Marksman evolved to Sniper!!!

Well, went out to get sniper over the weekend as marksman was replace. It was a bitter sweet story. I initially got marksman as i didn't think that i will use it for gaming as i hav a desktop at hme. Recently my desktop got haywired and i was pretty frustrated about it. End up i was without game for more then a month which kinda drove me crazy...

On the other hand, my class mate were complaining that she wants to get a lappy but wasnt really willing to spend much on it. She also comment that my laptop was pretty nice. I actually got this idea of selling it to her at a low price so that i could get a new one too. One stone hit two birds huh? I tot that if i would have sold my lappy online, i would priced it $1200 but since i am kinda helping my friend n she would be helping me in another way, i decided to reduced it to $1000. Which i feel its kinda a premium since i got it at $1599 off the $2299 price tag in the market as i paid as a student. And it 6mths old. I could also throw in all the accessorises that i am not using anymore which would add up easily to another $50 bucks. But, as i was discussing it with big bear, another classmate of mine overheard it n expresses he interest in the lappy at $1000. I told him that if the other class mate didn't wanna buy, i would sell it to him.

So, with two buyers on hand, i decided its time to get a powderful lappy to address all my needs. :)

Turn to Lenovo Y510 initially. A T7500 2.2Ghz processor with 3Gb ram n a Geforce 8600 GT (256mb) n 200gb HDD. I power machine at the price of 2499. Was thinking of buying this as i feels the price over spec is great. But i hesitate when i saw the MAC...

Was shopping at IMM looking for this lappy when i chance upon the mac shop. Wasn't really eager for a mac initially as i find that i knew nuts bout mac, n it would be difficult to use without Microsoft stuffs. But there was this sales guy who was very helpful. Brought me thru the uses of a mac n i was amazed. Most importantly, the mac can open 52 windows of the "safari"!!! Try doing that on ur PC n i guaranty ur PC will lag. But the price was sky high.... $3452 for the mac bk pro. This cause much unhappiness over my friends as they are all very annoyed that i couldn't make up my mind... Sorry guys!

Eventually i got over the mac diesease n decided to get a PC. untill my friend told me the Lenovo Y510 dun look that nice, n its a china brand... Man, this greatly decrease its "appealing index". Imagine if i would to hold a mac bk pro outside, the "appealing index" would be 10 "WAH!!!" But if i hold a Lenovo, it would be a 5 "Chey a lenovo, lousy one..." So i decided to select ASUS, coz its business class lappy is pretty neat n they are actually the oem makers of SONY, so it cant go wrong buying it.

That y i end up with this...



Sniper, notice the revolving video cam. Watchout! i can shoot from behind too!!!



Sniper when closed. Nice piano black with a small sliver line to add to the classy factor. lol

Dim Sum anyone??

Went to see the Dim sum dollies yesterday with josh to celebrate his birthday. It was a hilarious evening with them, cracking joke of the founding of singapore. It started with the dollies siting on a huge clamshell singing away. Then Hossen Leong came out as Alexandra the great. Funny! He walked to the small miniature of singapore, see see look look, typical Hossen, then exclaimed, "too small" then walk away. Alexandra style. lol Next he appeared dressed up as other characters like, Ceasers, Genhis Khan, Gandi, Indian chief a alot more. Jus a few minutes of his appearance already made us all lauf like mad!

Well all this laufing n clapping lasted throughout the show. With shows of Sang Nila Utama (Hossen) and Spice girls, (Selena as star anise, Pam as black pepper, Emma as ginger, Hossen as chilli, as he is "hot" lol. The last one was actually Cinnamon, which was quite a statue. Then they start singing songs,spice girls song but spoofed of course. lol. Next was a spoof of Pirates of the Caribbean, Selena plays "Jack Shadow" n Hossen Leong play the a captured lady but ends up bargaining for the pirates loot.

There's a lot more like the "Samsui" (Some sui <--- pretty) woman, kamakazi pilots, mata in shorts, where they spoof a song for Mr Lee (u know who la) The songs have lots of words like "professional-lee", "Obedient-lee", "xxx-lee" well u know know wat ba. :)

After the wonderful show, we managed to get a picture with the dollies. :) N bought their CD too. But i personal-lee feels that watching the show is far more entertaining then listening to the cd.



Dim Sum Dollies wif me n josh :)

Since i am actually blogging right infront of my lecturer, i think blogging photos will be more appropriate. lol

From the most recent photos:

Dinner with big bear n xiaomei at Taka, after they accompany me to get a present for a friend.


Triple meat risotto in cream sauce.
(Nice when hot n in the beginning. but like all cream based stuffs, they tends to get "ni4" <--- chinese after a while.

By the way, anyone got a english word to replace this word, "ni4"??? Been thinking about it for quite a while...



Crispy chicken risotto in tomato sauce. (This one is slightly soury, not to my liking but pretty refreshing)


Chicken and mushroom linguinie in pesto cream sauce. Well, i finish it in 5mins, wat more can i comment??? :)
