Here's a brief preview on Final Fantasy VII - Advent Children

Set two years after the events of Final Fantasy VII, Cloud now leads a solitary life traveling the Planet as a transporter. The office of Strife Delivery Service is located in 7th Heaven, which also functions as an orphanage for children stricken with Geostigma.

Three new enemies make an appearance in Advent Children. Kadaj, their leader, is in his teens, while Yazoo and Loz are known to be in their twenties. In them, Cloud sees shadows of FFVII's fallen hero, Sephiroth. The three are after "Mother" and refer to Cloud as their "Brother". Having obtained Jenova's head, their purpose appears to be to start another Reunion. Vincent suspects that with Jenova's cells, they may even be able to create another Sephiroth.

A non-contagious disease known as Geostigma is spreading across the Planet, with Kadaj claiming that it is due to Jenova's cells working hard in the Lifestream. Children tend to show signs of Geostigma first, though adults are susceptible to the disease as well. Symptoms of Geostigma include mental weakness, pain and even death. Cloud is known to suffer from this disease though he hides his affected arm beneath his sleeve. He is heard coughing and clutching his arm in some parts of the trailers. Victims bandage affected regions and it was Cloud's used bandage, which Marlene found in the Church, that gave away his condition.

According to the creators, the Church will feature prominently in the movie. Besides being the place Cloud calls home, it is also the stage for the fight between Tifa and Loz. Despite her valiant attempts, Tifa is ultimately defeated and Loz makes off with Marlene and the rest of the children. Cloud arrives late and brings the barely conscious Tifa back to 7th Heaven.

Reno and Rude arrive at 7th Heaven, Cloud having been hired by Rufus to be his "bodyguard" from the three new foes. The ShinRa President suffers from Geostigma as well and is wheelchair-bound. Rufus has been reconstructing Midgar and searching for any traces of influence that Sephiroth might have left on the Planet, to which he has found none. He now resides at the Healin Lodge, also known as the Geostigma Sanatorium. The Turks report that the three silver-haired youths have brought the children to their headquarters, the City of the Ancients.

Cloud still carries emotional scars from the last time we saw him. Weighed down by memories of loved ones he has lost and his physical condition, he now comes across as devoid of hope. Ever the reluctant hero, it takes much persuasion from Tifa after the children are captured for Cloud to decide to go after them. Perhaps it is only during his dream-like encounter with Aerith on the way to the City of the Ancients that he finally makes some progress. The two meet back-to-back in the flower field, beneath a pure white sky. Cloud struggles to voice his desire to seek forgiveness, to which Aerith says that she already has forgiven him. Consoled but still unconvinced, Cloud sets out on his path of redemption.

Kadaj speaks to the children by the shore of the lake in the City of the Ancients, rallying them to join forces with him against the Planet. They ambush Cloud and the children form a circle around him, preventing his escape. Kadaj calls Cloud a traitor and is about to execute him when Vincent swoops down and brings Cloud to safety. Marlene escapes and rejoins Cloud and Vincent in the woods. They then chase the silver-haired youths and the children back to Midgar.

Midgar is in chaos when they return. Kadaj has unleashed a swarm of Shadowcreepers which attack the townspeople while Cid, Barret, Vincent, Yuffie and Red XIII fight them off. Tifa is shown shielding Denzel, one of the orphans under her charge. Reno and Rude battle Yazoo and Loz respectively. Kadaj is seen looking down from a damaged building with Rufus, during which he summons Bahamut Sin. Cloud then practically flies towards the dragon, kamikaze-style, as it prepares to launch an attack on the city.

It should be noted that Tifa, Cid, Yuffie, Red XIII and Marlene have each been seen carrying a ribbon. Cloud, too, has been spotted with one tied around his left arm during what appears to be a flashback. Here, his arm is not covered by a sleeve, presumably before he contracted Geostigma, and he is seen fingering the ribbon in the rain. Whether the ribbons are simply a gesture of friendship or even a sign of mourning remains uncertain.

The scene then shifts to Cloud scaling up the side of a building with a sword in each hand while explosions go off. As the buildings collapse around him, he looks up and we see Sephiroth in all his former glory. The line, "I won’t remain just a memory." is heard. From out of the debris, sword drawn, a familiar face is seen. None other than Sephiroth has returned.

Today, i want to blog about "Final Fantasy VII - Advent Children", a movie which i have watched last few days. What's so nice about this movie?

You guys might not know that Final Fantasy VII - Advent Children is the sequence to the game Final Fantasy VII which came out in 1997. Final Fantasy VII has a good gameplay, a nice storyline and i still remember every details that i played. It was quite a popular game at that time. Everyone was thinking that there will be an expansion to this game Final Fantasy VII. But instead of a game, it produce a new storyline in a movie.

Two words to describe this movie, Fantastic and touching. The grahpics and characters, all are so beautiful.

Fantastic is because the fightings between characters and a great storyline. I like especially the one on Tifa and Loz. Lastly will be the big battle between Cloud and Sephiroth.

Touching is because the everlasting love between Cloud and Aeris and the love triangle of Cloud, Aeris and Tifa.[For your information, Aeris is already dead in the game Final Fantasy VII. She reappear in Final Fantasy VII - Advent Children as a spirit.]

Let me introduce to you some of the characters.

[Thanks to alex who took these pictures with his digital camera. Lol]

Well, the last part of the show is extreme touching. Cloud always blame himself for not be able to save Aeris and let her die. Thus, Cloud lives in a solitary life. But Aeris didn't blame him. Instead, she's always there for him. Her spirit lives around him and she even cured the illness in him. Cloud doesn't feel sad anymore because he's not alone fighting the battle. [Well, i wonder what Tifa will be thinking.]

Here's the last conversation between them.

Aeris: "You're okay now, right?"
Cloud: "Yeah, I'm..."
Cloud: "...not alone."


Love is the feeling you get when someone truely deeply cares for you. A trust build between each other and will not drift away even one has died. Both of them feels it.

First time i post a MTV from WKRZ 91.3. I like this particular music. =D Anyway, ISNS today so so la. Hope can do well.


Angel City - Sunrise

Talk to me, what are you doing?
What are you thinking right now?
Set me free I'm just a prisoner to you
And time goes by I'm still waiting forever
And a day but, I thought I saw you yesterday
I thought those words I heard you say

(Chorus)
When I look at the sunrise, sunlight,
Melts my fears away
When your living this feeling
Don't ever let it go,
When I'm under at the
Starlight it feels right
The thought is on my mind
I'll set you free, ill set you free

Look at me,
What are you thinking?
Tell me what your seeing
Let me go,
If there's nothing you believe
And time goes by I'm still waiting
Forever and a day but,
I thought I saw you yesterday
I thought those words I heard you say

Exams is around the corner. Let me blog some ghost stories to have some entertainment during this stressed week.


REAL-LIFE STRANGE ENCOUNTER IN S'PORE xxx HOSPITAL

There was this case in this hospital's Intensive Care ward where patients always died in the same bed and on Friday mornings regardless of their age, gender, medical history or medical conditions.

This puzzled the doctors and some even thought that it had to do with the supernatural. Why the death at that same bed on Fridays? So the doctors decide to go down to that particular ward to investigate the cause of the incidents....

Come Friday morning, everyone at the hospital ward nervously waited for the terrible phenomenon to occur again.

The new = unknowing patient laid there.....

Some doctors holding wooden crosses, prayer books and other holy objects to ward off evils......... waiting....the patient was = resting still. then 8am...... 8:30am........

Just before the 'cursed' time...... the door to the ward swung open......


Scroll Down






























































































Then Ah Soh, the part-time Friday cleaner, comes in and unplugs the life support system so that she can use the vacuum cleaner.

This is only a joke - keep smiling :)

Singapore is acclaimed to have world-class hospital facilities and medical research labs. So don't worry.

Ministry of Sound, Singapore


The Ministry of Sound in Singapore will be the biggest MoS establishment worldwide when its doors open in the newly transformed Clarke Quay. Spanning across some 40,000 square feet, this superclub is designed with avant-grade audio, visual and effect systems.

Meaning? A cutting edge clubbing experience designed with only one thing in mind - to satiate the aural and visual senses of the discerning clubber.

It also promises to be a truly global DJ platform as it will import the creme a la creme of the world's dance industry talents. Expect them to deliver eclentic playlists of beats and grooves in the signature style of Ministry of Sound clubs across the globe.

Also, genre-specific rooms will be themed to deliver the best dance music to suit every preference: progressive house, funky breaks, electronic, hip-hop/RnB, disco and soulful house. All will blast from walled-and-floored hidden speakers as part of the first-of-its-kind multi-million-dollar sound system used in Singapore.

Blown away yet?

Don' be.

Its just the beginning...




Woohoo, i'm always a fan of Ministry of Sound music. Now the famous club from London is setting up its branches of MoS in Singapore. Looking forward for its opening at the end of 2005. i guess MoS will be the biggest clubbing place Singapore ever had as it takes up half of 80,000 square feet The Cannery of Clarke Quay. Cool, should it out soon. Here's another news on MoS.

Life is not as simple as what we thought to be. Just like a person. It's not as pure and innocent as what i thought to be. The more you try to find out, the more complicating it is. I didn't expect the information i got is so scary and complicated. Its totally not under my imagination.

Well, can i say i'm very disappointed? Or can i say i'm very astonished? I guess i'll say i'm very astonished. The things u have been telling me, i took it for real, but it was only lies. There's nothing i can do. But now, i have seen the REAL side of you, who you really are. I don't care whatever things you want to say or explain now because i will only believe half of it.

Its good to know such things earlier or i may regret it.


Well tomorrow MPRG project deadline, and i have not completed yet. I heard from my frens in CLS saying that they have studying week starting from monday. Don't need to come school. So good! I wonder why ICT don't have. Hmmm.

My house has been quite noisy for the past few days. Firstly, CDS [cindy, dorothy, shirley] and hengster came my house. Secondly, my brother invited his friends to come my house below BBQ. Thirdly, my sister and bro-in-law came. And my niece has been exceptionally noisy.

Well, i like my house to be noisy. Because sometimes its really boring when the house is quiet. And thats when you feel like finding some friends to go out with.

Exams is coming. Ahhh!

Okay. For all my dear readers, my blog is up again due to request of dotty and turtle if not they will keep nagging me. =x. They ask me to open it up so i did and i'm going to MIA for a few weeks due to assignments and exams is around the corner. Haha.
Anyway, today i'm going to blog a cold joke. Just told dotty and turtle about the joke. Let me tell you all what's their reaction. Dotty, she was laughing loudly. Turtle, she's laughing silently. Yea yea! finally, there's someone that will laugh over a cold joke. Read carefully. A gentle reminder, its a COLD JOKE, please wear a jacket if you are feeling cold. Here it is.

There's one polar bear living in the north pole. He's feeling very boring as always. Thus, he would always pluck his fur whenever he feels bored. He pluck and pluck till there's no more fur left. He says: "I'm feeling very COLD."

Cold ma? Anyway, thats all for the day.
