Chaaanng-er!! Wo men yong yuan zhi chi ni!
Greetings!
As part of our calender of annual events which includes, NYE, X'mas Day, B-days, etc... it's the annual MID-AUTUMN FESTIVAL this time! (Albeit one day behind the actual day.. heh!)
Here's a short photolog of the late (cuz of latecomers like me! hehe!) evening's "lantern walk"!
"Look! It's a bird, it's a plane.. NO, it's 'hazy' CHANG-ER!"
The lantern path... and.. who's that mysterious gal? Hmm?
Daniel lighting and preparing the lanterns for everyone! Except the unwilling Boon and Jon who refused to carry lanterns! (p.s. I was designated photog, so i couldn't carry a lantern as much as I wanted to! Really! *snigger*)
Awww... and here's the "mystery gal"! Valerie & Ivan!
Double awww... Pauline & Leonard!
Triple awww... Darren & Daniel!
Floating lanterns by the bridge...
It's time for the sparklers!!!
Two of Aunty Ho's THREE victims... she's a closet arsonist I tell you.
L-O-V-E! Love!!!
*cough* Read above caption! *cough*
F-U-C-_! FUCK?!?!? Lalala!
Desmond with 5 spraklers at a go!! Ow Ow ow!
And that was it... I bet some neighbours filmed us jokers down and we're probably somewhere on Youtube getting 1/5 star ratings now. Haha!
For more pictures, here's a link to Darren's aptly named coverage of the event too! Moonlight Massacre! <-- CLICKITY CLICK!
"Flame on!",

Photoblog of Jeff's Club 27 Initiation! [20-08-2006]
Sorry for the delay of 2 days! Heh! Anyway, just note that this is a very "picturesquely wordy" post... whatever that means! And if you're viewing this from work... well, some parts are mildly NSFW which is 'Not Safe For Work' if you're not familiar with web-speak. Onward!
The day began with the very impromptu (actually, it WAS briefly discussed midweek.. but.. lalala!) decision that we will ambush Jeffrey at his own home! So, a meeting time was set for 3pm to meet at a coffeeshop opposite his condominium (Moonstone View aka Moonstone Theatre) before we set off up to his place for the SURPRISE!! Benjamin at this time was in Australia but occupying Jeff online (and AT HOME) so as to make sure that we don't give Jeff's mom a heart attack instead.
By a twist of fate, for once, I was earlier than everyone else. And the best thing was that the coffeeshop was CLOSED!
This uncle was sleeping inside and "jaga-ing" the place to make sure loiterers like me dun steal his secret 'Briyani recipe'!
And so... i waited and waited... and waited... till the cows (crows in this case!) came home. *caww... cawww...*
After a couple phonecalls, I decided to check out the place. Hmm... it's really quiet (that would explain the jaga being able to sleep!).. and there's nothing/nobody around. One thought came to mind then... "Malaysia.. Truly Asia!!" Hehehe!
As quickly as my tour began, it abruptly halted due to the discreet arrival of both Darren and Tshush and our special boy's BIRTHDAY CAKE!
Now... we're only left with Edmund. I wonder where could he be...
It came to the point when it was unbearably hot outside, so we decided to enter the condominium to wait for Ed instead. We stood by the pool, and enjoyed patronizing thisused panties cold drinks vending machine.
Eventually, Ed did arrive of course, and we proceeded to carry out our SURPRISE! Having gotten to his unit however, we rang and rang and rang the bell and knocked and knocked the door to no avail! Apparently, Benjamin was doing a damn fine job in occupying him!
Thus, at one point, Ed suddenly realised the absence of a certain Ivan Lim. And the following brief conversation ensued..
Ed: Ivan's in China?
*Darren raises eyebrow*
Rowf: Yeah, he's visiting prostitutes.
Darren: *gasp* Ivan's vagina???
*cue infectious laughter*
Ok, so I probably have bad pronounciation, but that little episode sure cracked us up!
Anyway, eventually, I messaged Jeff to tell him to come open the door for a pizza delivery that we ordered for him! And of course, by this time, it wasn't really a surprise anymore.. as even a ninnyhead like Jeff would noe who was waiting outside for him.
Still, on the very slight chance that he did not expect it, we wanted to immortalise his "shocked" expression on camera for the sake of it!
Here he comes! We can see his shadow!
Quick, block the peephole Darren!
SURPRISE!!!!! *???!* Where's Jeffrey?!
Ah, there he is!! In all his half-naked glory!! (Bear in mind he was in this state while playing games with Benjamin online with the air-con on! We came to the EXTREMELY LOGICAL conclusion that he was in fact touching himself while playing too. No doubt about it.)
So, we made our way in to congratulate Ben on a job well done in keeping him at home! And of course, to wreck the BIRTHDAY BOY'S HOUSE!
Once inside, Jeff jumped into his bed being disappointed that we interrupted his little PERSONAL & PRIVATE party with Ben... tsk tsk. Nothing says it more than evidence in pictures.
They of course had nothing to say in response to that! And, not like we would accept any other explanation either too!
After throwing on a singlet (His body is for Ben's eyes only see), we did what all geeks/nerds/dorks would do to celebrate a party! Play 'Settler's of Catan"!! The game proceeded with little fanfare or incident, besides the fact that even by giving the BIRTHDAY BOY his deserved chances, he was still unable to fight his way out of his little village of doom.
His blue village was somehow cut-off by the roadworking endeavours of White Wizard Darren and Red Dwarf me! And Ed's yellow infrastructure expansion sealed off his only ways of escape. (Note: The toothpick holder u see is the most "biggestest" and "giganticus" robber you'll ever see in a game of Settlers. The original robber was swallowed by T3's beagle, Coco, I think.)
However, it is necessary to note that Jeff wasn't really gonna be totally stifled. He merely changed strategy to attempt to win the game by hoarding development cards.
But, that of course just prolonged the game as the road building war between Darren and me became a tit-for-tat battle. And when it was realised that the White Wizard was going to win, a trade embargo (includes merciless ravaging of his resources by robbing) was placed upon him by the rest of us.
Still, Ed had time to build what he would call his little version of the SURPREME COURT as the game went on.
That did not last long however, as Catan soldiers came forth from nowhere and spread death and destruction upon the court of law.
Eventually, the trade embargo and relentless pirate attacks proved futile and the White Wizard went on to claim victory on the land of Catan! Being Jeff's special day, Darren was SOMEWHAT 'gracious' enough to share the winning mugshot with him!
After the game, it was time for dinner of course! And we called in deliciously unhealthy KFC! Mmm... finger licking good. Of course, we had to make use of that big screen and projector, so we watched "Star Wars: Clone Wars" (The animation that tells the story in between Episode II and III)... and Futurama! All during and after dinner!
Somehow, time flies when you're watching DVDs it seems... and it was time to cut the CAKE! Jeffrey had no lighter, so Ed used the hob to light his candles! When it was all ready and done, we realised, that Darren and Jeff were engaged in deathmatch 'Brain Academy' on the Nintendo DS! The candles were melting, but there was no disengagement of battle when it comes to whose brain weighs the most! *ROWR!!!*
Alas, Ed had no choice but to sing a Happy Birthday to himself.. and ogle at the cake (No longer cheap cakes from Giant!)...
"It's my party, and I'll cry if I want to!! CRY if I want to!!! CRRRRYYYYY if I want to! You'll do too if it happens to you- du, du-duuu du-duuuuuuuu, DU!"
Unfortunately, it WAS NOT Ed's birthday! So he couldn't cry of course.. and after saving the chocolate flakes from the wax, Jeffrey finally settled in front of the cake and we all sang a short, sweet and totally in-tune "Happy Birthday" song for him!
After which, the somewhat battle-hardened black forest cake took the opportunity to say a few words too... "HAPPY 27th BIRTHDAY!".
But that did not spare it from brutal murder at the hands of BIRTHDAY BOY Jeff! With 5 fell swoops, it was all over for Mr. Black Forest. *SShhhiinnng!*
And needless to say, first to the cake was none other than the fatty-bom-bom, Dr. Zoidberg aka Tshush! He unceremoniously demanded the biggest and creamiest piece of the cake.. which Jeff duly obliged.
Darren and Ed were on the other hand, very wary of the fat content that the cake possessed. Even in mutilation, Mr. Black Forest it seems had the last laugh!
Soon after, it was time to say goodbye, to what was a fun-filled and constructive afternoon-night out for all of us! Long live Club 27!!! Cheers!
[Update 23/08/06: Corrected 'ACTUAL CONVERSATION' regarding Ivan's vagina as provided by Ed and confirmed by Tshush. Heh!]
Till the next B-day!

Of Cars and Hedges
Ahh... animations... dun you just love them? And of course, we have the latest in Pixar/Disney vs Dreamworks Animation SKG productions. Namely, Cars vs Over the Hedge.
To me, both animations had their strong point(s), but overall, I felt Cars gave me a larger "another satisfied customer" feeling.. in other words, value for my precious SEVEN SGD!
Here's a quick shootout (IMHO) between them:
Storyline = Cars! (Both had their "moralistic" story to tell.. but Cars put it through more subtly.)
Animation = Over the Hedge! (Rendering Fur physics >>> Rendering Reflective surfaces. 'nuff said.)
Soundtrack = Cars! (Just visit the website links above!)
Humour = Cars! (See below for more!)
There you have it! And as I'll elaborate... Cars took the humour category for me cuz of the "Pixar Short" (One Man Band) preceding the actual movie. If you haven't seen the movie, you might want to take a look at the short below to see what I'm getting at. And if you have seen the movie, well, sometimes it's good to see it again isn't it?
Enjoy then, courtesy of 'higuizmo' who uploaded it to 'Dailymotion' (Another one of them video upload sites like Youtube, VeOh, etc.)
