toys nowadays are really changing so quickly to catch up with the times. meet VideoGirl, this very cool Barbie doll released earlier in July this year - she's a doll and a video camera at the same time! makes me wonder what's the age of the youngest film-maker on youtube now :)anyway, as with all things, with the good stuff.. comes some bad stuff too.

- are a huge fan of coca cola and all things coke
- enjoy Long John Silvers
i haven't stepped into a Long John Silvers restaurant for the longest time. in fact i think i can count with one hand, the total number of times i've ever had food there. by fast food standards, it's actually not a bad place but somehow it just never comes up to the top of my list even when I do crave some fast food *shrugs*. i have to admit though, i do kinda like their salty crispy fries, the coleslaw and the extra crunchy flour bits they throw in whenever you order fried stuff :)this evening, i passed by a Long John Silvers restaurant after running some errands, wasn't thinking of getting anything there but the promotional pullup banner at the entrance stopped me in my tracks. it said - purchase any combo meal, upsize your drink, and get one of the featured coca-cola-branded stuffed polar bears for only S$1.80! :) yea, i know... i really don't need another stuffed toy, but the picture of those cute little palm-size wintery white fluffy bears with their festive red scarf, fleece hat and coca cola bottle in hand, just made it so hard to resist, you know? hehe. so i succumbed and walked right into the restaurant... figured i could have a mango fish wrap combo for dinner anyway.
just look at him, isn't he super uber adorable? wouldn't you be tempted if you saw it too? ;) promotion started today (27 nov), one new bear each week.... so hurry down to your nearest branch, and collect all 4!
i have no idea what is the purpose of this Yoshimoto cube.. but it sure has mega wow factor.it may look ordinary at first glance, but wait till you watch the short youtube clip below..
whoa.. impressive :)
geeky too.. lol.and i kinda lost him when he mentioned the engineering technical term for this.. "the transformation of two stellated rhombic.... " :Pbtw, if you have a lot of extra time on hand this weekend (coupled with incredulous patience), you might want to try create a DIY version yourself ;)source: make: online

just plugged in to my itunes on headphones and leisurely preparing some documents for next monday's meetings. decided to have some fragrant strawberry milk i bought at lunch earlier.. yumm yumm. oh, looks like strawberry to-fu is asking for some too.. hehe :P
ok, yes.. dumbest post of the month.. hehe.please ignore me.
i recently purchased these Transformers powerhead walkie talkies - Optimus Prime and Bumble Bee - for my nephews' birthdays. discounted price @ S$19.95 for a set of 2 from takashimaya toy department.the transmission range doesn't go too far, works fine up to approx. 3 - 5 metres... but it's great fun for the two boys anyway :) neat gift idea for kids, well made, sturdy, and even comes pre-installed with batteries so the kids could play out of the box!if you have more little ones at home, there's a set of 4 available too :)
isn't this the cutest salt-&-pepper shaker and condiments set ever? :)such a cheerful pretty display, yet super practical and easy to pass around too. simply brilliant design!measures approximately 7.25” x 6.5” x 4”, perfect for picnics, home-parties and BBQs!get yours at USD20 from fredflare.com today.
do you remember the old-school handheld Casio game - Western Bar? :) i certainly do! that was the "IT" game when i was in primary school!
i never had one of those, so i always had to try to get into the good books of those few classmates who had it, then wait patiently for others to finish their turn before i could lay my hands on it.
so you can imagine how thrilled i was to find an iPhone version of the same game on the app store! granted it's not free.. but for that priceless reminiscence and nostalgia (and the uncontrollable odd grin on my face when i played it), it's definitely worth the US$0.99 price tag! LOL.
i love that oh-so-familiar tune and sounds they put on the iPhone game too...
it's not as easy to manoeuver your way on the touch screen (round rubber buttons are still more fun!).. but for good ol' times, i can live with it :D
if you don't have the iPhone or iPod Touch, try the online remake of it - Drunken Sherriff instead.
