Now listening… Tamaki Nami “Heroine”

I am not a fan of her other albums, but I really like her “Heroine” single. Have been listening to it non-stop. I watched her before at Music Station and from her face, no one (at least me) could predict that she is under 20! Wait, actually I also like her “Sanctuary” opening to the “Kiba” anime. But the rest of her songs are mostly dance hip hop type, which really isn’t my type.

I am so out of shape!

Last time I cycled, I think it was in 2004. Yesterday I started cycling (using a loan bike, thanks PK) and went to Queenstown library to return books. Reaching home, I think I am almost blackout. Panting and sweating like over exercised dog. And it was only 2.5km. Man, I am so out of shape that even Truman sneers at me. Should do it more frequent now. The road path is so much easier than the bumpy sidewalks. But the bigger four wheels machine do scare me. Thinking of cycling after work but it will be during peak hour with lots of scary eager to get home drivers. I have to try it once and see how “scary” it is. Strangely, my thigh muscles are not aching like I suspect they will be.

Now watching… Nagasarete Airantou & Gintama

I am watching Nagasarete Airantou and Gintama recently and both are hilarious, especially Gintama. The humor in Gintama is fresh and original. A great welcome!

Now playing… Call of Juarez [XBOX360]

Call of Juarez [XBOX360]

A first-person shooter game in a cowboy time. Actually a good game with few frustrating platformer acts. The shooting is realistic, I wish there are more shooting than sneaking. Also, it is way too dark in 2 episodes, can’t see anything! It is ok to have a dark setup, but at least provide somekind of light source (lamp, fire, etc.). Eventhough with these few complains of mine, I still like the game. I give it a
