Justin Bieber Killer

This dude can really sing! I love the way he sings the word "Paparazzi". And tingles goes down my spine at the chorus. 2:19 is another great part. Way to go greyson97!

Translation needs GPS

Here are more weird lines that I simply cannot comprehend.
Whoever did the Chinese - English translation has to be smoking something illegal.

哥享受的不是孤独，是寂寞！
What Brother enjoys is not aloneness; it's loneliness.
(...... ... . ... Wha..?)

花边的睡裙配上随意的木屐，整个人都完全放松了
Laced sleeping gown with wooden clogs makes one completely relax.
(How can one relax when wearing clogs???)

全身上下似乎都散发着夏威夷的味道。
Whole body as if fills with Hawaii's flavor.
(... I'm curious as to how does Hawaii tastes like? Pineapple perhaps?)

简单、随意，没错，这就是青春！

Simple, at will, correct, and this is youth!
(What, the, f-, and... f-this*hit!)


There goes my day at the office...

Lost in Translation

I was proof reading some in-game text for an online game (for kids younger than 14), and I came across this line (in Chinese),

喜欢极限运动吗？跟我来吧！

The CORRECT translation (from translate.google.com) should be:
Like extreme sports? Come with me!

Guess what their copywriter came up with?
Do you like maximal sports? Let's come with me!

...... Oh yeahh... Sounds like FUN!...

Wth...

Random nonsense #3

I was combing through probablybadnews.com and came across this absolutely hilarious newspaper cutting. Not too sure if it really was printed.

I like his last statement though. LOL.

Hotel City : A Facebook Game

And so... I play Hotel City on Facebook. Occasionally.

Well, I mean once a day. A couple of times a day, really.

.......Fine. I'm a Facebook lurker. (I Live on Facebook. Happy?)

So, as I was wondering whether I should get the Swimming Pool extension or the Big Room extension, I was wondering how much coins would I earn from each per minute.

And so... I calculated. (on Windows calculator cause HR has no more calculators in stock)

Pool : 3.5 coins per minute (in the picture, it's the blue colour... hall.. with 4 people drowning in it)
Restaurant : 1.8 coins per minute
Cinema : 1.67 coins per minute
Bar : 1.5 coins per minute
Gym : 1.2 coins per minute

Big room : 1.75 coins per minute
Small room : 1 coin per minute
Budget room : 0.5 coin per minute

And so... After my intensive and exhausting research, I should now invest in more Swimming Pools.

Yay.

Music Album Review:: Zee Avi

I'm rather skeptical when it comes to local music artists. However, over the years I've come to like a few, namely Liang, Juwita Suwito, Karen Kong and lately, Zee Avi aka KokoKaina aka Izyan Alirahman from Miri, Sarawak. Born in 1986, she studied Fashion Design in London - probably where she got her perfect English slang as compared to... non-English speaking people.

She had a lucky break when Brushfire Records (Jack Johnson owns it) spotted her on YouTube in 2007. She then released a self titled debut album on May 19, 2009. The rest is then history.

I like her music because her voice is clear and really melodious. You can sing along to her songs too. She sounds like how a female Jack Johnson would sound. Her Malay-English song, Kantoi doesn't sound Malay at all. (fyi, 'Kantoi' in English means 'So Screwed') You can hear Bitter Heart played over the radio. Check out her YouTube page.

Track Listing:

1. "Bitter Heart" [YouTube]
2. "Poppy" [YouTube]
3. "Honey Bee" [YouTube]
4. "Just You And Me" [YouTube]
5. "Is This The End"
6. "Monte"
7. "Kantoi" [YouTube]
8. "I Am Me Once More"
9. "First of the Gang to Die" (Morrissey Cover)
10. "Darlin' It Ain't Easy"
11. "The Story"
12. "Let Me In"

Do try listening to her. I like all her songs. If I had to name a favourite, it would be "Let Me In" cause it has piano in it. It's my addiction for the week of 12th April 2010.
