Update on LSW game and Macbook

So....
I did end up finding the Video settings and I changed the resolution and fiddled with the color etc. etc...

WOW... The graphics are kinda nice!!!!

It's really nice to look at! ME is a happier person. dot.dot.dot.

But, annoying news. My macbook "delete" button has decided to become SQUEAKY at this point in its life, and its extremetly irritating.
After reading up about it on GOOGLE, I've decided to try to put a lid on the anxiety (which, as usual, is a very difficult thing to do) and wait a few days before taking an action. E.g. calling AppleCare or Calling/Talking to a Representative at an Apple Store in Toronto - which is very not near me.

Any suggestions?

Initial feedback re: Lego Star Wars II for Mac

WOW ... I am SO disappointed in the graphics and the resolution and the way things look, and I've barely begun to play!!!

I thought that the quality I should be getting on my mac would be better than on an old tv, but, I guess I've been proven wrong.

And I was thinking, because it IS Lego, you'd expect it to at least have defined straight lines, but Nooooo, totally not defined stright li es!! Very choppy!!

Sight oh well. I do hope that it's just me and that I have set the graphics settings right. And, I do hope I can blog about how relieved I am at this initial reaction to the game.

I will keep my fingers crossed.

Making a new shelf

I think I should make a shelf for all my Star Wars products ^^
It can be my new Star Wars collection thing.

Wow.. look at me talk. I can't beleive I'm so all over Star Wars right now. Even my blogging has been so much more frequent. And, I've even started to use taglines (something I've not done before)!!




Yes, I'll get to those Hong Kong photos soon, I promise!

Guess what I got at YORKDALE?!?!

YOU BETCHA!!!!!

AND a MIGHT MOUSE!!!!!

(for the Lego Star Wars II game, and half of my mighty mouse :P)

and of course, pictures, pictures.

This is my game:


And here's my mouse:

Reaction to Star Wars III: the Revenge of the Sith

WARNING: DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVEN'T WATCHED THE MOVIE. SPOILERS IN BLOG ENTRY!!!

So, you have been warned, and you still insist on reading!

Don't say that I didn't warn you!!! It'll spoil your movie watching!!!

Seriously, you really want to read this?!?

fine.

Yes, you guessed it - it's 3 in the morning and I just finsiehd watching the Movie.

Crazy - a few things are: 1) the fact that i'm still up so late when I know I need to be up early tomorrow morning 2) the movie itself.

It was hideous to see all the Jedi killed by their own men. I mean, it would totally suck to be me if I were the lady Jedi (the blue one who totally got murdered in the woods).

Ohhhhhh, THAT'S why Darth Vader needs his breathing mask, and why's he's so dang UGLY!!

And, the confusiong betwen 'Good' and 'Evil'. I think Lucas did a really good job in triggering thoughts, but in a subtle (but not really) way. Good way of covering one's ass i would say! Mention nothing about religion, but have the entire movie about it (or not)!

seems like it's all about...

STAR WARS today!!!

This morning, i woke up to a Star Wars V: the Empire Strickes Back gift on my desk. And, according to my mom, the 'cutest' person in the family gave it to me!! And, that'll be my brother!! He gave me a "Boba Fett & Han Solo" watch. Then early afternoon, I watched Star Wars III: the Revenge of the Sith (well, the first 50mins of it). And then later that afternoon, I received another Star Wars gift - a Transformer --> Anakin Skywalker Fighter Plane. It's a fighter plane that transfroms into a robot like figure (that doesn't appear in Star Wars). And, it also comes with a little Anakin Skywalker figure. And really, it's tiny! Thanks Chris!!!! I really did feel like a kid!!!

And, of course, I cannot fail to mention that during the afternoon, we (Janice, Joyce, Chris, Yogesh, my brother and I) played Rock Band, and Apples to Apples! It was a LOT of fun!!! 

Thanks for coming over, even though you must have been DEAD tired. And, you must have been thinking -- i want to watch TIger Woods!

And, i also watched Kung Fu Panda tonight with Chris, my brother and Yogesh. And, it was GOOD!! It was really very entertaining! Jack Black is hilarious! 

I've watched three movies over the past few months: Iron Man, Indiana Jones 4 and Kung Fu Panda. I'd rank them Kung Fu Panda, Iron Man, Indy. And, that of course, if totally from my point of view. And, because I'm feeling happy/giddy/laughy from watching Kung Fu Panda.

But, Iron Man was good too - a different kind of good. It's more serious, and not 'comical', but still "wow" good. I'd reccommend both Kung Fu Panda and Iron Man.

Movies that i'm looking forward to watch in the theatres this summer:

• The Dark Knight
• Star Wars: the Clone Wars

And there are some others that i'd like to watch, maybe not on the Internet :p

another star wars post

So, I just finished watching Star Wars II: Attack of the Clones with Chris, and by just, i mean a few hours ago :p

The movie, was GOOD!ANd boy, is George Lucas good/famous/a mil-billlionaire or what?!?!?


Can't wait to watch Star Wars III: The Return of the Sith!

And what?!?!? There's a Star Wars animationcoming out in August?!? YUP, there is!!
it's called - Star Wars: the Clone Wars totally just click on the link!!

But, i gotta admit, after watching the trailer, I still like the 'people' version better.


And, while i'm still on the Star Wars topic, i want to get a game for my Mac, and guess what's on my mind? YOU GOT IT!!! STAR WARS!!! But, probably the Lego version. It's 'cuter', what can i say? :P


and, Aw MAN... i wish i had the Wii!!
Then, i could play this:

star wars fans

hi there!!

My trip to Hong Kong has given me the chance to explore Star Wars collections.
More specifically: LEGO STAR WARS

Now, there's something that even my eyes are drooling over:


This image - Imperial Star Destroyer.
And, I don't know how to put an image in html, but if you can enlighten me, please do!

edit: thank you prolific programmer
here's the image!


p.s. there are 6 lego-men included in this box, more importantly - DARTH VADER is one of them. Well, of course it's nice to have the five hang out on the ship too.

And, yes.. i'm wondering to myself.. when have I become such an avid Star WWars fan?!?
