went to uncle charles place to celebrate mooncake festival and nearly got my laptop totalled by an ecstatic 4/5-year old (don't remember her age...)

happy mooncake festival to everyone btw! hope you guys got to eat nice mooncakes! and too bad the weather was crap here in sydney tonight, otherwise we could have played with sparklers and lanterns in the garden. the kids couldn't bear the weather and converted the rumpus room into their little makeshift garden. the parents were all hovering around trying to herd the kids (with sparklers) away from the carpet and the couch.

i managed to find a quiet corner in the house and complete my portion of JAPN3601 presentation for next week.. (kept the kids away from me with my DS) now all i've got to do is JAPN2601 interaction test script and translate Channel A's Tonisen interview of OJN KJN making of PV.

shih pei was rummaging around the lounge area (my quiet corner) and found uncle charles' ancient record collection :D too bad we didn't know how to work the record player... "dream a little dream of me"

minh (deacon minh! xD) actually watches quite a bit of anime. revelation of the day. had an amusing chat with him and ben, reminiscing on the good anime they used to produce.
JT:"Flame of Recca. It's.."
MH:"...crap!"
JT and TT:"no way!"
TT:"i don't care what you say, but Flame of Recca rocked."
at least minh agrees with me on Fushigi Yuugi. and how Fushigi Yuugi 2 sucked. in any case, i'm still originally a Rurouni Kenshin fangirl. on my to-read list: beck and watch too! once it comes out :D hiro mizushima and satou takeru ♥♥

daddy's heading off again to sg on the 11th.
