Snikt !

Okay. . updates.

I went to watch Wolverine : Origins not too long ago and i have to admit. . .i was pretty let down by it. I mean its not that bad a movie really, its just well it felt a little underdone for me. I don't really know why actually. I mean the movie did stick pretty close to the comics when it came to Wolverine's origins and the action scenes were superbly awesome . .. . .I guess i was expecting more blood, more bad-assery from wolverine and a little more from Deadpool a.k.a Weapon XI. I'll probably get the videogame of the movie (which i might add after looking at the gameplay vids does not look all that bad) which has the first two in copious amounts :D Fanboy Excitement ENSUES !!However, i would like to add that there is no doubt that Hugh Jackman was born to play this character. No two shakes about that !

Other noteworthy things is a trip to a French restaurant called Le Pelican somewhere in Darlinghurst. My sister found this restaurant from her constant research on good food outlets on the internet. Suffice to say, her sources were right on ! For starters, I shared a dozen raw oysters . Oysters were pretty good, as was as good as any fresh oysters of sound quality you find anywhere. . . but then again, raw oysters are raw oysters, they're good as long as they're fresh. Moving right along to the main . . .now French food is reknowned for their microscopic portions but tremendously rich taste. Anyway i had me a Eye Fillet Steak, which was surprisingly not microscopic but the taste was as expected rich and very fulfilling. Compounding to its already rich sauce was the tenderness of the medium rare eye fillet itself. It was so good to the point that the act of eating it itself was like letting your tastebuds watch an opera and a intense action movie simultaneously. They get an overall feeling of awe by the depth of the taste and yet is fueled and uplifted by the superficial taste of it at the same time. Simply awesome. Now after finishing my main, i was like "Whoah this shit is fucking good .. .lets just have desserts and move on to hungry jacks cause i'm still pretty hungry". Little did i know that aforementioned desserts were honestly the BEST part. Desserts we had were the Creme Brulee(honestly though,how could you go to a french restaurant and NOT order the Creme Brulee? Pfft), Black Fig Souffle, and my personal favourite the Cheese Platter. Uhm .. .i don't really remember how the Creme Brulee tasted like cause i was just overwhelmed by the Cheese Platter and didn't really bother about anything else but i do remember the Fondant being pretty good itself but even better when combined with the previously unheard of olive oil ice cream ..cue WTf???! . Hahah . YES ! Olive oil ice cream or olive oil sorbet as the call it. I don't know how they do it, but olive oil ice cream tastes just like vanilla ice cream with undertones of olive oil. FARROUT !! But the real star of the show was the Cheese Platter. The cheese platter consisted of 3 types of cheeses simply named Hard Cheese, Soft Cheese and Blue Cheese and some french crackers.
Hard Cheese: The hard cheese came with a topping of blueberry if i'm not mistaken and when consumed with crackers or by itself, it tasted just like a blueberry cheese cake would . It was THAT smooth. The texture was just simply too DAMN smooth. I just have no other word for it than smoooth.
Soft Cheese: The soft cheese was a delight in itself, it would be my equivalent of a dainty petite girl with the sweetest smile you've never seen. It was like the cheese's texture was in between that of melted cheese and normal cheese. Fucking perfection.
Blue Cheese: The mother of all cheeses. I've been a fan of blue cheese for quite some time now but the blue cheese at Le Pelican made me a cheese-fearing believer !!! Hahahah

Anyway thats it for now i suppose. A week till me final exams and i'm blogging. How awesome is that?

PS: Guys, i'm still in the singles club man. I don't wanna be there but i'm STILL THERE !!
