Shopping »

Guess what’s better than shopping in a clothing store? Well, shopping in a clothing store that has a robot to greet you!!!!! I went to UNIQLO today and there he is, Wakamaru! He can talk, walk around, greet people, play game, pose for picture, do execrise, etc!

BTW, just like what the sign said, he do not understand English very well and seems to have a mind of his own~ hahaha

New York »

It’s like a bizarre dream looking at this 1939 map of the planned expansion for New York City Subway. Look at how the 7 line go all the way passed Flushing and go to two directions: College Point/Whitestone and Bayside! Then look at how there’s another line crossed the East River to service Southside of Williamsburg or look at how there is a line go straight to Staten Island. What about the line go across Long Island City similar to today’s route of Grand Central then connect …

Anyway, the new season is upon us and watch the free pre-air premiere on iTunes. As expected the episode already contain scenes filmed on my block. I challenge you all to spot my apartment in the episode!!!

The new TV season just started but I have already pick up 4 new shows to watch:
1) Fringe – Latest from JJ Abrams. It got the same intensity with Lost but with a more X-files feel in it. The mystery of what’s going on really hook you in, but might push you out the door as easy if it drag on like Lost and X-files. It’s still intriguing and definitely worth to watch, Plus I miss Pacey…Joshua Jackson !
2) …

Dreams »

Now this is a rare dream….because it got a bit of political setting! (but of course it’s my dream, so eventually it’s all fantasy sci-fi to the end! haha) In the dream I was going to a political rally for Obama. This rally is to prove that Obama is still a bigger celebrity than that Sarah “drill-loving, pork-loving, private-email-loving, Russia-is-my-neighbor” Palin. I actually have an alternative motive for going to the rally. I was there because I know there will be a lot of people, which would …

Apple »

Given that I already got the iPhone and and iPod Classic (160GB! now extincted!) that is less than a year old, this Tuesday’s Apple iPod announcement although interesting, are not something that I would get. My main focus is the software feature that they announced and a certain accessories.
I am definitely interested in their new in-ear headphone. Their old one was a good try but eventually I switch to v-moda’s headphone, especially once v-moda got the microphone version out. My headphone break frequently due to my excessive …

I always knew NBC is petty, but man, they are getting lower and lower these days. According to this article, NBC refused to let their stars Masi Oka from Heroes and Sarah Lancaster from Chuck to appear on Scrubs finale~ How petty is that?? It’s one thing if ABC steal Scrubs from NBC, then maybe they have a reason to be petty about it, but the fact is that NBC pretty much throw the show in a backalley somewhere and let it die, wouldn’t let it to have a proper …

News Buzz »

As a librarian (can I still call myself that even if i don’t work as a librarian anymore?), this piece of news from Times magazine is disturbing:
Stein says that as mayor, Sarah Palin continued to inject religious beliefs into her policy at times. “She asked the library how she could go about banning books,” he says, because some voters thought they had inappropriate language in them. “The librarian was aghast.” That woman, Mary Ellen Baker, couldn’t be reached for comment, but news reports from the time show that Palin had …

Personal »

Oh crap, now I remember I was such an embarrassment last night.
I probably can’t even blame the fact that I haven’t drink anything for the past nine months. I am just such a pathetic lightweight! Seriously who could get so drunk by a drink that was made of pear, apple, pineapple, peach and champagne!! It’s only one-fifth of the ingredient that is alcoholic!!! And I had a constant refilling glass of water the entire time!
I was totally boring to anyone because I have to focus all my attention to stay …

Looks like after Doctor Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog, Neil Patrick Harris and Felicia Day can’t stop singing! NPH becomes a shoes fairy completed with fairy wings, singing about shoes on Sesame Street, while Felicia sang with Mr Geeky, Jonathan Coulton.
Watch this Sesame Street clip. (sorry, embed is disabled)
