PSP

After a long while, I finally get myself a PSP (silver). Why wait so long? At first, I thought I will not want to play a portable when I have consoles. Also, transportation time is usually very short for a quick PSP game. Not after my friends at the game shop told me how it can play PSX game that I finally get it… just because I have so many PSX games also that I really enjoy. Maybe the long wait also has a positive side, which is, now I get the slim version, instead of the old “fat” version. And the first game that I bought? It’s a game that make PSP worth it: Final Fantasy Tactics. I played this game on PSX so many time and never tired of it. I also palying “Patapon” jap ver now and it is super addictted. I even hum the beating drum when I work. “Pata Pata Pata Pon” “Pon Pon Pata Pon” “Chaka Chaka Pata Pon” It is a great fun game! Now I am glad I get myself a PSP.

Grey’s Anatomy

There are many hospital TV drama and so far, I like Grey’s Anatomy better compare to others. House is funny but too much talking. Haven’t watched ER for very long time and can’t remember why I stopped after 1 season. I enjoy the characters of G’sA, many I like, many I hate and here’s my ranking (1 being best):

1 = Dr. Grey

2 = Dr. Stevens & Dr. Montgomery

3 = Dr. Shepard & Dr. Sloan

4 = Dr. Karev & Dr. Webber & Dr. Yang

5 = Dr. Burke & Dr. Torres

6 = Dr. Bailey & Dr. O’Malley

After a while though, I have the feeling that I can put in a question: “Are the casts too small? Why it looks like everyone is taking turn in sleeping with next in line person?”

This series has many music in it, but I can’t concentrate to listen to it because (duh…) you need to listen to the conversation. But I do recognize Lily Allen’s songs, which is my favorites.

“I am Legend” & “National Treasures”

Watched “I am Legend” & “National Treasures” these last 2 weekends. I heard many dissapointing comments regarding “I am Legend”, but I don’t think it was that bad IMO. “National Treasures” is ok, just like the 1st one, but I still like Harrison Ford in “Indiana Jones” better.

Grey’s Anatomy

Almost one week with no games and anime. Instead, I’ve been watching Grey’s Anatomy TV drama from the first season. Right now, I am up to middle of Second season. Will for sure continue with games after I pick up “Orochi Warriors” and “The Orange Box” this Saturday. Back about the TV series, I rarely watch any dramas and FOR SURE no reality shows. But I do like few of them, which are Lost, Heroes, Grey’s Anatomy and House. Heroes season 2 starts next week… yay!

RIAA… real desperate don’t ya!

We all know what a bunch of _______ (fill in the blank to your heart’s content) RIAA doing right now. Sueing illegal sharing, I… well, some cases ok with it. But now when it starts going greedier and greedier, and on top of that, stupid-ier also! I can’t take it anymore and just want to say something. RIAA, you are not helping the record companies, you’re ruining them. If one is guilty of copying the CD to computer or portable player from CD that s/he PURCHASED, then why the fuck does anyone want to buy CD ANYMORE? Who still holding on a portable CD player nowadays anyway? DA! One great business plan for ruining your clients. I, and would recommend everyone who cares to dump the CD and go straight to MP3 with DRM free from amazon.com. Second, from this article from Motley Fool website: http://www.fool.com/investing/general/2008/01/02/were-all-thieves-to-the-riaa.aspx, I quote: “… a good sign of a dying industry that investors might want to avoid is when it would rather litigate than innovate, signaling a potential. If it starts to pursue paying customers — which doesn’t seem that outlandish at this point — then I guess we’ll all know the extent of the desperation. Investor, beware.” There you go, second and worst nighmare for your clients. Ha ha ha… what a nice way to kill yourself slowly.

What!? Harry Potter?

Yes, that is what I am reading now. I have Book 1-4 of Harry Potter since many many years ago and never touch them. Saw movie 1-3 only and doesn’t really enjoy them either. With nothing to read, I grabbed Book 1 and started reading. It was actually enjoyable, much more so than the movie… for me at least. And I understand why the first book made so much bangs. Now I am half way at Book 2 and will continue so. It may be late, but yeah, I am reading Harry Potter now.

Happy New 2008 Year!

Happy New Year to you all. Honestly, for myself, it just like any other weekend. I don’t consider I have pathetic life, because I chose not to go out partying and celebrating with other thousands of souls *shiver*. So what did I do? I cooked, played “Blue Dragon”, watched “Ocean Thirteen” while the clock tickling away to a new year and played more game. I won’t brag it, but I enjoy my time off
