Piano Squall
Stumble into this website one fine day. Discover that it is quite cool. That is if you're interested in piano and games/anime OST.
This guy, by the nickname Piano Squall, is an "Anime and Game Pianist". Yes, Squall as in THE Squall Leonhart from FF VIII. And yes, this guy apparently wears Squall's costume while he plays the piano (wondering, if that can actually boost up his piano skills).
http://www.pianosquall.com
* Note: Check out his website and watch him play in the video section. There are also piano song sheets of anime/game OST so you can try your fingers on.
But, ponder of all ponders, why Squall? After much ponder, the little mouse thought of a few “good” candidates (*ahem* tips for those who would want to imitate Piano Squall).

- Sephiroth - Evil and mean looking. Focus on playing only battle and gory songs
- Cloud Strife - hmm… Cloud playing the piano, I like that!
- Tidus - Bare chest + bermuda pants + grand piano ?!?!?
- Mog - Its fingers are too fat for the piano keys… And does it have five fingers in the first place??
- Vincent Valentine – Ohh, sexy. But can only play with his right hand (unless he drop his “claws” on his left hand)
- Zidane – cute :)
- Chocobo – err... hmm... arr... Oversized chicken playing piano... no comment

Lost Watch
My watch I lost one destined day,
The clouds suddenly seem so gray,
But wonder why, really, that day,
My heart had never been so gay?
A sudden change I felt, I sensed,
Though it does not seem to make any sense,
Like another realm I have transcend,
Or maybe, just my imagination leaking without consent.
Lord, send Your divine wisdom as aid,
So that the focus on You will never fade,
And remind me of the price You paid,
And Your will and my purpose, that I am made.
Amen.

Final Fantasy Masterpieces
Malaysian Philharmonic Orchestra should organise a performance playing solely on Final Fantasy masterpieces. And of course, mainly on FFVII soundtrack. The series have one of the best composition the little mouse had ever heard! Ok, let me rephrase. The BEST the little mouse had ever heard (and yes, she's being very very bias).
Here's one of the OST, the ever so famous FFVII Prelude.
The original (as heard in the game)
As performed in the VOICES concert
As played by someone on the piano
And...
One-Winged Angel with a rock twist as performed in the VOICES concert.

Photography + Pastries
Lesson learnt:
A sight for an eye sore may not be a taste for the... errr... mouth sore.
But then again, it certainly look pretty in pictures.

Noah's Ark
From a forwarded email:
Everything I need to know, I learned from Noah's Ark.
ONE: Don't miss the boat.
TWO: Remember that we are all in the same boat.
THREE: Plan ahead. It wasn't raining when Noah built the Ark.
FOUR: Stay fit. When you're 60 years old, someone may ask you to do something really big.
FIVE: Don't listen to critics; just get on with the job that needs to be done.
SIX: Build your future on high ground.
SEVEN: For safety's sake, travel in pairs.
EIGHT: Speed isn't always an advantage. The snails were on board with the cheetahs.
NINE: When you're stressed, float a while.
TEN: Remember, the Ark was built by amateurs; the Titanic by professionals.
ELEVEN: No matter the storm, when you are with God, there's always a rainbow waiting.

Tiramisu, dear tiramisu,
How glad I had found you,
It’s been long, and I really miss you,

Along with mellow jazz oh so profound,
And ambience that makes your romantic heart pound,
And little things that makes every moment count!
Yes, tiramisu, wonderful tiramisu,
Till we meet again, I’ll be missing you,
Hope it won’t be long till again I see you,
A taste, all shared, happily, forever come true.

Letter from Loved One
The little mouse leaped with joy! For she received a letter from her little loved one far, far away. A letter from her little beloved “daughter”. Yes, you heard that right, her “DAUGHTER”. Well, ok, not exactly her “daughter” kinda “daughter”. Little Seaklim is the little mouse’s sponsored child. Which means, Seaklim is a child whom the little mouse commits to provide monthly provision to. 50 Dil, to be precise, each month. A little price to pay for the joy of helping a child in need.

Dear little mouse,
I’m was happy to recived a letter and a sticker. I’m well. I do not attend school yet. Because I am to young. I will go to school when I am 6 years old. I enjoy to play with my friends near my house. How are you and you family? In my country the weather is hot too. Because this is the dry season. I thank you for sent me a letter and photo to me. I wish you prosperity.
Thank from: Seaklim
