Pondering to quit Zoo World or not

Bryan Chung — Mon, 29 Mar 2010 05:43:02 +0000

I shall try dedicate this week to posting about Facebook games. I have been clearing my Facebook games that I find no interest in playing anymore recently. Games like (fluff)Friends, Cafe World and Home Inn I have removed in recent weeks. (fluff)Friends was the hardest to let go since I was a moderator of (fluff)Forum. But with the game interface being so static, there is little much to do. The game is a lot about creativity, that which I lack. Plus other reasons, I left (fluff)Friends. Followed by Cafe World. I still find Restaurant City much nicer than Cafe World. Hence it was not point for me to continue the game even though I had like $8million cash in it. Finally is Home Inn. Initially nice but when I became high level and going to the next level was so long, I decided to leave. Mainly because I am playing the new game by PlayFish – Hotel City (will blog about this game another day). Well after removing the applications from Facebook, I regret not taking a screenshot of the final play for each game.

Next time I am pondering to quit or not is Zoo World. Louis and I got almost our entire class addicted to this game at one stage. Exchanging animals and racing to the first on our friends’ list. I like the game because I still can earn money without having to enter into the zoo’s flash interface. But the moment I want to decorate my zoo, I have to load the flash interface, and it lags super badly! Example, the moment I start keeping 5 trees, the game starts to lag so badly. It is only playable only if I reload the game after keeping 10 trees each time! Hence, I am really put-off trying to decorate all the zoo maps I have. Here is just one map I decorate and this already took me 3 hours!

I was on the verge of just removing Zoo World yesterday. But today when I woke up, I decided to keep it. Not to try decorate but just earn money and breed more animals. But then again, what is the point of just breeding more and more animals? See, that is why I do not have any more objectives in this game after max level. Until I can find another game to play, I did not mind keeping this game. But it should be on my next “to-clear” list of games.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Although not celebrated here in Singapore, I believe I have many viewers from United States and Canada. So I want to wish everyone from the other side of the planet, a very Happy Thanksgiving! Traditionally, it is a time to give thanks for the harvest and express gratitude!

Although is not a festival that I like or celebrate, but still…

“Happy Halloween (fluff)Friends-Style!“

Renewing Friendship with Jiayun!

The last time I met with Jiayun was almost one year ago – at my house to celebrate her 15th birthday. Despite the lack of meeting with her, we often address each other as “haopengyou” (‘good friends’ in Chinese). We have constantly said we will find time to meet each other when possible. This year she is having her ‘O’ levels. Therefore opportunities are even fewer with most of her time committed to her studies. Glad she still found time out yesterday to meet with me. She came my house after her supplementary lessons in school. All we done at my place was really to catch up with each other life. Glad she never found it bored just to come and spend time together instead of going out.

But going out we did! It was when Louis suddenly asked me if I wanted to accompany him to buy contact lenses. So I asked if Jiayun want to go together and she did not mind. She did meet Louis once before for a brief moment previously when I went to Jiayun’s school to collect a gift from her. A drive-pass collect thing. We had to travel on public transport today because my brother was using my car. After lunch together, we went to few optical shops. Finally landed in Spectacles Hut in Hougang Mall. And while Louis was busy with his contact lenses, Jiayun and I were playing around with the spectacles.

After Louis was done, we walked to his place to take his basketball attire to play later in the evening. Took the chance to see his house. Knowing him so long, never been up to his house before. Then he introduced us his new dog – Butter!

That was all for the day as Louis and I walked her to the bus stop for her to take bus home. While we went home by bus too.

“Haopengyou always!“
