haven't been blogging, getting into the routine of work.... boring is the word. can't wait for the edb guys to call me up n confirm the date i'm moving off. Now for something totally bo liao, apparently this phenomenon is caused by the way our leftie n rightie brain works,...

TRY THIS!!!

While sitting at your desk, lift your right foot off the floor and make clockwise circles. Now while doing this, draw the number "6" in the air with your right hand. Your foot will change direction and there is nothing much you can do about it.

The Crow

DEATH: Is not death if you refuse it, it is if you accept it.
So says the man who returns from the dead to hunt down those who killed him and the love of his life, not just kill, but rape, then kill and rape...
I watched the crow donkey years back in sec school if I'm not wrong, I remember really liking the show back then and I even got the OST. In fact, that was when I got introduced and hooked onto NIN. There's a haunting song called "It can't rain all the time" and there's something special in the song that sticks in your head. When the sudden interest in the crow? I picked up a copy today from the comic shop and have finished reading it in 2 sittings!
I guess some may not like the dark theme and the violence in the comic. The brutal way in which Eric (The Crow) mercilessly hunts down those responsible for his gal's killings and the way he subsequently excecutes them may be unorthodox and downright ruthless. But I guess for a man who has witnessed the rape and death of the love of his life there ain't nothing left to lose.... One can sense the humanity in eric, the way he reminises the old times he shared with shelly, can't help but feel sad... very sad.... I wonder what I would have done if I was him, walk away or go on a path of revenge? I shan't rant anymore, but for fans of the movie I seriously recommend reading the comic. IMO, it's much more moving and you get a better feel for the characters.
