Heh, how true. Life's indeed full of puzzles, at least for Hubby and me now. Haha... Hubby bought this new DS game that was given quite a high rating (8/10, I think) on ign.com. It's called "Professor Layton and the Curious Village". This is a puzzle game... and the main characters are this guy called Professor Layton and a boy named Luke. They were called to a village to investigate a case, and from there, they stumble upon a series of mysteries. To gather clues, they need to go around the village speaking to people and hunting for anything that might help, but whoever they speak to always has a puzzle for them to solve, cos the villagers thrive on puzzles! Also, they get to come across hidden/ secret puzzles along the way too. Whatever it is, this game's got both Hubby and myself totally HOOKED! Yeah... I know I'm very busy with work and stuff, especially since this is common test week, but to relieve my stress yet continue to 
exercise my brain cells, I gotta turn to this excellent game for help. It's really cool... the graphics are good, the animation/ cartoon is quite appealing, and the puzzles... my oh my... they can either make (one feel smart or break (one's ego). :p Hubby and I now take turns playing the game at our own individual pace cos we save our progress in different slots. In fact, he's sitting right beside me, pondering over another new puzzle now. And he solved it! He's much much better at puzzles than I am, but hey, I gotta say that sometimes I can solve difficult problems too ok... Hee.

Oh, and did I mention that many of the puzzles were designed by this real life professor called Akira Tago in Japan? He also supervised the development of this DS game. So these puzzles aren't just normal 'play' material... They really test your creative thinking and analytical skills. That's why can either make or break you mah. ;P
Ok, it's getting late. I'm supposed to go to bed soon and catch up on more sleep. Next time will post a couple of my favourite puzzles here... heehee. Tomorrow having lesson observation by some people from HQ. Was stressed at first but felt better after Hubby spoke to me about it. Now ok liao. Just hope no screw up beyond my control eg. technical glitch etc. Wish me luck!
