Tagged by Adeq, i had been thinking of sharing my favorite links long time ago thus thanks for tagged me.
=================================================================

The Linking Tag Rules

1. List out five favourite links - the links can be of business sites, affiliate links or whatever that suits the blogger.
2. Tag five more people to share their links, so hopefully, at the end of the tag, we would be able to share good links with each other.
3. The links MUST be clean. No X-rated sites.
4. List out only FIVE links.
5. You MUST tell FIVE people you choose.
6. Provide the link back to the person who tagged you.
7. Obviously, it should be an active link.

My 5 favourite links:

1) Kapasitor.Net is a place where you could read poem, stories, blog and other creative materials. It's created by Jojo firstly as personal blog to post his "Aku Budak Setan: Nazihah" masterpiece and grows into an awesome creative content community. I love to read blog, poem and short story. A must read for everyday dose of creative content.

2) My Blog of course! Since i have most of fellow bloggers of mine in the link on the right panel, i always load my blog page first thing in the morning. Also to read the comments & any new shoutout (eventhough i rarely reply to it).

3) Wikipedia now the giant pimp of trustworthy and valid information of the Net. It might be freely edited but with tight regulation and references required to validate articles, it become hot spot for knowledge centre in the Net. Read the news and trivia (facts of the day kinda) and you will amaze to where the article could wiki-hopping you to another articles.

4) English - Japanese Online Dictionary provide a place for freaking Japanophile. The dictionary provide quick references for standard words and the best thing about this dictionary is it accepts *romaji so even if your PC not support Japanese character display & keyboard setup, you could still find the meaning of word using romaji.

*Romaji is way to spell Japanese words using alphanumeric character. Example to try: gomen nasai in Jap -> English.

5) Drama Wiki is among the best wiki for Asian drama. Since this wiki is a project of D-Addicts, it pretty much cover certain countries only which are Japan, Korea, Hong Kong, Chinese, Taiwan & Singapore. It provide comprehensive information and updated almost daily with tight guidelines on posting articles. Updates on upcoming dramas giving readers and downloaders on latest drama which would be release in market for upcoming season (in Japanese drama case, they release drama according to winter, fall, summer and spring).

As listed my favorite links when i surf the Net in the office. At home, i have another few links which i frequently visit such as Friendster, EPL, Utusan Malaysia, D-Addicts and few more. You could say i'm a nerd since most of my life is about Internet. Seriously, i wonder how i could survive without Internet in a day. Perhaps that statement ia exaggerating but i could die of boredom without Internet.

Who i want to tag?
Nah...i end the tag game here. :)

Quickie:
Gokusen 3 will be available in Spring 2008. Gokusen 3 Wiki Link.

I dunno how i get to this website but this growing community definitely a place for everyone. Secrets as you could understand is for you only but if you could share it anonymously, why not? It's good to have a place to write your secret anonymously and let others to help you with that. The problem with blog is when people know who you are, you will not comfortable to spill out the bean.

I really love the idea of this website. Perhaps you could give it a try. It's a growing community so please be bear if the comments are only handful. For that reason, we need to get more people there so more secrets and more comments/helps/critics.

GOD don't play dice

GOD don't play dice[1] means GOD don't gamble. this statement come to my mind when i watch a JDo title "Cupid No Itazura" or in English "Cupid's Prank". It's a midnight[2] JDo which normally focusing on sex and related stuff to it but this JDo really something. In term of acting, the actor and actress not as "kayu" as normal AV and gravure[3] idols whom always starring in midnight JDo. The storyline and emotions really running high and if it wouldn't for the nudity and softcore pornography element, this JDo really worth to watch for all.

The premise of the story is simple which around Tomo whom only have 7 times chance to experience ejaculation in his life. he suffered from Rainbow Ball disease which only happened to 1 over 1 million people. the story climb up when Tomo meet Reiko whom he love from high school. intervene by Asami's appearance, it become triangle love.

Tomo love Reiko
Asami love Tomo

Asami is the one who discover regarding Tomo's illness and for that reason, she become sympathy with Tomo. Asami hurt so much in her relationship with a married guy seeks salvation from Tomo while Tomo couldn't have the guts to tell Reiko regarding his illness consult Asami on that matter. Desperate to lose his virginity, Tomo tried to rape Reiko.

The storyline rather twisted and i couldn't help to feel sorry for Asami and Tomo. Both seeking salvations for love and being a virgin in his early 20's really put the pressure to Tomo. Asami wrongly involved with the married guy feeling bad about herself. both seeking true love and would want to live happily ever after but it seems normal relationship and normal life just not for them.

I just watch until episode 3 but i will continue regarding this JDo cause i really feel heavily invested (emotionally) into this JDo. This JDo really touching my emotion about love.

Sometimes you just wondering what could be wrong for people who seeking simple life. tomo just want to be loved, so does asami. but with his disease and her double-cross relationship couldn't make those 2 people to be happy. both desperate for happiness yet happiness seems impossible. you couldn't help to notice that asami really just want to be happy yet her relationship make her look like a bitch who snatch other people husband. i really feel sorry for her. not to mention for tomo cause the illness really cause a great deal of pressure to him.

review on this JDo continue when i finish watching this dorama.

Notes:
[1] it's a common jargon for gamblers that "playing dice" is equally a popular term for gambling. as a matter of fact, playing dice is the most famous type of gambling game ever. simplest explanation because cards exist later than dice and dice accompanied early gambling game.

[2] Midnight JDo normally contains sexually explicit contents which suitable for viewer whom could really digest that kind of stuff. It contains softcore pornography elements including front and back nudity but not focusing on groin area.

[3] Gravure idols is a term known for bikini model in Japan.

Jasmine Tea & Kopitiam

for those who know me well, i'm a tea lover. means, i prefer to drink tea instead of coffee. to justify that, i drink almost all kind of tea. jasmine tea, green tea, black tea, earl grey, ice lemon tea, teh o ais limau, peach tea, teh kekwa (crysenthimume - fuck it, i can't spell it anyway) and lots of others tea.

reason for me to drink tea because at home, mom always bancuh tea instead of coffee. the first time i really drink coffee was when i'm in form 3. before that, i will avoid coffee like crazy.

talking about tea, i found a place where perhaps the best jasmine tea being served. it's in Bangi Kopitiam. The name might deceive you about the location while the real location of that store actually in Wangsa Maju. Just opposite JJ Wangsa Maju, uphill opposite new mosque (yurp, in the shoplot area). It's good to taste good cold tea with jasmine smell to it. Syuk don't like it but i'm so in love with the tea.

Also hanging out with Munir, Kaped and Anon at Old Town Kopitiam in Jalan Yap Kwan Seng (KLCC station for LRT and you need to walk around 5-10 minutes to reach there) which located just in front of Phileo Megan Avenue II. Nice interior design, nice food, affordable price and awesome companions. I order Hazelnut White Coffee which was ok for me (though i'm not too keen in coffee), some curry rice and roti bakar. Really nice treat. The roti bakar really ass kick!

Anyway, Kopitiam (given it Old Town or Bangi) provide a nice place for you to hanging out with friends (and loved one) while enjoying long conversation. For coffee junkies, Kopitiam is an affordable place for you instead of going to San Francisco, Starbuck or Coffee Bean just to replenish your caffiene level. A cup of hazelnut coffee just cost me around RM 3.00+ and i'm quite take a liking to the caffiene beverage.
