Japanese revision - 日本語の復習
Posted by Hong | Under Life 生活点滴
I’m going to continue back my japanese lesson this friday that i stopped once before.
If i don’t start to do some revision before i join the class i’m sure i’ll have problems in catching up the lesson because i already stopped the studies for 2 years plus.
这个星期五我会回到夜校继续我之前停下的日文课程。
我知道如果不做些复习的话就一定会有跟不上的问题出现，因为我已经停课两年多了。

Trip to Singapore
Posted by Hong | Under Life 生活点滴, Photography 摄影
Just had a sudden trip to Singapore last weekend.
Thanks to a friend of mine, i travelled to Singapore fast and comfortable with his car. 
At first i thought the highway and custom must be congested due to the Raya holiday, but surprisingly the traffic is extremely good and we reached Singapore with just merely a 3 hours of driving.
上周末来了一个很突然的新加坡之旅。
十分感谢友人的好心，我可以乘搭舒适与快速的顺风车抵达新加坡。
刚开始时还以为会在关卡和高速公路上难免会有些阻塞，因为开斋节的因故。可是还挺出奇的顺畅，只用了三小时就抵达了。

Games Convention Asia 2009
Posted by Hong | Under Event 活动, Game 电玩
Sharing some of the photos i snapped from Games Convention Asia 2009, Suntec Singapore.
The first thing that came into my mind when i heard about this convention is something similar to Tokyo Game Show.
Some how i disappointed after checking on the exhibitor’s list. After all the place i’m going is Singapore, not Tokyo.
Exhibitors are mainly online games distributors like IAH Games, MOL, New Era Entertainment and Garena etc.
There are also some booths that show a few latest upcoming titles for XboX and PS3 from local game distributors.
The exhibition size isn’t too huge but yet the audiences are able to walk around freely, which is good for a big sweater like me.
Unfortunately not much of photos i get from this event because i was pissed, due to a staff who stopped me to photograph their booth while i’m trying to get a very first photo of this event.

Super Import Nights 2009
Posted by Hong | Under Event 活动, Photography 摄影
Went to an after market car show at Singapore Expo called “Super Import Nights 2009″.
They got imported cars, imported parts and yeah, imported chicks as well.
Main purpose of going to this show isn’t about the cars over there, i treated it as a good chance to practice my skill on human portraits with tight budget. Hence, what i really concern is the quality and quantity of the models.
Overall i’m quite satisfied, with S$10 i get a chance to snap photos of imported models from USA, Thailand and Taiwan. Not to mention, Nikon as the main sponser of the imaging gives all Nikon camera users special priority to go nearer front of the stage to get better shots.
This post isn’t really related to ACG, but it’s part of my development in my life that i would like to share with everyone.
Enjoy the photos and C&C are welcomed.

Parcel from Japan - 日本来的邮包
Posted by Hong | Under Life 生活点滴, Minorin みのりん, Seiyuu 声优
Just received 2 parcels from Amazon.co.jp today. !!
First of all, i’m really impressed by shipping service from Amazon. I ordered the items on Sunday and able to receive it 2 days after, good job to Amazon and FedEx. (The shipping fees are quite expensive so it’s reasonable for the quality of service :p)
今天刚收到两个从Amazon.co.jp寄来的邮包。：） ！！
首先不得不提的是我对Amazon的邮寄服务感到十分满意。上个星期日订购的物品竟然能够在两天后的今天收到，在此向Amazon和FedEx致敬。（不过我付了挺高昂的邮费，这样的服务是应有的吧：p）

Nikon Speedlight SB-600!
Posted by Hong | Under Photography 摄影
Just bought a new toy for my D90, a Nikon Speedlight SB-600.
It’s a light weighted, wireless triggered external flash that supported Nikon’s Creative Lighting System.
Bought this to learn and experiment on Strobism techniques and take the studio alike portraits. :p

FFXIII发售日决定！FFXIII Release date confirmed!
Posted by Hong | Under Game 电玩
呵呵，让我期待已久的FF13发售日终终终于决定啦！！
日文版的发售日期是12月17日，而美版的就要等到2010年春才会有。价格为8800日元。
这个家伙可是等了它好久了。我啊，买PS3可是只为了玩这个游戏（和播BD）。
在整个FF系列里虽然我玩得不多，只玩了7、8、9。
但一看到这个最新的13，心里就有一股很“热血”的感觉。就如当年为了FF7把PS1拿下的情形一样。
The long awaited FF13 release date is confirmed!
Japanese version is going to release 17th December 2009 which is soon, and US/English version need to wait until 2010 spring.
Although within the FF series i only played 7, 8 and 9. But after seeing the FF13 trailers, i got a strong feel that telling me “yes, this is the game that i’m looking”. And that’s the main reason i bought PS3, just like 10 years back when i buy PS1 for FF7.

Short Conclusion - Parade Live & Message2.5 “Grateful Days”
Posted by Hong | Under Minorin みのりん, Seiyuu 声优
今天把みのりん的Live Parade给看完了。
整个演唱会是好的没话说了。本人最喜欢唱蒼い孤島时的白衣装扮和みのりん在唱Lush March前教导在场的各位挥动旗帜，超可爱的！！
看到最后时有种不懂怎么形容的感觉，在感动之余还带有些失落及无奈，在想为何自己没有办法亲临到现场。
只能用电视来观赏的确是有些可惜, 好想到现场啊。。。
Finished Minorin’s Live Parade today.
The concert is really good no doubt. I really like the white dress she wore when she sing Aoi Kotou and extremely cute when she teach audiences how to swing the flag before Lush March. How i wish i’m able to go there and experience the concert live, only watch it with TV is never good enough.
