New Year Coming

And the new year is coming in a few more days and I havent even been posting at all over the past weeks! So many things came up.. My sister came to Singapore for her holidays and I’ve been out practically every day taking her to the tourist spots of Singapore. Pretty darn tiring I tell ya! But its for the good ofcourse :) I enjoy doing so, but every now and then you’re glad to be able to sit down and check your emails, watch tv or update your records of stuff.. But for the time being.. NOT YET!

Christmas in the tropics is still a thing I have to get used to and fake snow didnt contribute to that :) We had a lovely dinner with my old land-lady and exchanged a few gifts.. For christmas, we made a nice greeting card and both my gf and myself put in quite a share of effort to making it look nice.

Then a few days ago we decided to go for “Foot Reflexology”, a Chinese medication where they massage your feet and legs and make them feel light as a bird. For an hour I did, but apparently the cream was infected with some bacteria, causing my whole legs to be covered in itchy, painful, swollen and infected spots making it difficult to sleep, walk, sit or lie down. It’s frustrating and will probably take another few days to cure too! Lucky me eh?

Well, for now I’d better get my backside in front of the tv or I’m missing out on another night of relaxing so with the new year coming up soon, I hope I can fulfill my new year’s resolution: blog more!

So.. Blog ya later!

Xtrem Snowboarding

And yet another contestant in the 2003 FlashInTheCan contests, and in my opinion extreme cool gameplay! Really addictive and very fun to play is: Xtrem Snowboarding! Some weird animal needs to speed up on the snow-slopes, jump a ramp and then make cool looking stunts by following the displayed path! Be sure to finish the path in time or you’re in for a rough landing!

Anyways, concluding this lovely video is his latest hit: Lick the Children..

Dinner is on and you’re the cook at a leading restaurant! Make sure all the waiters get their plates of food in time and make sure you don’t drop a plate! Similar gameplay to the bartender serving beers but I always loved the game :) It’s simple, addicting and in this case a bit annoying to play every now and then, but definitely worth the try!

Miserable Failure

I’m sure most of you know Google, our beloved search-engine. And we all know that sometimes it sometimes returns results that we didnt expect when we entered our keywords. Sometimes the results are hilarious, and here’s one for you:

Type “miserable failure” and hit the “Im feeling lucky” button or simply look at the first hit: Yeps, you see that right: George W Bush’s White House webpage! Hmm guess that that was a miserable failure of Google there, wasnt it? Either that, or many people in the world share this same opinion about Bush’s performance as President of the United States :)
