This post is dedicated to Mark’s Warden. For she has showed me the way when no others could. So, thank you. This post, I hope, is the first and last time my toilet bowl is featured in my website. The story begins with the heavy drilling noise from one of our neighbors one morning, when [...]

Cruising At The Speed of Snail, Lately
August 8th, 2010 No Comments
Lately, I find myself cruising at snail speed, on almost everything that I am doing, that I am planning to do. Perhaps August is the month that is at the tail end of a summer holiday, but not quite near to the year end events such as Christmas celebration. Or perhaps, I am feeling blah hit [...]

The above picture was taken by Benny. In the picture are Lora, Cynthia, my niece Bethany, and I. We were in a restaurant of my choice, near Bird Park. Quite possibly the most authentic Dim Sum restaurant that we can afford, that my sister and I have located so far. I asked if I could take little [...]

The Cloud Watcher

I am not a sociologist. But I suspect that when you temporary move someone from one environment to another, that causes a temporary change in behavior that may linger for a little bit when you move that someone back to the original environment. For the last two weeks, in France, I constantly kept an eye [...]

Summer Blog Episode 11 – Headphones and Lipsticks, Testicles and Handbags (Final Episode III)
July 2nd, 2010 No Comments
On the Friday before our two weeks summer holiday to Europe, what a beautiful morning it was. Life had been hectic, up until that morning. I felt so lifted that morning. And as I walked towards our car, I stopped, and realized that I have forgotten to bring something important to work. “Oops. Where are [...]

Summer Blog Episode 7 – Organic Vegetable Noodle With Soup
June 28th, 2010 4 Comments
Recently I have been experimenting in becoming a quasi-vegetarian. There had been in the past heated debate between my friends and I on how healthy, or rather not healthy some vegetarian dishes are. Granted. San meat does not mean that it is good for health. To take one level up, recently I have been experimenting [...]

Summer Blog Episode 5 – Lifts Going Crazy
June 24th, 2010 2 Comments
This is a true story. The problem was not without warning. At first I discovered that the buttons that called the lifts were not as responsive. At times when I pressed the button, it remained dull, and nothing happened. As if determined by some random events behind the electrical circuits, the button would light up, [...]

Summer Blog Episode 4 – I Am A Wallpaper
June 23rd, 2010 8 Comments
Year 2000, Kevin Bacon played the character of Hollow Man. Being invisible, this fictional scientist takes full advantage of his new found ability doing stuffs that he would not be able to do, including spying on his female neighbor. Rumor says that there is a deleted rape scene too. The film prompted me to read [...]

A Comic Relief – Uh Huh … Say Hello To mioTV?
June 10th, 2010 11 Comments
I love watching Formula One on TV, at home. Getting another setup box because ESPN is moving back to SingTel this July is something I dread, but inevitable. I suspect under the umbrella of mio Home – a bundle of land lines (yes, plural!), broadband, and television – I may have saved some money. It [...]

First Day At Work At My New Office
May 11th, 2010 8 Comments
My official first day of work at my new office began with a 15 minutes drive from the city to Changi after dropping Cynthia off for work, which is not bad consider all things. Singapore is a small country. Distance is often measured by the number of traffic lights and junctions between the starting point [...]
