    • Yeah.. I agree SLS quoted way too overprice.. Some experience to share; I went to SLS during CNY and wanted to buy a mp3 player for my gf. I went to the first floor and ask the shop if they had any recommandation for mp3 player. Then, a uncle who was talking to his friend halfway told me they didnt sell mp3 player and went back to his conversation. Actually there were some mp3 player placed inside the glass container. I was like wtf man.. even it's not your shop, you dont want to do business? and they were very enthu when serving caucasian. What an attitude man...

      That time was in a rush so I have no time to go Funan, I brought Zen stone at upper floor in SLS and it cost $116 which i think it's overpriced.. But I brought it anyway..

    • Thnx all for reply. It's Sookee.. sry my bad.. Anyway, she sales girl said that this promotion b.rose ring had a cert where you can exhange after 2 years or so.. like if you brought this for $368, after 2 years like say you want a $500 diamond ring, you only need to pay the remaining sum with your current $368 ring only.

      I did research on some Jewellery forum and someone said that Sookee charged b.rose way overpriced and even mention that it's not H&T cut? I dunno what h&T cut means anyway.. but he mention that Taka is better for cost-wise.

      Hmm.. actually I did not intend to invest or anything.. I just want to buy a ring for my girlfriend which i can afford and want her to be happy.

      Anyway, that promotion $368 ring is not bad though im tempted to buy. She claimed that it's the last one and other outlet might not have it.. and wanted me to put a $50 deposit to 'book' this ring. I just told her that I'll be looking around and will come back if it's still there.. so I'm abit confuse whether to buy it or not...

    • Hi all, I just check out SK and they show me a brillant rose ring for about $368. They said that only SK have this kind of cutting.. I dunno anything about diamond and stuff... so is it a good deal?

      *They added that this is a promotion price and the price will increase once the promotion ended... Previously, I went to Goldheart to buy a necklace, they tole me the same thing.. but I check about the necklace, it's the same price = =

      Yeah.. that's why he isnt included in the Five Tiger General of Shu. Actually, I think why he rebel is because of Zhuge Liang. The Romance protray Zhuge Liang as good guy hence making Wei Yan as bad one. It's because he became Zhuge Liang's hates after he killed his lord and serve Liu Bei.

      Think about this, how loyal can a man be if someone is making his life hard and added to the hate list?

      Zhuge Liang ordered Ma Su to beheaded him from behind after hearing him scream 'Who dare to kill me?' Which I personally think that this is a truth or dare thing.... If you are capable general and a peon dare you to say something to prove your worth, wouldnt you simply said it?

    • Though I admire some of the elite in Shu, but I dont like their Lord Liu Bei for various reason. Well, I’m Lu bu-ist and anti-Wei.

    • Hmm.. in order to know your stand and mindset;

      Are you.. a Pro-Shu, Pro-Wei or Pro-Wu?

      or if you have any of these: Anti-Shu, Anti-Wei or Anti-Wu?

      (Of course, you can add like Pro-supporter of Lu Bu, Yuan Shao, Dong Zhuo etc.. )

      Just want to know what's your mindset of three kingdoms...

    • I had been thinking this everytime and it eventually lead to many other event.. but of course, the paths can be altered though.

      From what I think, the starter of three kingdoms and how the story developed is all because of one person... ---> An old hermit

      (Some people might not know him, but he is what people's said.. a follower of god.. or rather an old Saint Hermit of the Southern Land)

      Here goes.. : If he didnt appear, he wont be giving Zhang Jiao 'The way of Peace', If he didnt give that book to Zhang Jiao, Zhang Jiao would not have the power to start Yellow Turbun, If he didnt start Yellow Turbun, the emperor of Han would not be threatened, If the emperor is not threatened, he wont call for the lords from all over the country to oppose Zhang Jiao, If the emperor didnt call for the lords, Liu Bei will still selling his straw hat; Guan Yu will be running throughout the country from the authority and Zhang Fei will still be a butcher, If these people didnt appear, they wont form the oath brothers, If they didnt form the oath brother, there wont be any voluntary army, If there isnt any voluntary army, Liu Bei wont meet Cao Cao in battlefield, If they didnt meet each other....

      I'll stop here for now... let's make it interesting, for those who know the 3 kingdoms storyline well.. mind continue the story? (If you know what would happen next..)

    • Well, not much people read about the actual late han history. We shall have this discussion anyway.

      Do you know that it was not Guan Yu that killed Hua Xiong at the battle of Hu Lao Gate? It was Sun Jian.

Is there a real example that he have shown or one of his general can stand in to die for him to enforce the message of the real example.

      Cao Cao would rather betray the world, than the world betray him. If he really want to set an example, he should ask his enemy rather than his own men.

    • Let's discuss about the betrayal during the three kingdoms era. This is a free for all discussion. No hard feeling..

      State the person and state the reason why.

      Firstly, the person that I wanted to say is Liu Bei! When in times of trouble, he cries.. after crying, there will be a lot of strong warriors fighting for him..

      He is hypocrite.. I said that because at the Bai Men Lou where Cao Cao captured Lu Bu, Lu Bu asked Liu Bei for help and he agreed.. After Cao Cao came back and asked Liu Bei for advice, Liu Bei betrayed him.

      Why did he promised Lu Bu first then betrayed him later? Is there a need to put this show for Cao Cao?

      Liu Bei had forgotten that it was Lu Bu that save him from a battle with Ji Ling. (Lu Bu's stop the battle by shooting an arrow through his weapon.)

      Furthermore, Lu Bu attacked Xia Pi when Liu Bei was away, it was Zhang Fei that started it. Of course Liu Bei wont blamed his brother... ok no problem with that.. but if he really want to blame a person, pushed the blame to Chen Gong. Lu Bu actually dont want to attack but Chen Gong keep persisting.

      Alright, in a man of honor... let say Liu Bei forgotten about Lu Bu saving him, and even forgot about the blame to be taken by Chen Gong, so my question is this: Why he agreed Lu Bu that he will say something nice in front of Cao Cao and after that changed his words???

      Obvious betrayal there...

      Anyway, keep the list going...

    • Do you all know that when Zhuge Liang fighting Cao Zhen.. before the battle engage, Wang Lang challenge Zhuge Liang in the battle of words... and he got killed by Zhuge Liang's word...

      Zhuge Liang's last sentence to Wang Lang: " I never seen such a shameless man like you!!"

      Wang Lang's last words: "You... you...arghhh"

      Let say he killed Ding yuan in order to serve Dong Zhuo and killed him at the end.... and the info about Ding yuan is unknown.. have you wondered how he managed to adopt Lu Bu? Was it the same as Dong Zhuo?

      Betrayal in 3 kingdoms is nothing... I can list a whole lot of people whom they betrayed. Just that Lu Bu's betrayal is so signifiance that people will always remember...
