THREE WEEKS since my last post??? uhoh, Someone's dropping the ball!!

CHRISTMAS is around the corner!! Namely 4 days away, have I done all my Christmas shopping? Afraid not, I have a little less than 10 left!! But I usually work best under pressure, been like that the last couple years, so I think I can do it! haha....

Bought two Christmas Albums last night at an HMV by Impulse, Alvin and the Chipmunks Christmas Album and Frank Sinatra, yes, Frank Sinatra's Christmas Album.....

Couple days ago, was at my department's Christmas Party, it was really fun and chilled as it was only about 10 ppl or so. Totally enjoyed it. After that, I met up with a couple friends for a little stroll at the legislature, it was really nice with all the Christmas Lights and all, they needed some Christmas Music playing though, and that would make it that much nicer.

I kinda want to go skating, Skating Tmo, not hockey. It's been a while since I've done that and would be kinda nice to start again.

Speaking of hockey. The Edmonton Oilers, we can't seem to in regulation, but at least we are getting some extra points each night. We are not doing as bad as we were the beginning of the season. Now we have a healthy team ish, and I think its high time we do some damage!! GO OILERS GO!

Some of my friends are now on Vacation in HK and what not, I am so envious! Must be so fun to be travelling there at this time since it is getting cold here again. But it's ok, next year, hopefully February, I'll be at Vegas having fun! Always wanted to go there!!

Work has been quite nice, really chillaxed and easy going, although some of the work I am doing is tedious and boring, it has to get done.

hmm...
Some games I've been working on:
- Call of Duty 4 (PS3)
- Assassin's Creed (PS3)
- Zelda Phantom Hourglass(DS)
- Elite Beat Agent (DS)
Obviously with work and all going out and stuff, I don't have much time to work on these games much, but I am working on it slowly. Playing Phantom Hourglass more than the other ones because its handheld and I can pretty much bring it to places.

Speaking of games, I bought a new DS LITE. The Zelda Edition!! It's Gold in Colour and it has the link symbols in front... I <3 it a long time!!

Some Movies I am hoping I get to watch:
- I am Legend
- Alvin and the Chipmunks
- National Treasure 2
- August Rush
- The Golden Compass
- No Country for Old Men
- MAYBE (P.S. I love you)
That's quite a bit of movie to hack through, wonder how it is going to happen....they actually made another Alien Vs predator movie...WHY???

That's probably all I can think of right now, I'll add more if I think of any....

If I don't blog before Christmas, MERRY CHRISTMAS and a Happy New Year

Back to watching movies....
After quite the long haul without watching much movies(It's not like there's a lot of blockbuster movie to watch anyways), I've been watching a few movies lately.

First movie I saw after the summer was Fred Claus. Yes, a Christmas Movie in November, quite an awesome idea no? hmm, the movie itself was ok I guess, can't expect much from a kids/christmas movie. Predictable and what not, however, it did give me some christmas spirit and I wanted to go shopping afterwards.....

Enchanted has a very old school disney feel to it, one of the more recent Disney movies to carry the themes of its old cartoons. I have to say, watching this movie really gave me nostalgic feeling. It's like I was transported back to my childhood and watched all these classic once again.

Dan in real life was not what we had expected it to be. With Steve Carrell(40 year old virgin) and Dane Cook (Good luck chuck), we thought it would be the senseless comedy that is usual to them. Apparently not, this movie was a lot more serious kind of comedy and I actually quite enjoyed it. However, it would be considered a chick flick, but hey, it was really funny regardless.

So, the last 3 movies i saw were chick flicks and a kids flick. Can't wait for National Treasure 2 to come out so that there's some action movies in the mix. Need some testosterone movies in my system.....
