rainbow on way back to birmingham

was in Bristol on Saturday to see the Bristol Show about hi fi and home cinema stuff.

Bristol is similar 2 liverpool in many ways minus the scouse accent and dirtiness. And minus the friendliness of liverpool just by a bit.

i tot it was a very old place. of course because i ventured into the OLD CITY first where it was quiet, where people seems to be taking the same route to another place like ants and not to other places. Then i discovered CABOT CITY which was soo vibrant. and i LOVED the shopping centre. brick and wood as its exterior and it oozed real comfort. similar 2 liverpool one in some aspects but i think it's roof really pips Liverpool One off a bit as you can shop outdoor without being wet and damp.

The Show was absolutely gem. It was my first and I loved it. Yun Sin couldnt come so I was visiting all the stalls in Marriot Hotel. didnt really know whether he will enjoy it or not if he was here. Bumped into Plinius, the FINEST hi fi set i come into with a beyond my reach price. £14, 000 ++ for the system ONLY. could own a decent car with that cash. with that price of course you expect brilliant music. n yes, it was. it got to. the detail, the richness. you can really point out where the musicians were playing. that is how good it is, and how it should be at this price tag. least i understand that now.

Visited my long admired Cyrus. It is FAB. I am impressed by the music it produced. of course that's not the system i am wanting for but it tells me how good cryus is. This is the brand i am getting in the years to come.

and for the rest... let the pictures do the talking. This show really showed me what is around for hi fi and beyond. Watched 3D tv too... i m not a big fan of 3D i have to say. not yet, maybe.

Camera + Pictures

Sarah's farewell and pan cake party


Colin made it for Sarah.


Some of the coursemates at the party


St Andrews Gardens


A bit of snow


My camera kit. Battery and camera pouch. N the Canon S90 box.

This is how my camera looks like.

Got this camera after reading some reviews. Compact enough to bring around anywhere and I can fiddle around with the options of manual control - i.e. Aperture, ISO and Shutter Speed. Time to learn a bit about photography. If I get it (takes..sometime), then I should be able to get good resutls. And then, a DSLR will be in my plan.

For the time being, will be enjoying taking pictures. I wonder whether i should get a 16GB SDHC card. lolz.

Picture do the talking - let's Kung Flew Fighting!


Warm up is important!! Stretch wings and beak!


FIGHT!!

Kung Flew Kick... waa chaa!!

RAAWWRRRR. Victory! poor birdie

P/S: the defeated bird was unharmed. After losing the battle, it dusted itself and flew off.
Do you know something? In the animal kingdom, rarely does the animal kills its opponent. Dogs, Lions, and even the birds here. On the other hand, human beings do. hm, food for thought.

PPS: You can read the news at by clicking here. Pictures are from there too.

Bleach 死神


Bleach Battle Poll results.

How much I miss Ulquiorra Cifer, the one in green suite (click picture to enlarge). His coolness, calmness and ability. To me, he is always the No. 1 espada. How much I ached when he died after the battle with Ichigo. Who is your favourite character? Hitsugaya? Byakuya? Grimmjow? Rukia?

N bleach is now having an interesting twist. the long awaited battle between Aizen, Gin against the Captains n Ichigo. Aizen is just soooooo strong and powerful. Aizen 藍染的鏡花水月實在是很恐怖. I guess Ichigo's dad will appear somewhere and help.

CNY is just around the corner. 新年快樂啦。祝大家虎虎生威,虎年好運!

倒楣

不知近來幹什麼,做什麼東西都不是很順利。

拔牙根(總共三個),兩個拔了剩下一個把拔不到。還被教授嘮叨了幾次。要我常過來練習。

辛苦安排的預約,病人盡然生病了沒來。

昨晚幫忙朋友們的表演,把外套放在更衣室,忙完後回來盡然找不到。又得花一筆買個sale的。

書包和衣服拿去洗,竟然發現有隻筆,TMD 我的一些衣服沾了ink。 TMD呀。我的一個常穿的衣服不能穿了。

去圖書館,盡然忘了學生卡,白跑一趟。

這楣氣,請快點離開我吧。我日子過的有點辛苦呀。讓我好過點吧。

skiiiiiiiiiiiiii

was reading a blog about this newspaper writer who has gone to Switzerland to do a skiing instructor course.

how that made me miss skiiing! and how I would love to improve my own skiing technique.

Me and some of my close friends had a discussion about going skiing sometime after we work. really hope that comes to plan and we get things booked... can't wait.

this was the blog i was reading about the ski:

A lot of them were taking a gap year after their A-level study or after they finished their degree. How I wish I had done something more exciting during my 9 months break b4 coming to liverpool. I would:
1) join the raleigh expedition in Sabah for 12 weeks
2) yes... GO AND LEARN SKIING for another 12 weeks.
would have been fabulous.

I should plan better for things in the future! what i really want to do, and what i can achieve!

p/s: more snowing today! good thing it's not accumulating. quite cold tho!
