Keep on Lifting

The person that posted a comment about my spelling, see the the comments page of the previous post for my reply.

It's been dead boring these couple of days. Parents are at home on these public holidays and that means I can't play the PS2, since they don't know it exists. I'm falling behind on FFX, man! Come on! Give us a break.

Went to a Christmas Eve party on Sunday, and it was pretty cool. The food was quite decent and I managed to have a little chat with a university student on what the campus of USyd at Cumberland is like. According to him, it's very small and you get to know everyone pretty well. Sounds like my kind of place. Entertainment was sparse, until we found the owners big tv and sound system. We ended up watching Samurai Champloo, which was pretty good anime. But the size or zoom or whatever was kinda screwed and we couldn't get the video to size up exactly with the screen. And the subtitles were out of sync. It got kinda tiring, and soon, it was only my brother, my cousin and I watching. Then we discovered Harold and Kumar go to White Castle.

I heard about this movie from Jack, but never really got around to seeing it. Sounds like the time Jack gave me Infernal Affairs. I still haven't watched that. But White Castle was really cool. A basic road trip type of story, it's about Harold, this Asian guy, and Kumar, this Indian, trying to get to White Castle, a fast food joint, but are put through a series of misadventures along the way. It touches lightly on racial discrimination, not enough to get you riled up and throwing boulders, but enough for you to take notice. Unfortunately, we had to leave before we finished the movie. That's it, I gotta find the DVD.

So boring week, what's a guy to do? Well take a leaf out the girls' book and go shopping. There's this ad on TV going on about the really cheap books, cd, and dvds sale going on at Sydney Showground tomorrow, so that's where I'll be. Don't know what time I'll be there, most likely around 10am - 11am. So if you come and long and happen to meet, I'll say hi to ya.

And on the 28th of December, a Thursday, my brother wants to check out City Hunter Burwood, grab his friends and play some DoTA and CS:S. If anyone wants to tag along, you're welcome to. We'd probably get there at 11ish am, grab lunch at the Hungry Jack's nearby and stay until 2-3ism pm.

And I'm going to Queensland on the 2nd of January to the 8th, so I'll be out of communication until I return. And I think there's a band thing event at the Annandale Hotel on the 13th of January. I'm 70% certain to go, so tag along as well!

Have a Happy New Year everyone!
