Wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

The annual Tufty-Ruijie birthday was held today, a good 8 days after his actual one. This time, he has a new fangled toy conventionally known as the Ninetendo Wii. Watched Weilin and Chip trying to box, outbowl and outscore each other in a series of sporting games. I tried out Mario Cart, which I find to be quite fun, despite consistenly finishing 12th out of 12 players. Also tried out the Pokemon-Mario-Sonic fighting game, whatever it's called.

As usual, Ruijie's mother impressed us with her cooking, with that baked potato, satay and pizza.

Went to watch Quantum of Solace. Seriously, the James Bond is the nemesis of the pro-family, conservative, religious right. He sleeps around with women (as usual),dumps his allies in the dumpster (and forgets about them), and is unapologetic for all the killings/wrongdoings he made. And yet, he never gets criticized. Sheesh. Anyway, I thought it was mildly interesting. I disliked Casino Royale, especially the abrupt and rapid ending. QOS suffers from the same problem, but the fight scenes are way more interesting.
