Wonder Girls - Nobody


Nobody (Chinese Version)

HAHAHA, so halarious~ i can't believe there's a Chinese version of this song...sounds kinda funny b/c of their pronounciations XD but the lyrics are ok


Nobody (English Version)

not bad...and most of their English pronunciations are good, except 1 girl


Nobody (Korean Version)

this is still my fav version of all, the original

黃鴻升 - 愛&英雄

recently heard a few of 小鬼's songs from watching 娛樂百分百 and realize they are actually pretty good~ no wonder his album was on the top for a while, it's really not bad~


黃鴻升 - 不屑

one of the first songs I heard from him


黃鴻升 - 搞砸了

the MV is kinda exaggerating...the storyline kinda xia...


黃鴻升 - 總冠軍

also like this type of upbeat song from him


黃鴻升 - 地球上最浪漫的一首歌

one of my fav song of his, the melody and lyrics are both good
i think his voice is suitable to sing soft rock songs


黃鴻升 - 我不要長生不老


黃鴻升 - 鬼打牆

0220 Yaletown LiveCity & Robson


got up early to go to Yaletown LiveCity with Sharon & Frances today


the weather was clear and sunny


it was all very relaxing and calm...


...until we came to the LiveCity lineup (the line up turns 2 more corners...)
it took us 1 hr of waiting before we could get inside


meanwhile while we were waiting, there's these "English" ladies dressed in big puffy white dresses walked by to say hi


finally got inside...wonder why there's no one watching the show on stage?


b/c everyone is lining up to go inside the CocaCola Pavillion


after another hour of waiting...


we finally can go inside the "Coke can"


lots of Coke bottles and cans


and history...


Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics torch






guy serving us free ice-cold Coke bottles (it taste better cold, and it's at just the right temperature -3 degrees?)




there's actually not much to do inside, but we did take a pic holding the olympic torch
there are other mini games, but there was a line up and we didn't have lunch yet, so we just wanted to eat


and the point of this coke event is to promote recycling?


we actually came here today to get free "LED Coke bottles" that the guy is holding, but we didn't get any, either b/c that they only give them away at night or they are all gone cuz most ppl went last week XD (they only had 20,000 LED bottles, but 80,000 ppl showed up)


after lunch, we went inside the Panasonic Pavilion to watch a short video clip of the Beijing 2008 Olympics opening and Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics opening in 3-D
it was not bad, feels like we were sitting right in the stadium to watch the show, but the only thing that really "popped out" was the confetti floating in the air XD


after watching the 3-D video, we decided that we can't stay in LiveCity any longer...cuz everything needs to line up and the things there wasn't that worth the long wait, so we went to Robson instead

another reason to come to Robson is to buy Winter Olympic mascots plushies at London Drugs that are 50% OFF!! (went from $60/set of 4 to $30, etc.) but only London Drugs is having a big sale, other stores are still selling at regular price...and many ppl dunno about it, and they still waited in a big line-up to buy the more expensive ones, SUCKERS~~ LOL j/k


for the first time, the streets of Vancouver feel like Asia...many people










then we saw "Batman" (though he looked kinda tall, he's also a bit chubby...and I think he was standing on a platform...)


Batman beating up the guy "KAPOW!"


Batman was being horny and kissed the woman, but she looks kinda willing = = (but I know Batman was only there to make money...)


then we saw a bronze cowgirl "statue"


the kid was really happy to play with one of her handguns


even though it's a long wait, we still decided to eat at Kintaro, b/c I haven't had good ramen for a long time XD


waiting patiently outside for seats...


...finally got inside
watching the guy make ramen...I realized that it's really good training for his arm muscles b/c he had to use big, heavy utensils to make ramen NON-STOP as there are always customers piling in~~ how can he ever rest?!



i ordered Shio Ramen (green scallion, bean sprouts, bamboo shoots, boiled egg & BBQ pork in pork bone soup) with lean BBQ pork and light soup

I realized the lean pork was too lean...so dried...next time should get fat pork (I was afraid to get fat b/c last time I ordered fat pork in fatty soup...it was SO FAT!...but now it's too lean)

after eating ramen...we were so full cuz the bowls were huge...had to go for a walk


came across some interesting typography sculptures


LOVE sculpture by Robert Indiana, pretty famous and can be found in many other places around the world


they did a lot of things around the cities to make the place more "olympic feel", but I have to say lot of things were done last minute like 2 weeks before the olympics...


in the end, we went to see the Olympic Flame cauldron at Vancouver Convention Centre
they built fences around it b/c there were some ppl trying to vandalize the cauldron, but I can hardly see it...although I saw some ppl complaining online about the fence distracting the view...the view was pretty clear at night (some ppl just likes to complain about everything = =)


after a long day of standing, waiting in line, and walking, my legs finally started to feel tired...then we went home...but we still had to line up b/c the skytrain station was jam packed with ppl (cuz they made the skytrain carts too short b/c they didn't expect so many ppl would come or that they are too broke to make longer trains...)

張傑 - 下一個章節


張傑 - 愛伊攜帶汝

the beat and mood of this song is quite relaxing, but the tune is kinda weird, esp in the chorus


張傑 - 螢火蟲

the mood of this song is not bad, but kinda sad...in fact both songs are similar...even the mv and the girl?

both mv has a monologue opening...maybe it's a sequal or "part 2"?

張傑 from 南拳媽媽 is debuting his own solo album "下一個章節"

this is kinda new to me, if I didn't watch the MTV countdown, I wouldn't even know he went "solo" to start his own album O_o

woah...i am out of date with 南拳媽媽...but they did disappear for a while


just saw this clip of 張傑 on 娛樂百分百
check out his singing & guitar solo on “愛的主場秀” & “不屑", he made both songs his own, I like his version~~~

0214 Chinese New year x OZONE

Dora was kind enough to invite me to join her family in Downtown for dinner on 除夕 and stay over at her home b/c I was home alone for CNY T-T

Dora's new apartment is nice and simple, love the city night view~ didn't get a chance to take pics of her apartment b/c I didn't know my camera ran out of batteries...was charging that night...maybe next time cuz I like her green and white "IKEA" living room

but the bathtub faucet broke when I was about to shower...so ended up washing my hair in the basin XD took so long and it was so late...so tired...

didn't sleep until 5am b/c Dora kept wanting to show me these funny Korean variety shows which won't load... she gets excited past midnight and started to talk non-stop...so high...then I told her to watch it tomorrow as we have to get up early to go back to Richmond

I got up at 10am to finish my homework while Dora slept some more (since I slacked off the whole time the night before...too much distractions: talking to Dora, TV, Pet Society...@@)

finally came to Richmond for lunch @ Twinkle^2 at 1pm

Photobucket
台式蛋捲滷肉飯

the egg roll was pretty good

Photobucket
韓式烤牛肉飯

the beef is also not bad

Photobucket
蠔仔煎

they used too much starch and sauce...it was all sticky and I only ate like 1 oyster in the entire pancake?!

Photobucket
綠色水果茶+星星 x 百香果紅茶+星星

really filling cuz it's huge...

the food was pretty good but they were so slow after we ordered cuz there was only 1 person working that time and there were many customers...guess they didn't expect so many ppl would come cuz it's CNY LOL

after lunch we went to Richmond Center for shopping...

Photobucket
came across Pet Habitat and saw these cute puppies at the window display

Photobucket
Photobucket
this one is not shy to the camera at all

Photobucket
but this one is super emo...it won't turn around for the camera

then @ 8pm, went to the Richmond OZONE with Sharon to see the fireworks and F.I.R.

Photobucket
Photobucket

they sang 5 songs in total (我要飛, 你的微笑, 月牙灣, Lydia, We Are) and held a brief CD autograph session after the show, but there were too many ppl lining up, they left after 20-30 min before some ppl could get their autographs...we didn't line up cuz it was too crazy

they will have their charity concert @ River Rock Casino the next day, which is completely SOLD OUT~~
