Sorry for my previous post that is kind of depressing and thanks for all your support. I am OK, still [trying to be] as positive as ever. So today has been a mad day at work. I’ve told everybody that we are moving office and yet, work requests, meeting requests, email requests aimed at my team from [...]

Cold Cold Floor, Cold Cold Reality
April 29th, 2009 11 Comments
Good thing I have waited for a week or two before writing this. It would have been rather depressing for me to write, even more depressing for you to read. This proves one thing: for most of us, work is just business. Unless you are building something that has the civilisation, interglacial level kind of long [...]

Taken – I Squeezed Cynthia’s Hand So Hard That It’s No Joke!
April 27th, 2009 2 Comments
I am a big fan of Liam Neeson – less so for that Star War film but more so for say “Schindler’s List” and “Michael Collins”. So naturally, I like “Taken”. Did you know that it is scripted by Luc Besson? “The Fifth Element” is my all time favorite. And surprise-surprise, “Taken” is directed by Pierre [...]

Dell Swarm – The More People Buying It, The Most Discount You Get!
April 25th, 2009 10 Comments
So I was at what appears as the world first preview of Dell Swarm. Of all the countries in the world, Dell has decided to choose Singapore as the pilot for this new and innovative way of product sales. Maybe that says something about how we Singaporeans love … discounts? Or more so for group [...]

Spanish Supercharged: Elementary 2 @ Las LiLas School
April 21st, 2009 8 Comments
The thought of giving up on my Spanish class has briefly come and gone. I would miss my classmates too much, my teachers too much, and if Cynthia wants to continue, I just have to press on. It is rather up to my linguistic limit knowing how little talent I have on that department. Today [...]

Norton Internet Security – Protection That You Won’t Feel Like You’re Having One!
April 19th, 2009 3 Comments
These days, everything seem to be on steroid. Like the F1 on TV, that very fast very furious movie, and like the new Norton Internet Security I have been using for the past 30 days. In the beginning of this year, I wrote an entry on the Norton Gaming Edition. I’m still running that in [...]
Mai Kuraki (倉木麻衣) – touch Me! – Odd Song Choices Aside, A Decent Effort Nonetheless
April 18th, 2009 2 Comments
Again, the Japanese pressed CDs of Mai Kuraki don’t come cheap. Three times the price of a normal disc. HMV Singapore charges me the price of one English CD as shipping fees. I guess it is sort of fair. If only I could read Japanese and order online instead. Pondered in front of the counter [...]

A Lovely Quiet Six Days of Holiday
April 15th, 2009 6 Comments
These days I am addicted to taking pictures of what my friends’ surrounding working environments look like. Like my sister’s and mine. I find it odd that I think I know that someone so much but have no clue what he or her daily life is like. The picture you see here was taken when [...]

Fast & Furious 4 – So Vin Diesel is Back
April 13th, 2009 2 Comments
I have no clue what the rest of the Movie Review Squad like about the Fast and the Furious franchise. To me, it is the fast cars and the hot babes. Again, what’s the story about? Who cares when the car scenes are that hot? Though time and time again I have been saying that [...]

Talents Are Made Of This: Our Drummer Plays the Tiny Drum Machine Like a Video Game
April 11th, 2009 1 Comment
After the morning Good Friday Mass, our drummer Wieke and I were talking about the popular video game “Guitar Hero” and the Stand Alone Drums that you can buy and play it like a pro. For our jamming session right after the Mass that Cynthia, Wieke , and I have attended, our guitarist Jason has brought [...]
