It was a good day yesterday. My son took an entrance exam in FEU Diliman, and he passed. *grin* It was both our first time to set foot in the school. Jyego was visibly nervous, but he was also ecstatic at the new environment surrounding him, a vast university on roughly a 15-hectare piece of land. In spite of the scorching heat, it felt nice walking on the university's covered walks and seeing a lot of greens all around. As the university claims, there is peace and quiet within the school premises. When we reached the Guidance office, it was past eleven o'clock in the morning. We were politely told by one of the personnel that we were a few minutes late into having Jyego take the test. We agreed to meet there again at one o'clock in the afternoon.

Fruit Ninja

I'm addicted to Fruit Ninja, an Android game application. It's a very simple game but I so love it. As the name suggests, there are fruits you need to slice to get points. The more fruits you slice, the more points you score. There are bombs to avoid though. You can play the Classic, Zen, or Arcade mode. My favorite is Arcade, where I've registered a good 604 points. It took me more than half the day to set that "New Best" score. Whew! Fruit Ninja is one of the very few games I have ever been addicted to. The others include Pac-Man (of course), Tekken, Tennis, and Guitar Hero. That's just about it. I'm a console game dummy, I admit. I don't like doing difficult tricks or solving mysteries or unlocking items. In short, no-brainer games for me please; but what the heck. Games are games, so you're supposed to enjoy them. That's why I love Fruit Ninja. Game over.
