乒乓圆

最近我在追着一部新加坡连续剧叫 “乒乓圆." 我觉得这部连续剧还蛮不错的。 里面的演员大多数都是年轻人。 故事围绕在乒乓，友情，跟爱情。 可是，让我觉得最有趣的是戏里面的四角恋。

麦晓芬 (右上角)

贺家军 (左下角)

张姿宜 (右下角)

像一个四方形，

何胜武 喜欢 麦晓芬 喜欢 贺家军 喜欢 张姿宜 喜欢 何胜武 >.<''

故事到最后会变成怎样呢？我也好期待。。

昨天看了乒乓圆的大结局过后，觉得故事的结尾有点难过。男主角，阿武胜了，获得乒乓公开赛的冠军，但他一点也不开心。在胜利的过程发生了太多误会。 看完了结局觉得他有点可怜。他妈妈说过，"Because of competitiveness, you will lose the happiness in playing."

有看这部连续剧的，你们觉得呢？ 看完的感受如何？

Clueless Future

Yesterday, I finally received my OPT card. It is really time to get serious and start looking for a decent job. These past few months while waiting for the card, I worked part-time in a restaurant. In the meantime, I applied for quite a number of jobs but haven't really got any luck. Is the unemployment rate really affecting US non-citizens? Or am I not trying really hard?

I graduated with a Masters degree but I have yet to get any real office experience. I really regret that I did not get any internships during my schooling time. Now, I am experience-less, and fresh out of the oven. What can be worse than this? Oh well, I guess I cannot see my destination down this long stretch of road for now. Hope luck and time can help me.

MyBrute - Motion Twins' latest creation

In early April this year, Motion Twin created an online browser action game called 'MyBrute', which has gained the popularity of many users within a few weeks of launch. There are no user actions, no money, and the avatar depends entirely on a random system.

When I first played it, I found it quite interesting as you have the ability to customize your Brute, which is kinda random too. After that, you can enter the arena to fight against other Brutes. Your Brute skills and items are totally random and you have a limit of 3 fights per day (I am not sure if there is a limit increase or any specials because I am only Level 5). When you have selected your opponent, the fight will start. The battle is random and it is quite an eye candy watching the flash characters go at each other. At the end, you gain experience whether you win or not and gain levels with new skills and items.

All in all, if you are interested you can check it out at MyBrute. Good luck and have fun pummeling each other!

Luna Online

Greetings all, let's welcome the latest MMORPG in North America, Luna Online!

Yesterday, I received an email regarding their open Beta which I am kind of excited. I downloaded the client, installed the game, and are waiting now for 7pm EST for the server to start. For those of you who didn't know, Luna Online is a cute game which is already quite popular in the Asian market. It is a free-to-play Korean MMORPG (Koreans are really good at making MMOs, aren't they? ^_^) with chibi characters that can fight, grind, complete quests, go on dates, and even own a family farm.
Sounds interesting?

Check the video below and their homepage for more information regarding this game. In the meantime, I will check out the game for myself and will update with more pictures and other info. Have fun guys!

Blackle?!

Today, I stumbled across a website called Blackle which I found to be the same as Google, except the colors are opposite. I did more research and here's what I found.

On January 2007, a blogger wrote an article saying that Google can help save a lot of energy if their homepage background color is black instead of white. The color white uses up more energy (especially for CRT monitors). So by using black, a significant amount of energy can be saved.

This idea is pretty interesting but honestly, who would have the initiative to use Blackle instead of Google. I mean, Google has already been a household name. Even I set Google as my homepage whenever I start IE. So the question boils down to one, "Will the energy-saving Blackle be successful?" Only time will tell.

A Blog is Born

Hi all, welcome to my blog. I don't know this is blog number ?? for me as I have created many many blogs but sadly, not even one that I managed to upkeep. I wonder does any of you face the same problem too?

Maybe a blog is like a toy. A favorite toy that you wanted to play with all day. But once you grow tired of it, you tend to cast it aside. Well, I really hope that I can show some commitment to this blog and of course I need the support of other people out there like you readers.

In this blog, I will try to blog a wide range of topics that I hope are interesting in the world out there. I hope you guys will like it. And lastly, I will definitely try my best to upkeep and make this blog as interesting as possible.
