Movie Marathon

Ok well. I had been a WONDERFUL movie marathon week. Actually, not really a week but just a mere two days, though 'week' makes it sound better, so.... whatever.

Anyway, watched the adorable Alvin and the Chipmunks 2 - The Squeakquel, the 'Hair force one' G-Force, the spoilt Chiwhawha Chloe from Beverly Hill's Chiwhawha, the heartwarming 17 Again, and lastly the action-packed X-Men 3. Currently watching the
Spy next door and the Two silly policemen.

Majority of these shows were just light hearted shows, not really in the mood for movies that cause too much emotion shifting.
Basically its just movies with much depth and causes an emotional rift in you, whether happy or sad, it will hinder you from continuing to watch other films.
Simply put, after seeing an heartwrentching movie that carves a feeling
of satisfication makes you keep thinking about the show. Yeah.

Paradise

~'Osu peeps.
Bored during your holiday?
Finding some movies to watch?
Can read CHINESE?

Well then, then you got something that you will want to lay your hands on.
FREE MOVIES

Yes its free. And there are LOADS of films inside ranging from Taiwan reality shows
to Hollywood dramas. Of course, ALL of the titles are in chinese.(sucks to be me)

I don't really have a problem with that because I am a skilled guesser.
Since I played many ero-*cough* Japanese games and Chinese games, I pretty much can figure out whats what.

Download : http://pplive.en.softonic.com/

I don't like to advertise, but I guess since I have nothing much to post other than
fan-service pics and a mountain of words, I shall do you scrimpy guys a favor.


Anyway, here's the infomation if you're interested :

PPLive is a Shareware Windows software for free online streaming TV programs.

PPLive peer-to-peer streaming video network was created in Huazhong University of Science and Technology, People's Republic of China. It is part of a new generation of P2P applications, that combine P2P and IPTV, called P2PTV. In P2P technology, everyone becomes a broadcaster without the cost of traditional streaming. The more users are online, the faster the programs can be loaded.

The software integrated peer-to-peer technology so it can provide the users with smooth TV programs with no interceptions.

Since PPLive video stream depends on a network connection and number of peers, occasional glitches such as short pauses during viewing or re-buffering are not unusual. In some cases, a stream can stop completely if source video file crashes or not enough peers available to establish a smooth streaming.

PPlive TV signals are mainly from the cable TV. Some channels can not be shown in PPLive. Currently, most of the media contents are TV channels from China.

PPLive is a Shareware, and no registration is needed.

Compatibility of PPLive:
PPLive software is installable on Asian and English language versions of Windows XP. By default, it uses Windows Media Player and RealPlayer depending on a stream type.

How to use PPLive

Download the PPLive software. Make sure that you have already installed the Windows Media Player 9.0 or above.
Open and install the PPLive program and update online.
Run PPLive
Double click the PPLive icon in the system tray at the bottom right corner of the screen. It will brings you a list of TV channels. You can also go to the PPLive website or other partners' websites to view the channel listing.
Hint: Chinese is the default language of all PPLive menus. To switch language to English, right click on the PPlive icon in the system tray and select the third option from the bottom.
All TV channels are listed at one place. The channel lists also contain TV programs that you can watch at this particular moment. Click on the "PLAY" icon behind the channel to watch it.
PPLive typically uses ports 8008 TCP and 4004 UDP to connect to peers.
Then the connection information will be shown in the PPLive icon. Now your computer is downloading stream data from other computers. Wait patiently.
When the buffer data reaches 90% and above, PPLive will automatically start the Media Player and you can enjoy the show.
Note: Closing down your Media player will not end the stream. The PPLive program will remain in the background streaming data until you close it from the tray or change the channel.

Awaited Day

Congratulations to the winners of the "JAE" lucky draw,
and my condolences for the losers.

Hope is not lost though!
You may find a hidden talent somewhere hiding in yourself.
As long you have an opportunity, do not let it go to waste!

But you all are..... 9128381.58123 LIGHTYEARS LATE TO DEFEAT MEH!!!!!!

Omodeto!

Best wishes for Felyn in her future endeavours who just hit 18 this year.

Well, wasn't in my best form today due to certain annoyances & fatigue.
Will not elaborate into them as I've overcame them but still, it reflects on my personality.

Perhaps so, or maybe not. I do not know myself as much as I think I do.

Farewell to Bry0n. Until next year, hope you stay healthy.

Well then, I'll put my skills up for the test in the Battle Arena for some fun.
Aha!

Revival

What's the best way to wake up to the new year?
To have your best friend chat with you daily & appreciate the effort - Check
To have more music & inspirations - Check
___________________________
Ah-ha. My wishlist is pretty short. Not because I don't expect much, but simply pretty much fulfilled. I do not have much desires for new items. No-sir.

Just need a simple chat with the person I am close with is more than enough.
Even its just a simple Hi-Bye, the effort put in to type "H-i" or "B-y-e"
is appreciated. Puts a smile on your face? Deshou?

But still, as positive as I am as myself, it hurts to see how you suffer in work
and unable to do anything. YOU HEAR ME? CHEER UP OR I'll NOT TALK TO YOU. HMPH!

8Feb is coming soon. And i'll say bye to my old world that i'm currently attached to.

Putting those matters aside, i'm pretty satisfied being married to my computer and
fighting those keyboard warriors everyday. Ah.. the joy of listening to the rants
of nerds with the lack of vocabulary when trying their best to scold someone over the net. "Noob" "****er" "beach" "dog" and then resorting to scolding your parents when they run out of words. Hahahahaha! Oh the joy!

I sound like an evil person >:D . But actually... i'm such a darling <33333333333
