On March 28, 2007, Tong Kiat (far left), Cynthia, and I have made it to the top of Mount Kinabalu – the tallest mountain in Malaysia that is 4095.2m above sea level – admiring the magical moment of sunrise.

March 28th, 2007 6 Comments
After acquiring my dumbbell set back in January, I needed something more. There are muscles that cannot be effectively trained by dumbbells. So I consulted my buddy Kwang Fei and he strongly recommended me to get a barbell or a curl bar set. One day he called me up as he was going to get [...]

Yuna Ito’s Heart
March 26th, 2007 1 Comment
Afterwords: I wrote this blog 2 to 3 weeks ago (have to space out blogs of similar category or to give way to blogs with higher priority). Had it not for Ayumi Hamasaki’s double “Black” and “White” best albums that took up the 1st and 2nd position in the Singapore HMV chart, Yuna Ito’s album [...]

How Rocky Inspires Me
March 24th, 2007 4 Comments
Few friends of mine know that I am a huge fan of the Rocky movie series. Some whom I have talked to discount Rocky movies as bad acting or what-so-interesting-about-boxing.

Yesterday I had an important appointment to attend and just when I was ready to go, I failed to retrieve the location of the appointment from the Internet.

Four Surprises In One Day
March 18th, 2007 No Comments
This is possibly the shortest of my blog so far. Some mood I am in. Ever since leaving the local website design company I had a short stint with – which I am grateful to have known a big group of friends whom we still keep in touch and meet often – my teams were [...]
