Odex has been in the news lately because it is aggressively pursuing legal action against people who have allegedly downloaded pirated copies of their anime titles. Downloaders, meanwhile, have defended their actions, citing the poor quality of Odex’s products, with pixelised images, poor audio dubbing and incomprehensible subtitles. The pirated copies of the titles are apparently superior, coming from foreign versions of the products, or where fans have substituted their own subtitles, a practice known as ‘fansubs’. Fans are furious at Odex’s legal actions, as they claim it is a way for them to profit despite peddling substandard prod...

I've been reading this book called The Secret It's actually an empowerment book which talks about the law of attraction The law can be explained by 1 sentence: You'll get what you are thinking, and you can use the law to shape your life This is the law which is equal to the law of nature, and yeah, alot of people have been experiencing it throughout the lives, including you The same thing happened to me: (example 1) 1) I thought about Zhiling jie jie 2) I was crazy about her (though the crazy wave died down now and then, but I'm still crazy bout her now) 3) After a few days, I read the newspaper, SHE IS COMING TO SG!!!! (example 2) This happened in the train just now, while I was reading the book, wanting to try it out 1) I thought bout wanting to see a tall girl 2) The train stopped at kallang 3) A tall girl walked past me and out of the train 4) When I reached White Sands, a tall woman walked in front of me and we rode on the same escalator down to B1 woot so now I...

I've been watching Jennifer Love Hewitt's Ghost Whisperer (Season 1) lately and there's this episode which I can really relate to The episode's ghost is this malicious kid who died and is haunting the house, well, his own house. In the house, there's a baby (his sister), the nanny, and the mum The kid has been scaring, or trying to scare the nannies away, and yeah...it was revealed that his mum has been putting all her time on her work, and dumping him to the nanny. He wanted to be with her, and is unhappy bout it, so one day they made a promise, to go out the following sat to a baseball game and spend time together.... Sat came, and his mum's on the phone even when the time's up for the game. He got pissed and dashed to the car, saying that he'll go by himself. And yeah, he got into an accident in front of the house, another car ramped into his (or his mother's for this instance) and he died. *Fast forward to the scene between JLH, the nanny, the bo...

Recently, I asked someone "What do you think makes a friend?" After asking that, I realised that it is really a hard question to answer, lol A friend is someone who shares your joys AND your sorrows A friend is someone who won't abandon you when you're in deep shit A friend is someone who won't break a promise made to you A friend is someone who won't disappoint you greatly (by breaking a promise) A friend is someone who won't pung seh you at the last min (yeah, better late than never, they say) A friend is someone who won't hesitate to help whenever you need help A friend is someone who is sincere and real A friend is someone who will be there for you whenever you need a shoulder to cry on A friend is someone who you can bitch to and than laugh together Anymore reasons? It's like...I feel that these are what makes a friend, a real, true friend.... Just because I strive to have these qualities in me that I also expect others to have them..am I bein...

It took so many years just to understand myself a little Why? Some may ask... Because of the words: No, you can't do it No, it's impossible No..etc etc Throughout my life (from..say...sec sch till now), I've been hearing words like: You're stupid You think that you're very smart? NO Useless! Can't do anything right Hah, sad life eh? All from a single person: Mum And just because she's my parent, and I gave my parents my ultimate trust, I believed in them I've been thinking that I'm dumb since sec sch, until like around last yr....until I took an IQ test which said that I've got an IQ of 120 This also, there were people to put me down - Ys, Wilmer who said that it's normal for people to get 120 score in those IQ test and all....blah blah I simply refuse to believe, cos I got the highest score so far there at the website - even if tell me that the website is crap now, I'll still believe that I'm smart We argued again just now...haix, sh...

Shouldn't reveal too much details, lol..cos I don't think he would want his private life to be known to soooo many ppl, but it's really damm cool He's a great person outside class...cos I...

I can take scoldings, so as long as there's a valid reason to scold me. So blardy pissed now...seriously, I'm rarely pissed, but now, the anger builds in me, and the only way in which I can express my feelings would be writing I can't punch sth I can't slap her I can't burn the place down I don't have Death Note But I can curse and blog about it, flame her like mad and hope not to be charge in court I do work, but the recent carelessness prompted sup to require to check everything that I've done - Paranoia Ok fine, scold me when I make a mistake, scold me when you spot a mistake, and I'll accept being scolded Was at the printer when I handed her the completed piece of work, looking frustrated, she snatched them from my hands and went, "Can I trust you?

I'm not a believer in god, but a believer in fate, hmmm...is that contradictory? I dunno...it seems that I can have great affinity with a person, but at the same time, be the the complete opposite with another person.. Take Yu Hui for example, she studied in Bishan Park sec sch, I was in Pasir Ris Crest. We met during the SJAB adult (sgt) interview, then we moved onto Poly, same poly and....we both got into business school and bumped into each other 3 times at 3 different locations in 1 day once. Coincidence? I don't think so, haha...that's too much of a coincidence isn't it? Now, guess most of you watched or at least heard bout the show Turn Left Turn Right, a show featuring 2 individuals who never meet even though they stay just next to each other. I experienced it twice, with Emelyn, for the 2 of us were in the same area and at the same time, but NEVER MET. The first time at vivo, the second time being last sat, at Marina Square...and the amazing thing is, we hang a...
