current addiction: lie to me
Tuesday, February 23, 2010i am glued to lie to me ever since i catched one episode on fox channel. at first, it was only the title that got my attention. a few episodes and i’m addicted. i bought the dvd which unfortunately was not dependable. good thing that one of my officemates had copies of seasons 1 and 2. wohoo! so far i have finished 6 episodes more to go. i’m so excited. haha.
ghost story
Tuesday, February 16, 2010i’m the kind of person who stays out of any topic related to ghosts. i’m duwag and i have a malikot imagination which becomes a deadly combination when it comes to supernatural topics. to preserve my sanity and more importantly so i can close my eyes when i take a bath (haha!), i do not engage in any horror topics, movies, conversations, etc.
suprisingly, i was able to read her fearful symmetry from cover to cover. this book was also written by the author of time traveler’s wife. it’s not bad but it’s not good either. i liked time traveler’s wife more.
anyway, i just wanted to track how many books i’m going to read this year. this is book #1 for 2010. 
new birthday
Tuesday, February 9, 2010thank goodness hk immigration did not have me deported. hahaha! everything went well and i had so much fun. i’ve heard not so nice stories about immigration experiences that i was really anxious about it. well, there is really a huge difference between immigration in hk and ours. immigration people in our airport are very friendly and welcomes guest with open arms as if telling them you can stay here as long as you want which is in stark contrast to immigration in hk. they don’t smile at all. they ask questions about how long you’d be staying, how much is your money, etc.
anyway, every time i would be going out of the country i would be using a different birthday. my passport states 6 instead of 7 and i’m just too lazy to have it fixed. *sigh*
i tried to apply for the e-passport but the man behind the window was too strict. first he had issues about my surname. and then he told me that to have my birthday corrected i had to seek the help from a notary public. well, that’s too much of a hassle for me since i had to go to work that day. it’s irritating that it was dfa’s fault in the first place but i’m the one who has to go through all the hassles to have it corrected. it is not quality service after all.
