So I’ve been playing this new game called Restaurant City – it’s a social online flash game published by Playfish.
I’ve been so glued to his game, that I check up on my “virtual” restaurant every three hours or so.
Today, I found a way to hack it and here’s a video post about it:
For those who are playing the game, have fun trying to guess how I did it ^_^.
Hi guys,
I’m totally inundated with work.
Do you guys know Lord Tenneson’s poem “The Charge of the light Brigade”?
Here’s an excerpt from the third stanza (go here to read the full thing):
Cannon to right of them,
Cannon to left of them,
Cannon in front of them
Volley’d and thunder’d;
Storm’d at with shot and shell,
Boldly they rode and well,
Into the jaws of Death,
Into the mouth of Hell
Replace Cannon with work and you know how I feel – but then again who isn’t busy these days?
I have a mid-term exam and a lot of work from left, right and front, so I will try my best to keep posting – expect me to be back to my full routine around April 17th.
Until then, stay gold.
Cheers,
-Eric
Epik High introduced a new album last week: Map the Soul.
When you buy it, it also comes with a book that Tablo (lead rapper) personally wrote. I can’t wait to get my copy.
In fact, I was so elated that I took nearly two hours to write this short message to the members of Epik High a few days back:
Although 99% of our population can read and write, a better question to ask would be “how many of those people can read and write well enough to cope in society?”
A recent report published by the Canadian Council on Learning attests to the fact that 1 in 5 university graduates have difficulty reading and writing. They were ranked below level 3 which means that they have difficulty in understanding even the simplest of text.
And the rate of illiteracy is expected to rise.
Here’s a double dose of S&V for you guys today!!
I made this video for a world issues project
Hi peeps!!
I was randomly listening to a bunch of national anthems from around the world on youtube and I found this one, which I think is most patriotic that I’ve heard so far – too bad the United Soviet Socialist Republic (CCCP) is not around anymore.
Check it out:
Lately I’ve been sleeping at around 4-5 am… everyday.
It’s because of this stock competition.
Two weeks ago a bunch of banks announced positive earnings for 2009 first fiscal quarter. Obviously, this made many believe that the economy was flying back towards the greens – making the recession a distant dream.
Unfortunately for me, I lost 115% of my portfolio value.
Today I read this front-page story.
It seems as if Bush is hated among Americans and cosmopolitans alike; 400 protesters piled up in Calgary to show their negative emotions for Bush. Playing on the “shoe incident” which happened some time ago, Bush critics wielded signs reading “Shoe Him The Door”.
Honestly, I don’t understand why people everywhere are hating Bush so much.
Today, I was caught in traffic, because of this.
The Tamil community in Toronto set up a demonstration, similar to the one in January, and created a “human chain” blocking traffic for hours on end.
In terms of the fight against civilian oppression, the Tamils have all the right to stand up for their own people, who are trapped in war zones throughout Sri Lanka. I have to admit that their plight, and the plight of many other groups have been and will be ignored by our own government, but this does not mean that the Tamil community is not setting a good example for the rest of Canada. In fact, they are showing us an example of how to deal with political oppression.
Hi peeps!
I read this news article today, and I am shocked by the inactivity of our Prime Minister, Steven Harper.
Seeing that the People’s Republic of China is quickly becoming the world’s second largest economy (followed by the U.S.A.), there is no doubt that China’s economy has been developing – at a very rapid pace.
It now makes perfect sense that in the geopolitical realm, politicians should be vying for strong political/economic relations with China.
At the next Group of 20 summit next month, Obama has plans to coordinate America and China’s efforts in fighting the current global economic crisis. It is plainly obvious that Obama is pursuing friendly relations with China. Unfortunately, the same pursuit does not seem to exist at the federal level, here in Canada.
