Guess which one is Sherlock Holmes? so obvious.

This is modernized version of Sherlock Holmes. They maintained all the characters in Sherlock Holmes but the background is in 21st century. The cases were inspired by the Sherlock story but they changed and adapted it to be suitable for current environment. As what happened in the book, Dr. Watson accidentally become Sherlock Holmes’s housemate after he was back from army. His psychiatrist suggested to him to write his life in a blog (in book, that would be in a journal). So this series follows Holmes and Watson in solving mysteries together or most of the time together. However the series is really short, only 3 episodes which one case per episode.

I love the series and I had goosebumps when Sherlock made a deduction on pilot episode. Sadly the series is too short.

1. My usual activities when back in KL, renting movies but not much interesting movie available.

2. I checked out new shopping complex near my house, KL Festival City. I know right what’s up with the name. Everyone has been asking whether that’s the real name or is it temporary.The shopping mall has many outlets than other malls near my house but slight more on pricing. Not many restaurant but some aren’t at other malls. Can you believe that I couldn’t find car park exit. I was lost in car park..

3. I visited my old friend who very long time I didn’t meet. The previous time I met her, she was single and that day, I visited her 2 months baby. Aih why I waited for so long to meet her? BTW I bumped into a friend of mine who I met in same group as my friend. What a coincidence but also awkward because I dunno small talk.

4. Steamboat with Roha-chan at  Steamboat, Ikano. Wah! Quite far for a feast right? Initially I planned to go to KL to see claimed road emptiness but didn’t because rain. BTW, the emptiness was all lies. A lot of people at Ikea and on the road but yup no traffic jam.

Mine was clear soup

5. Monday was stay-at-home-doing-nothing day and Tuesday was going-back-to-Rompin day. I’m guessing the rest of you also had a nice holiday well except for Epun and Cik Mah. oupss…sorry for trolling.

While we driving to Kuantan, we made a stop at Pekan to see the rest of our colleagues.

The program..

lemang periuk kera..I was not as excited as before because I tasted it

Then we off to Kuantan to Megamall (Yup, Kuantan also have a Megamall but a slight empty).

While waiting for my friend, I saw this grouup of aunties dancing while wearing cheongsam. I don't condone woman wearing sexy cloth and dancing but I like how they stay active and keep fit. Should be an example but for dancing, better in closed door.

Then we went to Teluk Cempedak (TC for locals). At first I expected TC wouldn’t be beautiful because this is not in Terengganu but when I saw it, well its not bad. Totally better than in PD.

McD (Using McD far too long...McDonalds now sound foreign to me. Does anyone feel the same.

The beach and sea..

end of post.

I’m renting a house with non-muslim. This has been questioned with one of my friend because when we studied during school, we were told that aurat between muslim woman and non-muslim woman is same as muslim woman and non-mahram man. However during my university years, I found out that there is another khilaf that the aurat will be like muslim woman with muslim woman and I’ve been hold onto this opinion because it kinda hard in hostel. Since my current friend asked me about this, I rechecked with internet and found out that 2 opinions because of interpretation of`auNisaa’ ihinna’. Some ulama says it is mean muslimah and some ulama says good and nice woman.

So I’m going back to my main point. So my friend joined this one course only for woman. The instructor also tudung wearing woman. What so upsetting was she was posting pictures at of my friends at her facebook page (and later on we found at her blog) because she was promoting her business. Some of the picture show my friend with out tudung and this truly make my friend and me mad because she should know better. She also wearing a proper tudung so she should understand and respect other muslim woman. I realize that even my non-muslim housemates showing more respect because  they never bring any guys or only their mothers enter the house while their father wait outside. However, person who should know better didn’t do the same.

The instructor removed the picture after my friend asked her to but she should never show that pictures in the first place.

I’m ranting here on behalf of my friend….

This anime is a ‘school life’ genre. The story is about a group of school mates especially two social awkward students who made a club for those who has no friend in hope that it will help them in getting friend. Members of the club are; a boy who doesn’t have friend because other people judge him wrongly, a girl who can’t express her words nicely, beautiful and famous girl who can only look down at others, a girl otaku, a boy who looked likes a girl (I still confused whether he is really a boy who look likes a girl or a girl who wanna be a boy), a gothic cosplayer who is also the boy’s sister and a very young nun as their club teacher. The club has been their sanctuary and they become friend with out they realizing it.

The first thing I noticed when I watch this anime was the lead guy who has blond hair (some people would questioning my surprise because anime characters could have what ever hair color, but typical lead character in this genre usually have dark hair). Then I understand why they chose that color because it is script/story purpose. He doesn’t have friend because his schoolmates mistook him as delinquent.

I like this anime because I like the characters and how they interact. Even though most of the characters are typical anime characters but the dialogue and interaction quite close to real life. I also have a favorite moment when the lead guy remember who Yozora (lead girl) was. So sweet….

Kimi to Boku

Sometimes if the story is interesting, I love school life genre. My favorite anime in this kind of genre are Azumanga Daioh and K-On. However when I watched these animes, I was a bit aggrieved because all the characters are female. So I was a bit disappointed because I couldn’t watch guys character but ‘Kimi to Boku’ is the answer for my wish. School life drama about friendship with male as main characters. I’m happy which also mean I’m ‘straight’.

This anime tell stories about a group of best friends in 2nd year of high school that have been friend since kindergarten. Yuuki and Yuuta are identical twin who have similar traits but with different personality. Yuuki is more laid-back and have devil may care attitude than Yuuta but they are very close. Shun who is soft and feminine, Kaname is the guy who’s wearing spectacle, the student council and class monitor and Chizuru, the bubbly, happy-go-lucky and talkative Japanese speaking foreigner. The anime tell about their love story, friendship and normal issue at school and sometime their antics quite hilarious and make you smile because it might had happened to you during school.

Really…really nice but them being guys is a plus.

Un-Go

Detective/mystery/deduction meets supernatural story. Shinjirou is a private detective who is nicknamed “The Defeated Detective” because he presumably always beaten by Rinroku Kaishou who also famous detective who investigate cases from computer because he also created a nation security system. Even though Shinjirou is “The Defeated detective”, he isn’t really making mistakes in solving cases but his cases usually involve in national security issue so mostly have been covered up and said has been solved by Rinroku Kaishou and police. Shinjirou also accompanied with Inga as assistant and this is where the story goes supernatural. Inga is not actually human and there is also Kazamuri Sasa (Real Artificial Inteligence). Other character would be Rie Kaishou and many more but I don’t really see the significant of other characters.

The cases are a bit different because it also involving  war, terrorism and so on but off course there are cases solving who killed who. Since there are also supernatural part, some cases includes supernatural environment and Shinjirou needs to consider supernatural part in solving the cases.

Sometime it was a bit confusing for me.

Natsume Yujin-Chou san

I have to say this upfront. I totally LOVE, I mean L.O.V.E this anime. This is my favorite for long running anime. It has suspense, horror, sweet drama, sweet life, bitter sweet loneliness and friendship. What could not love about this anime.

This is the third season for this anime. I know that I’m late because they showing the fourth season now. I’m now watching the fourth season. Natsume continue seeing spirit/ghosts/monster and he still returning name of spirits from “Book of Friends” which previously belong to his late grandmother. So in this season, Natsume getting better term with his adopted parents, his close friends who he is keeping the secret of being able to see spirits, his close friends who know his secret, his old ally but he also have some non- good people or spirits like a clan of exorcist. This anime is so sweet, I keep remembering episode where a ghost liked to tease Natsume when he was a child but during that time, he hated it but then he grow up and experience many things and so he realized the ghost intention.

I like the drawing, the pace,the song. Everything suited with each other and give a really nice anime.

One word to describe this anime “Bittersweet”.

2. After something had been a habit, than it become automated. This morning I realized that I hooked my badge in my car and I totally didn’t realize that I did that. This was a habit of mine when I worked at previous company because I afraid I left it at my house.

3. I read in my fav forum/chat thread that Kuala Lumpur was having heat wave and I’m here, sleeping under blanket every night, didn’t use sunblock for a few month. The disadvantage would be cold shower.

4. I was slightly ticked by my housemate. I boiled water yesterday night so that I could take it away to office but this morning I found that she reheat the water for her shower. Could you understand my feeling?

5. I have been cooking breakfast and bring it to office because I’m in a diet. Actually I cooked it last night and reheat in the morning and imagine it as cute bento. Maybe I’ll post the picture under ‘kepoyoan’ and the password is the same as entries under ‘kepoyoan’.

6. I’ve been  sleeping late and woke up early because no. 1 . My beauty sleep!!!!

7. I just witnessed hysteria for a first time and I couldn’t believe it at first because she is one of my friend and this had never happened before. I just don’t understand…

Actually spending time with my bffs is the most enjoying part even though only watch Sherlock Holmes 4 halfway to finish because a slight change of plan. Well I’m going to re-watch it when the DVD out. Couldn’t really understand what they were saying.

Happy New Year!! When I’m writing this entry, I still dunno what I’m going to do for this long week and to make matter worse I’m in Rompin (actually it isn’t bad, if not I already KL right now. Well, I’m staying, it means that I don’t hate Rompin much)
