If you happen to have a thing for Japanese gameshows, then you better take a look at Banzai, a DVD game by ScreenLife Games. It is hilaaaariousss.. I dunno what it is about Japanese gameshows but they never fail to crack me up. I get highly amused. And I think this is one totally cool game to add to our list of slumber party games that my girlfriends and I have. My girlfriends and I are always up for new games to play to fill out those boring nights. So when I checked out Banzai, I was pretty sure we’d have total fun with it.

The game’s pretty easy to play. Basically it’s like a quiz based on a funny clip. You gotta bet on what the outcome of the clip will be. To bet on the game, you gotta put as many cute lil sushi thingies into a bowl using only chopsticks. Whoever gets the answer right gets all the sushi in the bowl, which is mainly the objective of the game. If I didn’t explain it well, you can check out how to play it here.

The star of the game, Tako, is a cute lil sectopus (octupus with six tentacles) that even has his own MySpace account! Hehehe. You can go check out his MySpace account to know more about him. And if you’re anything like Tako, this game would be super fun to be played when tipsy! Hehe..

ScreenLife Games is at it again. They launched a new Banzai game. Check it out:

Will you look at the time. 7:42am and I’m still awake. I’ve been having trouble sleeping lately and it’s getting worse because what used to be 4am for my bedtime has now turned into 11am. Yup. I’ve become Dracula. Minus the fangs. And the desire for blood. Oh, and the jet black hair. Do I burn when sunlight hits me? I dunno. Haven’t tried it lately. *shrugs

Shemah and I did a lot of catching up just now. She hasn’t been sleeping well too since Danial passed away. Poor thing. So since I’ve got my connection working, we chatted for a few hours, mostly about home. Oh, and also about ‘jus peria’ or bitter melon juice! Haha. Lemme tell you how Shemah convinced me to WANT to drink bitter melon juice..

As some of you might know, my sis Shemah was hospitalized several months ago because of this really weird viral infection that mainly affected both her legs. So long story short, the doctors were never really able to cure it 100%. So Mom told her to opt for a traditional way of healing and what she hadta do was drink the juice of half a bitter melon. Every. Single. Day. Dang, that’s a LOT! She started drinking a couple of weeks ago and just now, she told me that the juice had done wonders not only on her legs but also her skin. Even my Mom and my maid jumped on the bitter melon juice bandwagon and both of them claimed they saw remarkable results. My Mom would do anything for beauty. I’d remember her telling me to eat so many weird things and when I refused, she’d say, “Mau cantik ka ndak??!!” (d’ya wanna be pretty or not?). Sometimes I’d say no. Hehehe. But this time I’m thinkinggg… Yes Mommy, I do! Apparently, after drinking the bitter melon juice, my maid’s pimples started to clear up and my Mom’s friend also noticed the difference in my Mom’s skin. When Shemah told me that, I instantly perked up..

Shemah and I always joked how we wanted to have that certain face. That face that looked like you have a lightbulb in your head and your face just glows from within. So Shemah was telling me that she was starting to notice the lightbulb look on her. I want a lightbulb too!!!

So that’s how I got hooked on this ‘jus peria’ beauty tip. It’s peria for god sake! Bitter as hell! But for the sake of beauty??? I guess I could spare a couple of ringgit to have the lightbulb look. And also spare the death of my tastebuds. All in the name of beauty.

p/s: On another note, check out this super adorable brand called Tea Collection for kids! Sangat cute!

Just last week my friends and I were discussing how music labels nowadays tend to find their talents on social networks like MySpace or even YouTube. Our famous sexy Sabahan gal, Che ‘Nelle was discovered on MySpace and so was Sean Kingston. And how about Marie Digby who suddenly shot up to fame just by playing around with her guitar and sang for people on YouTube. When you think of it like that, it seems so easy to rise to fame, doesn’t it? Maybe I should get my harmonica, create a MySpace account and rock it on YouTube. Oh, but then again I don’t play the harmonica. And I don’t think harmonicas are cool anyways. But who knows those big shot music moghuls might like something fresh. Hehe.

This exclusive interview with John Esposito, the CEO of WEA, just confirms my belief that making it big in the music industry isn’t easy breezy. Don’t talk about making it big, even getting signed by a label is hard enough. Watch the interview to know what I’m talking about.

So.. hmmm.. how do I be a star? Maybe I should stick with acting. Singing was never my forte.

Sakit hati! After what felt like 1000 words, I was ready to publish my post. Clicked on the publish button and the bloody page didnt wanna load. Turns out that I was effing disconnected! Argh! I was just gonna tell about the accident my friend was in. But since I’m lazy to go and draft it out again, I’m just gonna save it for another day. IF I still remember. I just hope she has auto insurance for her car. Good thing she’s still ok though..

Urgh. Why doesn’t Wordpress have an autosave feature like Blogger? Damn u! Menyusahkan orang!
