Well I was drinking a fermented drink similar to Yakult called Biofeel (made by Koreans). Yakult is a very successful world-wide product that is enjoyed by kids & adults that was first made in Australia! Unfortunately it is very expensive here in NZ! But they sell many of them at the 7 eleven stores in Asia.
Anyway, I did research on it because I wanted to know why they do not sell in bottles larger than the ones presented here. I remembered that I heard from somewhere that it has a type of bacteria too & wondered why it plays an important part of the bottle being so small?
Flavours : original, grape, orange & green apple
I went to the original website http://www.yakult.com.au/index.html
This states: Yakult Australia Pty. Ltd. commenced production on 22 January 1994. Australia was the first English speaking country chosen to launch Yakult due to its close proximity to Asia. Another reason was Australia’s increasing interest in maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Yakult contains beneficial bacterium called Lactobacillus casei Shirota strain. Each one of us has around 100 trillion bacteria in our intestines. Some of these are beneficial and some are potentially harmful. To work efficiently our digestive system needs a healthy balance where the number of beneficial bacteria outnumber those that are potentially harmful. The unique beneficial bacteria in Yakult are strong enough to survive the journey through the stomach’s gastric juices to reach the small intestine alive, where they help maintain an ideal balance of beneficial bacteria. Each 65ml bottle contains hundreds of millions of these highly acid resistant bacteria, which are exclusive to Yakult.
So that is the reason why Yakult is contained in small bottles. Plus people who have diabetes or are lactose-intolerant can still enjoy & reap the benefits of yakult. Go to the FAQ's section to read about it!! This is fantastic stuff! Although I do want to drink more than those tiny bottles ahahah its so tasty!
However, it is advised that one bottle a day should be good for you. They said that if you drink another, it should be fine as well. But I wouldn't do that....oh wait I drank 4 bottles yesterday???!!!!
Oops.
My friend told me about a new Taiwan drama with the actress Hebe, also known to be in an all-girls band S.H.E. She plays the character Yi Sheng Xue 伊勝雪. Starring alongside with Mike He (賀軍翔) as Shen Ruo He 沈若赫 & Lee Wei (李威)as Jin Zi Cong 金子聰, the show is called Bull fighting (鬥牛 · 要不要). This is a basketball show.... Anyway, this drama was released just last year & it is like the typical story of 2 guys & a girl. Sheng Xue (Hebe) is actually quite terrible at basket ball haha.
Wikipedia: In this Drama Yi Sheng Xue plays a gang leader's daughter, and Shen Ruo He plays a gangster. Both of the two attend different schools, which street basketball ball games take place on the court between the two. Jin Zi Cong plays one of the gangsters that are assigned to keep an eye out for Yi Sheng Xue, Both Zi Cong and Ruo get quite close to Sheng Xue, and their history is slowly revealed as a romantic(and very interesting) story unfolds.

Twins Effect
Well I couldn't sleep this morning since 1-4am because I did watch a Chinese-made vampire movie yesterday...however I do not think it is that scary. Since I am a softie at heart, I can't help it but hide under my covers haha.
Just copied it from Wikipedia:
Anyway, prior to that very very early morning wake up call today, I scratched myself upon something that I do not know of because I was pretty tired & I was trying to sleep in the afternoon yesterday! So anyway, before I went to bed at 3.40am I had to take a pillow, put it in a plastic bag & stuff it underneath my sheets so that the spring won't poke me! Oh I had back pain in the morning because of the uncomfortable elevation ahaha!
Anyway, made french toast today with my younger brothers & it didn't go very well as planned because the bread was in the freezer & we had to microwave it to soften it so that the egg can be soaked up. IT was TOO SOFT AFTER IT was MICROWAVED! So it soaked up quite a lot of egg on one side & the other has nothing....plus it was funny when we kept encountering mishaps & helping each other to realise how it is done properly. Lots of laughs!
Soon after lunch, we went to tidy up all the lego in the display cabinet or those that needed dismantling. Cornelius went crazy & delusional trying to sort everything out & he started chucking stuff. So did we because we were lazy haha & can't be bothered sorting it out. Corn told me to make a spaceship. I do not play with lego although I do like the designs....so I just came up with something random...although Corn tried to dismantle a part of it thinking that the ship can spill into 2...I am not that innovative with lego! haha
Radar at the back...boosters below...red tiles are the lights...yellow missile weaponry plus another energyy blaster on the left hand side....its ok...wouldn't consider it that clever. Eusebius designed this really good person with lego but I didn't take a picture of it...Anyway, I tried attacking him with my ship. I found it very fun haha!
Hehe the other day Mat came over to my place & brought the Simpson's movie although I found it somewhat strange that they had a story plot about saving the world. It was a little bit far from their own signature. Anyway, we wanted to go shoot some hoops at a primary school but no hoops...so decided to walk to my old old old primary school, my first ever in NZ. To our surprise, we walked past Leann!! Hahaha funny gal had to babysit her neighbour's kids! Didn't manage to get photos of my primary!!! Forgot! I am so forgetful.
To all the high schoolers & my musical friends out there, once you start school, I hope that you will make a greater impact in your school life than you did last year & study hard, work hard & then play hard! HAHA
Just copied it from Wikipedia:
The Twins Effect (traditional Chinese: 千機變) is a Hong Kong movie that was released in Hong Kong on June 23, 2003. [1]
![[1]](http://images.countingdown.com/images/countdowns/movies/2694323/2694323_main.jpg){kind=link}
The movie was derived from the famous Cantopop duo, Twins, starring both Gillian Chung and Charlene Choi, co-starring actors Edison Chen and Ekin Cheng with a special guest appearance by Jackie Chan.
The Twins Effect gained a lot of popularity mainly from Twins fans, and was then released the DVD in the United States, renamed The Vampire Effect. The Vampire Effect is edited by about 20 minutes.
The Twins Effect was the 2003 highest box-office Hong Kong-made movie in Hong Kong itself.
If you are a fan of Edison or the Twins..it is good to check it out. At first the story seems to be really serious in the beginning but it somewhat fan out into a comedy & a good story plot. However, you might think it is more of a joke. Well I did, yet I still got scared so pay no attention to that remark that I had just mentioned.

Breath of Fire 2 done
Finished Breath of Fire 2 & I think there is number 3 on Playstation 1? Not sure...I will check. This game is far more tedious than number 1 & not to mention very very hard! The GBA version is apparently easier than the old Super Nintendo...ok? Nevertheless it took me a while to finish because you cannot miss anything or you are dead...
Overall, the story is good & it unfolds but I am sorry...the Americans did not do a good job of translating it. The fighting is fair...but you need to train up a lot. Plus, each character have unique uses for obstacles in the game so its quite annoying to supervise them if you did not train them. After all, you can only take 4 characters including yourself out of 8.
Demon shown at the beginning of the game. Even though this character looks the same compared to the 1st game, this is actually around 4-5 generations after the 1st game.
You can even fish & catch animals for ingredients to make better items! But you have to do catch it with skill haha You can transport by whale, bird & town-ship! That happens in order as you advance in the game...
There is actually a Church city! Every house has a statue of God (or so it seems...) whereas that is not the God I am talking about haha & the chapel is guarded by a robot!
B=my older brother...I couldn't change the name so I am stuck with B! That is my statistics.
I think they are the creators of the game because there are no characters like them in the game
THE END! Though I am not so sure....need to find out!!! Time for my next game.....haha

Secret
Tammy & I went to Danya's house to watch a movie called Secret (不能说的秘密) although the more accurate mandarin translation would be "the Secret that can't be told". Oh & what an extraordinary movie it is!! It is made up of all sorts of elements! Psychological, romance, comedy & mystery put into a whole movie. However, it focuses more on the story raveling among the 2 main characters. It has great influence on music by the way. This movie is solely directed & acted by Jay Chou. Watch it if you are a Jay Chou fan or simply a classical fan!
This story focuses on Ye Xiang Lun (葉湘倫) who is a new student highly involved in music & is an exceptional pianist. He stumbled across a girl Xiao Yu (小雨). Both of them fell in love with each other. Xiang Lun heard a melody played by Xiao Yu on the piano & is curious. Xiao Yu then told him it is a secret. When Xiao Yu stumbled upon Xiang Lun being kissed by another girl, she became very upset & disappeared.
After 5 months, Xiang Lun played a song dedicated to her at the graduation ceremony (The Swan by Smetana). Then, Xiao Yu appeared again to watch him perform. She disappeared yet again & there seemed to be no trace of her. Xiang Lun had to uncover what the secret of hers is and during each event, the story unfolds linking up why people thinks all of a sudden that Xiang Lun went crazy.....up to you to go get it & watch it!
Note: Noticed the ledger lines where the Chinese characters sit on? And the treble clef of the 'S'?
If you are a light hearted person, do not watch this movie by yourself or in the dark. Hehe I know I am scared thinking about it. But this is a good good movie! Go watch it! Music is awesome too.

Breath of Fire done!
I have completed yet another game that took quite a bit of my time!!! Not to mention tedious!! You need to have a good memory of this game or play it continuously or else you cannot finish it on your own & depend on the "help file" for it. OH I had to refer to it multiple times!!! Unlike Lunar Legend haha enough chit chat....photos out!
Rudra, the dragon transformation of the main character, Agni, the most powerful dragon transformation of the main character aka ME!!
Ya ya....2nd to last boss!! Wasn't that hard to defeat it! You needed a dragon song to reduce its life greatly! Again....needed the help files for it! From the bottom left....Rudra transformation, Nina a bird woman, Bleu a sleeping sorceress you get to awake, & that is Karn but is in an odd shape. He fused with an ox, a fish & a wolf! How odd!!
Nina can transform into a bird for transportation purpose, with other birds
Ending of the game!! Walking into the sunset with a memory of my sister whom you don't know not until towards the end of the game but you started off the game wondering who she is!
yes going on to number 2!
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!! All the best for this year! May God bless you & may you walk in His path to righteousness whether you have to go through tough decisions or enjoying the simple things in life. Always remember the Father THROUGH THICK & THIN BECAUSE HE STICKS BY EVERYTHING.
& Thank you Daddy for helping me to clean my room!!! It was funny!!! Are you sure mum bought the right one? This is not the right "solution"!
