Day 3 of 30 Day Blog Journal - My Favourite Television Series

Ha! This one is easy!!!

My favourite television series. But I shall give you three. (minus marks for "tajuk yang lari")

NCIS
Criminal Minds
CSI

These three series are the only series that I will diligently follow and watch on TV. If I can, e-ve-ry episode.
Not a Heroes fan, not a Desperate Housewives fan, not the Mentalist fan and among many others. Grey's Anatomy, however, is sort of in the grey area of my grey matter... (If you get this, good. My treat. Hahaha.)

I love Criminal Minds because it solves crimes based on behavior analysis and the Subject's profile. I never realize that simple things like age factor, residential area, past history, work category can be used to identify and hunt down a suspect. I like it how they can check (hack?) into any government website and do crosschecks from the databases. In this series, there is no (maybe a little) lab science activity involved at all! And yet they are able to solve their crimes. Coolness.


NCIS? To me, is a like a mix of Criminal Minds and CSI. I prefer the original version with Gibbs as the leader. Not the new one currently on air on 8TV. Abby, their lab scientist, is one cool eccentric lady with Gothic makeup, funny hairstyle and an obsession with Slurpee (their version). Their investigation is based more on crimes involving the Navy base. So you see victims in sailor's or pilot's uniform. Oh oh, there's also the coroner known as Ducky. He likes to speak to himself and the corpse. What to do kan, in the mortuary alone with lifeless corpses for company. But have you heard, "Dead men tell no tales?".... Hahaha!

Gibbs..!!! :D

I used to watch the original CSI series, now known as CSI Vegas. Then, it was the must watch show. When spin offs like CSI:Miami and CSI:New York aired, I didn't like those versions. Partly I suppose because I am so used to the usual characters. But now I find CSI:NY acceptable. Lol. CSI:Miami has rarely been on my watch list because the timing is never right. However, I do remember the team leader's name, Horatio. Hahaha. CSI combines firepower and lab analysis to catch their criminals. One thing I like about CSI is when they use the machines to test for blood, chemical compounds etc. Terms like HPLC, GLC, oleic acid, pentyl ester come up and I tend to go, "Oh oh I know what it is..!!!" Reminds me of my study days in Uni. Should have paid more attention. Hmm.....

 The Ori CSI!!!

Well, that's about it. My THREE favourite television series. :D
I should have studied forensic science. But then again, I faint at the sight of blood. So, oh well.

To Mr. KT

This post is written in honour of (no, scratch that), is written with the objective to give someone a piece of my mind. (Want my cerebrum or medulla oblongata?) Firstly, this person complained that I did not update my blog often enough. Then he said, "Kenny Sia updates everyday." Yeah right, it's not everyday la Tai Kor! And why compare me to him? I'm so tiny and puny in the blogsphere. Heh. Anyway, I'm super busy and super tired and has had no inspiration whatsoever to blog about anything till today. (Thanks to somebody...) Before I go into the second part, for all those who have yet to hear about it, (it's been publicized in her FB), my sister, Eileen is now formally engaged to her sweetheart of six, seven years. Congrats to my dear dear sister. Finally, eh? Hahah. The second part is related to this. Not referring to my sis, but me. Our good friend who complained that I don't update often, had the gall/balls (Grr...) to 'insult' me. When I sh...

Of Vampires and Werewolves

I've never really been an ardent fan of the Twilight series(boo...says you). And I have no idea why some girls go gaga over Edward the vampire. He looks so paste-y with the bloodshot eyes (yea yea he's supposed to look that way). And bleah! I think he looked way hotter in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire as Cedric Diggory . That, I can go gaga. But in Twilight??? The romance between Edward and Bella is fine. Romantic, mushy and cliched. Heh. But there's nothing much for me to shout about. (Sorry to the ardent fans, esp to my three sisters. Ha.) This year, the next sequel in this series is about to be released tentatively in November. Known as New Moon , the title is definitely appropriate since the werewolves play a bigger role this time. I didn't read any of the books in the Twilight series though my sisters finished the whole lot of it. So there's no doubt I have no idea of what's going on in the next book. But judging from this trailer of the next sequ...

My Future???

After thinking for a while, (ok, not a while but many whiles) I have finally decided what to do after I graduate (hopefully) in May this year. I have narrowed it down to two options. Sigh. Either I continue my studies and proceed wtih Masters (God, help me..) or I apply for this work and travel thing to US for six months. Will see how it goes... see which comes first. If it's the latter, I'd most probably miss my Convocation. If the former is first, the latter will no longer be on my list. We'll see we'll see. :) P/S: Applying for masters has nothing to do with what the government has allocated to help the economy.
