From the crazy tsunami in Southeast Asia, numerous crazy sea creatures have been discovered near the wreckage. I wonder if any of them are tasty!

Not sure how long they’d be here this time around, but arrived at 8:13 pm with lotsa goodies for lil Mei. Been busy this past week preparing for their arrival with moving the furniture and misc stuff from the old house to new. I personally am hoping for a new TV =)

We’re given the Core I Assignment today and it asks us to write about the memoir as expected. Professor Cordani wasn’t exactly specific about the assignment except — “write a good story.” It’s due on July 5th, no extensions.
Interesting thing though, at the end of yesterday’s discussion, he asked us to write about […]

Damn! What a bloody movie!
Simple in execution ~ Sin City is a cross between Kill Bill and Schindler’s List (only b&w, and the bloody/cruel aspect of it — the story can’t really compare to each other) It won’t win any awards, and it’s not exactly memorable, but it’s a roller coaster of […]

Summary:
We went over what we read yesterday, and jumped all over the place talking about how to write well. I think this will be the topic for the next few lectures — writing well. Aristotle’s Triangle of Rhetoric is introduced with the ethods, pathos, and logos as the three interlocking sides of writing. […]

Today we went over the syllabus and what’s expected of us. Mostly standard stuff until Professor Cordani started talking about how to reach your audience and grab their attention with the writing. For the class, there are 4 core […]

Ashish calls me up while I was in lab yesterday afternoon talking about a small gathering of classmates from high school. Since I’ve been out of contact with almost all of them except on occasions, I gladly accepted the invitation and arrived at Waterford Lake Barnes a& Noble to check out where my brillant […]

Nicole Kidman is hot. 38 years old, and she looks not a year over 25. What’s up with that?! How much makeup is on her?! How many plastic surgeries?! Jesus jumpin jupiter! How the hell can she looks so hot still?!
It doesn’t make sense! It’s like …. […]

I took my DAT yesterday morning after not sleeping the entire night. Still, I wasn’t sleepy because of epineprhine pumping through my system! PUMPED I was! Time was flying by during the exam, and half way through the first part, my stomach started to hurt like a madman.
Yup, the urge to let […]

It’s down to the final stretch now. 7 days left until my DAT test. So, there won’t be anything new on the blog until after. Well… that’s probably not true. It’s always relaxing to type whatever the hell I’m doing as a future reference.

From the site that brought you, “Where is Padame“, “Bobble bubble and Bike,” “You touch my Tra-la-la“, and “Requiem for Homer“, I became fasciated at the background music for Requiem for Homer and went to look up the soundtrack for Requiem for a Dream. From there, I discovered that it’s rated really high by […]

You’ve seen those commercials on food network — Italian Chefs are in the back, playing cards because ladies and gents are at home, eating 10 minute Bertolli ready-to-eat meals! I was interested, and picked up Shrimp, Scampi & Linguine for dinner tonight. Here’s the description –

This enticing dish is truly a garlic lover’s […]

I never noticed this prior to today for unknown reasons, but I’ve discovered that the larvae, even after I rip it in half, the head is still alive and moving. Remember in Aliens, at the end of the movie, the Queen rips Bishop in half, but the top half was still struggling? That’s […]

Basilisk is now licensed by Funimation. Per their request, all three fansubbing groups involved with the project has stopped their work on it: #Anime-Kraze, #iy4ever-fansubs, and #katana_fansubs
I think it’s good enough to buy once the releases come in!
