Caught Star Wars: Episode III yesterday at GV Marina. Show lasted 2 hours and 20 minutes. It was good, I didn’t saw episode 1, 4, 5 and 6. I only saw episode 2 and 3 and I kinda like the storyline. 2 thumbs up.

Saw Sahara, show was around 2 hours also. It was good, regretted not catching it in the cinema.

Watched XXX2: The Next Level at GV Grand on Labour Day. Excellent action pack show which will keep you at the edge of your seat. It lives up to the reputation of XXX1. But if you are looking for storyline instead, I suggest you give this a miss.

Watched Divergence yesterday, not a good show at all. It is like a replica of Infernal Affairs, but either they fail badly or simply I am too dumb to understand what the movie is toking about.

As the title of this post says, I have updated this site to WordPress 1.5. It is the smoothest upgrade I have ever been through. No errors or major mishaps at all, just some very minor cosmetic bugs. If you found any errors, please drop me an email or post it in the forum. I have made a habit of reading my forums once every 2 days =)

Last Friday, watched The Pacifier at GV Jurong Point. It is a midnight show, been quite sometime since we watched a midnight show. The show is quite good and some parts are lame but funny. I love the Panda Dance. LOL

Last week was like a pasta week for me. Tried the L’Emozione Pasta Bar at Ngee Ann’s City B2, just outside Cold Storage. It is fabulous and price is very reasonable. Price on par with Pasta Mania but so much nicer. I got hooked onto it.

Watched House Of Fury last last Friday. Good kung fu action movie if you ask me. Personally I find it better than Kung Fu Hustle.

Basically this 2 weeks, nothing much to blog about. The same old routine. Received 3 letters. One is from Nanyang Technological University (NTU) which states that I qualify for their Computer Engineering course. Second one is from National University of Singapore (NUS) which states that I qualify for their Computing Course and the last is a scholarship from Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore (IDA) .

I have updated all my WordPress Plugins to be compatible with WordPress 1.5. However, this site is still running on WordPress 1.2. I will upgrade it as soon as I modified the templates. Apparently modifying codes is much more interesting than modify codes. LOL.
