wuzzup!!!

nothing much. what is there in a life of a fulltime housewife with no kids... in the midwest.

weekend went well. the weather was nice so we did stuff outside. went to lowe's and pi gatal beli a pond kit (a good deal at 50% off)... so a pond looks promising in the near future : )...

also bought cement and used it in an attempt to rebuilt the rose planter. that rose planter was the first thing we re-did when we moved in. because we didn't really know what we were doing, it ended up looking bad.

cement is kindda cool but we didn't buy enough so the weekend project isn't a weekend project after all. maybe today we'll finish it up. i hope it doesn't rain. and i hope chot's leg gets better.

chot pulled his thigh muscle playing soccer yesterday. it's only the second game in the league (first game gave him a bloody nose). i had to drive him to work coz by the time he was ready, it was already 9 ish. by this (late of a) time, the only empty parking lots are far away. so i drove and dropped him right in front of the main door.

we're currently watching this anime. it's reeeaallly slow (and stupid) in the beginning. the first 3 dvds are set in feudal japan and the last 2 in the presant day. and it's kindda scary the way their eyes don't blink. have 1 more dvd to go.

and also watching samurai 7... this is better. there's an old japanese movie from the 1950's called "7 samurai". it has the same premis but set in the future.

i like animation but chot is the anime lover. he'll remember the name of the characters whereas i will not. he'll talk about the characters as if they're real people (dorky...) whereas i will definately not. he'll watch an anime series again (and again) whereas i won't... i'd say "kan dah tengok, kenapa nak tengok lagi??"... he'll go "sebab suka..."... iyo la.

if he has time, he'll play inuyasha before he goes to work. inuyasha is quite good but a bit soap opera-ish coz it's never ending.

lin,

terciciran : )...

OIC... chot's no fanatics, not like he has a dedicated website for anime.

oh oh oh... watch TOKYO GODFATHERS, it's real in so many ways, kalau tukar the animation bit with real people and scenes, dah jadik regular movie...

i really haven't watch a lot of anime but if i can suggest u one anime movie ever, i'd suggest TOKYO GODFATHERS...
