Deaf People can do Anything apart from Hear!

noreply@blogger.com (Selina) — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 21:54:38 PST

I found this youtube from my friend's facebook. Wow.. Many deaf people from another countries, like China, USA, UK, and others... We deafs can do anything! ^^ We can become engineer, doctor, teacher, and etc etc! If you deaf, please don't think this disability as hindrance in your life.. Don't give up! :)

I really like this! They really do good performance for this! :) You can believe it!
The building communication bridges between the deaf and hearing community are extremely important too because the hearing people can see that we can do the same things they can do! Read "Building and Crossing Bridges" article from DeafNation blog.

Cute Totoro Pumpkin!

Happy Halloween: Totoro Pumpkin!

While I am surfing net, I found totoro pumpkin picture from the collection of pumpkin photos! It is really cute.. It is real pumpkin made by a person?? or not? O_o I really love Totoro since I am young.. :P I always watching this anime on many times...

Totoro is very suitable for the kids! My Neighbor Totoro is very famous anime movie that directed by Hayao Miyazaki in Japan. This is s my favourite of anime... Those of you who have seen the film or know about Totoro you will know that he is a huge owl/cat like creature who is seen by young children who will themselves to see him. Sisters Mei and Satsuki move to the into a new house with their father in the countryside. The youngest sister, Mei, an adorable and somewhat spoilt young girl first sees Totoro, and instantly loves him. And as the film goes on, we see the two sisters go on their own adventure with the help of Totoro and a few friends.

My sisters really like it so they bought DVD anime: My Neighbor Totoro..When we free, we can watch this anime. ;)

You very loved Totoro? :P I have alot of wallpaper 'Totoro' so it is very cute! ^^

Surrogates Movie Review

noreply@blogger.com (Selina) — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 20:32:20 PST

Summary

Surrogates, based on the graphic novel, foretells what it would be like if we all created robot versions of ourselves to do out daily activities while we stay home and control them via virtual reality. We could stay young, vireal, buff and beautiful. We wouldn’t have to worry about hygiene, getting fat and aging. It is quite a dynamic and creepy fantasy world depicted in this film.

Once the world is established we meet FBI Agent Greer who takes a case that involves users of the Surrogates dying when their robot counterparts die. Is it the Prophet who is doing the killing as he unleashes his agenda to save mankind from its reliance on the robots? All these are suspects and more as the film twists and turns through this futuristic world at break-neck pace.

---------------------------------------------------------

Maybe you don't know what is about Surrogates.. Everyone own a surrogate robot body in their lives in countries. Their feeling can accept the everything good through the surrogate experiences, e.g. he uses his robot body to run so faster, and not need to gain the painful experience when a person beat up his robot..mean his robot can do everything as he likes...But, there are very murder mystery set in a future world with filled the robots! How to kill a human through his/her robot? They use a dangerous weapon to kill who is involved with world-company which sell the surrogate robots..

I am shocked when I see which is one real human in a group of robots in the place??! I think that it is hard to find out one of them.. :P because the robots looks as very real real! This is really a 'Second Life' games when you play the character in the world through the multiplayer games!! I played the multiplayer games before but, this movie make me wow! :P I think that the actors/actress did a great job at acting like a robot in this movie.. :D

For my opinion, those who don't accept reality-life and use two-faces to use a robot. e.g. a guy use a female robot to play with them, or lie to everyone about his/her life...And if everyone uses surrogates all the time for just about everything, like working and enjoyable of life, they will be unhealthy because they always be in home only. They also never express their real emotions like love, fear, sadness and guilt starts! It will affected the children. What you think about this story? :) It make everyone learn to accept your own mistake in reality life after a FBI Agent Greer stopped it from culprit who wanted to destory everyone own the robots...

Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle is over..

noreply@blogger.com (Selina) — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 19:29:58 PST

Do you know about Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle? It is very popular anime in Japan. Many characters also involved in the Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle Anime that the CHAMP taken from Card Captor Sakura, Legal Drug, Angelic Layer, X, Chobits, Magic Knight Rayearth and Tokyo Babylon.

Tsubasa Rese rvoir Chronicle Anime and Manga, finally be end on last month, September. I really surprised when the CHAMP decided to finish the anime,Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle so, it's great story when you start to watch anime or read this manga..But, the episodes are continue so long time.. When it's come to end, I am really don’t understand about what are Yuuko's meaning (from xXx Holic)and the memories always confuse us! @_@ All are because cloning stuffs! Syaoran and Sakura are cloned..that is why their memories are created and sometimes mix with other memories...

It is really sad and painful about Syaoran and Sakura clone because they were given a third chance at life due to some awesome loop hole and all the sacrifices made throughout the series. When a creator, Fei Wong Reed who is died, they must be dead but somewhere in another universe the clones are reborn with no past memories and we see them passing each other on the street, giving them a hope to live..I think like see them before in other manga that is related with Card Captor Sakura.

Before this come to end, I also surprised that Clone Sakura said Watanuki is same as real Syaoran! I am sure that Yuuko also knew it from the beginning when she met Watanuki in other manga (xXx Holic). The CHAMP is really smart! They make the connection between tsubasa reservoir chronicle and xXx Holic are very interesting and make us curious more about who are Watanuki and Syaoran? From beginning, I thought Watanuki and Syaoran are brothers, but they are not because their personality are different! In the truth, Watanuki is a part of real Syaoran.

When I read this manga, real Syaoran wanted to give up before Watanuki’s explanation. He was thinking about giving up his life because the clone Syaoran or real Syaoran would be too much of a price to pay.. I am really touched about Watanuki tells real Syaoran that he is happy that he was born. Even though he said “Thank you for giving birth to me” - what Watanuki really is saying “I forgive you for forcing your decisions on to other people and creating me to live a miserable life”. This is all because Fei Wong Reed wanted to bring Yuko back to life and forced Syaoran pay a price for this, that is why Watanuki is existed in other world (xXx Holic). The point is Watanuki is okay with his existence and also happy about what he live in his world and meet friends, and spirits which are very important to him.

Finally, real Syaoran and Sakura get their clones' memories inside their body. They are very sad and understand that their clones are very suffered through their jounery like 'Circle of Time', mean it never to be end for them..So, they have to do something for real syaoran and sakura with their survive of life. This is giving them to start a new life, mean real Syaoran decide to make new jounery to find what's an important of meaning in his life. Fai and Kurogane also join him..Real Sakura cannot join in, but it's really give a surprise to me!! They finally said their true name are 'Tsubasa'! Syaoran and Sakura share the SAME name. What have we learned from this entire series? That in every universe there is someone just like you that shares the same heart, soul, and name. Gender might not matter and their appearance might not be the same. So…..are Syaoran and Sakura the same person? Why they don't tell their real names in the beginning of story? O_O Maybe they hide something from..?? Why did Sakura have to hide her name all this time? Why does her family call her Sakura? This is more question which are given by the readers.. :P

I think that Sakura said "we will meet each other again". This means that CHAMP want to do new manga again? What I think about this story gives you many meaningful about what is an important life in the universal - they will meet same person in another world and share their experience in other world. For example, Sakura, Fai, Syaoran and Kuragone meet same person that they knew in another world, but same person don't know who are them, no matter same person's soul are exisited in anywhere - universal.

This story is great! Sakura and Syaoran are the teenager, sometimes different than they are kids in the Card Captor Sakura. I am to be honest.. I prefer that the Card Captor Sakura because it is very cute and fantasy. :P I will read new manga again if CHAMP do new one!

G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra Movie Review

noreply@blogger.com (Selina) — Sun, 18 Oct 2009 09:10:30 PDT

My dad and I went to the bookshop..My sister asked dad to buy new DVD, Final Destination because she loves to watch the Final Destination 1,2, and 3..-_-lll Finally, my dad bought two DVDs; Final Destination and G.I.Joe! I really don't know what is G.I.Joe. I heard that some people love to buy the dolls action figures in their 20’s and 30’s. This story of G.I.Joe involves an elite government squad and their struggles with an evil criminal organization hell bent on taking over earth.

Wow! The G.I. Joes — an international strike force that uses the most advanced technology known to man in order to thwart international terrorist plots. They used their accelerator suits to follow the criminals before they attack on the Paris. It make me really confused..But, it is very surprised because everyone curious about what they will do when they used new technology to battle..! They are fighting with evil enemies in the battle underground water!! O_O The movie slowly explains itself through flashbacks and all. Really smart. Good to keep the audience wondering and still keep them happy by answering them through the flashbacks about the relationships between Ana and Duke/ Storm Shadow and Snake Eyes)

Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow are cool! They were taught by the same master and Storm Shadow kinda er, betrayed the master out of jealousy and hatred towards Snake Eyes. Their fighting are very good because they used their martial arts as Ninja! O_o.. because they are wearing ninja like Black VS White.. :D

I'm pretty excited about seeing the technology battle which used by G.I.Joe. If you don't know about G.I.Joe, check the Wikipekia: G.I.Joe. The next movie: G.I. Joe: The Pursuit of Cobra was coming soon in 2010. I give 4 of 5 rating stars. ;)

Gasonline @ Look Out Point

noreply@blogger.com (Selina) — Sat, 10 Oct 2009 09:39:38 PDT

Last year, I went to the Look Out Point with my family. Many people still come to this place to see the KL's City view! O_o Now, this place already changed and more restaurants opened there.. But, the parking cars still be no enough, it is not easy to park inside!

My sisters and I took my dad went to the Look Out Point in Ampang. We had dinner at Gasoline, one of the three restaurants on Look Out Point. Before we started to order, I took more photos of evening view of the KL city because we reached so early at 6pm. It's best time to catch this photo before the sun sets :D See the photos about KL's City View here.. It's a perfect time to go to The Look Out Point in the night. Comfortable? :D

If you want to come around 7pm, the parking car will be FULL like last year we came... That is why Look Out Point, Ampang is one of the most unique and coolest place you can ever be in KL. Many people also know its very famous!

Why we chose the Gasoline Cafe? Because Gasoline Cafe is especially popular with the youngsters for its variety of fusion food, and probably due to its private tatami type of dining rooms. Wow! they serve a fusion of food from asian cuisines like fried noodles right to western meals and also unlimited choices of interesting starters to make you want to eat all! :P The best part of all was prices are really reasonable. Gasoline Cafe provide the different kind of ice blended drinks that you must try! See what we ordered below;

Cheezy Fried Rice

Red Chicken Chop

Black Pepper Chicken Chop

Jasmine Tea & Ice Lemon Tea

Before we go back home, I took this picture landscape with a logo Gasoline. It is beautiful view!

You want go to the Look Out Point in Ampang? :D I got from Gasoline’s website.. it’s a very useful map on how to get there. Or you can check it out on Google Map here

If you are still unsure, just follow Jalan Ampang all the way until you see any road signs turning into the new Carrefour at Jalan Taman Putra. From there, just look for a steep road leading up a hill with the road sign saying “Kajang”.

The Ugly Truth Movie Review

noreply@blogger.com (Selina) — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 09:56:47 PDT

Summary

Abby Richter, television producer, and Mike Chadway, shock television host, for a local television channel. The ratings have been approaching zero and getting worse when the channel’s manager picks Chadway from the public access channel to spice things up. His show, appropriately named The Ugly Truth, is about the battle between the sexes. Chadway begins his loudmouthed but oddly successful quest. Then, he make a deal with Abby because she really hates him! :P In their deal, he will coach her what men like, so she can find a girlfriend, but he ends up falling for her along the way! :D

---------------------------------------------------

Last sunday, I met my long-friends in One Utama Shopping Mall. We are enjoying to chat and shopping there! My deaf friend, Kelly suggest to watch the 'Final Destination' movie! So, we rush to go check if the movie be avaliable or not? But, no more movie 'Final Destination' already. :( We decided to pick up a movie - "The Ugly Truth" so, I think that mostly girls like this romantic movie? Haha.. Long time, I don't see the romantic movies because I always love the action movies only :P

This movie is romantic comedy! But, its best for the couples or singles; guys and girls...I think that they will learn each other when Chadway also help her about how to date a guy and explore what a guy likes.. For me, I really don't believe that a guy likes 'sex' than 'love'?? O_o Funny, Chadway and Abby always fight each other like dog and cat! Haha.. I knew that they sure fall love each other in the end of movie! :P

I think that this movie is fine. Lots of jokes and crazy things are happened in this movie :) If you want to watch this romantic movie, you bring your girlfriend/boyfriend la. Haha..

I am designing this banner for KDU College! ^^ It is nice? :D Happy Mid-Autumn Festival! I wish to playing the lantern..T_T I remembered that I always play the lantern with my eldest sister and neighbor since I am kid. I really never forget my sweet memories in my life! :) Do you know about why we celebrate it on every year? Check the info; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mid-Autumn_Festival

I also very busy in this week! Why many friends invited me go out.. -_- I think want to rest in my home, and miss to play The Persona 4, PS2. The Persona 4 is good! I will review this after I complete this game PS2. :D

Kim invited me go to do FREE fitness gym in Jaya33. I feel okay with this. I think it is cool but I really don't want a trainer who teach me because they are very strict! @_@ Haha! First time, I join the True Fitness.. Maybe I will plan to join other fitness, not 'True Fitness' in Jaya33. :)I will write my experience about True Fitness later. :P

I must watch new movie: CLOUDY WITH A CHANCE OF MEATBALLS! :P I will see how 1st if I have free time! ^^

Where got Ghost?! Movie Review

noreply@blogger.com (Selina) — Tue, 29 Sep 2009 08:26:52 PDT

Finally, the Jack Neo's latest "Where Got Ghost?" movie is coming! I don't know that why this movies always get FULL when I try to make the researvation seats through GSC and TGV website. T-T Lot of chinese people love it? :P Maybe I decided to bring my dad and sister go to watch "Where got Ghost?!" movie (mandarin) in the Tropicana City Shopping Mall during Hari Raya holiday. First time, my dad see 'new' Tropicana City which is near my workplace, KDU College. No one is queuing so we are lucky to get the tickets. Normally, many people always are watching the movies during holiday only. :D

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

In my opinion, this movie was very funny but rather poor in the ending... We feel that old movies; "Money No Enough 2", "Love Matters", and "Ah Long Pte Ltd" are better than this movie.. I am disappointed because there are 3 ghost stories - have different characters and they acted so very funny. But, I feel it like reading the story books... -_-

I like last story about a family with ghost mummy. Haha.. The brothers are very stupid and always scared of ghosts! :P There are three different meanings and moral values which can let us learn what is an important in our lives. I don't feel scare when I watched this movie. So, it is horror comedy because Jack Neo focuses more important fact to make more comedy and moral values for his movies. :)

Watch this if you love Jack Neo movies. ;)

G- FORCE Movie Review

noreply@blogger.com (Selina) — Mon, 21 Sep 2009 21:59:17 PDT

About a group of intelligent animal commandos working for a government agency trying to prevent an evil billionaire from taking over the world.the G-FORCE are guinea pigs Darwin, the squad leader determined to succeed at all costs; Blaster, an outrageous weapons expert with tons of attitude and a love for all things extreme; and Juarez, a sexy martial arts pro; plus the literal fly-on-the-wall reconnaissance expert Mooch, and a star-nosed mole Speckles, the computer and information specialist..

----------------------------------------------------

After "UP" movie, I went to the Sunway Pyramid to watch the movie "Where got Ghost?!" (mandarin) on last friday after my work. Suddnelly, it fully booked so FULL already! O_o Why it always like this? I tot it is not popular but many people want to watch this! It make me no choice...So, I chose G-FORCE movie because we are lucky to get the empty seated because no one come to take reservation seat! :D

G-FORCE is 3-D family action-comedies centered on elite, high-tech, computer-animated animal agents. They are 'cute' team of guinea pigs armed with most sophisticated and high-end tech gadgets as the weapons such as the plasma gun and others, especially I like them about the guinea pigs ride in 'cute' balls! ^ ^ I like it! They also are brave and decide to take a mission about their enemy's objective are destroingy the world with his home appliances. So their question is how he would do it. Later, I am surprised that the film showed that his remote-controlled home appliances will all fly together and amalgamate into a mighty metallic robot with semblance to a 'Transformer'!! Haha..

But, I wonder how guinea pigs, and mole can communicate the language with the human? O_o I know that they trained so very well but, hamster, mouses and quinea pig also can communicate too at outside.. Weird :P Wow, they also use a fly as 'spy'!! It is an interesting! My eldest sis sure will hate the bugs if she watch this movie! Haha. They are very small size but it is very challenge for them when they face the FBI agents and robots! :P

It teach you kids about learn to trust someone you loved in your family, treat the animals so nicely, NOT bully them! :) and don't choose 'evil' path to take revenge.. :) G-Force is a perfectly timed movie for the holiday 'hari raya' that the kids enjoy to watch with family~ :)

The movie review: "Where got Ghost?!" (mandarin) that will coming soon! Look for this! :D

Deaflympic Part 4: Hero Malaysians back to Malaysia and show the 2 medals: Silver and Bronze!

noreply@blogger.com (Selina) — Sat, 26 Sep 2009 02:44:05 PDT

Congratulation to the Hero Malaysians! ^ ^ We are Deaf Malaysians always happy and proud for them! They are very hardworking! No matter age, they still can do their best!

They already reach at the KLIA! Wow, many deaf fans, family and friends still waiting for them at the KLIA! :D Please visit the Amir Hamid blog for more information and see his pictures!
See the video here!

Jaguh boling Pekak negara, Mohd Zaidi Awang mengutip pingat gangsa dalam acara perseorangan lelaki. Dalam acara master lelaki, beliau hanya menduduki tempat yang keempat, iaitu peningkatan sebanyak satu tangga daripada pencapaian beliau di Sukan Deaflympics Melbourne 2005.

Pemain badminton beregu negara, Teh Cheang Hock dan Yeo Kok Fang terpaksa berpuas hati mencapai pingat perak selepas tewas mengejut kepada beregu muda dari Rusia yang bukan pilihan utama, Karpov Artemy Mikhailovich dan Efremov Mikhail Alexandrovich dengan keputusan 16-21 dan 21-23.

Pingat perak diraih oleh pemain beregu badminton, Teh Cheang Hock (kiri) dan Yeo Kok Fang (keempat) bersama jurulatih Mohamed Iqbal Yusoff.
Harapan untuk menambah satu lagi pingat gangsa musnah apabila Teh Cheang Hock ditewaskan oleh pemain remaja China, Lu Guangyao, 19 tahun (21-15,13-21,19-21) dalam acara perseorangan lelaki untuk merebut tempat ketiga.

Sekiranya beliau tidak bertembung dengan Rajeev Bagga, jaguh badminton Pekak dunia dari Great Britian dalam perlawanan peringkat separuh akhir (keputusan 21-15, 21-19), sudah pasti beliau akan meraih pingat emas atau perak.

Mohd Zaidi Awang, Teh Cheang Hock dan Yeo Kok Fang tetap dikenang sebagai wira Pekak negara yang terhebat dalam sejarah sukan Pekak tanah air kerana mereka telah berjaya menunjukkan daya bertarung yang tinggi sehingga membawa pulang dua butir pingat Deaflympics, pingat tertinggi yang menjadi rebutan atlet Pekak dari seluruh dunia.

Penulis difahamkan bahawa mereka telah menjalani latihan yang singkat selama sebulan sebelum temasya sukan Deaflympics bermula. Mujurlah tumpuan mereka tidak terganggu oleh kesulitan pihak MSFD dalam mencari bantuan kewangan untuk menanggung kos kem latihan dan penghantaran kontinjen negara ke Taiwan.

Walau bagaimanapun mereka merupakan jaguh negara yang telah berumur. Sememangnya faktor usia bukanlah penghalang untuk mencapai kejayaan dalam lapangan sukan seperti yang telah dibuktikan oleh Mohd Zaidi Awang dan Teh Cheang Hock.

Mohd Zaidi Awang pemenang pingat gangsa dalam acara boling tenpin perseorangan lelaki.
Apa yang jelas ialah sikap dan harapan pihak MSFD yang terlalu bergantung pada kekuatan jaguh bermuka lama. Tidak dapat dibayangkan apa yang akan terjadi kepada Malaysia sekiranya mereka memilih persaraan pada masa yang akan datang dan muka baru yang berbakat demikian tidak ditemui.

Pada hemat penulis, pihak MSFD perlu melakukan sesuatu usaha secara proaktif dengan segera untuk mencari bakat yang baru dan setanding dengan wira-wira Pekak tersebut sebagai persiapan awal dalam jangka masa panjang untuk menghadapi Sukan Deaflympics ke-22 di Athens, Greek pada tahun 2013.

One day, before heading to retire to an old-age home, he ties thousands of balloons to his beloved house and flies away to Paradise Falls.

But unbeknownst to Carl, there’s an unwanted passenger in his flying home – the overly optimistic 8-year-old Wilderness Explorer named Russell (Jordan Nagai). The unwitting stowaway is just one badge shy of achieving his Senior Wilderness Explorer rank. The pin that will help Russell reach his goal is the Assisting-the-Elderly badge.

Together, Carl and Russell embark on the trip of their lives. They journey into a lost world where they encounter strange characters. But above all, Carl and Russell find their inner selves and discover the true nature of friendship.

After work, I drove alone to the Tropicana City Mall during heavily rain.. -_- Luckily, I got the tickets before the reservation time is finish. I am waiting for my mom and sister in 25 mins..lol. First time, we go in the GSC cinema because The Tropicana City Mall still is new! :D

“Up” is very a comedy movie because it give the feeling of heart and sorrow, but it also make you also happy and laugh so together! I also touched with the loving relationship between Carl and his wife Ellie! It always bring laughter come from Kevin, a 13-foot tall flightless bird and a clever dog, Dug. Wow, a boy is brave and wants to help everyone! He is very cute! After his wife, Ellie passed away, his heart already lost and not believe anyone..Like,he's missing something in his life, and he's lonely. When Carl is flying with his own house, many happened to him in the jounery to Ellie's dream place until the special bond that forms between Carl, Russell, Kevin, and Dug is also heartwarming. In “Up,” you will identify about how the old man who is brilliant enough to make his home fly high up into the sky! ^ ^

I really like the colorful balloon! :D I wish to sit in a house with the balloon! Hehe..A kid also can fly with the balloon! O_O It bring the meaning for the kids and adults..You also can do what come from your heart!! And that friendship is one of the most beautiful things in the world. That is their journey that they take together not only makes them stronger within, it gives them hope, and it gives them each other. :)

If you are looking for a hillarious movie with some sensical meaning. Up is highly recommended. It was truly awesome. Bravo!

My upcoming movie review "G-Force" will come in my blog soon! :D

Peace Corps Kenyan Sign Language Website

noreply@blogger.com (Selina) — Thu, 17 Sep 2009 08:00:12 PDT

I am working for my project KDU Campus. :( I also find idea to design it while I am surfing the internet until I found the exciting website from Kenya! Wow, it is cute pictures and good idea to make the flash website! In 2006, Adobe choose this website as one of Adobe’s Best of 2006 Site of the Day.

It can help the kids to learn the sign language, and they put the simple pictures, such as vegetables, animals, and what their country, Kenya have.. because it is very easy to make them to see and remember what it is when they show the sign language but, they show the short signs only. :) Maybe it looks like they also use "Home Sign" since no sign language(KSL) existed in the history of the country, Kenya?

This website also have an interactive games that can give some question to the visitors after they learns the Kenyan sign language (KSL). I always like this game so I think that the Malaysian Federation of the Deaf (MFD) can do it like this? :D

The Kenyan Sign Language Minisite was developed to showcase one of the innovative projects Peace Corps volunteers are developing around the world. In Kenya, volunteers working with hearing impaired youth needed a way to help their communities learn sign language. To maximize their efforts—and to make the process more enjoyable—volunteers developed CD-ROMs with games and activities that helped deaf children and their families learn Kenyan Sign Language (KSL). In addition to featuring the original sign language games developed by the volunteers, the KSL website provides an overview of the project and introduces users to the volunteers.

noreply@blogger.com (Selina) — Sat, 22 Aug 2009 23:06:01 PDT

Synopsis: The Emperor has 12 Secret Royal Guards viz Royal Tiger (Tong Dawei), Royal Pig (Lam Tze Chung). All of them are kungfu masters with the exception of Royal Dog (Louis Koo). No matter how much his fiancée Faithful (Barbie Hsu) or his future parents-in-law try to dissuade him, Royal Dog does not waiver from his goal of pursuing a career in scientific exploration.

The Head of Eunuchs, Unicorn (Louis Fan), who is a martial arts expert, as well as, a schemer and power-grabber. To overthrow the Emperor, he murders a Minister and schemes to have one of his godsons to marry Princess Rainbow so that he would become an indirect "in-law" of the Emperor and Empress (Sandra Ng).

Royal Dog, Faithful and Gemini see through his scheme and try to wreck his plan. In a fury, Unicorn attempts to seize power by assassinating the Emperor and the stage is set for a deadly duel between the force of good and evil.

My sister and I bring our grandma go to watch this Cantonese movie. For me, it is comedy movie that make the people laugh! I felt this movie show some scenes looks as funny and stupid. The secret service has been responsible for protecting the Emperor for generations and 12 agents are always assigned to bodyguard duty. The Royal guards get the nickname, such as Royal Dog, Royal Pig, Royal Tiger and others.. Royal Dog shows no interest in the martial arts and spends his time studying technology and creatng inventions~ He also make the traps for the enemies!

His fiancée is very good at fighting while flirting with him! I thought that she is very great than her parent and enemies. But, she looks not strong when she fight with the enemies who is very strong..lol He also prepared many things to fight..It is very funny! ^ ^ There are some ninjas who want to kill a king! O_O First time, it use ninja to fight with them.. I think that a minister who hired the Japanese ninjas to kill the stupid Emperor... :P

Country Story Facebook

Summary

Playfish’s Country Story sees players digging up pots of land, planting seeds and watering them as well as gaining money through harvesting your virtual crops. Gamers take control of teenage farmhands that can be changed and customised to the user’s preference.

Playfish created new game, Country Story again after we busy play the popular games, Pet Society and Restaurant City. The Country Story turned out to be surprisingly refreshing for the people can enjoy to farming and take care of the animals.

When you start this game, you start your life in an idyllic village among friendly villagers, surrounded by lakes and forests and the sweetest fresh air. You can choose the gender; girl or boy before you play this game... It make surprised me when I saw my friends choose girl so moslty! because she is very cute than a boy? :P

Then, you can choose which is one of your favorite view of places. Then you will get a house and empty farm, so you can decorate what you like to buy the flowers, fences and others from the shops.

The Mayor is the first of the villagers you’ll meet and he’s happy to help you about how to tend your crops and prepare for your first harvest. And with your friends’ homes nearby you’re never far from someone who can lend a hand. Or perhaps you’re more interested in keeping animals – maybe you can tend cows for their milk, sheep for their wool, or chickens for their delicious eggs!

It remind me about I was playing the Harvest Moon games before! A mayor also advise you and give the quests.. :D Many avatar were very cute when I went to the village for buying something! See the below pictures;

Country Story only allows you to interact with your friends playing the game, mean you can water their plants, clean up their place, and even care for their animals when you visit your friends' farm. You can visit a marketplace to buy the seeds, animals, bank and etc..

But, it is boring when farming and take care of animals on every day? That is why they created some quests that you can get rewards. When you do a quest, you will do something through learning session like it is watering the crops dry and collect the building materials. Until your quest is complete, you will earn some money, rewards, and experience towards leveling up.

I also surprised when I use steal icon to steal some from my friends' farm but you have to be careful with a dog because your friend's dog can bit you to make you lost -50 coin!

How about this game? :D It make me miss the Harvest Moon but, I prefer Harvest Moon than this game :P Try to play the application game on Facebook, Country Story!
