A perfect Sunday!

It has been a good day. Woke up at about 7:30 am. Chatted with my friends on Skype while playing Battlefield 3 with Eric (he is in Norway). I am not a gaming addict but I do enjoy a good game, especially a good multiplayer game... and multiplayer games do not get much better than the Battlefield series. Battlefield 3 is just amazing. Massive maps. 2 big teams facing off against each other with Assault Infantry, Snipers, Support Infantry, Engineers, Tanks, Humvees, Helicopters, Boats and Fighter Jets. In Battlefield: Bad Company 2, I used to be rather good at playing as a sniper.. sitting atop a large building or hiding in a bush and picking off players of the opposing team from a distance or mortar striking bulidings. However, in Battlefield 3 the maps are quite a bit bigger... massively so in some cases. Being a sniper is not so easy in this game. Fun but bloody challenging. So I usually will play as support, with a large, scoped light machine gun mowing down enemies and running up to tanks, planting C4 charges and running like hell before triggering (I sometimes even make it to a safe distance before I detonate them, but rarely) and blowing them to kingdom come. All in all a mighty fine game.

This evening I cooked Sweet and Sour Chicken. I also cooked a side of Char Siu just so I could add a photo to my cooking blog. You can also find the recipe for Cantonese Sweet and Sour Chicken on my cooking blog, Binky Cuisine, under the Malaysian Cuisine section.

Later tonight I will be watching one of my favourite shows ever! Misfits Season 3 will be starting at 10pm on E4. Been far too long a wait!! If you are unfamiliar with Misfits then SORT IT OUT! It is an awesome British show about 5 young offenders who get caught in a strange storm during their community service and develop superpowers. It is funny and rather exciting.

Off to book my tickets for Malaysia now. Will be out there in December for my friend's wedding. Seriously can't wait to see my friends and family out there!! Been far too long since I was last there.
