Hey, another week, another post. This time no DVDs, books, or films to review. Not much new, really. I worked late two nights last week, and went to Japanese lessons until late on another night, so I didn’t see Zen and Naoko enough… Today did errands all morning (got haircuts, bought groceries, bought a fish for the fishtank, picked up my suit from the dry cleaners), then I took Zen to the birthday party of Isabelle, his classmate, and we had a good time. The girl’s parents had arranged a magician to come as well as a balloon artist, which was a lot of fun. The magician was cheezy, but better than the foreign guy I’ve seen before. The balloon artist was quite good too, Zen got a Bugs Bunny that was really well done, and also a machine gun of sorts. The place they stay at is really nice too, and there were lots of funky pools all over the place. Nice.

I took this picture of a Burger King tray inlay paper just because I thought the message, if there was one, was so retarded:
“Have it your way. You have the right to have what you want, exactly when you want it. Because on the menu of life, you are ‘Today’s Special’. And tomorrow’s. And the day after that. And… well, you get the drift. Yes, that’s right. We may be the King, but you my friend, are the almighty ruler.”
It’s very nice of them to tell me that I have the right to have what I want exactly when I want it, but what if I want a million dollars? And I don’t know if it’s such a great thing to be on a menu if I don’t want to be somebody’s next meal. I know I shouldn’t take crap like this seriously, but it seems irresponsible for a company to publish stuff like this and give it to their clients. Or at least embarassing. I’m embarassed for Burger King – there, I’ve said it.
This is what Zen wore when we went to see Spider-man 3 for the second time. His new backpack is also a Spider-man 3 backpack.
I flew to Hong Kong last month, took this pic from the window somewhere over Vietnam.
Took this picture in Hong Kong. Nice name for a building, way better than “HSBC Headquarters” or “Standard Chartered Building.”
