Just managed to finish the game Aliens Colonial Marines. If you know of the Alien movie you would be familiar with it. This game also gives you the surprise when you get Corporal Hicks, the marine from the movie Aliens. He was supposed to be dead but if this is a confirm canon story, then he isn't really died. You will have him as a supporting character in your battles helping you. It is the ending that is frustrating. There is a "cliffhanger" feel to it as if there will be a sequel. Hope they get the sequel material out soon.

Finally got 2 of my wisdom tooth removed.... It was.... an experience of all kind of feel including pain... Right now the area hurts but in a numbing raw feeling and is not painful. I removed the cotton that aim to absorb any blood that still lingers but it seems to hurt more. I haven't ate much. Had a heavy meal before the extraction. After that can't say there is any appetite for food. Ate a kit kat bar. Hopefully it improves and I have to wait for courage again for the next extraction...

Went to take the mac os exam. It was easier, which is unexpected. Thanks to getting the questions and studies them by hard, I expect the unexpected different question but it didn't happen. At least this is one time going for an exam feels good. :D

Every year national day you will always get to see these colourful flags hanging at lamp posts. This year there are none. All there is are those strange posters of people. While it is important to know the message of those poster, I rather look at the colourful flags.

Have you been to the new Suntec exitbition hall? There is now the The Popular Gadgets and Popular / Borders is having a book sale there too. It is to showcase the books that will come back in with the new Borders. So anything special? I would say none. Even the crowds isn't that impressive. I could do a fast walk without much obsticles. These books are either not in my interest or they are easily be found in MPH or Times. So if Borders really want to make it they better buck up and not just rely on brand power.

Borders Bookshop is coming back. Except that this time it is part of Popular Bookshop group. Borders, in the early days gave a relaxing environment and it got many books available for browsing. Popular bookshop is a more family oriented place that sells assesment books and stationary and school textbooks. It just remains to be seen how different can borders be. There was Harris and Prologue Bookshop, also part of Popular. Harris closed while Prologue is having a closing down sale. If they are banking on the Borders name, it will not be enough. They need to have the books, not just any books but books that was what made Borders. Hopefully it could survive the long run, regardless the type of books there.
