This is a continuation of the last post. I spent the last few days organizing my gigabytes of files, and here are some old videos re-encoded into MP4 (smaller size, better quality). These are not new and I have posted them in other places before, so you might have seen them already (skip to the end). Quicktime or VLC required.
“Chashu mo nai” (No more roasted pork) starred by Steve, John and me. This video is about the first day of our trip to Hokkaido back in March, 2004. We went to a red light district and spent 50mins(?) waiting in line for some famous ramen. We were told that the Chashu ramen was sold out and hence the title. [4 min 50 sec, 13.5 MB MP4]
Chicken won’t stop singing and my mom says, “Eat your dinner!”. We tried to teach him “Shalala lala”, but he only caught onto the “lalala” part. [30 sec, 1.3 MB MP4]
Paragliding in Kyushu, to be honest I had no idea what the coach was saying. I could never remember left/right in Japanese, not even now. [27 sec, 1.2 MB MP4]
For more interesting and better produced videos, go to macTV Videocast and subscribe to their feed. They have lots of vintage Apple commercials, as well as parodies and animations.
iMac Love Story: A CG clip about an interracial and romantic relationship.
A really old Apple II commercial.

Having taken an user interface course, worked at a Macintosh lab and dreamed about using Apple Aperture, I finally bought my first mac using the Apple Student Developer discount.
Frontrow and the iMac remote are the most fabulous tools for podcast and vidcast addicts. I can now get my *fix* every night before I go to sleep, and I wake up happily in the morning with the remote in my hand.
Movie trailers: (It was interesting to see Chinese actresses starring in Memoirs of a Geisha, speaking English with fake Japanese accent.)
What is better than managing photos using iPhoto on a 20-inch widescreen? It sure feels good to switch from a 12-inch milky laptop monitor to a 20-inch widescreen. Be happy for me .:tongue_kao:

This is an audio recap of me staying home, working on my math homework at around 11pm. I could literally hear my clock shaking against the wall. :censored_sg:
(Hum…this doesn’t sound too bad on my lousy laptop speakers)
Oh, by the way, it came from the restaurant downstairs. Can I complain if it happens before 12am? :stress_kao:
