Alright... I know I haven't been blogging in a while, but I've been up to my eyeballs in projects and tests, so I guess that kinda excuses me... *grins*

Ok, 'fore I go on, would like to wish every a very very prosperous Chinese New Year albeit a lil belated. PS - Lillian Too says that there'll be loads of speculative luck this year. So buy more 4D!!! =P I cannot, however, be held responsible should you decide to heed the above advice without any gains.

So... Now that's outta the way. Whew... Have tonnes to share (to the few people who actually bother with this comatose blog)

www.etsy.com

This website I discovered purely by chance, though whether that's a good thing or not, I can't really say. Etsy is basically like ebay and all, only the goods sold there are MOSTLY handmade. I've purchased quite a number of things from etsy, polymer clay pendants, earrings, and even plant seeds (which were, I admit, impulse buys). So if you guys wanna get some really unique and exclusive stuff, you can go check out http://www.etsy.com/... and yes, some of the "shop owners" are willing to customize as well, so there is no risk whatsoever of turning up at that party only to find that someone else has something identical.

My next (not so) new obsession. I know that the "in" tv series at the moment is Heroes. I, being the deviant that I am, cannot understand what all the hype is about (waits for gasps of disgust to fade into the distance).

I am, however, completely in love with the medical drama, House M.D, which, some of you would know, drew some flack a few weeks ago, when it was said by one of the characters in the show, that with a credit card and condoms, one can get anything they want in Singapore. Now, before you get your knickers in a bunch, I am NOT saying that I agree with what they said. I am completely neutral with regards to that particular statement.

Controversy aside, House is the name of the sarcastic and cynical doctor who heads the diagnostic team in a fictional (i think) hospital. Episodes are full of dry humour, sarcasm, and interesting medical facts that most wouldn't have heard of before.

Daolin (as usual) was the one who got me hooked on this show, which is now well into its 4th Season. Sadly, its one of the many shows affected by the writers' strike, which means that unlike previous seasons, which had over 20 episodes each, this season could very well end at episode 12, which is darn sad if you ask me. So, if you're a House addict, like I am, keep your fingers, eyes, toes etc, crossed, that the season will go on.

That's all for now I guess. Either my life is completely dull, or I'm simply too tired to blog. *checks watch* 3am... Ok, its fatigue. Or at least, I choose to believe so. =D Will be putting up many many photos soon... I promise!

Oh and before I go... Thanks to all who turned up for TAG-Nique 2008. We appreciate your support. A lorry load of thanks also to Blitz!. Aaron, Daolin, Licia... Thanks you guys. We had fun (I hope =P) and we'll keep doing this till we can't anymore. I love you guys!

Cheers folks!
