Time-wasting

Here's a post dedicated to frens who are currently stoning at home because of the looooong break...below are some suggestions to waste ur time efficiently...

TV!!!
Weekdays, 6.00pm, Kids Central, Gundam Seed. Ok this is dunno the n-th repeat on TV liao, but if u missed it b4, can watch.

Weekdays, 7.00pm, Ch8, there is Bao Lian Deng. Not say the acting and the special effects very good lar, but it is based on famous chinese mythology (although the script is heavily edited i think). So still quite watchable. Eat dinner and watch at the same time.

Weekdays, 10.00pm, ChU. Da Chang Jin!!!! Enuff said.

Mondays, 11.00pm, Ch5. Grey's Anatomy!!!! Watching the show and understanding the medical jargon they are talking give me cheap thrill...haha And sometimes damn funny oso.

Wednesday to Friday, 11pm, Central. Anime - Witchhunter Robin. Interesting story. Nice artwork. But wad I really wan to recommend is the following show...Desert Punk at 1130pm...haha...a hilarous anime with Stephen Chow type jokes...of cus sometimes the jokes can be downright xia liu...so not everyone subscribes to that kind of humour...but for me, it makes me laff like mad...haha

Sundays, 11am, Kids Central, Gundam Seed Destiny. The sequel to Gundam Seed. Not sure if this a repeat, but its a nice anime.

Computer games
Dun have the cutting edge technology to enjoy the latest games...but here are some games I've been playing recently to waste my time..

Civilizations IV. Raise ur empire from scratch. Watch it grow as centuries go by, from a barbarian tribe to a advanced global power. Dominate ur opponents by force, or force them to submit to your superior culture. Forge alliances, trade...etc...May require an up to date video card to run smoothly

Galactic Civilizations II: Dread Lords. A turn-based strategy game like Civilizations, but the similarities end here. In GCII u colonize planets and star systems instead of continents. And the best thing about this game is it lets u design ur own starship. Yes, u can customise ur own ships, giving it wadever engine, weapon, shield, modules and aesthetic look u want. There is something very shiok about commanding ur very own self-designed fleets to conquer other planets.

Chrono Trigger. This game was released in 1995. It runs on the Super Nintendo system (SNES), so you'll nid an emulator to run it on the PC. Dun think its crappy because of its age. In fact this game has a legendary status among the ranks of RPGs. It is also probably the best game that was released for the SNES. Nice plot, nice gameplay, nice soundtrack, and decent graphics. Warning: very addictive.

Phew. Wad a long post...shall come up with more time wasters to post...But that's all for now...
