Indulgz Bistro

Yesterday I met up with my 3 secondary friends, Huizhen, Shuh Jing and Shin Huey. It has been a very long time since we met up.

Jing suggested to eat @ 川 一 品 some chinese steamboat restaurant around the Bugis Icon building. They have a variety of food but it was not really very nice. I guess maybe I didn't really like to eat chinese food. Each person need to pay 15 dollars. It's quite expensive in my opnion because I think the restaurant's food, ambience and hygience only worth about 10 dollars? This restaurant was actually operated by china people.

After that, we went on to have dessert behind the side of Bugis Icon. Jing actually wanted to introduce us to "Ice Heaven", a dessert shop served mostly ice... somewhat like ice kacang.. Not really to my liking. Luckily, that shop was closed! Suddenly something caught my eye! It was the bistro beside it! Its name - Indulgz. We were first attracted by the cakes display and then the chef actually came out of the bistro and greeted us. She was really sincere so we went in.

I actually wanted to order chocolate fondue but then my 3 friends didn't wanted that so... =( Anyway I order the bistro's speciality, Lemon Souffle! IT WAS DIVINE!!! They actually hand whipped the souffle by themselves and pour it into the margarita glass! Zhen had Strawberry Rhapsody, it's a dessert whereby only strawberries were served with handwhipped cream and sugar. It wasn't anything special but nevertheless it tasted good too. Jing had Tiramisu, which I didn't dig much because I wasn't a big fan of alcohol. Shin Huey had Choclate Brownies with ice-cream. I absolutely loved it!!! Oh did I mention that the crockery that they use to put the strawberries was rather cute? It was like a four leaf clover ^^


Behind L-R: My Lemon Souffle ^^ : Strawberry Rhapsody
Front L-R: Chocolate Brownie : Tiramisu


It was too bad that we didn't try their Entree, Sides, Burgers and Salad =((((( One of their pasta was quite unique, they actually fried angel hair, I had never tried pasta that way!

I highly recommend this bistro as the price is reasonable, the ambience is very nice! Next time I'm going there to eat till I drop!!! ^^ Hahahaha! Ok it is time for my evening jog now! Till the next time! Ta!!! ^^

A Traumatising Experience!

Hurrray!!!
I have one whole block leave to myself!!! Starting from 21st to 25th of August!
It's great to know that I won't need to wake up at 7am in the morning to get ready for work!
It's great to know that I won't doze off at sleep during work and I can take my nap anytime of the day with my bed near me!!!
\(-__-)\ Block Leave Banzai!!! /(-__-)/ Hahahaha ^^

Yesterday night, I just went to TLC with Gwen... My treatment for that night is... SPECTRA....

The purpose of this treatment is to minimise pores... I'm so freak out because I have never do this treatment before. And the sound of the machine is really scary... *Tatatatatata... TATATATATA....* O.O

Before the treatment started, I kept telling all the assitants that I was very very scared. Hahaha! Assitant A put a numbing cream onto my face, she was very generous, she pour alot of numbing cream onto my face, and I waited for like 20 mins, then assitant B came in and help me wipe off the numbing cream... assitant B commented that assitant A really put alot and alot of numbing cream! And that the doctor could on to the highest power for the machine to treat my face! My face felt swollen and numb but in reality my face wasn't really swollen. And then I was ushered to another room for the big "operation"!

They cover my eyebrows, eyes, stuff my ears with cotton wool. The doctor asked me to close my eyes... then the whole process started... I could smell like something was burning... I was clasping my hands, and I could felt another pair of hand was on mine. I was feeling quite touched that assitant C was so kind to comfort me. =)
But actually it wasn't really that painful, thanks to the generous amount of numbing cream that assitant A put on me. It was only till the doctor did it to the part of my nose that I felt ouch! Then the doctor explained that it was because my nose have huge pores that's why... which I agreed... Must fast minimise that part.. it looked so hideous!

And the treatment for SPECTRA comes up to a whopping $472.50!!!

$$$ Trouble

Sigh...

Ridiculous it may sound but something just happened to my brother. His boss ran away with the company assets leaving my brother jobless...

The trouble is he just bought a car last year and is still trying to pay off the payment of the car monthly. Each month he needs to pay off around SGD500. Last time while he still had his job, my mom asked me to help him pay his monthly car fees just to lighten his burden. I agreed to only help him by contributing 50 dollars.

But up till now I still have not actually give him the money monthly because I find that I do not have enough money left each month for me to save. Then now my brother is jobless, how is he going to afford to pay the monthly 500 dollars for the car?

Yesterday night, my mom came into my room, with redden and wet eyes, obviously she was no the verge of crying. She told me that my brother and I need to help with the flat debt. Because her money is drying up soon..

My first reaction:
Remain quiet...

After awhile she just kept saying did I hear her? And I must try to minimise my spendings.

My reaction in my mind:
Angry, frustrated...

Bad side of me thinking:
In the first place, if you can't afford a brand new flat, why would you want to buy it? Buying this flat just tied down too many things, plus it is making her suffer as it is a huge liability. I know that she was thinking during that time, that when my brother and I grew up and started working, we could help her. But I'm sorry to say that her 2 children are useless... My brother's career never took off, after all these years of working his pay came to be only SGD 2,500. As for me, needless to say, I suffered the same fate as my brother. I guess she didn't foresee that! Plus I really need to save up to get a new computer. I can't imagine how am I going to do that if she ask me to contribute a good 400-500 dollars per month(while I only earn 1,350 after CPF) AND also help my brother with his car loan!!! I have got other things like wisdom tooth extraction to worry about... And what about after my job contract? I still need some money to make it through until the company has new projects to do and provided that they are willing to call me back then I can guarantee that I have a job! Anyway I know what you all are thinking, that I'm a selfish bitch. But I admit that I am a selfish bitch...so...

Good side of me thinking:
It is not like I'm not grateful that my mom wants us to live comfortably. Really, I'm truly grateful to her for that. I know my family needs me now. And that as a part of the family, I have got to help out. But it is just isn't fair. When stuff like this happened, my mom will always come to me... And when I kept quiet etc, she will point finger at me saying that I'm selfish etc etc... But never once I heard her say that my brother is selfish or whatever... My mom is just biased... From young till now...
Anyway I told my friends about helping out with my brother's car loan, most of their reaction is why do I need to help him? Because I didn't even use his car! And there were one incident that I bought a new 300 dollar handphone and my brother said

"Wow, this 300 dollars amount to the 6 months of 50 dollars that you have promised to give me but haven't give me yet leh..."

I was really angry but kept quiet at that time. He still got the cheek to say that!? He asked my mom to ask me whether if I could help him and not ask me personally, yet still dare to say such things? Plus is that the tone to ask someone for help? It was because of that incident that I was reluctant to help him. Yesterday when my mom told me about us contributing into the flat debt, I could not bear to tell her that if she couldn't afford to buy a new flat, why buy? That is what my father told her before and she was really angry! So I kept very quiet yesterday. I will help my mom with the flat debt but I can only help so much so I would just tell her I can only give her how much and pray that she don't say it's just too little. Don't expect me to pay a good 400-500 dollars, I am not earning 3k of salary here...I can't help my brother with his car loan already. But I will see how...

Maybe I worry too much, maybe my brother can find a job soon. Maybe everything will solve in time... But everything is just "maybe"... =(

Chinese Fortune Telling

Got the link from Gwen's blog!

http://www.superfate.com/22_free_8word/

My analysis is as follows:

◎Your life is represented by the sword of power, which means you will head for success after gone through many difficulties in your youth. (I seriously hope this is true... cos so far I don't have a smooth life...) You are a person of leadership and justice, quite devoted, and able to work under great pressure.(This is so not me... WRONG!) You are also very generous(not so sure about that... haha) and you like well-behaved and wise people. (yes very true!) With your leadership ability, you can break through any dissatisfying situation. ◎

Your characteristics, subconscious, and behavior modes, according to your fate and destiny, are represented by the sword(yes this is true.. my element is metal so sword represent a metal?), not only with soft-white skin, yet bright, attractive with femininity(WRONG again...). You are a bit bossy and dominating, but have leadership ability(WRONG!).

You are capable and talented, with a great sense of justice and righteousness, and willing to help others for the sake of justice. Like a sword, you are able to cut through a difficult or unsatisfactory situation and eventually change your fate and destiny. You may hurt yourself carelessly with a double-edged sword if you are too aggressive and pressuring people around you. You may be dominating with your appearance, but have a loving heart to protect the weak with a sense of justice and fairness. (Whole paragraph is not true except for the sake of justice part...)

However, a good sword needs to be molded and sharpened, so those that cannot pass the test and process only become scrap iron. (Yeah now I am scrap iron ah!! Hahaha!) Being determined and unafraid of the challenges, not blaming others, and learning and growing are the essential elements to become a respected leader. You like intelligent people with artistic talent and dislike hypocrites.(VERY true!) You admire those who are willing to sacrifice and dedicate themselves to others with a sense of justice. As long as you pass the challenge and test, your entire life will be unaffected by any storm or blocked by any obstacle to become a winner.

◎Health Analysis: Your cardiovascular function is weaker.◎

According to your destiny analysis, your cardiovascular function is weaker, which caused minor problems like pimples, mouth and tongue sores, and unsmooth periods when you were young. But over age 40, your cardiovascular function requires additional care, or you might have major problems such as high blood pressure, high hem sterone, unusual heart rhythm, eye pressure problems, gynecologic problem(same as what master luo has warn me) and other abnormal functions leading to heart diseases, stroke, or loss of vision. Therefore, it's very important for you to maintain a stable schedule in your life, avoid fatigue, and, most importantly, do not stay up overnight.(I always almost stayed up late everyday!) If possible, have a blood test and electrocardiogram periodically and pay more attention if there's any family history of hereditary palatine canal system and cardio diseases such as heart disease, high blood pressure, apoplexy, cerebral hemorrhage, myocardial infarction, etc. Try to eliminate iced and cold drinks in order to avoid losing your vitality.

There's a saying that all disease starts from the mouth, which means many human diseases are related to food. According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, food can be divided into gold, wood, water, fire and earth (concept of the five elements). You seem to prefer bitter flavors like black coffee and chocolate, which means your cells are filled with too much fire element.(SHIT man! Dark chocolate is a fire element? I love it so much leh!) This negatively affects your health, fortune and career, so we suggest you try different foods to balance your diet and nutrition, which leads to harmony in life and a balance of yin and yang based on the five elements. In addition, if you have recently felt unlucky or things were not going smoothly, then you are probably affected by bad spirit, which caused bad luck. The best solution is not to eat meat and fish for a period of time until the bad spirit goes away. The bad spirit tends to stay with those who eat meat and fish, and also chicken, duck, green onion, garlic, leek and other spices, so a vegetarian diet can help change your luck.

◎Health Analysis: Your liver and gall is weaker as well.◎

Your liver and gall is weaker as well, so you tend to tire easily and can't do labor-intensive jobs. You may have had irritability and acne when you were young. But over age 40, your liver and gall require additional care, or you may have problems such as cholesterol and triglyceride, abnormal liver, liver or gall deceases, or even suffer a delining immune system, which leads to failing eyesight.(I have already a failing eyesight liao la!) Therefore, it's very important for you to pay attention to your liver and gall and maintain a stable schedule for your life. Monitor your glycerin level, consume less alcohol, avoid fatigue, and most importantly, do not to stay up overnight.

According to your destiny analysis, you are a night owl as you seem to be more energetic and inspired at night, so you tend to sleep late and get up late. (DAMN they are correct!!!) However, sleeping and waking up early is extremely helpful to your fate and destiny, even though it's not easy for you. You don't easily offend others as you don't like to be the one on top.(Just now they say I can be a leader now say I don't like to be the one on top? Makes no sense... But master luo say that I don't like to be on the top...) You better stay away from alcohol if you want to change your fate and destiny, as it drains your energy quickly and negatively affects your fortune. If you are able to develop the good habit of sleeping and waking up early, it will completely change your fate and destiny with better health, more wealth and happiness coming into your life.

◎There is a background difference between you and your love partner, so it's not easy for him to really understand you. The things you care about he might think totally unimportant and vice versa, so you tend disagree easily over small things.◎

In romance, according to our analysis, men usually like you at first sight. (Where got so easy one...) If they win your heart, a romance develops quickly, but doesn't last long because it's difficult to maintain the same level of passion from beginning to end.(This is quite true!) Generally speaking, you make a good first impression because you are charming and capable, but over time your passion is replaced by arguments. You are often admired, but are not satisfied with what you have, and your romantic partner may be very sticky if you want to break up. Therefore, if you are still waiting for a good romance, try to conceal your outer beauty in order to find more sincere and suitable lovers who aren't just attracted to your looks. Then true romance will come your way.

In the journey of life, your romantic or marriage partner is not easily found by love at first sight. You need to spend time together and interact in a neutral setting before the possibility of love. The relationship might start from working together, and time spent together planning or meeting regularly. You tend to concentrate and focus on career and work, so you may marry later in life.(Just like what master luo, I am not suitable to marry early) If you are still seeking your love partner, among those around you, someone who has a deep understanding and strong ability might be the one. As long as you sincerely give a little hint, the happiness is right beside you.

◎Career Analysis: Most of your jobs, in any industry, require some leadership and management skills, teamwork.◎

Most of your jobs, in any industry, require some leadership and management skills, teamwork; your career may also involve non-profit government organizations. For example, manager, general manager, high level management, plant manager, government or legal official, auditor, investigator, soldier, police officer, non-profit organization volunteer, etc. These types of jobs might not have the same professional training required for the corporate world, but will offer personal growth and teamwork challenges. If you choose these types of jobs, then your work will go smoothly, but you may lack the professional training for an executive position in the future. You should further strengthen your professional training because you have good management skills, but might not understand technical staff well enough or have a strong foundation for important decision-making. Jobs in other fields that require creativity or working independently are not suitable for you. (wa lau cannot do creativity jobs? Go to hell la! Master luo said different things leh.. I can't manage ppl!)

◎Wealth Analysis: You know how to make and save money, so you are seldom short of cash.◎

According to your destiny analysis, you know how to make and save money, so you are seldom short of cash. You knew the importance of the money since you were very young, so you started working earlier than others. Therefore, you were making money with investments while others were spending money and enjoying their lives. In addition, you were born very clever, and will not spend money if unnecessary, but when it comes to business investment, you are not stingy because you always wanted to be your own boss. You will be investing most of your wealth to establish your business. Afterwards, you will not bequest much to your descendants, instead you will donate money to a charity or hospital because you think your descendants gain wealth by working hard on their own. (er right... I'm ALWAYS short of cash one and don't know how to save money. Maybe last time when I was young I knew how to but not now!)

That's how I spent my weekends!

Wooohohoho... The recent Saturday was turly well spent! Went out with Gwen, Val and Zen. We went to NYDC for dinner and catching up. Talked a whole lot about "sheng cheng ba zi" and who is what element and "shi shen". ~___~

There after, we went to HMV, made alot of stupid jokes like kept promoting "Mistress of Spice" to Gwen and Val. Hahaha XD In the end, I bought Little Britain and Birth. I haven't got my chance to watch Birth yet... hahaha =p Then we went to Starbucks to sit down and have a chat. We played this card game call Office Scandal! Quite fun! It was one of the gifts that Zen gave me.

The birthday gift that Zen gave me...

chopstick, an ultra nice looking notebook and the Office Scandal! card game. ^^

The pack of cards consists of different things like "Blackmail", "Promotion", "Busted", "Demotion" etc. If you see the green card properly, the person is actually kissing the boss's ass! Haha... And the middle "Busted" card, the person is surfing porn!

A very big thank you to Zen for being so thoughtful! Buying us our gifts!! *Muacks and hugs*!

Ok anyway, my Sunday was spent watching Jay played Resident Evil 4. I even took some photos of Leon, the main character on the TV. It was badly taken though but I was quite bored so I thought it would be fun =p


Anyway Leon's features are designed after a model call Christian Duerre(left pic), I really find the resemblance!!! =D

Leon's pose when access into inventory screen.

Cutscene of Leon looking up at someone.

Leon's back view at the left side. He is shooting something.

Sorry for the ultra blur photos, don't know whether is because there is something wrong with my photo taking skills or my handphone camera simply just cannot make it. Haha...

So that conclude how I spent my weekends! Argh... tomorrow is MONDAY again... Back to work... But I'm definitely looking forward to 21st of Aug. It is the day where I can finally rest for a one whole week. (well, was being forced to take block leave so...) I will try to focus on working hard for the coming week and look less forward to the 1 week holiday! If not I won't have the mood to work at all!

Buy, buy, buy!

Los Illuminados


click on the picture for a larger view

Yes I know it's very bo liao to blog about what I want to buy but can't buy, what I am saving up to buy etc etc... But I just can't help it!

The picture above shows the 4 figurines that I want to collect! They are quite expensive. They are the enemies featured in Resident Evil 4. All the spanish monks who got infected by Las Plagas. I really like the design! But I have really no money to buy those because I am saving really really hard for a new computer.

My current computer is dying off soon. I don't even dare to off my computer. I'm afraid once I off it, it won't start up again... My budget for my computer is SGD2,000. Not too much yet not too little. Of course I want a ViewSonic monitor! Now I am just torn between a LCD monitor or a normal CRT. Because my table and room is quite small, LCD will definitely save alot of space. But the bad thing is, the colors of the LCD screen isn't as accurate as a normal CRT. But then again, I am not doing graphics. And also I want a dual processor so that my computer won't be so laggy! >_<

Next thing on my list is... DS Lite games... I have got like 6 games that I wanted to buy. But seriously, they will be my last priorities because I am already very busy with Animal Crossing.

Sob sob... frankly speaking, I'm not saving fast enough. =( Let's hope I can save at least 500 dollars next month. As for my expensive monthly TLC treatments, I shall try to delay until Nov or Dec this year to do... If not I will never ever going to buy that computer I want and need!

I really need the extra money! I have never ever do any freelance before! One thing is skill wise, not good enough, if not good enough means cannot do fast enough. Secondly, lazy. Thirdy, due to not having enough skills, I won't be so "well-known" among the industry and therefore I won't have any lobangs! Hahaha... Well... Got to push myself further in my training!!! Cannot be lazy! 6 more months to go before my contract ends and it's time to pack up and find a new job! So must really start to work hard on making my skills go up instead of being stagnant, or even worse drop down. -___-

Serendipity

The time is nearly 3am. I'm still up, chatting with a colleague of mine at SS. Suddenly we talked about secondary school days. I bet everyone has some special memories during that period of time right? =)
For example, for me, I really love my secondary school library... it is a place where I can be alone and at peace. I still remember there are lots of books and comics to read!

The distant memory I'm about to disclose means alot to me... and whenever I recalled it, I will feel quite emotional about it.

I still remember it happened during my upper secondary school years. My friend HZ and I were so bored that we checked out the vandalism on our tables. Haha, you know there were always people writing stupid stuff on the table!
As I was saying, we were very very bored so an idea just strike us! We decided to write something like

"Hi! Would you like to be my penpal?".

on the table. I remembered it was on a friday that we wrote that particular question. We would never thought anyone would reply us.

Then over the weekend, someone did reply! The reply was a positive one so HZ and I then started to write letters introducing ourselves etc etc.. to and fro to that person. We did not divulge our real names in the the letter so we gave ourself pen-names when we correspond with him/her. Our names were Panther and Shape-Shifter. We were always very excited to receive the replied letters! Somehow this person was god-sent. Our school days were not boring anymore as we looked forward to receiving the letters.

For once we wonder how was this person like... somehow, our imagination went overdrive, we thought he/she might be a pyscho or something so we stopped writing letters to that person immediately. But this person still wrote to us, he/she did questioned us why did we stopped writing to him/her.

Anyway, we then wanted to find out who was this person who constantly wrote to us because at that time, we were in the morining session and the class was occupied by the afternoon session after we were done using the class. So we concluded it must be someone from lower secondary.

That day we discovered it was a pretty chinese-indo girl sitting at my seat. So we confronted her whether was it her who replied our letters. But she denied having writing those letters. There was nothing we could do so we went off...

A few days went pass... and Monday came. To our surprise, there under the table space where you could put books, was a note and a Slam Dunk(in one of our correspondences, we mentioned we are huge fans of Slam Dunk) bookmark.
We opened and read...

"2 Shape & Pant,
Remember me! Tell u the truth, actually I don't school here.
I came here only on last sat and I explore the whole school with
Caroline*, then I came 2 your class & saw your table + question**
so I just wrote my name down. I guess you start writing 2 me on
Monday, when Caroline found out then everytime you wrote 2 me,
Caroline will bring home to tell me. Actually I'm home staying at
Caroline's house. I'm going back to England today(Monday). Here
4 u 2 remember me. I spend 30 min writing it nicely, hope u will
appreciate it. Sorry 4 lying 2 u all the time. 4give me ok! If not I
won't leave in peace!
Ciao!

Lee '97

ps: Don't accused Caroline of writing the letter, her handwriting is
not so bad. "


*:Caroline was the pretty chinese-indo girl.
**: The question was "Hi do you want to be penpal?"



After reading the note, it dawned on us that the person who replied our letter was not a pyscho. We were upset that Lee was gone. And that we did not write to him during the time we were doubting about him. He left us a note and a Slam Dunk bookmark. in the end, HZ took the bookmark while I took the note. From that day onwards, I carried that note in my wallet.

I guess not everyone encounter such unusual, interesting and almost-romantic way of befriending another person right? Is fate not a funny thing? It arranges us to meet him this way but when the time is up, he just left our life so quickly. Lee will be forever remain a mystery to us... and a bittersweet memory. Sometimes, some things are easily forgetten, but serendipity like this will always remain to be a part of us.

Whenever I took out the note to read, I will always wonder how is Lee, what is he doing, is he doing fine? Although I will never see him again, I will always say a little prayer for him, hoping that he has already found happiness wherever he is.

Humanmetrics Test

Hehehe this is a personality test I take. This test is based on some dead german professor who studied human pyschology for his whole life.

Check it out!
http://www.humanmetrics.com/cgi-win/JTypes2.asp

I'm a Composer Artisan (iSfP)

Things that are quite true about me is...

ISFPs may be quite charming and ingratiating on first acquaintance, flowing with compliments which may (or may not) be deserved. On other occasions, the same individual may be aloof and detached. (Yes this is true for me! Take for e.g when I just arrived at SS my workplace, I could talk to the colleagues there but after awhile, I just kept my distance.)

Their interest can be held better through experiential learning, at which many excel. ISFPs will practice playing an instrument or honing a favored skill for hours on end, not so much as practice as for the joy of the experience. (This is definitely true! I only do well in something which I think it's a joy doing it. Not because of practise!)

ISFPs often live out 'id' experiences rather than writing or even talking about them. (As all my friends know, I like to role play and imagine scenarios.)

If the individual has values greater than herself, feeling may express itself in valiant acts of selflessness. Turned in upon self, however, it becomes an unscrupulous, capricious enigma, capable even of heinous acts of deception and treachery. (Yes this is true too... I'm actually evil! I told you all already!)

Just a warning, that there might be too much text. So if you want to avoid reading a sudden outburst of text then I think you shouldn't take the test. But actually it's not THAT much of text! Hahaha! Enjoy!

Death Note

Whooo hooo finally weekend has arrived! I got something to blog about! Well it's something I want to share with my friends!!!

Recently I got myself hooked on this comic call "Death Note". The storyline attracts me! Usually I hate comic book like One Piece and Bleach or Naruto kind because it's always out-of-the-world scenario. Whereas Death Note is more towards modern society backdrop. Well it kind of mixed with some fantasy element.

Death Note is about this God of Death, Ryuk, who dropped his "Death Note" (it's a notebook where the God of Death wrote the person's name when they want the person to die.) into the human world. Once the notebook got dropped into the human world, it would automatically belong to the human world. So he dropped his notebook, and there was this ace uni student called Light Yagami who saw the notebook and picked it up.

In the notebook, there were instructions on how to use the notebook to kill people. In order to kill someone, you have got to see the person's face before and must know the name, then the killing could be proccessed. The person who got the notebook could see the previous owner, which is the God of Death. There are many God of Death. Ryuk is one of them. And the God of Death would always follow the newest owner of the death notebook until the newest owner died or the notebook lifespan was over.

At first Light is very skeptical about this notebook, he thought it was a joke. Then one day, he tried to kill a criminal with the notebook and the criminal really died. Only then, he believed it was true! Anyway, if you write the person's name down yet you didn't write how he is going to die, after 40 seconds, the person would just die of heart attack. But if you did write down the reason, you could however manipulate the time of death for that person.

After seeing Ryuk and knowing that he had enormous power on his hand, he wanted to rid all the baddies and criminals out of the corrupted world. But on the other hand, a secret police detective name L appeared and challenged him. L could not condone his actions and he thought what Light did was a huge massacre. So he wanted to catch Light and put him behind bars.

Light on the other hand thought what he did was correct, and he bent on doing what he firmly believed was right. He wanted to rid the world off of baddies, but he got to be a bit too ambitious... He wanted to be the world's new age God!

So this comic book is more about Light vs L. It's very interesting!
It's also about how a human changes when he knows he has the power to change the world. The power blinded his goals and aspirations.

My favourite character in the comic book is Light and Ryuk the God of Death.


Right: Light Yagami Left: God of Death Ryuk

I like Light for his arrogant and full-of-himself kind of attitude. He is a very confident person. Very very smart too. But a pity! He is too arrogant for his own good. Now we all know that people who are like that won't have happy ending, don't we? Haha..

I like Ryuk for the character design! Very nice!


Light with his cocky face that says - "I'm definitely going to be God of this world!"
