True Legend (5/10)

By Delrondu | Cinema

A very old fashioned and traditional storyline of how a kung fu master loses to an opponent, suffers a great loss, disappears from society, finds an even stronger master and trains in a cave, then comes back and finish said opponent. Yuen Woo Ping hasn’t sat in the director’s chair for many years now. Whether

How To Sync Contacts From Outlook To Nexus One?

By Delrondu | Info, Quote, Tech

I had to google a few times to find out stuff and one thing that’s very useful was transferring Microsoft Outlook’s contacts into the phone because they wouldn’t sync with each other. And this method isn’t exactly transferring from Outlook into the Nexus One but it’s close enough, and more importantly it works. Below is

Nexus One!

By Delrondu | Info, Tech

I got an email from QQestore.com three days ago (Chinese New Year Eve) and I couldn’t help but notice that the Nexus One has dropped in price yet again, becoming $1,038.00. Clicking on it and being enticed by it yet again, I finally thought; screw it, I’m getting it today with 0%. Just before I

A Romantic CNY

By Delrondu | Rambles

Welcome to a romantic Chinese New Year celebration, where the colour red becomes a double entendre in a society with modest implementations and strict values

An Education (8/10)

By Delrondu | Cinema

I never liked Peter Sarsgaard. But finally, I see what he’s worth. He lost his accent a few times but in the scheme of all things, this was a great story with a great cast. I’m not sure about how Sarsgaard and Carey Mulligan’s characters met, seemed quite impossible in real life. Even more so

Cirque du Freak: The Vampire’s Assistant (6/10)

By Delrondu | Cinema

What’s most freaky were’nt the freaks, but how Chris Massoglia has such an uncanny resemblance to Ashton Kutcher. From his hair down to the way he talks, I couldn’t help but feel I was looking at a younger Kutcher; minus the charisma and acting chops. I enjoyed the premise and the story. I am actually

Edge Of Darkness (6/10)

By Delrondu | Cinema

I thought this suited Mel Gibson very well. It’s what he can do, it’s what he can deliver; but I would have liked to see more emotions a la Ransom even though this was literally on the edge of darkness. One thing that the movie lost me a few times was when it got too

The Looming Feeling

By Delrondu | Confession, Quote

CNY is less than a week away. And I’m so busy with work now, with a presentation looming over me and many problems to solve. I have made another mistake, but I’m learning fast. I am fearful of the steps ahead as I still have no clear direction just now. But “face the fear, and
