Is it going to be National Day soon? I could still remember the one I went last year so vividly. This would be the Singapore 39th year of independence.

So what have happened to me during this whole month?

I've finally bought my dream car. It's a Honda Civic Vti. I initially thought it's impossible to own due to it's pricing. But I manage to find one which not only fits the bill, it's the colour that I love too... sexy black!



Watched I, Robot over the weekend with Eliss.

Set in a future Earth (2035 A.D.) where robots are common assistants and workers for their human owners, this is the story of "robotophobic" Chicago Police Detective John Spooner's (Smith) investigation into the murder of Dr. Alfred Lanning (James Cromwell), who works at U.S. Robotics, in which a robot, Sonny (Tudyk), appears to be implicated, even though that would mean the robot had violated the Three Laws of Robotics, which is apparently impossible. It seems impossible because.. if robots can break those laws, there's nothing to stop them from taking over the world, as humans have grown to become completely dependent upon their robots. Or maybe... they already have? Aiding Spooner in his investigation is a psychologist, Dr. Susan Calvin (Moynahan), who specializes in the psyches of robots.

I find the CGI really awesome, the cyborgs looked so lifelike. The plot is nothing new, but has a twist when Spooner reviewed some personal secrets about his past.



The Audi RSQ Concept car is just so awesome. Just imagine behind the wheels, with auto pilot on while you listen to some chill out music. Awesome!
