Music & Lyrics

Went to catch a movie with my cousins over the Chinese New Year holidays. It’s the first movie I’ve watched in the cinemas in a long while.

A good decision in my books.

More Nintendo Wii, Sony Playstation 3, and XBox 360

Was in Bangkok last week and took the opportunity to check out the prices in Mah Boon Krong (MBK) centre. What I like to think of as the Bangkok equivalent of Sungai Wang.
