Sean Akizuki's Fantasy Critic: Mortal Kombat X: Somewhat Predictable, Somewhat Not Predictable!
http://akizukifantasycritic.blogspot.com/2015/04/mortal-kombat-x-somewhat-predictable.html
Sean Akizuki's Fantasy Critic. Presenting my views of other various franchises in the Fantasy Universe. Tuesday, 7 April 2015. Mortal Kombat X: Somewhat Predictable, Somewhat Not Predictable! Yes Mortal Kombat X will be released on April 14, 2015 for the PS4 and XBox One while I'll have to wait for summer to get the PS3 version. On the other hand, I felt like I should write this rambling on Mortal Kombat X's predictable vs. unpredictable side. The predictable stuff for Mortal Kombat X:. Goro is the sub-b...

Jason's Ramblings: Moo
http://jason28841.blogspot.com/2012/11/moo.html
Food, movies, and stuff. Sunday, November 4, 2012. So I've cooked pasta. Today, for the first time, I attempted to cook beef - a steak to be exact. I've always been afraid to cook beef because pan-frying steak can be difficult and steak purists would thumb their noses at such sacrilege. Nevertheless, I wanted to try it if only to say I have. In any case, at MYR 15 for two (admittedly small) steaks, it seemed a bargain compared to the salmon I usually buy. Is there such a thing as too many mushrooms?

Jason's Ramblings: January 2014
http://jason28841.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
Food, movies, and stuff. Wednesday, January 1, 2014. Seasons Greetings 2013; Happy New Year 2014. Hrmmm I've really been neglecting this blog. Laziness is a powerful force! Anyway, since 2014 has reared its hopeful head, here's the first blog post of the year :). As per usual at Christmas, I took leave to go to my parents' place in Penang. The calendar helpfully placed Christmas on a Wednesday so I took the whole week off (yay). Christmas time is also my eldest sister's birthday so we had some good foods.

Jason's Ramblings: September 2013
http://jason28841.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Food, movies, and stuff. Monday, September 2, 2013. It all started when my boss suggested over lunch that we have a barbecue party. Living in a condominium, I had access to a barbecue pit and much to my chagrin, I was to be the host of this little get-together. I scoffed, and assumed it to be a joke. Eventually, the founder of the feast himself elected not to attend. But the idea refused to die. Once everyone arrived, the party began. The cook prepared a nice selection of meat (mostly pork):. Despite ini...

Jason's Ramblings: March 2013
http://jason28841.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html
Food, movies, and stuff. Monday, March 18, 2013. After the success of last week's pasta sauce. I decided to make another dish that I've been wanting to do but never got round to: baked herbed potatoes :). Based on this recipe. Posted by Jason C. Sunday, March 10, 2013. I will have the penne al'arrabbiata. Ever since I saw this video. I basically got the gist of it and just winged it. Here are the ingredients:. Now, arrabbiata sauce doesn't actually have mushrooms in it, but I like mushrooms, so I put som...

Jason's Ramblings: RIP Roger Ebert
http://jason28841.blogspot.com/2013/04/rip-roger-ebert.html
Food, movies, and stuff. Friday, April 5, 2013. I was saddened this morning to learn of the passing of Roger Ebert. As one who loves movies and one who used to write the occasional (amateurish) review, I greatly admired his writing style and insights even when I did not necessarily agree with him. When not writing about movies, his essays and wit were still master-classes in writing. Heck, he even got a Pullitzer prize. His last blog post. And the words of his wife. Rest in peace, Mr. Ebert. Five weeks a...

Jason's Ramblings: Moving forward
http://jason28841.blogspot.com/2012/10/moving-forward.html
Food, movies, and stuff. Wednesday, October 3, 2012. Five weeks ago today, I bade a fond farewell. It's so cool that I have this car now and I love it to bits. No more violent vibrations when idling in gear with the air-conditioner on. No more strange creaks. No more shuddering at high(ish) speeds. It's nice to be moving forward as the tagline says :). Also my new car is so pretty! Posted by Jason C. October 8, 2012 at 11:13 PM. Congratulations on the new car! The Toyota Vios surely is a wonderful ride!

Jason's Ramblings: May 2013
http://jason28841.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Food, movies, and stuff. Sunday, May 26, 2013. Today, I attempted to make mushroom soup from scratch. and succeeded! I've been meaning to try home-made mushroom soup for some time and after getting a recipe. From a friend of mine, I gave it a try. I used Swiss button mushrooms (brown and white), one portobello mushroom, and some oyster mushrooms. Being blender-deprived, I chopped up the Swiss and portobello mushrooms as fine as I could instead of slicing them and shredded the oyster mushrooms. Birds Of B...

Jason's Ramblings: True Colours
http://jason28841.blogspot.com/2012/12/true-colours.html
Food, movies, and stuff. Sunday, December 2, 2012. Last year, for my company annual dinner, I got up the nerve to go in costume as a zombie. To the surprise of many, including myself. This year, I didn't go in costume, but at the behest of my boss, I did something that arguably took even more nerve - I took part in a singing performance. Our performance went just the way we wanted. The music was good, the singing was good, and I think the slides even synced up most of the time. When it came to my...And t...
