose its job to become a hindu and return to bali to rot for the rest of its life.

I once was in Bali too. Mesmerized by its charm and a similar impulse overwhelms me too.

With so much serentiy in the atmosphere, it's hard to snap back to reality.

Without audio

Watched a show today without its audio. A corrupted file, obviously.

Made me realize the importance of not only body language but also lips reading.

It is a skill.

Anyone know where to learn that?
