Phoenix Wright prequel?

I started playing Phoenix Wright 2 in early January this year and I've yet to finish the game! LOL. How shameful! I stopped playing the DS for awhile now and am picking the game from where I left off months ago. Gotta finish off this one quick.. there's still Part 3 and 4 waiting.. and what's this I hear about a rumoured prequel in the works with Miles Edgeworth in the lead role? Ooo.. I am looking forward to that! But first, can someone please tell me if A.A. did kill Juan in the final case of Justice For All?? I am stuck in the witness cross examination..

Now if you will excuse me, duty calls. I have to be back in the Courtroom to continue A.A's cross examination. LOL

Secretaries Week

I believe Secretaries Week falls next week? What's it got to do with me? Yeah exactly. But Jo from work has been constantly reminding me of the upcoming Secretaries Week. Over the past 2 weeks she has been picking up all the Secretaries Week luncheon promotion flyers faxed over to our office and dropping them on my desk. She recommended a luncheon at Times Square. Only RM46 per pax. Umm.. OK OK I get the hint. I will take my secretary out for luncheon next week.

Jo is my secretary's "neighbour" at work.. they sit side by side. Jo's boss is my neighbour cos our rooms are side by side though I have yet to get acquainted with her cos she is new and I don't socialise much at work. LOL :P

Little Sun

I've just added a music player to this blog. It's a pretty neat player that allows you to listen to all the songs that I've in my playlist.

The track you are currently listening to is the brand new "Little Sun (小太陽)" which was released sometime last week (.. or was it the week before?)

WOOHOOOOO!!!!! Ashin's book signing session!!

I am finally gonna get my Escape to Japan book signed by Ashin!!! :D :D :D

I just read news that both Ashin and Stone are gonna be at IMM on 27th April to sign copies of their respective books. Stone's book [titled "Baby, Let's Rock"] will be released on 9th April (Not gonna buy that.. not at all interested in Stone and Gougou's account of pre- and post-Little Stone's birth LOL though interestingly enough, the book even talks about when Little Stone was conceived while the couple were in Japan for a Coldplay concert.. err err.. too much information there :P)

Bonehead's Bank Holiday

What a long and gruelling week this has been! Files are mounting on my desk and there was a crisis the other day at work which thankfully was resolved before it exploded. I got an earful from the bank manager. Needless to say it wasn't pleasant but I am sure the other guy I was dealing with at the bank (the bank manager's subordinate) had it worse. Even the partner overseeing the file was not spared. LOL!

I was given a new file today and the pesky client insisted on meeting me tomorrow cos he works across the causeway and is only back in KL during the weekend. *grumble* *grumble*

I think I need a break from work.
You know I need a little break
To get away for a holiday
So I can see the sun
Cos in the sun they say it's fun
If you can get some
Well I could take a train or a boat or an aeroplane
Or I could steal a car
Cos in a car you can go far
It just depends on what kind of car you are
That song reminds me of "D'Yer Wanna Be A Spaceman?" that Ashin swiped for one of his song ^__^ (Oasis is afterall one of his fave band). I love this song! It's one of my fave Oasis b-side and these are my fave lines off the song that I am sure we all can relate to:
It's funny how your dreams changed as you're growing old
You don't wanna be no spaceman
You just want gold

April's fool!

Whilst I was in a meeting this morning with my colleague and a client early this morning, the fire alarm went off.. oh dang!!! Turned out to be a fire drill. Had to walk in my heels all the way down from Level 12 cos we weren't allowed to take the lift (my left knee almost gave way... LOL)

Rayne took me to Sungei Wang after work today to check out a shop that was selling custom made LED board. Now, I have asked numerous people but none knew where in KL to get a LED board made. Rayne's fren who's a TVXQ fan had her board made there. Turns out the guy running the place is a mega rip-off. He showed me a sample banner that he was currently working on which was not even as big as my Casey banner.. and it costs a whopping RM500!!! *faints*

Baby J buzzed me when I was still outside saying she had read on Ashin's blog that the Down To Earth tour was cancelled (WTH??!!).. only to find out that it's an April's Fool prank by Ashin. Cheeky monkey!! LOL

.... I am getting my increment this month!! hurray!! :D

Little Stone's first birthday

I just came across this video of Little Stone's first birthday. It's so funny!! For those of you who don't know, Little Stone just turned one last week. It's Chinese tradition that on the baby's first birthday, the parents would lay out several items and see which one the baby crawls up to first. Mom said I grabbed a pen on my first birthday...

In this video, Stone rounded up Little Stone's 4 cheeky uncles who each brought along items for Little Stone to pick (err.. mahjong tile??!! calculator?? Xbox controller?? What were the guys thinking?) It was so funny when Little Stone's uncles all got so excited and shouted so loud that the baby got scared 

In the end Little Stone went for Masa's typewriter.. so I guess Little Stone is gonna end up as a writer like his dad? :)

Nasty DT

Yen Lee sent me the link to this really funny video at YouTube last week. It was recorded by a fan at David Tao's Hong Kong concert last weekend, where DT played 3 nights at the Coliseum. In the video, DT had asked a fan to sing "Rain" then upon realising how high pitched her voice was, mimicked her and then pulled a really ugly face and went "I am very scared" in Cantonese.. what a meanie!!!

DT is in Singapore this weekend to promote his upcoming SG concert and according to Fei, tickets on sale today at the autograph session were sold on a buy 1 free 1 basis (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) WTH are ticket sales so bad? :P

Din Tai Fung

Had lunch at Din Tai Fung (鼎泰豐) today at The Gardens. I didn't realise until I had stepped into the restaurant that Kwong Hwee took me to the Singapore branch at The Paragon, Orchard Road about 2 years ago. Right outside the restaurant they had a huge board plastered with newspaper clippings of some of their famous patrons which include Leehom, Ang Lee, Chow Yun-Fat.. (I was too engrossed in watching the chefs making the Xiao Loong Baos I had forgotten to snap a pic of the Leehom and Ang Lee newspaper clippings)

Din Tai Fung specializes in Xiao Loong Baos. They come in baskets of 5 for RM11.00. 5 in a basket isn't a whole lot. I can easily finish a basket or 2 myself cos they are so yummy :D

yummy xiao loong baos

Menu is pretty limited.. they only had la mien, fried rice, dumplings and udon. I ordered the seafood udon which wasn't too bad but the portion was fairly small. Service was quick and efficient, even at lunchhour when the place was packed we didn't have to wait long for our orders.

You are beautiful 2 ^____^

My obsession with this video XDDD This one is taken from a different angle by Cynthia 

I am gonna plaster the video everywhere on my Facebook and YouTube :)

Why is Ashin shuttering? Or is he struggling with his poor English? hehe
