12.01

By Delrondu | Rambles

Once again, I was forced to listen to the radio as I was driving a car without a cd player. And once again, I caught a deejay that hardly made any sense that I’m feeling compelled to rant about it here. She was giving a quiz, or so she thought. The question was “what time

Revelation Revalued

By Delrondu | Info

Speaking to a cousin who studies Buddhism (and I mean really studies), I found out that what I had learned in my previous post titled Revelation were all rubbish.

Slight

By Delrondu | Confession

War

By Delrondu | Cinema

Worst Jet Li Hollywood-movie to date. The dialogues are corny and the action is way below par. None of the actors were able to make this work. Rating: 2 / 10 (Full review at silverscreen.thinkbrunei.com)
