Concluding Post - The Songs

I still find it hard to believe that my 23 months of fun-filled, exciting and challenging, career is coming to an end soon. It's been a long journey, and now I'm at its final days. The last 30 or so days.

So, from today onwards, I'll try to do a series of "concluding" posts to sum up my 23 months of exhilarating and fulfilling life.

And what better way to start then with some heavenly music?

...

Throughout these 23 months, I've "written" over 30 songs dedicated to depict my illustrious career. Some of them are "complete remakes" of the entire songs, others consist of only the chorus, and some only a few verses.

Most of these songs were born when I was "staring into blank space for hours", and these songs have followed me through hours and hours of my life during such times. Some of them are really my heart-felt words, others are just plain humorous jokes.

The ideas for these songs came from everywhere; people in my life, the environment, the time of the days, special occasions, etc... A few are initially thought of by others, and I just borrowed and modified their ideas. Some help to contribute and add on to certain lines in the song to make it even more touching.

Listed below are my personal top 10 and a short description, listed in chronological order. Note that due to legal and copyright issues, I am unable to write down the lyrics of the songs, but I'll write down the title. In brackets are the the original title of the songs.

1. 那 ## 对我说 (那女孩对我说)
Created in the first 3 months of my career. Originally thought of by the talented composers of T3, and I later borrowed the concept and created my first song. This song describes the importance of safety briefing...

2. 一年半以后 (一千年以后)
Created in the 6 - 7 months of my career. It's one of the shortest, yet also one of the most emotional and melancholic . At that time, it totally reflected my feelings of "What will happen in 1 & 1/2 year time?" To this day, I still find it heart-warming to recite this tune...

3. ### GOODBYE (KISS GOODBYE)
Created about 9 months after entering the Kindergarten, this song commemorates the leaving of our "Great One" and our dire circumstances at that time. Considered to be my first complete song.

4. 借口 (借口)
Created around the same time as the previous song, this is a song of great agony and pain. It was written during one of the toughest times of the Kindergarten.

5. 一年 (十年)
Written to commemorate 12 months of my career and remain 1 of my favourite to date. This chorus sums up 12 months of my life, and I also took the chance to congratulate those that have graduated by then.

6. 他一定 ###### #(他一定很爱你)
If there was a song that can describe the situation at the Kindergarten during the Nov/Dec 07 period any better, this is the one. A song that is so true to life and close to my heart...

7. 我昏 (黄昏)
Written about 15 months into my career and never released, this song recount the sorrowful times when "staring into blank space". It is also directed at one of our most "popular individual" at that time...

8. 童话 (童话)
A beautiful and melancholic tune, partly dedicated to one of the greatest "heroes" of the Kindergarten. It was written during Dec 07, but was remade recently to add in my own story.

9. 天意 (天意)

Written at my 19th month to commemorate the leaving of my friends, and my pain of being left behind...

10. 我快 ### (我只在乎你)
Possibly my final song in my career. It was conceptualize very very early in the first 3 months, but It wasn't until now that I can recite it with such powerful emotions...

Other Memorable Ones...

1. 从天堂到地狱 (从台北到北京)
2. 哎哎哎 (爱爱爱)
3. 小 # (小薇)
4. ####方式 (关怀方式)
5. 你怎么知道我难过 (你怎么舍得我难过)
6. 第一次 (第一次 )

Many Many Things

I've did many many things, but I still got many many things to do!

1) University Stuffs
Fill up the forms, submit the online photos, get the account number, do the declaration, apply for the tuition grant, take note of the important dates like the Engilsh test and the Welcome Ceremony (which isn't what I expected in the first place).

First, the network account names really sucks; they are just a bunch of numbers and letters jumbled together. And by the way, I don't understand why Ben don't like the "Wooo Zun" name... I think it sounds damn cool.

2) The Quiz

Last week, I wasted nearly 2 hours of my time to do a horrendous quiz. Most of it were ok, but I spent more than 30 mins on 1 of them. Why can't they just give me the correct answer when I got it wrong? Or, at least tell me which question I got wrong. NO. That would be too easy. They had to make you do the ENTIRE QUIZ all over if you get 1 question wrong. WHAT THE ****?

3) The Camera
Yeah I finally got it. I don't know if I made the right decision (going for a less "reputable" brand), but it was based on the dealer's recommendation, and I trusted HWZ reviews a lot personally. It's a newer model, and looks better when I compared them side by side. It also have slightly better specifications and is the same price. So I guess I took a risk there by going for something "extra-ordinary".

Anyway, I used it for a few times and find it super beginner friendly. Everything is easy to access, no complicated hidden functions and not that much settings to tweak.. It can be a good or bad thing depends on what you want - more control or more simplicity. For a first-timer like me, I guess that's a good thing. I managed to master almost everything in like 30 mins. Almost everything is automated for you... haha. I think even my mother can use it with no problem.

4) The Agent
These 2 weeks I had to deal with an agent that's push selling me a product. Don't really want to say more, but I learnt a lot from this experience. It made me realized what I've been overlooking all the while and now I'm determine to do something about it.

AND THE 2 KILLER TASKS BELOW...

5) Plan The Damn Schedule

EVERYTHING turned out differently from what I originally expected. HA! What to do? LLST. Now I have re-plan everything. And some more still got people want to switch here switch there, change here change there. Think I very free AH.

#%!@$*%^*&%@#$@#$...

6) Spring Cleaning
This is what I've been doing for the past 3 hours, but I'm not even 1/4 done. Guess I have to spread it out over a few days. I think it's high time I get myself together and repack everything, organize everything in the house. I need to get everything in order and up and running again.

First, I'm going to get rid of the old stuffs. Next, I'll reorganize the old stuffs that I still want into packs and dump them into "cold storage".

After that, I'm going to reshuffle my entire comic collection. And my CDs and Albums collections. And the most difficult one; Everything in my computer. I reckoned I need about 1 week to do this.

7) Other Things
What else? Yes yes... cancel the darn Viwawa insurance (Just wrote and sent the letter this morning). Go for appointment at AU. Settle the donation card....

...

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Why I see other people so free... :(

And it got the best "switch off your phone" clip ever.

Spore Creator Editor

The Spore Creator is finally out. Played around with it for a while and created my first creature ever (Just anyhow one lah)....

Named it Barbarsaur for whatever reason. It was quite a fun experience. LOL.
Barbarsaur is a really friendly and cute "dino-like" creature, protected with rocky body and spikes on his back. He attacks with his "ferocious" bite. This picture shows Barbarsaur with his "gina", little barbarsaur.



Unfortunately, I forgot to save when I quit the program -_- ... Now I lost the first ever creature I created.

...

Anyway, went to browse around youtube to see some creatures other more "talented" people created...

And...WOW. All I can say it...

Humans imagination are limitless.

...

...

The Penis Monster


The HumanHead


Haunter



...

Wow...

The trial is extremely limited (only about 25% of the parts enabled)...

Now I'm really tempted to get the full version of the editor... -_-

And I couldn't wait for the game release!!!

What choice would you make?

When you're faced with an overwhelmingly strong enemy...

Someone 10 times, 100 times stronger than you.

He uses his AK47 and keep firing at the wall you're hiding behind.

You only had a knife in your hand...



Do you...

1) Charge out and attempt a suicidal attack?

2) Continue hiding behind the wall, hoping that his ammo will run out before the wall collapses?

...

...

Haiz...

I am so depressed.

Someone teach me what to do...

...

Somebody please help me...

...

How can winning be possible against such overwhelming odds?

Legend Of Kay Kingdom VII

LEGEND OF KAY KINGDOM VII - The Great War

IMPORTANT NOTE: This story is purely fictitious. Any resemblance to reality (people living or dead, places past or present) is purely coincidental.

View Legend of Kay Kingdom content page.

5th Year of the 7th Eclipse...

500,000 of undead legions marched through the gates of darkness, sending trembles across the lands. Everywhere the infernal legion went, thousands of homes were destroyed and countless humans were massacred. Terrifying screams of women and children echoed in the air as the Kay Waters became a lake of crimson blood overnight.

The numerous villages and towns of Kay Kingdom were in no position to defend themselves against the forces of darkness, and in less than a month, the 3 main routes of the Kay Kingdom come under heavy siege.

Joyless Lands

The lands have been under the demons attack for hundreds of years, but never before had the Kay Knights faced such an overwhelming numbers. Endless waves of undead consisting of zombies, wraiths, ghosts and witches descended from the skies and swept across the Joyless Lands. It was a terrifying sight!

The strength of the undead legions skyrocketed from 40,000 to an estimated 150,000! In addition, the demons simultaneously launch attacks on the "Mt.Candy" and "Candy Turnabout" (2 vital defence posts in the Joyless Lands) with over 120,000 of monstrous creatures. This was when the term "Joyless Lands" became equivalent to "Hell On Earth"...

Savage Waters
Undead reinforcements consists of swamp and sea monsters of the deep, such as the deadly hydras and piranhas totalling 90,000 (up from original 20,000). To further pressure the Knights, The undead made a pact with the "Pirates of the High Seas", (Totalling near 120,000) to aid in the siege by patrolling the nearby waters.

Luckily, the rich merchants of the region are usually able to keep those pirates under control using large amount of bribes. In comparison, this place is the easiest to defend out of the 3. However, it becomes a totally different situation when the Chilling Serpent strikes...

Evil Mortuary Road
A place that stinks of rotting corpses.... the 150,000 (Up from original 20,000) undead legion besiege the guardpost with their unholy armies of cerebus and hellhounds...The legendary flying beast known as the "Chilling Gargoyle" can sometimes be seen patrolling the region, tearing apart any living beings that is unlucky enough to be spotted.

When that time arrives, only a handful of elites known as the "Gods of War" are able to bestow the necessary protection for this place... However, even gods are human beings (神也是人)...

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This was the start of "The Great War".

And once it starts, it never ends.

For the next few hundred years, and until records of the Kay Kingdom cease to exists, there were no signs of the war ending. The people of Kay Kingdom will forever live under the threat of war...

No matter how much monsters the Imperials manage to kill, no matter how much demons the knights manage to slain and how much spirits the priests manage to dispel... more and more will just spawn from the portal of darkness. They came in swarms and in waves, each time in greater numbers and each time in greater strength...

...

It is endless, and it is hopeless...

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Years passed...

By then, the Circle was just a shadow of its former self. Gone were the unity, and gone were the harmony...

The Knights started to break apart one by one. At first, one knight had to take on 10 enemies. As their comrades began to fall one by one, the pressure on the remaining ones increased tremendously. The Knights have to take 1 to 20, then to 50, then to 100. As the knight take on more enemies, the more likely he is to fall. When he fall, the remaining knights take on even more enemies. It is an vicious downward spiral for the Knights.There were fewer and fewer knights, yet the monsters only kept increasing.

At this point, one of the greatest philosophers from the Kay Kingdom created what would later be known to the modern world as "The Table Theory".

The knights were plagued with illness and injuries... From the top to the very bottom, none of them were spared. They were on the verge of destruction...

Even worse, many people would take advantage of their own comrades during such dire times in exchange for personal gains...

And of course, such people will not be spared from being inducted into the "Hall of 8 Immortals"...

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

5. Love Immortal (情仙)
Background: When the love of his life left him, he decides to unleash his wrath upon this cruel world...

During his final days, he became one of the most feared character in the Kay Kingdom...

Description: Combining the highest form of arts in both schools, he is able to "cook ingredients without the ingredients realizing that they're being cooked (让被切的菜不知道自己被切)". It is truly a terrifying technique that only the most experienced warriors are able to detect.

[I] 舔吸吞喝 - Lick, Suck, Swallow & Drink...?
[T] 以柔克刚 - Uses a soft approach to "persuade" a person to do his bidding...

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

At this time, Chief Kingfisher, who had been constantly fending off assaults from the Evil Empire, received an Imperial Edict to hand over all military power over the Kay Knights. The Chief, realizing deep inside that the Circle is nearing its end, decided to make the best decision for himself...

He left behind the the place he established from scratch, and the generals he fought alongside with. He left in search of greater riches and glory, leaving behind the knights to fend for themselves...

Without the mighty shield protecting the people... what will happen to the knights?

...

The knights however, have got something more important to worry about....

A nefarious spirit being, known as the "Tormented Soul", had been released into this world by the Evil Lord. This spirit, also known as the "Possessor", is said to be the root of all evil. When he was alive, he was already depraved of humanity, committing all sort of heinous acts imaginable. After he dies, the Evil Lord subdued his spirit and "natured" him...He was infused with the most extreme and negative energies in the dark world, his soul corrupted and his heart rotten to the core...

He now returns to take revenge on the world....

The Tormented Soul will possessed a target body, infesting it, controlling its mind and body. The victim will be ripped of his conscience and have no idea what he is doing. It does not matter how or what the person was like... Once the soul possessed his body, he will live for the sole purpose of causing destruction, and he will turn into a deadly demonic beast...

...

Now...

...

This spirit...

This demon child of the Evil Lord, has found its way into the Kay Kingdom...

Into the Imperial Stables...

...

And into the Kay Knights...

...

Who did he choose?

...

...

1 of the 7 Kay Generals.

Dentist + PC Show + Kungfu Panda!

Been a long long day... really tired. Lucky I got a "long weekend".

1) Dentist Visit

Morning, went to visit the dentist with Johnny... and burn a BIG hole in my pocket. Share a cab there, but forgot to exchange for the entry tickets. In the end, have to make a big U-turn to get the entry tickets. What's more, have to endure the taxi driver attitude problem. Most funny was when we tried to use our Kindergarten pass to gain entrance... Haha. I think we've been "trapped" for so long that our mentality is that the Kindergarten pass will get us anywhere.

Going back home that time, suddenly heavy downpour... Take cab again to go out!!! Wah Lau... all my red notes gone liao lor...

Both of us got a good "lobang" after the dentist visit, so we called a book an appointment to get rid of our "knowledgeable tooth". The booking process was quite funny, especially when Johnny called 2nd time to get a "better appointment date".

2) PC Show

Went out in the afternoon with Rex to help him in selecting a laptop.

As for me, I just wanted to look around, learn more about laptops as I help him to select from the various models. Hopefully this experience can help when I actually get one for myself later on. My 2nd aim was of course to get a digicam. Originally wanted to get it at the show, but think Charleston got some "lobang" on this... so I'll just trust him... haha.

As for Rex one, he brought the F8SN in the end (I strongly recommend to him base on Glenn recommendation)... haha. Lots of free gifts sia...

3) Kungfu Panda

Evening, went to watch Kungfu Panda with Charleston!

Awesome show man, and that's a rare comment from someone that don't really like Animation.

I'll give it a solid 4 stars for its incredible animation, awesome fighting scenes and hilarious comedy sequences. It's an enjoyable experience right from the start to the end.

Basically, the storyline is based on the same "never gets old" solid formula. A "untalented and useless" main character undergo training to become the greatest hero, and defeat the evil guy.

From the tortoise, the shifu (I'm not sure what animal it is... mouse?), to the 5 heroes and even Tai Lung; Each one is unique and special. There are so many scenes I love in the movie. Here are my top 3:

- Tai Lung escape from the Prison (Best1000 arrows raining)
- Tai Lung VS 5 Heroes (Superb fighting scene and music!)
- Panda VS Shifu (Godly chopstick battle)



So, what's missing? As you can see, I didn't mention the last battle. As good as it is, I don't think it stands up to the 3 battles I mentioned above.

Personally, I felt it was too comedic. The battle before the last, Shifu Vs Tai Lung, gives a darker and gloomy feel. After the Panda appears, it switch to an entirely different atmosphere, which I felt wasn't a good thing.

It's the FINALE. It is the final clash between good and evil, and they decide to make it out to be some sort of joke. Tai Lung lost all his "evil awesomeness" at the end, and became a "laughing stock". He gets sits on by the Panda, bites his own tails and gets tossed around like some thrash. It kind of ruin the amazing image he built up all the way till the 2nd last battle.

In my own opinion, the final battle could have been way way better. It should be a "ultimate fight between good and evil", not "a hilarious thrashing". I admit it is funny, but it ruins the ending fight at the same time.

Some other things...

- Why Shifu didn't use his "little finger tapping" ultimate against Tai Lung?
- How tortoise died (too old?)? He manage to defeat Tai Lung in 3 strokes leh... damn power.
- Tai Lung "acupuncture freezing" skill doesn't work on Panda because he's too fat? A bit forced leh... -_-
- What's up with the dragon scroll... a bit no link... -_-

Anyway... overall I would say this very entertaining movie is definitely worth your money. Suitable for ages 6 to 60.

Oh yeah, I love the twist at the end... when Shifu slowly closes his eyes and says he's finally having peace...

P.S: This show kind of reminds me of "WOW Tales of the Past 3"...

PC Show Lookout

Wah Lau... The PC Show is coming up in just a few days, and I still haven't decide what to get.

I've saved a long time for this day... and there are like 101 things I wanted to buy...

I shaln't bother writing about minor stuffs, but here are 2 major items I am considering...

1) Laptop


This is the most expensive and most difficulty item to get. Or rather, not to get. I didn't thought about it until they mentioned it. I supposed the poly guys are all getting one?

Firstly, I'm a complete newbie when it comes to laptop. I have no idea how the specifications of a laptop stands against that of a PC. Like 2 graphics cards, but one is the "mobility" version. How big exactly is the difference. What price justify what performance. Totally no idea.

And I'm very lazy (and busy) to waste time doing research on this. I have no idea how much to spend on this (Is $2K too little?) or what to get. I do have a vague idea of what I want in it though, if I get one.

Firstly, I don't think I want to get a "gaming laptop". To me, a laptop is NEVER for gaming. It is just not a fulfilling experience no matter how powerful the laptop is. This is especially after I started gaming on a 22' Widescreen. A laptop is good for playing stuffs like Viwawa and Solitaire, but not for full fledge games. Thus, my mentality is, "no point spending an extra thousand to get a gaming laptop". I rather use that extra cash to upgrade my PC.

Then again then again... I need one that is good enough for whatever school work that I have to do. So, how much is "good enough"? How good it has to be to not lag? What programs will I be using at school and what are the requirements? I have NO freaking idea.

So, unless there's some heavenly deal, I'll just be keeping a look out instead of actually buying one at the show. Maybe I'll make do with my brother's school laptop first (even though it's 3 year old NTU product) and try to get one before Sept's Comex.

2) Digital Camera

This is a "must get"... I've been delaying its purchase for over 9 months already. And I'm tired of "begging others" for photos.

Lots of new models have came out since the last time I checked, and the old ones have dropped steeply in price.

Basically, my budget is very flexible for this item, so I'll just get the one that give me the best bang for bucks.

It's the first time I'm actually buying a digicam, so I'm looking at one that's beginner friendly (with all the image stabilization & eye correction stuffs), one that's simple and easy to use. Most importantly, it must be ultra ultra compact with a good optical zoom (4x). I'm actually looking for those that can zoom while recording video... it's quite a rare feature but I've managed to find a few models that meet all these criteria.

The only problem is I don't know their exact prices and I haven't tested them hands-on yet. What I know is that they received very good reviews~

So I'll most definitely be getting it during this period, regardless of whether it's at the show or not.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If I have to extra budget, I may look into luxury stuffs like PSP & PMP as well...

Hope I get a good deal~

June Graduation Dinner

What an insane yet emotional dinner it was... for me at least. It marks the end of a chapter in the school's history... and for me, it's a lot of mixed feelings...

On one hand, I felt the joyousness of the June guys. On the other, the melancholy mood of the guys that will continue their journey at the school... I'm like mixed in between the 2 of them. I don't know which side I'm actually on. I'm confused - I'm delighted yet miserable, I'm excited yet indifferent at the same time. It's crazy...

Over 15 months ago, all of us enrolled into the Kindergarten together. We've really been through a lot, through the good and the bad times. We've seen batch after batch joined us in this long and arduous journey. We've seen not only the changes of the school, but also the changes of the people around us.

Now, I shall be frank - I don't like everyone at the Kindergarten. There are some people that I just dislike. There are some whom behaviour I simply can't approve of. There are some that I simply just can't get along with. And It's not just me. I'm sure everyone have someone they dislike at the school. Like I mentioned in the post about relations though, your "working relations" does NOT NECESSARY affect your personal relationships with them as friends. However, many times, your working attitude CAN AND WILL affect your personal relations...

Then again...

...

On this night, it doesn't matter.

On this night, we came together to celebrate the graduation of our friends and our peers.

We came together to witness a group of people moved from the present to the past, into the historical pages of the school.

People from all different batches have gathered to mark this historic milestone.

...

This is the biggest gathering we ever had, and probably ever will have. I find it hard to believe that we will ever have so many people come out together again...

Participants includes: (The Past) Jun Xian, Mun Wei, Zhi Hao, Baxter, Wei Qi, Yao Peng, Charleston, Anthony, (Present) Me, Wei Hao, Jonathan, You Long, Joseph <+ GF> , Soon Kiat, Edwin, Shi Hao, Yun Zhen, Jansen, Benjamin, (Future) Karl, Geraint, Leon, Wei Long, Jason...

It's havoc.We were making so much noise and attracting so much attention that I'm worried that police might come. -_- We looked like we're having some kind of illegal activity.

The meal was great (but a little scarce), and it was just great to see so many people came. Almost everyone that "can be there" were there, except for a few that "fly aeroplane" and some that had to go for their "lessons". The photo taking sessions was the real highlight. We group the people into every possible categories and took photos after photos after photos. SK was the super-joker of the night with all his hilarious poses and him trying to "get involve into every single photo".

As night falls and everyone started to disperse, I really wonder if we'll ever see the June guys again. Yeah yeah... we say "next graduation" have another gathering again, but is it really possible? Hopefully bah~ (Karl already "invited" us to send him off when he's leaving Singapore...)

For the June guys... enjoy your victory.

Some words from me...

Wei Qi - The "enmity" between us cannot be resolved right now.. I don't know when or how it got started, but everytime I see you I'm damn pissed off. Always say sarcastic 风凉话 to me only... Only time can heal the deep wounds you have inflicted on me, and the hatred I bear towards you...

Jun Xian (Soh) - "Experience is the worst teacher; it gives the test before presenting the lesson." Yes... I will remember the 2 "examinations" we took together for a long long time. The "Mid Autumn" night, and of course the "T3 Decision"... and I will definitely remember the "lessons" you have taught me.

Zhi Hao - If YZ is the god, then you are the deity. I will remember you as the one that graduated 1 month earlier than you're supposed to graduate...

Baxter - Stop mixing "Ice Milo + Coke"... It freaks me out. Your "Smallville" will forever be remembered as the official series of the school.

Yao Peng - Like SK said... our taxi fares jumped from $4 to $6 after your left... Haha...take care. Let's meet up for lunch at 768 sometimes.

Charleston - No more "Eh tuck in your shirt!" crap anymore... LOL. Remember to jio us play DOTA~

Anthony - Really thanks a lot for the DVD! I think you did an awesome job. I've looked through it... and it brought back so much memories - back when we were still "ultra newbie" times... and now we all have/are going to graduate. We wouldn't have this important piece of memory without you effort. Take care~

Some of them will continue schooling, others have started working or even became their own boss...

Some will continue to "zuo bo" for some...

Whatever they decide to do, I sincerely wish them all the best~

Till we see each others again...

Wii Party Late Mystery?

Wii Party Group (WPG) - Consists of Leon, Karl, Geraint, Charleston, Wei Long, Benjamin and myself.

Wah Lau... the dinner is supposedly to start at 7pm, and somehow all of them blamed me for making the WPG for arriving late. -_- What the...?

Basically we went to Karl house first for him to wash up (Scooty and Tiny) before heading off to Geraint house for the Wii Party!

Watched Dead Silence (pretty good horror movie), played Wii Tennis, Wii Golf, Wariosmooth until we "forgot" the time...

At first, we wanted to leave at like 6pm. Unfortunately, we played the Golf (Ben, Charleston, Me) until a little past 6. Then Geraint wanted to show us the "Wario" game...

He said it's very fast and takes like only a few minutes, but after he "demonstrated" once all of us wanted to try the game.

At this point, I said "Aiya... go so early also no use. It's like Chinese Wedding Dinner, go early also wait nia..."

And so... we decided to play a "few more rounds" until it's like 6:30pm... And then, THEY decided to play the Wario Darts, which I DID NOT participate in...

It's them that keep busting the scores and had to throw again and again. LOL. So how can I be held fully accountable for WPG arriving late?

And what's more, Wei Long is busy "programming his Window Vista" according to Karl... LOL! That was like most random comment of the day.

In the end, we became one of the last group of arrived for the dinner...

Classic Japanese Game Shows Vids

The Japanese are really creative people... They produced what I called truly entertaining and innovative variety shows.

1. Takeshii Castle - This is like the ancient old school classic back in my primary school days.

Part I


Part II


2. Don't Laugh - I think Jacky Wu one is derived from this... Old video, yet never failed to make me laugh.



3. The Silent Library - Most of you probably watched it before... Yeah... Shh...



4. Super Change Change Change - I believed this is one of the best performance on the show!

Kindergarten Riddles

So many people are graduating from the Kindergarten recently. What if I meet some of them 10 years later and could no longer recognize them?

How would I know if they're really my school mates from the past if they come up to me?

In consideration of this, I've came up with 2 sets of questions. If the person can answer any one of these question, it will prove that he was once a student of this institute...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"The Cold Questions"

1. Who is Doraemon best friend?

2. Who would you miss most after graduation?

3. Who would you miss most when doing exercise?

4. Who did we always forget to feed?

5. What is the name of our graduate buffet's stall?

6. Whose singing is the best?

7. Who is the Kindergarten aircon manufacturer?

"Guess The Person"

1. Who does "F4 and Shan Cai" refer to?

2. Who is the "Battle God"?

3. Who is the "Chief Clark"?

4. Who is the Kindergarten "Wu Zun"?

5. Who says this: "你怕没有的玩 meh"?

6. Who are the 3 "露鸟大侠" (Bird Revealing Heroes) of the Kindergarten?

7. What does "Ah Guan" & "Ah Seng" refer to?
