I hate angry birds

At first, it started off with this really funny video I watched some months ago :

Amused, I showed it to Cartcart.

A month later, we went to Singapore and the first thing that Cart did was to scour for a new handphone. Eventually he bought for himself a Nokia N8 and immediately fiddled with it. And you know how boys are when they get new toys … He started to talk incessantly about his phone.

And when we had dinner together with some friends, he was so engrossed with his phone, he doesn’t talk or socialise with anyone at all. He didnt even noticed Mintea‘s awesome tee shirt when I mentioned it to him. By this time, she was already long gone

But I had to be understanding. After all, it is natural for someone to feel extremely excited at acquiring a new toy. I’d probably act the same way too.

But then not too long after that, Cart decided to install Angry Birds in his handphone.  At first I was amused. But that quickly turn into alarm when he played it ALL the time to the point that he spent the entire weekend trying to get a high score.

Just picture your partner, ignoring you 90% of the time playing Angry Birds, playing it the first thing as he wakes up and the last thing you remember as you go to sleep is “Weeeeeee!”  and “Woohoohoohoo” and “na na na na na nah! na na naah naah naah!”

Sometimes I feel like cutting off his angry bird. Good thing he seems to be slowly waning off from that bugger!

Italians like to karaoke too

Ohai!

Thought that I’d dress up a little since it was valentines day. I look *cough* sexeh *cough* don’t I?

Anyway, even though I’m not all that overtly enthusiastic about Valentines day, it’s nice to take a break from our regular routine and have a nice evening to ourselves.

And knowing that restaurants will be insanely full and overpriced, we headed to this modest place called Squisito which isnt too far away from our place. Having eaten here before, I was enamoured with their seafood pasta.

I ordered the Valentine’s day set meal and while the food wasn’t bad …

My potato and fish dish (the fish is hidden underneath the potato) was quite nice …

And I really liked my orange cake dessert …

It was really really really hard to talk to Cartcart over the loud KARAOKE singing. I thought that only Asians liked karaoke

Check it out :

Yes, please dial 62353535 to vote for this singer. Hurry!

How does one have a romantic dinner when one has to scream to their date the entire time?

I saw a contest being hosted by Tech65 and for fun, I thought I’d enter too.

Here is my submission .. Hope I win!

What do you think of it?

Sidenote : Gosh, I’m so rusty in animation! Moreover with the new changes in Flash in CS4, it took me a very long time to re-learn how to do a motion tween again! Freaking heck!

Also : Check out Tech65 in 2007, they’ve gone a long way!

Just a couple of years ago, before getting married, I’d be webcamming with Cart regularly. Now the role has been reversed with my family.

I suppose this is a long distance relationship of another kind.

I love whatsapp!

I absolutely adore whatsapp. Its one of the most convenient and possibly also the cheapest way to text with friends and family and there is no need for additional sign ups and passwords and other gobledygook since all your contacts are already in your Sim card or your phone.

It used to be only for iPhones but now its available for Symbian, Android and Blackberry! So we could all enjoy the whatsapp goodness. I cannot believe how a simple app can be so elegant and yet make it so easy to keep in touch with friends *eyes shining*

Anyway, here is a short video I did, with Daphne having a guest spot in the demo section

Have you used whatsapp before?  Do you lurrrrvee it as much as I do? Comment below!
