It was the annual physical examination for teachers and staff. As usual, the medical personnel couldn't find the vein in my arm again. Sigh.

The Imagination of the Japanese

Last Monday I was also able to watch these two live-action movies based on Japanese animation.

I marvel at how these non-Western thinking minds can turn a concept that could be turned by Hollywood into something so dull can amaze me with its unpredictability.

Watched this last Sunday. I can't believe I watched two Danny Boyle and Alex Garland movies in two months. Now if I can find a copy of "The Beach" it'll be three movies...

Might watch this movie this weekend. Missed it the first time it was out, then thought I could watch it last weekend, except that most of the movie houses were showing the Man Spider. Strangely, now they've re-opened it this week.

Since I finally finished Lego Star Wars 1 for the GBA, I have unlocked all the characters for free play, so I could repeat the entire game with different characters.

I also just completed the climactic light saber battle in Episode 2, Yoda vs. Count Dooku, but I used Darth Maul instead. It's like editing the movie in my own mind. Maybe I could even have Count Dooku vs. himself, or at the end of Episode 3, Anakin vs. himself.

Yeah, I watched 3. Just like X-men, they took a lot of liberties with the comic book continuity again, bringing in Gwen Stacy after Mary Jane.

Living On the Lake

Where I was earlier this week, which is why there have been no posts - no thanks to someone for not posting about my absence. Not exactly on the lake, but by the shore. This picture evokes the kind of poverty that can be experienced at the site.
