Christmas Mood~

Hi all,

As most of you know (most here cause there might be someone out there who does not know) Christmas (Xmas) is just around the corner. I see most of us getting into the holiday spirit now.

Some of you might have already visited a couple of shopping malls and seen some xmas decorations. For me, I've visited The Curve, One Utama, Midvalley Megamall, Tropicana City Mall and Berjaya Times Square (TS). As you can see on your right, it's at the concourse of TS. Actually there's a stage further right in the picture with a bigger structure on top (house/barn like).

After entering through the front entrance of TS, you will definitely notice a humongous rotating xmas tree. Yes, it's the tree used every year for xmas but this time with a twist... it's rotating. Below the huge tree is a hut/shack, S&J had the honor (or money) to be selling their stuffs below the tree. As you can see from the xmas tree picture, you will notice there's an S&J signboard. Upon entering, you will get to listen to the creaking rotating sound of the tree above, if your ears are sensitive enough. TS also prepare some pictured board there with faces cut-off so you could put your face there and get the body of Santa... and take pictures. You will get to see roaming Santa and his... errrr... wife?

While for 1U, it's more of a classy xmas. Look at the glass like structure, the top part is rotating. This is the only part that i felt xmas spirited, elsewhere was just simple deco. Even though it's with the classy look, it's free for anyone to take picture.

Tropicana City Mall got all the xmas stuffs put up for sale on the concourse but not much xmas decorations. Maybe they are still preparing.

While for Curve, they've prepared a place for you to take pictures. It's a nicely decorated xmas stage like place. I forgot to take picture of that place and it's really hard to describe.

Me myself? My family has setup a Xmas tree in our living room. Not a big one, it's height is up to my torso. It's nice, very nice. It's the tree me and my friends bought for xmas few years back... can't remember exactly which year. I still remembered how we celebrated the 1st xmas we had that tree. BBQ + Steamboat dinner... at my house.

So... what are you planning for your xmas? In the mood already? I hope all of you are...

Long long update~

Good morning/afternoon/evening/whenever you may be reading this,

It's been some time... really some time since I last update. Look at the chat box... see how many people flaming me.

Recently been really hooked up at an old game, couldn't stop playing it. Even some of the reviewers said that this game can easily accumulate up to 500 hours of playing time. I'm almost there, now being close to 200 hours playing time. What game is this you might ask? It's Monster Hunter Freedom Unite (MHFU) for PSP.

Besides doing solo quest, this game encourages the spirit of hunterhood. You may play this game with 3 other hunter friends. Totaling up to 4 players cooperating taking on some quests. And there's even something like Garena to make the game fun playing called XLink Kai (Kai).

Been playing on Kai from morning till late night, but until recently. Not sure what happened but Kai could no longer detect my PSP. Been trying to figure out what had happened but to no avail. Hopefully someone out there could help me.

OK... back to real life, it's been some time since I last played futsal too. If any of you wanted a noob player to play with, do not hesitate to gimme a call. I'd be happy to join you guys for futsal or field football.

Nevertheless, my holiday is quite nice. My girl is back in town. Planning stuffs and things with her. Hehehehee... preparing for my steamboat buffet this Thursday night also and then another Broga Hill hike on Friday. This is gonna be super fun... although exhausting I must say.

I think that's all for now... see ya in the next update
