The highlight of this weekend is actually watching a very interesting documentary on History, Electric Dreams. Setting a UK family to go through 30 years of technological advancement at home, seeing how they react/relive all these changes (depending on the age group). As years goes by, things we use today will somehow end up in the closet of time, that's the rule of technology. Icons of today,

Holding that little red passport gives you a lot of access to different country around the world, and this is not a bad feat from a country that resemble a little red dot on the map. Do you know some passport in the world needs visa for almost every country around the world?But what is more important about being an independent Singaporean tourist, is the reputation we earn from hotels or hostels

How can I be smarter with my words. I'm always saying the wrong words in the wrong time. What have my social exprience taught me?I'm sorry to you, I don't mean to hurt your mood at the wrong time. If you can't forgive me, no one will.

Something, some how, I don�t know� I need a place to write it down, I need to. Something is happening, indirectly related to me. I feel vulnerable, totally. I can�t give her the help she need now, when she need it most. What am I to do? What have I done?

Like what some people said, the 1st 3 month of a relationship is really the honeymoon period. Everything look good, everything feel good, everything is perfect. However, and as unavoidable as it is, honeymoon will always end, and we have to face up with the reality of life and the difference in thoughts in each of us.Not sure if it is fortunate or not, we are able to see a lot of difference

28 years old this year finally, many of my age have already gotten a stable career footing, and have even started to upgrade themselves in other professional area. For some, they have already gotten to know that special someone in life that they can see the future together.

Just back from AFA09 (those who don't know and not bother by it, don't click on the link), being a full fledge kidult is dangerous for me, as she got a little jumpy about it. I think I better constrain it to just 2 days every year. Like last year, I was there more for the concert than the other attractions (no, I am NOT that intersted in cosplay).One thing about AFA, it's moving from a commercial

It is often said life�s a journey on a car, speed control is very important. When you see a bend, slowing down in necessary. But as of how you slow down, that�s a skill of its own. For the better half of my life so far, jamming the brake is the only method I know. For those who drive, you will know this is not a good method, and how much it hurts the car�s life. In the case of myself, this will

3 months on, and many more to go. Along the way, I'm reminded of theimportance of looking beyond self, as well as beyond short term plan.Plans made before this relationship started will need to be shelved.Funds will need to be regulated and ways to expand it will need to besort after.This may seems sudden, but this is the reality of things for me. If wewant it to last, plan will definately need

I've always wished that my partner is someone independent. But I guess I pray too hard this time. When that someone wish to take on a very exotic trip, alone, I'm really quite proud actually. How lucky can I be able to have my partner in life to take on my footstep of going to so many places in the world. How happy should I be knowing that there is someone who will go the distance with me when I

Sometime, you seems to hear the same thing over and over again, and one of those time is in the occasssion you least expected.When some obstacle are too high, and you have almost try too hard till you literally break it down and build more obstacle for yourself, it might be as well just step back a little.Especially when there is only that much time of the day you have to face that

We seems to have an interesting way of planning of our time.Suppose we were suppose to go to the Kranji Memorial for photo shot, we ended up going to Kranji Racecourse for the horse racing. We still went to the war memorial afterall, which I do feel something as I too is a soldier in serious sense.

When 2 individual gets together, things will never be as simple as before.This is something almost everyone know, but having to takes matters into your own hand, thats another matters altogether. And when I finally gets the chance to do so now, the effort put in is so great that it can crumble either of us.Just take how we normally handle troubled times.

Not uncommon for enterprise to search for young talents that can lead the company from schools. Student leaders today, often end up being business leader tomorrow. Or is it really true? Can this be achieved by just 3 rounds of test, back by academic and co-curriculum activities achievement? I shan�t comment further.

Meeting up with old friends have never been easy. At our age, we have work to worry, which often tie us down. Then, there�s your other circle of friends, �cos like it or not, each of us have more than one group that we hang out. And the worse, having a girlfriend. So, with this in mind, am I really ready?

Sometime, or should I say every time, I tends to talk too much. I tends to forget, we have only 1 mouth, 'cos we are intended to speak less, listen more and observe more. We are meant to talk less, especially for someone like me, who tends to get into trouble with my mouth more than anything. So, with today's incident at work, it's a very good time to remind myself of something very important,

I always wants things to be fair, but there�s no such thing in the world. It�s only a probability. Some will get more but some will get less. But I just don�t seems to understand, and only make things difficult for myself and others. So what if I always get the bigger or better half of thing, does that really means anything? What�s wrong with doing a little more some time? I just don�t understand

I love coffee more than anything in the world. I'm the sort who is willing to travel far and low just to enjoy a sip of excellent coffee. But, it's my biggest enemy. Say, like yesterday, had a sumptuous dinner, and you want to wash it down with a cup of coffee. You dilute it to 1/5, thinking that it will still works well for the stomach, and that only.

How likely is it for me to read a book, just because sai lou decide to recommend it to me? How likely for him to have a roommate who is as twisted as him in terms of books? How likely we meet people who share such great similarity as us in our daily life? How likely for us to be in that circumstances in the first place?

To me, the year only start when Lunar New Year comes and goes. Some how, when I finally see the red packets (of which will get smaller this year), and all the HK people of which I don't really have much interest of seeing, then I feel a new year has begun. And this year, it's especially so. Due to budget constrain, I don't have any driving lesson till next month, way after New Year. And when I

Yes, I'm a kidult, someone who collect toys like a hobby, something most people of my age don't do enthusiastically. You may want to see my latest post on KAge. But anyone care to know why? Say, 20 years back, sometime before the final examination, I got all my toys thrown away.

A lot time I have not been sprinkling anything here, like my life have really become a puddle of stagnant water. But I guess not.

How many of you out there can do so? To my family, this is very real. lou ma zi has breast cancer, this will mean anyone else in the family are just susceptible to having this as the end of the road. But what is more important is

There is something that is always this way, and never the other way, especially in every In-Camp Training for National Service. Some people always get things done on time, while some people never move their butt even to the last minute. Those people you are always with, will never mix with those you just can't stand yourself. There is always a better solution, but it will never be used. It's

When 2 person fall in love, they often see the brighter side of each other. Everything is good, even digging your nose. But as they know each other longer, things change, even a simple brush of hair can be irritating. And if they start living together, things can turn to another end. This will be a problem for my future spouse also. I tends to have a hot and shot temper, and I don't normally

Disasters struck in 2 places I had travelled to during my undergrad years, Myanmar and China. Almost 3 weeks had past, the situation in Myanmar is still not looking good. All the fund raising done overseas, all the relieve materials, all these are not really getting to the people that are affected. In China, the quake had destroyed the main access to the affected area, and the rescue is slow down

First of all, I am officially jobless. I made my choice to not go into the semi-conductor industry, and I am the 50% of the cohort that is not getting a job. But, I am not going to moan about it. Life is reaching a new stage, and it can be just be as simple as changing from spectacle to contact lens. It may take time to get used to it, but eventually, you will, and you just have to commit to it

Last corner of the F1 race I call exam, and I really want to spend a moment on the Tibet issue. The root to this issue still revolves around the age old conflict of the East and West, the general understanding between the common people of both major culture group around the world. The culprit? Media. When CNN, BBC, etc reported the event of Tibet riot, they took picture from Nepal's unrest. One

And after editing the blog post on the movie of my friend from Japan (in Chinese, he is trying very hard to learn that), All the more I wanted to rush down this week or next week or anytime before it ends its show reel in Singapore.

After rushing in and out of the school's printing room for almost 10 times, and spending a total of 40+ (inclusive of wrong print), I finally submitted Final Year Project report to both my examiner and supervisor. Along the way to this day, I think I had slightly less than expected of working time spent on it as I would expected. It starts from 2 weeks ago, after I got back my report from my

Bad handling, clumsiness, etc, are some of the things people will associate me to once they got to know me better.But never had been a long-period of intense major accident-prone days, until recently.1st, if you have noticed, I had broke a brand new soy-sauce bottle the 1st night it was back in my hall.

By right, this week should still be a busy week for me, editing my final draft of my Final Year Project. But somehow, I was too fast in working on it, and I managed to take my eyes off it and write here again.And in doing so, I got a pleasant surprise from the beautiful stranger I met back in Beijing.Admist reading her blog, I read that she is planning to come over to visit Singapore during May,

In the age of technology, everyone has a handphone, it just make everyone connected to anyone, anytime, anywhere.Or is it not?I was watching a stand-up comic by Hong Kong veteran comedian Michael Hui with my family tonight.

After clearing the first draft of my report, I'm finally back on track in terms of life. I have the time to prepare my lesson before classes, and now, finally to write something about the music I like.I came across Joanna Wong after seeing her perform with her father (the producer of S.H.E.'s album) on the popular 康熙来了(as seen below).

Met the 2nd person who got it to Toshiba's 3rd round of interview, one who is even clueless that the Japan trip is totally sponsered. In all, this make it a 2 out of 3 other people I know who got the job.And the biggest revalation is how I screwed up my interview.All the 3 aquintance I knew, brought along a laptop to help them in the 2nd round, something I did not, and I regretted it very much.I

1 week has passed after my second round interview with Toshiba. Some of my aquintance had already got their call for thrid round already. So, I guess I am rejected after all.This mean, my shortcut to fufilling my dream is trampled on.Then again in less than 1 Chinese hour's time, it will be the new Lunar year.

I dropped by my lab, and try my luck to find my mentor to ask her about FYP, after my 2nd round of interview with Toshiba.The interview was good, 2 sessions, while 1 even mention the possible scenario of working in broad daylight in Malaysia, the other one ended with the interview commenting "not bad" in Japanese.Back at the lab, my mentor was already don't know how many miles away in China

Doing experiment and sample in lab is a boring matter, and you can't wait to move on to the next activity of the day.And some how, it seems to move on with what ever you have in mind.Say today morning, I had 2 hour to finish one set of sample, and when I see that it was less than 1/2 hour left for my sample to reach the desired temperature, around 60 degree more to go, I start to worry if I

People say campus life can be quite real, and it can really be.I was doing my booth for my school activities yesterday and today. Due to bad management, we were put in a rather obscure spot to begin with.We surived the 1st day with less than 1/2 of targetted new member.Come today, all of a sudden, these group of corkster from NTU Motoring Club appear out of no where, set up their table, and block

I know it's a bit late...I actually decide to write something about it, more or less because I went off to watch the firework display from afar at the Padang, with the 2 Taiwanese exchange student, and their local friends.Though I see fireworks every year at the comfort of my own balcony, there is nothing like the atmosphere over at the place itself.And I feel very fortunate.In Taiwan, the

Expect no less vulgarity in the room in the coming months. orzAnyway, hall life is not only new for him but also some of the visiting student.Just last week, I helped out in leading trip to downtown with the exchange student, among them are two gals from Taiwan.

Finally after 7 whole years, I met up with my kindergarten friend and 1st HKer friend in here, all at one goes. It is a gathering we had plan since CNY this year.We used to see each other at least once a year, be it X'Mas or CNY, but some adult problem made that not quite possible anymore. But I am gald we still maintain our friendship of say... 23 and 16 years respectively (^_^!!!The evening

Not going to rant about the in-camp. Scums will only grow up to become older scums. That's all I going to say.Instead, I am going to do review of the movie I watched last night during night-off.Too bored and fustrated to stay in the dumbass army camp, I went off the nearest mall to watch movie. Initially wanted to watch the latest Harry movie, but timing didn't worked for me. Finally, I choosed

Since I started a new MMORPG again, I led a boring life style of gaming till lou dao come back, as I am using his laptop.Life in gaming world is boring cycle of quest, training, and more training. So many resort to do this through other means. Be it using home-made programme, or outsource to third world or developing country, these are all illegal means that not only harm the gaming company, but

Actually, last weekend should be a nice one, if not spoilt by my temper. My family went out to the all-new, Swiss-owned Marche at Vivo City.lou ma zi saw the managers buying stuff at the kitchen store, so from that point on, we know the original Swiss owners means business, ready to back up the brand name the group behind Heeran and Vilage had spoilt over the past few years.In case you all do not

Till now, I finally realise what is wrong with me all this while. It is not about my look, nor my heart, that have me being single out till now.My temper.Short it is, irritated by the smallest thing at home. Often times I can curb it down outside, but in my most personal time at home, in front of my family, I just lose it.Just tonight, I was being a total idiot when setting up the Setup box for

Everyday, parents travel with their young children, and these little angels are often pettie deveil in diguse.They don't sit properly, talk at the top of their voice, running in the train/bus, etc, etc. They have unlimited tricks up their sleeves, and never fails to irritates the people around them.Except their own parents.I see this mother could just sit there staring in the blank, when his kids

Yes, he finished his Euro-trip, with only 4 piece of Vienca confectionary as souvienr for us.But I think the day itself is more interesting than him coming back.On my way back to lab, there's this PRC student approached me on which stop to get off the bus. Quite normal actually, but not till she asked if I am from mainland. My days in Beijing really had deep impact on me already.Lunch time, asked

One thing I hate about local business world is the embracing of franchise. As long as some Tom, Dick and Harry is moving his business to franchise, he is like the top story on papers, like some superstars on the gossip pages.The problem is, often times it starts to franchise, which is very common among F&B, the quality goes down the drain.In the so-called entrepeurs' mindset, to franchise is to

And so, she will be leaving in less than 10 hours, and we are still at where we left off.   This time, she will be away for more than 1 year, as she's going for internship under AISEC programme. She will only come back to Singapore to continue her bond after that.   However, I did not even got the chance to bid her a proper farewell. Can't contact her on MSN, nor her phone.

Hell lot of people celebrate Mother's Day. I sort of did it this year, but the money comes from her instead.   The thing is, we went out to Liang Court/Mediya today, and it is a situ I will really ma-cha today.   For the first time in my life, Liang Court's carpark exit is filled up by cars. The whole street out to the main street was jammed. The reasons are rather simple: 1) Audio House is

It's Mother's Day this weekend, and after so many years, I decided to get lou ma zi something. After hearing her yearning for a mezzaluna (as shown above), that she saw Nigella Lawson use till so song on TV, I plan to get here just that.Originally, I plan to fork out my own money and give her a surprise. But, I am so bad at keeping secret from her, that I told her about my idea during lunch

Yes, it's exam time for me (9 month's later, sai lou will join me to suffer this again HAHA), and it happen to be the hottest season right now.Literally and indirectly.Indeed, if not for the occasional afternoon shower, my room will be like a oven, so much so I have to flock to the hall's study to study.That is done to drive me away from my laptop also...Indirectly, this exam period is packed

There is something wrong with Hong Kong media when comes to news on Singapore.Last time, they say the government will catch and cane those who eat chewing gum. Right...There was also once when they spread news of here banning Coke... siao... We have a Coke factory just around the corner of NTU.Now, even more dumb.

Rarely I listen to Mandarin pop these days (not that I listen to Canto pop).Got Stefanie Sun's new album. The variety of music is quite huge, each has its own taste that her voice really pull it off. She sound a little like Gwen Stefanie in one of the song (no pun intended).And some of the lyrics will really strike a note in your heart.Among one, "感谢你没有忘记做你自己".In life, we always follow the crowd,
