Save the Cheerleader, Save the World

Just got hooked to the Heroes TV series and I love it!!! Was able to copy from my officemate full HD copies of season 1 and first 5 episodes of season 2 because I wasn't able to catch the Heroes hype back then. The pilot episode for season 2 was just shown here last week (NZ is late in showing American TV series).

Isn't it cool to discover that you are "special" in some way and have some supernatural power? I wish I could turn anything to gold like Bob (who turned the silver spoon to gold to convince Mohinder to join their project and that money is not a problem) then I could just relax and hire other people to save the world for me! Hehe! Dar, on the other hand, chooses the power of telepathy like Matt Parkman (yeah, how we all wish men can read our minds!).

Dar and I have only finished up to episode 7 last night - that's 7 hours straight sitting on the couch lol. I'm excited for tonight's Heroes marathon again. As Hiro Nakamura say it, YATTAAAAAAAA!!! Lol.

Rotorua Swoop

Over the weekend, me, Dar and my sister Jaz went to Rotorua (about 6 hour drive from Wellington). One of the activities we did is the Swoop. We were put in like a sleeping bag harness and raised to a height of 40 meters slowly. Then when we were up there, the guy below counted to up 3 and I pulled the ripcord which then released us from the hold and down we went shouting like crazy!! It was scary but lots of fun!! I really wanted to bungy jump ever since and I prefer doing the ones where you jumped on the bridge (lol), but after doing the Swoop, I'm not sure anymore... coz I find this pretty scary already!! It's heart pumping adrenaline rush experience and really fun especially if you do it with people close to you!! Too bad Dar had to be in the middle (so the weight would be distributed evenly) and he's too tall and he blocked me in almost all the shots. :c

Island Bay

Dar and I moved to our new flat in Island Bay last month. The area is really nice - close to the sea, quiet and peaceful. We've had enough city life (where we last live in - right in the middle of town) and the previous apartment was becoming too small for both of us (studio type).

Here, Dar and I would sometimes go out and take a stroll along the shore/bay or just sit down along the beach, chill, and watch the sun set.

Rush Hour 3

I liked Rush Hour 1 and 2. I thought by this time, the Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker tandem would wore off and they wouldn't be as funny anymore, but I was wrong because I found myself laughing all throughout the film. Although the story was predictable, it wouldn't hurt to just sit down and enjoy the film for what it is - 1 and a half hour of entertainment.
