It’s Doujima once more and it’s on this weekend of 25th to 26th April at Scape!
The event will also bring the launch of Extravaganza 2015, an annual regional art competition jointly organized by CDS, NUS Comics and Animation Society (NUSCAS) and NTU Visual Arts Society (NTUVAS).
To get to Scape, the nearest mrt station would be Somerset.
Life is Strange. And I mean Life is Strange the game. It’s a 5 episode game and right now at the time of the post only the first and second episode is out. 2 episodes and then I bought an Instax camera.
Alright, I wasn’t really influenced by the game to buy the camera but it was in my list of things I wanted to get for myself/work because I kept borrowing Instaxes from others. Life is Strange just merely made me go “Yes. I’m going to get this now”.
How is it so far? It’s freaking cinematic and the sound track makes it as if you’re in a movie as you play as Max Caulfield.
Basically, you can rewind time and since this is a Squeenix (Square Enix as others might call it) and Dontnod game, there’s nosebleeds and headaches and me going “NOOOoooo!”.
It’s a mystery we’re all trying to figure out and it’s just two episodes now. One episode can just last around a few hours or an afternoon so it’s really like watching an episode of some drama but with cinematic features and interactivity.
You might like the background music too because it’s what makes the whole thing complete. Â
I went onboard the RSS Endurance because of SAF50@Vivo and mostly because I won tickets from the Channel News Asia morning show quiz. HOHOHOHOH. You guys. You should enter quizzes and try win tickets for stuff if you’re into them.
I know that sounds a bit duh but you’ll never know if you don’t try and see if you might win tickets to the thing you love want.
I wanted these particular set of tickets because WOOH.
Note the little corner on top? It’s got a special bit where we can ride the FCU aka Fast Craft Unit!
I like speedy things, you see.
Mostly, to be on them.*
Since I had tickets we went in quickly past the other line since there was a queue for general public too. Anyway, it’s so exciting to be on a ship like this.
Harry Potter night was held on the afternoon at Orchard Library on the 7th Feb since well, a lot of us could only make it in the afternoon of a weekend.
Nifty stickers were had and stuff from the library too!
After the little soiree hosted by Midnight the Magnificent (her nick on Nanowrimo), I led my friends to Orchard Midpoint for J Town!
That’s Jakarta town, not Japan town. Anyway, I got the little office lady, Fuchico from Tokyu Hands. I might want to get more of her.
And it’s the second last episode of pedestrian night at Orchard road apparently.
If you want to catch pedestrian night, looks like next month is the last installment of it. That’s the first Saturday of the month and it starts at 6.30pm.
I don’t know what’s March programme is but it just is nice to walk down that road when usually it’s just traffic?
Mind you, it IS a hassle when you realize there’s traffic divergence and all but I think we’ve learned about it by now?
Well. I went to Gardens by the Bay and yeah. That’s it really, I don’t know what to say.
It’s a garden? Hahah, I went to both the flower dome and the cloud forest.
If you’re a resident of Singapore, you get a discount.
You know how to sing it. Do you wanna make a short fiiiiilm? It doesn’t have to be a short film…
Anyway, I was invited to ciNE65‘s The Prologue, aka their launch of their commissioned films and the whole intro about season three for submissions to their competition!
This season’s theme is “Believing • Home”.
Sunday was my last run of the year. I took the 10 km Standard Chartered Marathon Singapore route. It was interesting and I passed by R2D2, C3P0 and some Star Wars characters running/walking for charity??
Anyway, I had to run fast because I had to go home by 10am.
Just so I could join the Gotham cosplay competition at Takashimaya when the registration started at around 12pm.
Yes. I ran in the morning, rushed home and went to my last cosplay competition of the year.
That was ridiculous BUT YEAHHH I DID IT.
And that’s why this post is short because, I freaking ran 10 km and then went to a cosplay competition.
Longer posts for next episode indeed!
This weekend was woah. By the way, we still have nanowrimo write-ins for one more session at Orchard Library.
The rest will be at the Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf at Raffles Place. Info is on the Singapore forums for Nanowrimo anyway.
What you basically do is just write in.
That’s why it is called write in. You write in there, yes. That’s it.
You still have time if you want to join Nanowrimo, it’s not even the last week of November so you can still catch up and write!
The date: 25 October 2014
Starts at 4pm
Location: Possibility Room (5th floor) at National Library
Dresscode: True to Yourself
I know it’s on the same day as Games Start and a lot of other events too but ehh oh well. Ours start at 4pm so there’s mucho time to go to the others too! (I’m going to Games Start on the Sunday.)
How to get to the Possibility room? Here’s a video:
And here’s the poster! Since you’re reading this, that’s neat. I didn’t state it on the rsvp there and all but I shall wear a dragon suit or something. That’s the exclusive info for being my reader (?!).
Don’t be shy. Or well, you can be shy too but just come to the party.
Yes, it’s a teaser post or at least a very short one. Sunday was the Tampines Run which I just ran around Bedok Reservoir pretty quickly (relatively quickly) so I could go home and prepare for STGCC!
Since I posted my ‘loot’ from my run, this is my LOOT from the Singapore Toys Games Comic Convention. More details in my main post for STGCC! In the week or so. Heh, I still have interviews I did during ICDS.
The cosplay/comic season has begun fully.
