Above is some of the pictures I have taken for my unplanned celebration. Just click to enlarge and mouse over for caption. Caption from left to right, top to bottom: (1) My [...]

Cynthia’s Birthday
June 6th, 2007 2 Comments
When it comes to other people’s birthday celebration (actually including mine), I am usually the non-creative-go-with-the-flow type. Since there is a limit as in how much I can blog about other people’s lives, let’s skip what happened this morning and afternoon and go straight to dinner. Each year I let Cynthia choose where to dine. [...]

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. Just before sunrise, the temperature was 2 degrees Celsius and the wind speed was about 40 [...]

That One Song I Remember During Road Trip In Melbourne
March 15th, 2007 No Comments
I usually associate trips that I have been with songs that were aired in the radio at the same period. For instance, Tony Rich Project’s “Nobody Knows” is associated to my first visit to Chicago, USA. Couple of years later, during my road trip to Los Angeles, Jewel’s “You Were Meant For Me” was played [...]

Both Cynthia and I are in love with their latest album “Black Holes and Revelations” so when we first heard that Muse is coming to Singapore, we bought the early bird tickets (priced at … gasp … S$85 compared to a full price ticket selling at S$110). Today Cynthia got home early and by 6pm, [...]

In the era of media domination when XBox360 and PC gaming are kings, movies are favourite past time, and people indulge themselves into YouTube and cable TVs, hardly do we remember that board games can be just as fun if not more. It is a great opportunity for friends to interact and for us to [...]

A Birthday Treat – World Cup Final
July 10th, 2006 1 Comment
One of my best friend once complimented my passion I find in life. That’s true. Once I find a new passion, I hook onto it, savor it, and persist all the way through. I am not a big fan of football. My father supports Brazil and I simply follow the World Cup – especially my [...]

A Christmas Gift for Myself
December 17th, 2004 1 Comment
I am so happy. Finally I have got myself an electric classical guitar. It is an Alhambra and I just love the sound of it so much. The guitar itself is a true beauty. Although it is 50% above my budget, it is well worth it. The pick-up sound is just fantastic especially played through [...]
