Plants vs Zombies

New Year new game!

To keep myself out of boredom (is it really boring or I am just saying it to make an excuse to do something else? lols) I downloaded Plants vs Zombies a couple of nights ago. It was my sister Chele who mentioned and got addicted with this game first. She works with Dell in the Philippines as a Tech Support (where she gets good dimes every payday:P) and right after work she plays this game all by herself! She even mentioned that she only sleeps for a few hours so she can spend time playing, hahaha!

So what’s the game all about ey?

All you need to do is to plant as many peashooters and other kinds of plants to destroy the zombies coming on your way. Of course there are different kinds of armour that you can use and it all depends on the kind of zombies you’re going to destroy. Plants vs Zombies also has different types of games to play. It has the main game, adventure, mini-games, and puzzles. The last three parts can only be played if you’ve gained enough experience from the main game, so you’d better play well to enjoy other parts of it :P

Since I only have limited time to play this (hello, I go to work from Mon-Fri and does many chores at house), I try to keep things out of my way so no one can disturb me, hahaha! I even get nervouswhen I am being attacked big time by the opponents! I can feel the blood rushing through my face when I am beaten, hahaha!

At school, my students got hooked as well, a good number of them are playing it at home and whenever they get together, they always talk about the levels and experience they gained. One rule I have given to them which I hope they’re doing is to finish all their homework first before getting down with the zombies…it’s difficult to be blamed after their addiction.

To play, download the full version using torrent. Pop Cap is selling it and I’ve been a cheeky one not to buy :P follow this link and enjoy the game ;) Cheers!

NASA to Bomb the Moon

NASA’s on full blast as they set to bomb the moon at approximately 4:30 a.m. and 4:34 a.m. PDT on Friday October 9, 2009 (and that is today :P ). NASA will also have a television coverage beginning at 3:15 a.m, so better stay tuned for the updates :)

Ice on the moon

The goal of this mission is to search for water ice on the moon . Remember they had set the Lunar  Crater Observation and Sensing Satellite or LCROSS on its adventure to the moon last June 2009.

This is going to be one big part of history again and there are many who are eagerly waiting for the time to capture this event. For all the photographers out there – prepare your zoom lens now and make sure you have your camera ready :)

BarCamp Phnom Penh is coming soon! Yehey!

I wasn’t able to join last year as I thought I don’t belong in a ‘geek’s world’ but now it’s different. Nestle gave me the link earlier and asked to register, which I did without any hesitation :D

It’s going to an exciting conference for a newcomer like me. There will be topics discussed about hacking, latest in technology and many more that will surely keep the interests of visitors. The conference will be held at Pannasastra University of Cambodia (PUC) on October 3 & 4, 2009. It is open for everybody as long as you are interested to know about the latest in communication and innovation. Bring your friends with you :D

If you are staying in Cambodia and would like to join, feel free to register here.

Chatzones

Nestle’s family is going to US very soon and of course they will miss us terribly. One way to enjoy their stay there is to have a good communication and eventually, find new friends. I found some chat zones that would be helpful for them to be familiar with places.  Ohio chat lines contains interesting topics you can join. This will be fun as there are a lot of new members in the site. This will boost their interest to keep posted on what’s happening in and out of the city.

On Windows 7

I have 3 words for Windows 7 – I love it!

It was the other night when Nestle asked me to back up my files and stop working for a while because he’d install Windows 7 in my laptop. I was too eager to change my OS because not only it has superb eye candy displays but the settings are really handy and above all of it helps you minimise your work half the time.

I am enjoying my wallpaper now because every 30 mins or so it changes to another one and the designs they have are outstanding. Something you will enjoy while busily working on your tasks. Also, you will notice a lot of enhancement from it’s predecessor Vista which was not adored by many for it’s complexities. Now all the pc’s in the house are running with Windows 7 and I assume that in just a short while, I will be able to familiarise myself with the changes :D

To read the full review, click here.

Everybody who’s used a modern operating system for more than five minutes has been met with the hassle of juggling too many windows, and Aero Peek seeks to alleviate some of that. Available with any machine capable of “fancy mode” translucent window graphics, Aero Peek lets you hover over a “show desktop” field in the right of the task bar and show the outlines of every window currently open — which usually amounts to chaos.

More helpful, however, is the ability to hover over the fly-out thumbnails that pop up from the taskbar app groupings, and isolate that specific window while all other windows are sent to outline mode. It serves as both geography lesson and a rapid navigation method, without feeling as clunky or “all-or-nothing” as previous attempts at windows management in Windows.

Whenever I think of Goths I always end imagining people with dark eyes, wearing black clothes and they normally look a bit scary because they don’t smile a lot.

But I am mistaken, I never knew that they are one of the coolest pips on earth and they are imply the same like us. Whatever they wear is just part of the ‘beliefs’ they have grown up to. Nevertheless, you will enjoy having a conversation with them. If you wish meet new people, try free gothic chat and I am sure that you will have fun talking with them :)
