Cousin's Wedding

Today, I attended my cousin's wedding.

Going there was a hassle; there was a road closure and we had to drive through Lim Chu Kang cemetry.

That place is very creepy, look around and you will feel a slight shiver down your spine. Futhermore we got lost, so my other cousin had to drive round and round the cemetry.

Back to the main point, the occasion was quite interesting as this was my first time witnessing a Malay-Chinese style wedding.

Everyone had a chuckle as the bridegroom was a bit blur on what he had to do, and he cracked some jokes too.

And guess who I met there.
Miss Juliana Tay. (the one Si Hao called ogre =X)
the no-longer zhss art teacher
she recognised my other cousin whom she previously taught before.

Hmm, that's about it.

Simplicity rocks!

Today I met up with Shuqian and Jeremy, two of my good friends in secondary school.

Ate a simple meal at Food Junction@J8 and spent the rest of the afternoon playing Dai Dee at a nearby void deck.

It is always nice meeting up with old pals and reminise the past while playing simple card games.

Back to the topic of simplicity, I feel that certain games have gone through several developments till they become too complicated.
Some examples:
-Football Manager 2009: Everyone wanted the 3D-match engine, and true enough it came. But loading and gaming time takes longer, thus making the game not as addictive as before.
-Call of Duty 5: Simple question. Do you prefer COD5 or COD4? There's your answer.

Yeah, the past few days, I've been playing back old classics and found them to more addictive than the current ones.

So what do you guys think?

Side-note:
To those who are bored-
CounterStrike 1.6 Non-Steam
Garena
Download the two above and play CS with me. LOL.

I shall be posting up more game download links. =D

Fabregas appointed captain of Arsenal FC

Fabregas has been appointed the new captain of Arsenal after Gallas was stripped of his captaincy for his ranting of the club.

Well for me, the appointment came as a suprise as I expected either Toure or Clichy to be named as captain. But I guess Fabregas is everyone's favourite for the post and furthermore, it was incentive for Fabregas to stay with the Gunners, seeing the tough patch the Gunners are currently going through.

Whether Fabregas becomes a good captain or not remains to be seen. At just 21 years of age, he is one of Arsenal's youngest captains. Tony Adams was made captain at the same age, and he proceeded on to be one of Arsenal's finest captains. Will Fabregas be able to emulate him? Or will he falter like Thierry Henry; a star that became captain, but failed as one as the team over-relied on him. Only time will tell.

One thing's certain, it is the beginning of a new era for Arsenal FC.
