Wahaha!!
It's revived! My 3x3x3 cube is revived! After leaving the dismantled pieces outdoor to dry for about 2 - 3days in the balcony, I've finally decide to piece them back and see how things go. And now! They are smooth like mad! Basically you can rotate one side with one finger. And this brings me to the revelation that the lube must be exposed to dry 1st and not being wet and oily (and smelly). Next, I took my 4x4x4 and spam the core with the lube, and leave it under the sun for around 2 - 3 hours? VIOLA! Now is terribly smooth also! WOOHOO!!
Anyway, I'm shipping DIY cubes* over to singapore, they're gonna be plain (most prob no stickers, but can get them.) and if you're interested, you can let me know and I'll give you the quotations and stuffs =D. Please let me know asap, either thru my tagboard, msn, or just simply drop me an email =).
*DIY cubes: Do-It-Yourself cubes, they are slightly different from store bought cubes because of its unique internal structure (how the cubes run on one another) and best part is that you can make it into the tension you want (the ease of spinning). Thus it's slightly expensive as compared to store bought cubes, but if you really want to speed solve, it's definitely a better choice for money.Kaiser.

Aye aye, I know its been super long since I last post, because in my previous post, the lil boy doesnt have a name yet. Ok, his name is Keanu (yeap, from Keanu Reeves), what a cute lil name lol. Best part is, his name starts with the letter K, woohoo!!
And basically what I've been meddling around with is my 3day-old 4x4x4 rubiks. Yep Vampyre, I got myself one after I couldnt resist it anymore. And man, the algorithms for the parity cases are MAD! But either way, I can at least solve it normally (if no parity occurs) after I got it for the 1st night. Stayed up on youtube and yes, I got it way faster than learning 3x3x3.
Another thing, bought a can of silicone spray to lube the cube, 4x4x4 became smoother, 3x3x3 cant really turn anymore. I don't know why, but the 3x3x3 kinda just crash on me like that, its said that the silicone lube works on all cubes, but I don't know.. really.. =(.
And yah, I guess solving the 4x4x4 is really a bigger deal, because ytd after solving it on the bus, a lady with her friend did like a silent clapping gesture, I know they're practically screaming on the insides. Yeah that happened to me before, only with a 3x3x3, but trust me, they seem hard but actually it's quite simple once you get the hang of it.
Oh, on a side note, the silicone lube really stinks, it's got like a mint lemonty flavour or something and I read online that the contents of the spray actually cause brain damage if inhaled (yes like glue), and yes you've guessed it, I actually breathed in quite abit, I hope I'm still as smart. Well, the cube would definitely test this point out. =).
Kaiser, out.

Had nothing to do so decided to upload the pics from phone to comp and yeah, I'm here to update a little for the Toys & Comics Convention at Suntec.
I went with Ai before I met up with Jinlong & David there, didnt manage to meet neither Qimin, Sam, George. Alright so the place is packed with people, and the 1st of those I saw were cosplayers. And boy, I agree with the saying that Sg Cosplayers are getting better & better, it's more realistic now.
And so we went on to tour around the booth, saw IFs (Imaginary Friends Studio)'s booth and we got all excited. Took pics with my phone cos no one brought camera, and yes! took with Artgem as well.
Alright, I shall let the pictures do the talking?
