Midweek Roundup (Been a While!)
First, welcome to all my Rizalista and Existentialist readers! Someday, I'll let you shrink me!
1. Disneyland HK was overall a B+. There were only two rides worth doing, Space Mountain and the lasertag inspired Buzz Lightyear ride, where I scored 740,000 points.
2. Was in the 2nd largest Louis Vuitton store in the world (next door to where we stayed). People were leaving with bags after bags. I left with nothing. Cecile would be ashamed.
3. Got a Macbook Black. It's really er, black. My Powerbook G4 lasted me about four years, and the Black has about twice the power than that. So, this should last a lifetime.
4. The European Championships kick off next weekend, and there will be plenty of long nights. I have the best friends in the world! They married women who love football more than they do! After a long debate, I have Germany and Spain in the Finals (preceded by a scintillating France v. Spain quarterfinal). Spain will win, on penalties.
5. I need some cool posters for the office. Send me some.
6. Been listening to a lot of classical music lately. I found that I am more productive choosing type and snapping to guides while listening to Modest Mussorgsky.
7. David Cook is the new American Idol. My mom was in tears (she was rooting for Archuleta). If he follows Chris Daughtry's career, he should have a band soon, called Cook.
8. I recently saw "Bladerunner" again. Man, Ridley Scott must have time-traveled to Hong Kong in 2008.
9. Also, saw "Superbad". And, got upgraded to First Class on the way to Hong Kong. These two events are not related.
10. Last note on Disneyland: don't bother with being picky with the food. They're all unremarkable. Better yet, just eat ice cream through the entire visit.

Tell your mom not to worry about Archuleta. He'll do well with his singing career. He needs to do some growing up along the way. Too much stardom just might spoil this for him. Either that, or the stage father he has hovering above him ;-)
Spain, you say?
Huh.
We shall see about that!
