National Day Parade Preview - How I Felt After The Event
July 30th, 2007 · 12 Comments · Diary
If someone was to ask me couple of years ago how I felt about National Day Parade (NDP) as a first generation immigrant, frankly speaking, I could only connect at that symbolic level. Not that being symbolic diminishes the importance of the event. Quite the contrary, the power of something as symbolic as a country’s [...]

A Journal of National Day Parade Preview (2007)
July 29th, 2007 · 1 Comment · Memorable Events - good or bad
Both Cynthia and I felt a bit weird dressed in red while having Prawn Mee. Not just any red, but the kind of red that stops traffic. What to do? We were encouraged to dress this way. It is not as though our wardrobe has lots of red items to choose [...]

An SAF Officer Called Me Unexpectedly During Lunch - Sir Yes Sir!
July 27th, 2007 · 13 Comments · Diary
As a first generation immigrant, I am exempted from National Service (NS). In the past 3 years with my previous employer, Ministry of Defence was my biggest client. So, I often joked with people that I was serving NS in some ways. My work required me to travel from one base to another meeting different [...]

I spent the first half of my career life working in an International environment and then switched to a workplace whereby local Singaporeans seldom talk about sex.

After a rather disappointing outing to watch the Korean sex comedy “Who Slept With Her” last week, I tried to make amend and choose a better movie this time for the Movie Review Squad - the Japanese anime “Paprika”. Turns out that three of us have different opinions on these two movies. TK actually enjoyed [...]

Snippet Of My Life Episode 4 - Technology In The Age Of The Dogs
July 23rd, 2007 · 2 Comments · Snippet of My Life
At work we talk about reward and recognition. How often do we show signs of recognition to and reward our loved ones, our family members, and … our friends? The words “I love you” is never being said enough. And it is never too frequent to be recognised. And yes, thank you for being an [...]

Martina McBride’s Waking Up Laughing - Each Song Tells A Story Well
July 21st, 2007 · 3 Comments · Country Folk & Jazz, Music Reviews
15 years of music career, 9 studio albums and a greatest hits compilation, country singer Martina McBride’s new album “Waking Up Laughing” is packed with songs that have beautiful lyrics showcasing her superb soprano voice. Some label her as the Celine Dion of country music and I like how she makes an effort in telling [...]

So Cynthia Has A New Hairstyle
July 18th, 2007 · 11 Comments · Other People's Lives
Deep inside, I have always wanted Cynthia to have that long straight hair like the 99.99% of the female population found in the CBD area. I often think that majority of the population can’t be wrong. She did have her hair rebonded a couple of times and she never quite likes the damage done to [...]

Before I tell the story of how the reading from the milometer of my car helped me to decide which job offer to take, I would like to take this opportunity to thank my friends, family, and the avid readers of my site for keeping me going throughout this seven months long “sabbatical leave”. I [...]
