?Am I blind?

Am I blind? I'm not sure at all...

Why does my heart hurts so much whenever I hear her mentioning about him?!

How much more things must I do in order to your eyes & your heart fixed onto me?

How much more do I need to do before you can see me?

How much more things must I do more than him?

How much more.... How much more...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I love the rain...

Because whenever it rains, it reflected the sadness within me...

When it rains, my heart rains as well...

Whenever heaven doesn't send rain, I'll take a bathe... The water coming out from the shower-head is just like the rain... "Tap, Tap, Tap" all over my body...

I can cry all I want when I'm bathing... No one will know... Because even I dunno whether it's rain or tears...

I love the rain...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I always wonder...

"What if one day I disappear from the face of this Earth..."

Will anyone notice? Will anyone be sad? Will anyone conduct a search for me?

Or will my disappearance go unnoticed?

I don't know... Maybe I should try it one day...

Regina's Birthday

After yesterday's rushing about to get the items ready for Regina's Birthday, finally today has arrived. Before I went to work, I stopped over at the Cake shop to pay the remaining amount of the cake. Then, I dashed across the road to the Florist shop to pay the money for 2 Sunflowers...

Ok! Everything is all set & ready. What's lacking is a gift & card for Regina... The day's work was rather smooth... Almost all the wedding packages' inquiries are being handled by me now, unless I have certain things I'm not sure then I'll seek clarification from Eileen or Mr. Michael...

And more surprising... All of us knocked off at 6pm haha!!! GREAT! Enough time for me to head down to Apollo Center to prepare the dining table and get a Birthday Card for Regina.

7:50pm. SHOWTIME! Met up with Hui & Regina at Clark Quay station. All dressed very nice haha!!! When we arrived at the Vegetarian Restaurant at Apollo Center, Regina got a shock when she saw the things on the table... Big sunflowers by the side and the gifts for her placed nicely in the center... Finished up with a Birthday Card

[Hope you don't mind the designs on the card... Cuz I haven done drawing for almost 7 years...]

We ordered a lot, a lot of food haha! Well enough talk.. Here are the photos...


Regina [Left], Hui [Right]

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As long as you're happy... No matter how big the sacrifice is, I'm willing to do it for you...

2nd day @ work

Today at work, I'm beginning to remember the various packages, plus some of the separate charges...

I'm beginning to slowly take over more & more of the Sales job. Initiated several phone calls, e-mail replies, faxing of quotations, as well as fixing appointments with customers.

I have this strong feeling. That if I successfully learn and pick up all the necessary skills needed to operate the company, I'll be helping Han Xiong with this family business.... But I'm not gonna think so much first... Better learn everything slowly and steadily...

Took a look at the photographs Han Xiong had taken at a kindergarden. The KIDS ARE SO CUTE!!! haha! Every expression on their faces are so innocent...so pure...so flawless... Their photographs really brighten up my day...

Can't wait for the day where I'm able to take their photos all by myself... HA!!! girls and boys! You just wait... One day, Kor Kor will take all your super cute photos for you... haha!!!

Can't wait for tomorrow... More work to be done... More things to learn... More appointments to fix, more customers to follow-up... And of cause more Cute photos to look at haha!!!

First day @ work

[EXCITED EXCITED EXCITED!!!] These were the words that kept going through my mind ever since I've gotten my job at Academy Video.

Woke up at 815am, and began to freshen up myself. Spent a little more time going through my cupboard to pick the right clothes for work [It's been a while since I did this... Used to do this before I go to school haha!!!]

Received a call from my boss, Mr. Michael, around 915am [MY GOSH!! My boss called me!!! I was like OH MY GOSH!!], asking me whether I'm on the way to work? OF CAUSE IT'S A YES!!! haha!

With that, I merrily made my way down to work... Can't wait for the excitement and adventures that awaits me at work!

Arrived at work 15mins early. GREAT! First person I saw was Boss. I guessed that was a good sign. I sat down for a while before he showed me around and introduced to me the jest of the job. Product Presentation.

It took a quite a while to differentiate the different category. Though I'm still slightly confused between the 1st two premium packages. But don't worry... Give me another two days I'll memorise everything.

After that, Han Xiong, another of my colleague, slowly taught me the rest of the stuffs. A very nice guy.

Before I knew it, it was lunch. Han Xiong took me to this chinese stir-fry restaurant near Outram MRT Station. At the same time, I met up with one of the senior photographer, Bernard. But he wasn't feeling well today, as he suffered food posioning. GOsh! Hope you'll recover soon...

Then, we walked around the shops near our company. Lots of small eateries, salon schools, foot-reflexology & dermatology shops. GREAT!!! haha! And had a small chat. At least I know that we both like to look at girls haha!!

Not long after we went back to office, we had to rush off for an appointment with a kindergarden school at Geylang. And Han Xiong asked me to tag along. I was surprised ... Never realised that on my first day of work, I would be attached out for appointment... The appointment was rather brief, as it was our first meet-up, didn't close the deal, as the school had a tight budget. But nevertheless, it was a great experience. The feeling of going back to Sales was great, but the feeling of selling something of great meaning felt even better! Though I made a mistake, I bull-shited a little bit during the appointment. Han Xiong was quick to point that out during the drive back, and I too, admitted that mistake.

By the time we arrived back in Office, it was around 4pm. Gosh! Time really do fly when you've lots of things to do... Did a little bit of OT, because Boss has to attend a big appointment tomorrow morning at 730am. So, I helped him out with the powerpoint presentation. Reached home around 9pm. Was tired but it was worth it...

Tomorrow's another day! Dunno will have swimming with Hui or not. Else, I'll go back to Camp to have BBQ with Ham Ham, Roy and Francis... I really miss them... [GOSH!! I SOUNDED SO SO SO GAY!!!!]

Army Half Marathon 2007

Singapore Bay Run [Previously known as Shears Bridge Run or Army Half marathon] took a different approach this year, as the location was shifted to the New NDP ground instead of Padang.

Running Route:


I arrived at the reporting Point around 4:30am, and already the place was packed with tons of runners warming up and going for top glory at the 21KM Competitive Category.

At 515am, all runners in the 21KM competitive and Non-competitive, slowly made their way to the starting point, with the Competitive category running first at 530am. And we started 30mins later.

The whole journey from the Start to Finish was something which I guess I would never forget... Running the whole journey with your best camp buddies, eoncouraging each other along the way, suffer together, laugh together, joking and making a fool of ourselves along the way...And enjoy the glory of eaching the finish line together... The feeling of it was just overwhelming...

Though the physical pain of my poor legs would momentarily take me back to reality, but if I was to be given another chance to choose the outcome of today, I would still go for the run.

Tomorrow is my first day at work!! HAHA! So excited about it!! HAHA!!! Can't wait for tomorrow to come... Ok! I'm going to bathe den sleep...else tomorrow I won't be in top condition for work haha!!!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I just hope that whatever happened to you in the past, I just hope that you would stop re-living in the past, and look forward to the future and towards your dreams and hopes. But rather, most importantly, see and realised the Life lessons hidden behind all the things you've been through.

It is because of these lessons that made you who you are, what you are and where you are today. Though you might not wanna go through what you've been through, if you were given a chance. But I just want you to know that you can see the lessons hidden behind these shit, accept it and understand it...

Dead Silence

In the sleepy town of Raven's Fair, there is a ghost story about Mary Shaw, a ventriloquist whose ambition was to make the perfect doll. Accused of murdering a young boy named Michael Ashen, Shaw was hunted down and killed by the vengeful townspeople, who cut her tongue out. They buried her along with her “children”, a hand-made collection of 101 ventriloquist puppets, including Billy (a reference to the puppet used in the Saw series, who has a cameo later in the film), Ursula, Gregory, and a clown puppet named Cornelius.

Since the lynching, Raven's Fair has been plagued by death. The ghastly dolls from Mary Shaw’s collection have gone missing from her grave, and over the decades, families are found gruesomely murdered with their tongues torn out and their jaws ripped open, and their bodies posed in family portrait positions. In the wake of these morbid events, ventriloquist dummies have become bad omens in the town, as they usually indicate that Mary Shaw is nearby, ready to tear out her next tongue. (It is revealed in the unrated version that the "stolen" tongues are added to a "collection" in her own mouth, allowing her to mimic the voices of the victims).

The film opens with scenes of Mary Shaw writing in her notebook and assembling Billy. Meanwhile, far from the pall of their hometown, newlyweds Jamie (Ryan Kwanten) and Lisa Ashen (Laura Regan), believe they have established a fresh start, when a ventriloquist dummy, who later turns out to be Billy, is mysteriously delivered to their doorstep. Subsequently, Jamie returns home from an night out, only to find Lisa viciously murdered, with her jaw torn open and her tongue ripped out. Jamie reluctantly returns to Raven's Fair for the funeral, intent on unraveling the mystery of her death while trying to clear his name in his wife's murder.

After a fruitless meeting with his wheelchair-bound father (Bob Gunton) and his father’s young bride Ella (Amber Valletta), Jamie remains determined to delve into the town’s bloody past in an attempt to learn the identity and motives of his wife's killer. As he learns of the legend of Mary Shaw, the ventriloquist who lived and performed at the Guignol Theater (a reference to the Grand Guignol, the legendary shock-theater Paris playhouse) decades ago, Jamie uncovers the origins of the Mary Shaw curse. (See the Poem section of the article.)

With the skeptical Detective Jim Lipton (Donnie Wahlberg) not far behind, Jamie investigates the now-dilapidated Guignol Theater, the very place where Michael Ashen embarrassed her by announcing that he could see her lips moving during one of her performances. As Jamie and Lipton search her attic living quarters, they find Michael's corpse, strung up like a marionette, along with the 100 missing dolls, which gradually come to life and look over at a rocking chair next to their display cases (as a sidenote, when Jamie and Jim walk towards the rocking chair, there is a support beam with Jigsaw's doll sitting propped-up against the bottom). As Shaw begins communicating through the clown puppet Cornelius, which is sitting in the rocking chair, Jamie is horrified to learn that his wife was killed because she had an Ashen "growing inside of her."

With that revelation, Cornelius begins laughing wickedly, and each of the dolls' faces distort as Mary attempts to use each of them against Jamie and Lipton, who realize that all 101 dolls must be destroyed to prevent Mary from acting through them. The two men ignite the large storage casing holding the puppets, effectively destroying 100 of them, while the last puppet, Billy, remains in someone else's possession. As the two men escape the blazing theater, with Mary Shaw in hot pursuit, the catwalk along which they are running collapses. As he involuntarily screams, Lipton is killed in mid-fall by Shaw, while Jamie is sent plunging into the water below the theater.

Jamie realizes that Billy is the only remaining doll, and that the only way to rid the town of Mary Shaw is to destroy him. He goes to Henry Walken, the mortician with whom he had left Billy, only to discover that Shaw had killed him and that Billy was taken much earlier. After Walken's distraught wife says that Jaime's father took the doll (which seems impossible since he is an invalid), Jamie returns to his father's house to destroy Billy. As he arrives, Mary Shaw reappears, but is forced to retreat when Jamie throws Billy, "the last puppet", into the fireplace. As she is forced back into the shadows, Jamie finds his wheelchair-bound father sitting, staring blankly into space. As he approaches him, Jamie is horrified to find that his father is dead, his entire back torn out and replaced with a wooden shaft used in ventriloquist dummies. As Jamie realizes that his young stepmother was always at his father's side, she suddenly appears next to him; Ella is in fact the perfect doll that Mary Shaw strove to make, and had been using the elder Ashen's corpse as a puppet to lure Jamie. (It should be noted that the deleted scenes depict Ella as an actual person who actually married Mr. Ashen. After being assaulted by him, she is visited by Mary Shaw's ghost. Ella is prompted to go to the graveyard and dig up Billy, when Mary Shaw possesses her body). Ella then says "Now, who's the dummy?" and lightning flashes in the sky, briefly showing the ghostly Mary Shaw behind her disguise, who tears out Jamie's tongue and jaw as he screams "No!" The closing shot shows Mary Shaw's puppet book with pictures of Jamie, Detective Lipton, and his family as dolls. As the camera zooms away from the book, Jamie recites the poem in voiceover and when he is done, Mary Shaw closes the book and the credits begin to roll.

After watching this movie, I personally feel that it's not THAT Scary... only very little parts are scary, due to the fact that too much of the "SCARY" parts were too expected... But all in all, I give it 3 outta 5 stars.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I know that you were jealous when u know I was going to the movies with her... Though u denied it... But i know, I can sense it... Cuz I just know you way too well le...

My new job will be at this company called: Academy Video Pte Ltd. Have a look at it.

It's a thing that I've never been in contact before. And I really have to thank the company for giving me this chance to learn video editing and photo-imaging. I promise myself I'll strive every hard and do very well!! YEAH!

I'll be commencing work on Monday 10:30am. But I'll start out PT first... Cause I'm still serving NS, so by law they can't employ me as Full Time. So they are gonna pay me $10/Hr [GOOD PAY!]
Then when I ORD, I'll sign a contract with them. FT pay is roughly $1.6K - $1.7K + COMM of about 2-4%. And on 3 months probation. Still, I'm not worried about the probation period at all. Because I'll prove to myself that I'll strive hard to craft out a career!

After the interview... I went down to town to slack while waiting for Hui. I was so happy when I received a call from them, that they're employing me, that I phoned virtually everyone I know and let the whole world know haha!!! [I MUST BE MAD =X]

Went to Compass Point, Sengkang with Hui. Had a small meal at MOS burger. My treat haha! Was so happy haha!!! But I apologised to her for what I said last night. Didn't meant to agitate her at all... Didn't know that things were like that... Sorry sorry...

Walk walk see see around at Compass Point... Companied her to buy a kettle then sent her back home...

Then, after that I took bus 72 back to Tampines and met up with Bernice, Linda and Jane, where we headed down to Cafe Cartel for some light snacks. It was really wacky haha! We joked, laughed, did silly things and shared "Ghost" stories... So fun!!!

An extract from someone's blog:
i have this feeling that after a big round i will still go back t0 him.
the treatment he gave me can never compare to anyone.
the smile he put on my face..
mayb one day when i chose him, he might be taken..
who kn0ws..

Even if you're now attached to someone, I'll still be the "Shelter" which you can always depend on, like how you've depended on for the past 4 years...

Freedom is Near...

Yes!! Finally after two longGGG years, the light at the end of the tunnel is within reach!! I'm GONNA ORD!!! With only 14 more days to go haha!!!

But, with that, another problem is lurking at the back of my mind. What kinda jobs am I going be looking for?!

I need to look for jobs!!! Anyone got any lobang?!

Emotions

Went to visit this particular deceased person, Andrew, this morning. Actually, I don't know him at all. If it wasn't for Hui & Jeffrey, I won't never know that there was such a person in existence. Original plan was Mama Juan, Hui, Jeffrey, Yong Chuan, Chin Mei & Kevin, I was a "Last minute" insertion. Or more appropriate, I was just merely tagging along. Simply because I don't know Andrew at all... But as a form of respect to the deceased, I offered him joss sticks and paper money...

Due to some matters, Jeffrey couldn't make it, and Mama Juan was called back for work last night...

It was emotional for Hui... How she misses him... The lost of someone so dear to her... Her tears just uncontrollably rolled down her cheeks, the moment she saw his photo on the rack. His name Zhang Zhi Yuan. A very poetic name.

After offerings & burning of paper money, Yong Chuan drove us to Junction 8, and he has to rush off to elsewhere. Thanks dude!!! Thanks for all the trouble... Then, we had lunch at Subway... It was very fulfiling! haha!! Never know that both Kevin & Chi Mei have a tooth for excellent food. haha! Alright...

Sorry Chin Mei, actually wanted to company u to Orchard. But because Hui Hui was just too emotional today, and I dun wan to leave her all alone... Sorry...Really sorry...

Then. I just bring Hui to shop around, just walk walk,see see, look look. Let her emotions simmer down. I kept buying food to eat with her. HAHA!!! We ate until we can't eat anymore... hahaha!!! Then, she went to City Hall to met her Mr. E...

Thanks for having a wonderful day! Thanks!

Sidenote: I think I'm slowly drawn to Chin Mei, but maybe it's not Love but because she's just too similar to me... From behaviour to interest...Almost everything is similar to me...

Cool, Cloudy, Rainy Day

My wish came through haha!!! Last night, I prayed that today's weather would be cloudy, cooling and slight drizzling. And it all came true haha!!! So happy!! Cuz at night I need to go to Tian Guo [ At Sengkang], to attend religious night lessons. So, I'll be wearing formal the whole day. And frankly speaking, I hate wearing formal, cause I'll keep sweating & sweating... And end up.. I stink!

But luckily, today's weather was darn PERFECT! I met up with my friend at 12:15pm, then we made our way down to Orchard Road. We alighted at Somerset Station and headed down to The Hereen. My actualy intention was to buy this black cardigan from this particular shop called [garc.on], because they sell very nice-woven cardigan, which are excellent for formal/smart wear. I fell in love with it, when I saw it 2 weeks ago while window shopping...

I bought it immediately and worn it... And guess what... while walking down the street of Orchard Road, people kept staring at me, as if I'm an Alien... -.-"'

As usual, some small incidents would happen, like people purposely bump into you even though you've given way to them... And they don't even apologise to you when they bump into you... Instead, you are the one apologising to them. [Argh!! What's wrong with Singaporeans nowadays?!]

If I got a chance...I'll take a photo of what I worn today... haha!!!

Hungry Ghost Festival

CHINESE HUNGRY GHOST FESTIVAL [LUNAR CALENDAR 7TH MONTH]

Yes! This is the time of the month where the Chinese believe that the Hell Gate will be wide open and all spirits are free to roam the Earth for one whole month. It's also believe that your close relatives who have passed away would take advantage of this chance to pay a visit to the people they care about most.

During this month, the Chinese will make a lot of offerings such as paper money, food, drinks, Gold & Sliver Mountain, Houses, blah blah blah, things to those "Good Brothers" & "Good sisters", praying that for the upcoming year, they will have better luck, better health and better fortune. Also, to ensure that those lonely "Brothers & Sisters" are not alone, organisers host several stages for performances, A.K.A [Ge-Tai, or Gor Dai], as it's commonly known in Chinese. It's another form of offerings to the death by entertaining them with songs, dances and performances.

While others would take this opportunity to organise mass auction dinner events to raise donation money for Charity. And normally, the items put up for auctions are stuffs donated by other wealthy people.

As for me.... HAHA!! I began telling stories about strange encounters in Pulau Tekong. And well, that really freak my colleagues out, who was unable to sleep soundly the whole night. [GOSH! I felt SO BAD....]

This week went by breezely & fast. In a turn of an eye, it's already the weekends, and it's one week closer to my ORD!!! haha!!! With only 18 days left till I get my PINK IC Card... I just can't wait for it to happen... But first, I have to follow my plans, those that I set out in the beginning of the Year...

...Sorry....

J or B....
I'm not sure whether you'll see this entry or not... I love you. I really really do. Knowing that I can never be with you...I can't be so selfish, standing in your way to finding a better guy.

Take care of yourself OK?! Yao ting hao wor?! Cannot be stubborn liaoZ... Zhi dao mah?!
The weather is gonna get colder & colder as the day goes by. Do drink more herbal tea or chicken essence, cause you've a weak body. At night, sleep earlier, don't stay up too late, else you won't have enough energy the next day...And wear more clothes when you're sleeping, don't catch a cold understand?!

Also, don't climb high and climb low, you know what I'm referring to... Dong mahZ?!

Then, at night if you go drink.... Don't drink too much...It's bad for your health... Zhi dao mahZ? Ting dao mahZ?

For all the words that I've said to you... I could only say: "I'm sorry....."

我只能永远读着对白
读着我给你的伤害
我原谅不了我
就请你当作我已不在
我睁开双眼看着空白
忘记你对我的期待
读完了依赖
我很快就离开

Now... I just wanna be left alone...

WHY?! WHY?! WHY?!

Why must you let me see the things which I don't wanna see... Why must it all smashed into me all at once?! Why must you pierce all the knives into my delicate heart?! Do you know that it has always been bleeding ever since I know you?! Why do you have to bring one more person with you?! And let me see all those things... WHY!!! WHY!!!!!!! WHY!!!!!!!!!!

I could never forget the sight I have seen with my own eyes... Those images just kept flashing across my mind every time I close my eyes... Just kept flashing... Flashing...

Right now only this song could explain the feelings within me...

爱我的人和我爱的人
Singer：游鸿明 Chris Yu



盼不到我爱的人
我知道我愿意再等
疼不了爱我的人
片刻柔情它骗不了人
我不是无情的人
却将你伤的最深
我不忍我不能
别再认真忘了我的人

离不开我爱的人
我知道爱需要缘分
放不下爱我的人
因为了解他多么认真
为什么最真的心
碰不到最好的人
我不问我不能
拥在怀中直到他变冷

爱我的人为我痴心不悔
我却为我爱的人甘心一生伤悲
在乎的人始终不对
谁对谁不必虚伪
爱我的人为我付出一切
我却为我爱的人流泪狂乱心碎
爱与被爱同样受罪
为什么不懂拒绝痴情的包围

Extracts from [Secret] Movie

Here's the Video Clip on the Piano battle between Jay Chou & Yu Hao:



This is one of the highlights of the Movie. I watched it last night.... After the performance, I think everyone in the cinema watching were clapping as well haha!!!

ENJOY!!!

Secret

不能说的.秘密 [Secret]

Went to see this show, directed by Jay Chou. Was a little bit late, thus i missed the first 10mins or so. But that doesn't really affected me understanding the whole story.

The story is between Ye Xiang Lun [Jay] & Lu Xiao Yu [Rain] meeting each other because of their passion and love for music and piano. From then on, their lives were ever twisted together...

A beautiful piano score unraveled a true love.

"This is a secret." An opening sentence between Jay & Rain, unfolded a love journey. Jay was a talented Piano player, and from a Single Parent family, he attended at a Music School his father [ Anthony Wong] teaches. The movie unfolds when Jay heard a piano score, unheard of before, being played. Following the music, he arrived at the Old Piano Practice Room, and saw a girl [Rain] inside. But there's a secret within Rain that she could never bare to tell Jay...

One promise and an unforgettable mistake, caused Rain to forever vanish from Jay's Life. His life spiraled downwards ever since. His father tried to pull him back together again. But just as Jay's life was beginning to return back to normal, the "Secret" which Rain wanted to stay buried, resurfaced again, and unveiled an unbelievable truth...

The movie is full of Jay's famous "Black Humor". The female lead actress too had many moments of these "Black Humor". But the 2nd main focus of this movie, besides the love story, is Jay Chou's piano skills. It was just breath-taking. No! No! Not just breath-taking, but just simply out-of-this-world!!!!

You really have to see it, in order to believe it! I rate it 7.5/10. A movie not just for Jay fans, but for those people who love a simple love story...

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Afternoon, I met up with Chin Mei and went to Esplanade's Library. The library was just simply SPLENDID! The whole ambiance of the place was just so musical. The moment I walked in, I felt totally relaxed... Though I was only there for roughly about 2 hours. But it was more than enough to make me wanna go back there again haha!!!

For the first time in my life, I've met someone who have almost the same interests as me. From the food I like to the book genres I like to read, from my favorite hobbies, to my passions... I've never met someone who is almost like me... It's like I'm looking at myself... The feeling is just so ecstatic! I can't describe this kinda feeling at all...

Anyway, it was really fun hanging out with Chin Mei. We have so much to talk about haha!!

2007 National Day

Took a bit of dinner before I rushed out of house. Panting and sweating like a PIG... ARGH!! I hate this kinda weather...

Seriously, when I arrived at City Hall, it was bloody JAMMED PACKED WITH PEOPLE! But luckily my friends meet up at Plaza Singapura.

Then, we took a bus to Suntec and did some shopping there. Because the main focus on the night was the Fireworks, so there wasn't much people doing shopping. HAHA! So nice... We had a great time window shopping.

Here's a short clip of the fireworks:


Then, after which it's the start of the HUMAN JAM again!!! So we decided to walk to Bugis and take a bus from there to Hougang.

Here's a photo we took while walking:

Hmmmm....what's that over there?!

Taken on the bus:

AH! Ghost FACE!


Photo-whoring again! haha!!!

Now, then I know that jeffrey has motion-sickness...Poor guy... sigh...
Then the road that Hui always walk back home after taking a bus is SO u-lu and so dark.

Brand new PSP

Yes you heard it! The rumors are true, the speculations are accurate & the truth is about to be unveiled!

BRAND NEW PSP is coming to Town guys!!!

The white PSP [left] is the slimmer, newer & better PSP, compare to the black PSP [right]

Sony finally announced the long-rumored redesigned Sony PSP during its E3 2007 press conference. A recent patent update sparked speculation that the new PSP would have a swivel screen and mobile phone capabilities, but Sony Computer Entertainment president Kaz Hirai revealed a more modest PSP redesign at E3. The new “enhanced-design” PSP is a smaller and slimmer version of the original, with a third less weight and about four-fifths the thickness. Sony plans to phase out the current PSP design and replace it with the new model by September.

The new weight is immediately noticeable as soon as you hold the PSP in your hand. It's so light that you might think that it's missing a battery or doesn't have a UMD inside. Sony was able to slim down the battery size while maintaining the system's 5-hour battery life by decreasing the power draw of the unit. You'll be able to use old batteries from the original PSP to double playing time, but the standard battery cover won't be able to fit over it. Sony will offer a high-capacity power kit that will come with its own PSP cover to fit over the larger battery.

The difference is really slight, but several GameSpot editors have noticed that the d-pad and buttons on the new PSP provide a little more tactile feedback for a better overall feel. Other changes we noticed include a spring-less UMD retention mechanism and new speaker holes just above the d-pad and button areas. The remote jack has changed--headphones will still work with the regular headphone output, but new systems will ship with a new headphone/remote unit to fit the new remote jack. The memory stick slot remains on the left side--shifted over a bit, but the Wi-Fi switch has moved from the left side of the system all the way to the top of the unit where it's far more difficult to hit accidentally.

The 4.3-inch display remains the same, but the new unit will now include a video output that will let the PSP to output gameplay, movies, and photos to a TV display. The component cable we saw also had audio connectors to offer complete AV connectivity. The actual composite, s-video, component, and D-Terminal (Japan) cables will be sold separately, price TBD. The PSP we tested was able to play back a Spider-Man 2 movie clip at 640x480. The video on the big screen looked sharp with minimal loss.

The new PSP is available in piano black, ice silver, and, for a limited time, ceramic white.

Sony has doubled the built-in memory from 32MB to 64MB, and the new PSP will also be able to speed up game load times by storing UMD data in temporary memory. The new PSP will also be able to recharge over the USB data connection.

The redesigned Piano Black PSP will make its way into the basic $169 Core pack this September. Sony will offer a $199 Ice Silver PSP in a new Daxter Entertainment Pack that includes Daxter, Family Guy, The Freakin' Sweet Collection on UMD, and a 1GB Memory Stick Pro Duo. Star Wars fans can wait an extra month to pick up a Star Wars Battlefront PSP Entertainment Pack on October, 9th. The limited edition package includes a copy of Star Wars Battlefront: Renegade Squadron and a ceramic-white PSP with an image of Darth Vader silk-screened on the back battery cover. Sony currently has no plans to release a ceramic white unit after the Star Wars edition sells out, but that can always change.

So free!!!

haha!!! This week really just breezed by lor...Nothing to do in Office, PLAY GAME HAHA!!! Lucky i got my PSP to company me...

Tuesday night had a really nice and long chat with Chin Mei. Found that both me and her have many things in common haha!!! And she's a very mature and independent girl, thought she's only 20...

She will give guys a feeling to protect her. But anyway, we're just friends now... Whatever might happen in future I leave it to Fate and Cupid to decide... haha!!!

NDP coming soon!! WISHES ALL SINGAPOREANS a HAPPY 42nd NATIONAL DAY!!!

Journey to the [WEST]

Woke up a bit early today around 9:30am. Because I'm going on a Journey to the [WEST] Yeah! I'm heading down to Little India, with Hui, to explore that little town filled with mysteries and wonders.

I was so unlucky when I left my house, missed Bus 293 then at the Interchange missed Bus 72. Argh!! So unlucky! And the bus driver was moving so so so SLOW... Argh! Really waste my time... But luckily Hui waited for me. First time late when I meet someone sigh... So paiseh... Argh... Freaking bus & driver...

Nevermind! We took the Northeast line down to Little India and my gosh! I was greeted by that familiar "Indian" smell the moment I stepped out from the train at Little India. haha!!! So much for a [Welcome to Little India]...

But I can tell you... Little India is really a wonderful place! So much nice food, clothes and stuffs. Alot of things are being sold there that can't really be found anywhere in the normal HDB estate we live in. Like Indian-Flower rings, special fragrant sticks, accessories that are very India-flavored. Hui brought along her Olympus DSLR & started photo-whoring, while I go around exploring all the little details of Little India. It was so fun, until we heard growling from our tummies... We were HUNGRY.

Hui had black pepper mock pork chop, while I had mock fish & chip. Not too bad... Quite nice... Then from there, we walked to Bugis, and along the way Hui took quite a few photos, all very nice haha!!! Only got a bit from her... The rest are still in the Oven, so GUYS! have to wait for our Master... I promise that it'll be excellent haha!!!

Then, our final destination was Orchard, where we went to meet up with Hui's friend Chin Mei. A very sweet girl, and very well-mannered. We did some shopping, I helped Mei to look for some new clothes and help Hui to look out for a full body tube top...

Mei brought a grey overall. NICE! And a pair of shorts... And Hui told me that today was the first time, that Chin Mei tried on clothes without much resistance... I was like "OH!? Really ahZ?! haha!! That's cool!!!"

But... all fun has too end somewhere... Mei went off to help her dad's business, so both of us went over to PS's PastaMania for dinner... Both of us virtually poured the whole bottle of cheese over our pasta haha!!! WE'RE CHEESE-MANIA!!! Then, we went home...

So tired... But very fun...

Some photos from our trip to Little India:

I'm free!!!!

Finally! After battling with that irritating throat Virus Battalion, my White Blood Cell Brigade has finally emerged victorious! Of cause, that's impossible without reinforcements from our dear anti-biotic. Though we've lost many comrades due to this bloody battle, but their sacrifices and deaths will not be forgotten. As I've summarised all of them [Sorry, too many "names" to put down] in here....

"HEROES OF THE THROAT VIRUS BATTLE"

OK! Enough of craps... The sore throat has really irritated me alot! Can't speak too loud or too forcefully. Can't eat alot of things like spicy, curry, fried / deep fried, durians.... Oh yeah! Talking about Durians... My dad bought durians 2 days ago, and I CAN'T EAT AT ALL!!! All I could do, was to just watch my whole family slowly devoured all three durians.... *SOB* *SOB* I'm such a poor thing....

Back in Camp, I was so "ENG" that I was virtually playing my PSP in my office all day long. But I felt so bad and so uncomfortable, to be sitting in the office the WHOLE DAY and doing nothing... The feeling was really sucky...

Well, anyway... I just hope that my friend can go out tomorrow, then at least I have some programs tomorrow haha!! Ok now... I'm going back to my stuffs... Gotta start job hunting....
