Oooo.. Shiny...

Since the start of my holidays I've been 'busying' myself with a shiny new game by Koei. No, I'm not talking about Gundam Musou, though I do wish it. I'm talking about Musou Orochi. I managed to get my hands on a copy and have been playing it quite a ways. I'm still having trouble with getting Sun Ce's Personal Item. Grrrr...

So what's Musou Orochi about? Its about a megalomaniac who thought it'll be fun to bring together the most chaotic periods of Chinese and Japanese history and let them him and each other battle on their home ground. The result? A messy, just-kill-everybody war with no regard to strategy. Between the 4 stories there is not much of a relation between them. I would LOVE to play on Orochi's side but not that there is... sigh... v_v

Since there is a mix of the sengoku and sangoku characters in the different stories, there is bound to be new relations and pairings. Like in the Wu story, Hanzo Hattori and Tokugawa groups together with Sun Ce to bring back the Sun family and defeat the person who brought them to this forsaken land. In the Wei story, Mitsunari pairs up with Cao Pi. In Shu... we get to see Zhao Yun tied up. *glee*

The list is endless! Just so that Mitsunari and Cao Pi is too irresistable, I did a little fanart on them!

Title: Wait a sec...
aka: The real reason why Mitsunari brought Cao Pi to the onsen
Characters: Ishida Mitsunari (right) and Cao Pi (left)
Rating: M18 - NOT WORKSAFE!!!
Notes: After the fight with Orochi, Cao Pi was feeling left out with all the people flocking around his father instead of him, the real architect in the downfall of Orochi. To lift his spirits, Mistunari brought him to a onsen. It did help to loosen some of Cao Pi's anal retentive behaviour. Well with the help of a few nice strong sake (which surprizingly survive the transition between worlds) Cao Pi was putty in his hands.

POTC madness!!!!

Watched POTC 3 yesterday. Funny was funny but it didn't do it for me. Unless you like Johnny Depp in various state of minds and undress, this show's for you. The show is rather like spidey but worse. Too many things happening at once, too many things left not shown in the movie and the script was not that fun. Humour was left to slapstick goodness and overused scenes.

To give an overall view:

The pirate world is being wiped out. The only way to save them against the East India Company and the Flying Dutchman alliance is to bring all the Pirate Lords together to fight. The only problem: Captain Jack's one of them and he's now in Davey's Jones Locker which is at World's End. The journey takes them to Singapore, to one of the poles, down a HUMONGOUS waterfall and a nice sea water bath underwater with the ship.

We get to see Will trying to act gentlemanly, James Norrington in a confused state, Elizabeth in only a bathrobe, Jack topless, Jack tattoed, Jack brainless, Jack bringing a new meaning to the movie Multiplicity and Jack acting noble. Barbossa being Barbossa, his actions is the only one that remains straight and true.

Oh yeah, You get to see the Great Sotong King in a bucket...

Last but not least, Stone crabs FTW!!!

Update on my grandmother P2

Alhamdulillah. I saw her just now. She's looking better, with all the energy to move. Fact is that she's not well enough to be moving around, I mean walking around but she's like insisting that she MOVES. I mean like she tried to get off the bed like 5 times the 20 minutes I was standing beside her. But still at least she's fine.

My grandmother is currently feeling very confused. She doesn't speak much but I can guess most of the questions are like: Where am I?; Why am I here?; How did I get here? etc. So that's the reason for her agitated state. So much so that we had to tie her to the bed. Sigh as much as I don't like it, but moving around is not good for her still unstable brain. Other than that, she good. Slightly feverish yesterday but her grip's still very strong. My little sister can testify to that.

Though I'm still unsure on how you take care of stroke patients. How do you feed her? She's still being fed by the tube. But when she gets back how? We have a maid to help us but recognition is almost gone. Motor skill are there but weaker than ever. Sigh... Help me. Dear God, Help me have the strength to support my family during this period. Amin.

Matching you and you Daemon

The Golden Compass is a book which I've read before. Its part of a 3 book series about 3 instruments. I've forgotten the story but after looking at the movie site, I really wanna re-read the series! XD

Here's the link! Click here

On the site, there's also a quiz where it mathes you to your daemon. My initial daemon is the Lion. I think I did something wrong somewhere but hey! Do me a favour please and help with the accuracy to my daemon!

Update on my grandmother.

I've just returned from the Hospital. Tan Tock Seng Hospital sure has the facilities for the elderly folk and my grandmother is a returning guest. She's in the ICU right now. Hopefully she'll be okay.

She suffered a stroke this morning but was only discovered by the maid only about 30 mins later. This was because she was in the loo (coz she has this thing about privacy even though she has her dementia). The paramedics came but the morning jam prevented them to do much for her.

The stroke, a bleeding 3 cm clot in the left side of her brain, left her right upper body paralysed. I cannot see her smile again. She has beautiful teeth at 69. No dentures, no cavities. Plain beautiful teeth and a smile that strikes my heart with joy. When I was there, her grip on her left was still strong. She murmured something, but none of us could understand her. I just stood there holding her hand. With my voice like this, I couldn't say much.

We left her with my aunt watching over her. I hope she gets better.

Pray for her.

Allahuakbar! My Grandmother just collasped! The ambulance just came to take her away a few minutes ago. My aunt, uncle and brother are there. I'm waiting for my lil sister now.

Pray for her...

Manga, Sunday morning and Hotdogs!

I couldn't sleep last night. Well I did have my sleep. For about the 2 hours I was downstairs, I slept during the extra time of the game between Chelsea and Man U. Yes, the game was that boring with both side playing the cautious game of "Oh, throw far then might get to the other team! So kick close..." Bleargh...

Anyway, after waking up, I was (not) surprisingly awake. (Cmon! After having slept about 15 hours the DAY before). So then I spent my time reading the manga I rented from the Mage shop. The selection was as diverse as you get singlish language. I got Legal Drug vol 3, Kitchen Princess vol 2, Esperanca vol 1, Finders series vol 1 and 2, Boku no Koe vol 1 and Hot Gimmick vol 1. AND finally a novel. Okay okay so I was bored. Then again I managed to finish all BUT the novel last night and managed to catch like 20 mins of sleep before being woken up for the morning. (The Finders Series is the best of the lot! X3~~~)

And so after a morning meeting with the peeps from T.Arts, we went bowling~!!! Okay so my legs still hurt from the PT on Friday, but I needed to move them. What better way then lots of walking and bowling! My score was not great after not playin for so long but heck, its better than getting the gutter all the time! Huijie came about somewhere in the 2nd game. After that we (that is, Jie and I) went off on our own.

We went around to rekki for the price of the a game Jie wanted. I was kinda stuck with drawing on one of the wacom tablets on display. So fun!!! XDDD I managed to draw something but colouring just escapes me... *cries* I need lots of help and practice... *cries somemore*

Dinner was a GREAT affair! We had a hot dog meal each. I ordered mine a regular Chicago and he ordered a LARGE Texas Ted. Mine was so big I could hardly get it all done. Huijie's was so much bigger but he finished it off just like that! Well, guys DO have larger appetites... >_> Here's some pictures of the day!


Nice shop, nice person. The potato salad was not that good though...


Yummy... Dinner... XD
