There Was A Hole Here

Long time no post. I spent the dying days of September being capped, and there was a bunch of uni work I had to plough through. So updates.

I've managed to locate Bokbunjajoo, the Korean raspberry wine. My friend Sheung discovered a liquor store that sold it in Stratfield and bought three bottles of the stuff. Very nice. I still have 1.5 bottles left, and I'm saving one for...well...that Vietnamese thing where you honour the dead. I don't know who to accurately translate that into English. Death memorial? That's the closest I can get to.

Finally finished Ace Attorney Justice For All. I started it ages ago, but never got around to finishing it. But I've finally finished it and am now starting on the third game Trials and Tribulations. The American version is not officially released, but the Jap version does have the translated English game there as well, so no big deal. Playing through Trials and Tribulations just reaffirms who much I love Ace Attorney. The plot, quirky characters and awesome music just suck me in. Games is more than just great graphics, you've got to have substance to back it up.

New book addition. Neal Asher's Polity Agent. It's a hard sci-fi novel, that focuses on more on the science of future. Still, it's got some great characters, but the ending leaves something to be desired. It still leaves a lot of loose threads. Probably setting up for a sequel. I hate it when that happens.

Damn. I have a exam tomorrow. And an assignment due at the end of the week. Might as well get it over with rather than procrastinate. Trying not to procrastinate so much. I finished some of the uni work on the Monday of the mid-semester break, and now I feel good about it, because I've already finished it and I don't have to speed through it NOW. Hmmm...there is really something to be said about getting your work done in advance of the deadline. I might...try it some more.

Here's a little something that I found amusing.
