Exams

I've been studying, or rather, thinking about studying. Thus, there have been few posts. That is all.

Museum Station Done

So, I've previously posted about the renovations that were going on at Museum Station. Well, the work is done and the station had it's official unveiling earlier this week.



Any takers as to how long before the station's graffiti-ridden?

Anyhow, I say it's looking good. Hopefully many more stations will get a facelift soon, some really need it. Here are some shots of Queen's Park, and it's actually in ok shape as compared to some others.

Stumbled this today. Psychedelic Star Trek scenes to a Jefferson Airplane song.

The Death Star Conspiracy

I read this rather amusing article on Debunking 9/11, a site devoted to debunking crazy 9/11 conspiracy theories, especially it appears, those involving the government somehow allowing, or even planning the destruction of the twin towers themselves.

Anyhow, this particular post is showing the conspiracy behind the destruction of the Death Star and the cover up instituted by The Empire. Seriously, are we to believe that an untrained moisture farmer from some random planet managed to fire two torpedoes into a 2 meter-wide exhaust port, destroying the most technologically advanced station ever? And how about the fact that he is reportedly Lord Vader's son? Anyhow, a decent read.

Korea Town pt.2

More time was spent in Korea Town yesterday as we were looking to purchase a few games like Yute and Hwatu. We dropped into a store while searching and were compelled , by the sheer cheesiness of it, to get photo stickers of ourselves. Those photo booths are crazy, filled with all the odd cartoon overlays you could want. The results were amusing. Not sure what I'll do with these stickers, but oh the memories.

We then moved on to the Korean supermarket and found what we were searching for. That place has everything. I've previously posted images of one of the potato chip mascots I saw there, and yesterday I found more packaging that I couldn't help but sharing.

Yup! Another potato chip mascot! And some kid and a fox?

Then there are the gyoza flavoured chips. I bought a bag and was surprised that they really tasted like gyoza. I guess I shouldn't have been that surprised but I was. Fairly tasty, though not the best chip flavour I've had. I say worth trying once. But, finally....

I don't think I need to say anything witty about the above photo. It speaks for itself. Just rounding the corner and seeing a big pile of titi cock in front of you was pretty funny. I got a dirty look from a women when I snapped the picture though.

Trekkie Geeks?

So, Savage Chickens has posted a cartoon for you to determine if you're a Trekkie.

It's amusing, but my first response when reading it was that Qapla' is spelt with an apostrophe. I noticed a comment to that effect burried fairly low down, appearently few others noticed, or cared to comment. Amatures!

(For you non-geeks, Qapla' is Klingon for "success", and is a word that is pretty much used for any occasion, saying hello, saying goodbye, saying goodluck, saying congratulations, etc.)
