Metal Gear Director

Monday, August 25th, 2008

So today was exciting. The director for Metal Gear Solid shows up at work to take a studio tour and other things. What the other things are, I don’t know, however, I did manage to take a picture with him. I was so nervous, words failed me. Somehow, I always ...

Dying Mimosa Pudica

Saturday, August 23rd, 2008

The plant I bought from Nishi Hongwanji is dying. Or close to dead. It’s infected with little bugs so I put it outside. :(

When Crunching is Over…

Wednesday, August 20th, 2008

I’m going to go to the gym 2 hours a day, 7 days a week. Work has been feeding me unhealthy crap and I’ve just been sitting around all day. I do try to go to the gym during lunch to get some exercise, but I feel that it’s not ...

Mycophile 0/1

Wednesday, August 20th, 2008

I bought one dancesroom and ran all the way to Carpenter’s Landing thinking it was 100% drop. I dunno why I thought that, but I did. Popped Mycophile. Killed Mycophile. No drop. :( I’m going to buy more dancesrooms and try again tomorrow...

Karaoke Skype

Monday, August 18th, 2008

So a group of my FFXI friends have been singing over Skype for the last two nights. We’d take turns picking a song and belting out our best (which in reality is probably our worst). I’d google the song lyrics quickly before I start singing. Last night, I had to ...

Rabbits and Carrots

Wednesday, August 13th, 2008

I gave a carrot to Hoji and Sen. Sen went for it first, of course. Hoji soon came for his share. Eventually it turned into a game of keep away. Too cute. XD I’m going to have to keep my camera ready when I feed them their next carrot.

Matcha Meringue Cookies

Tuesday, August 12th, 2008

I baked some meringue cookies last night. Since I needed to go to bed, I decided to try putting them in the oven that was hotter than what the recipe called for and let them bake in the residual heat. I think it might need a bit more matcha powder ...

Dennis’ Birthday Barbecue

Saturday, August 9th, 2008

I had to go to work today so I missed the scavenger hunt. Poo. When I got out, I went to Clover Park down the street from work to join them for the fooding and birthday song singing. The barbecue was delicious. The birthday song was off key. It was awesome. ...

Stupid People Shouldn’t Drive

Friday, August 8th, 2008

For my lunch hour, I wanted to go to the Santa Monica Pier to take pictures for Flickr 888 group pool so off I went with 4 of my coworkers. Unfortunately, I got nothing spectacular. :\ And I found out how hot the sand can get on the bare feet. ...

Thursday, August 7th, 2008

Tomorrow is 888, or August 8, 2008. It’s Flickr 888! It’s also the first day of the Beijing Olympics.
