I, Jigoku

For those wondering, 'Jigoku' means 'Hell' in Japanese, well sort of, i guess, almost 100% sure it is.....Well anyway, for those who've been wondering what I've been up to since my rather obvious and rather pleasing disappearance from your miserable lives, rest assured, I'm not exactly having a smashing time either. Well, it's marginally better than the perils down under, but still far from ideal. Work as i have explained to some before will always be work. There's no such thing as whether u enjoy it, find it interesting, find it boring, etc, etc. At the end of the day we do it for the money, because money puts food on the table (it also gets you the table in the first place mind you, but i suppose anyone with an affinity for carpentry could easily enough build one from scratch but i digress), so although i find accounting/auditing breathtakingly boring, it is the path which i have been shoved upon so there's that. Trying to turn back now would of course be bordering on the suicidal. So i shall plod along and hope that i don't slip and fall into hell by accident, it's a long shot but i'd still like to try and get through them pearly white gates among the clouds. When it's time to go of course (which is hopefully not anytime soon, but as i tend to say when devoid of any smart arse comments, "As He wills it"). Well, for all the "minor" troubles, there have been of course brief and sparse moments of the funnies. Let's recount the events of the past weeks. Went to weekly Novena with Greg and Andrew, soccer with the Upps on most sundays, a minor shopping spree before the increase in GST, and of course went to watch Transformers with BL and Neeraj/Sagathi. This is of course a brief summary of events, most recent of which was when Clarence, James, Roy and I went to, guess what, play LAN again at Bugis. And guess what i saw at the arcade there, Initial D Stage 4!! Damn was it fine, the screen was a flat screen LCD display! Awesome graphics abound! Goes to show how backward good ole' "down under" is, true to its namesake. And this is where the post ends, reviews on any new anime, movies, games or books/manga which i have encountered will be in an up-coming post, followed closely by a special National Day special (the Singapore one that is), where i shall write about what pisses me off about the country (most of which have to do with the "garmen", aka P#P, aka Men in White, aka Braindead society extraodinaire). For now i leave you with a line which i have adapted from the anime which has most recently captured my attention, Jigoku Shoujo, The Girl from Hell.
"When you die you'll fall into the pits of hell, but that's after you die of course."
