Gorgeous iPad display
… in Apple Store, Ginza.
… in Apple Store, Ginza.
I’m digging the visual style and tone. Something tells me this is going to be the Spidey movie that should have been a decade ago (never digged the tone/styling of Sam Raimi’s Spidey flicks)…
Frikkin’ epic!! End of July can’t come soon enough!
I like the simplicity of the graphics.
…but it doesn’t happen all that often.
If the Great Kanto earthquake hits as predicted (approx. 70% chance within the next 4 years), the M7+ quake’s epicenter should be where the red X is marked in the map – around Tokyo Bay. The areas of the map marked in red would feel the brunt of the force at M7, with orange areas getting M6+ shocks, yellow M6-, green M5+, navy M5-, turquoise M4, white M3, etc.
Guess where I live? Right above the epicenter in the red area!
… where my hair dresser is located. I’m done with having a shaved head (since last July) and have been letting my hair grow again since mid-Dec. It’s only just now that it is long enough for me to visit the hairdressers. And btw, my hairdresser is also a makeup artist, is very fashionable and is… very hot!
… a few hours ago. Went with black this time. My plan is to rotate the colours with every upgrade otherwise it doesn’t feel as if I have something new especially considering the enclosure hasn’t been redesigned…
Epic figure!
… in Central’s IFC Mall (connected below the tall building which Batman jumped off in The Dark Knight).
I personally feel, if you’ve been to one or two Apple Stores, you’ve pretty much been to them all. However, being an Apple fanboy, one cannot help but visit every one of them within reach (´＿｀;)
Look what I bought! Arale-chan iPhone 4 case with dock! Isn’t it a brilliant idea? Those who have watched the anime in the 80s will know Arale is a humanoid robot and she constantly smashes up the earth. To feature Arale smashing downwards on the case’s back panel and to make a dock that is a smashed earth is a darn great idea that is supposed to be just so obvious. Kudos to the designers.
Hong Kong is great for this kinda food. Dirt cheap too…
Well, what else can it be about? Shopping? Nah, Tokyo is superior for shopping. Buy toys? Again, Tokyo is superior for that. So, it has to be about the food. Here’s what me and my HK buddy, Dai Fai, ate for dinner.
This time, the Dai Pai Dong is in Tsim Sha Tsui and is more of the real deal – its like in a huge shed.
Was having lunch with my bother near where he works and he ordered me Shanghai noodles. It was very… spicy!
… still as vivid as ever. Maybe it is just me but there seems to be less signs than say, a decade and a half ago…
Kung Fu legend, Bruce Lee, guards Hong Kong… Waa Taa!
From up here, I should get an amazing view of Hong Kong below. Instead, I get dense mist! Talk about choosing the wrong day to come up, huh?
Mango puddings are another must try in HK. Mango dessert shops are literally everywhere in HK therefore you have no excuse not to try one of the many mango desserts on offer. I particularly like mango with grass jelly in coconut milk!
… finally clears up. The first few days, it was impossible to see across the harbour due to the mist and the pollution (from factories in mainland China). Because of this, I have refused to go to the peak during my last few visits. I mean, it would suck to go up there and see nothing but a smog below…
… at Hong Kong’s Ocean Park. Cannot remember if this is the first time I’ve ever seen a Panda but it sure was awesome. They’re just so… big… and… fluffy!
Dai Pai Dong is a type of open-air food stall (although the one I went to wasn’t in the open air) characterised by its untidy atmosphere, the lack of air conditioning, as well as a variety of low priced great dishes.
There’s this fab little place for Dim Sum in Mong Kok which was featured in the Michelin Guide hence the popularity with foreign vistors. Be warned, you need to queue for an hour or two. Go there, pick up a ticket first, then return.
Daan Taat is basically egg tart and it’s definitely one of the things you MUST try in HK. The best are the ones that have just come out of the oven but you may not always be able to catch the time. Hot or cold, its probably the one of the best egg tarts you’re likely to ever eat (Macau’s egg tarts are amazing too)!
A much needed break from Tokyo. Gonna binge myself…
… excited? I frikkin’ am – just look at that Tommy Lee Jones headsculpt! I hope it doesn’t take a miracle for Enterbay to pull these off during production stage – Enterbay is a hit and miss when it comes to quality…
I’ve always been a skeptic of the iPod nano’s small touch screen (I’ve never been bothered to touch one in the shops) but today I realise it actually… works.
… for 2013/14. I like it! May just buy one in time for Euro 2012 in the summer.
… on March 7th. I’m gonna try hard to skip this version, just like I did with the iPhone 4S. But… a retina display, better camera and a quad-core CPU is just too tempting…
