“There is no point in teaching a young one to choose his battle. He is going to fight every single one, refuse to relinquish his power, and only experience can teach him such thing: There is no ultimate victory and there is no absolute righteousness. As his eyes are cast upon the rain of fire, [...]

My Friend Made It to Workers’ Party’s CEC (And Another Friend Made Partner)
July 3rd, 2008 · 8 Comments · Other People's Lives
What a bizarre week! First my sister got hitched. Then my old friend of more than a decade whom I have worked with officially made it to the partner’s rank in a major accounting firm just yesterday. On the same day, I saw another old friend of mine whom I have also worked with featured in our [...]

So Cynthia’s Going to Learn Spanish (Working Title: So Spain Has Won the EURO 2008 Eh?)
July 1st, 2008 · 7 Comments · I See I Write
My [male] bimboic approach to football tournament - no offence to the fans out there - is more like watching the American Idol. And hence, my only contribution to the blogosphere (if you can call it one) is my quick drawing of one fine Spanish player who scored the golden goal. Spain has won the UEFA [...]

Gecko in the Sky: One Man’s Pest is Another Man’s Pet
June 29th, 2008 · 16 Comments · I See I Write
O lovely creatures that roam my home and keep the bad insects in check. I can’t comprehend why some would smash your species into blood and gore, spilling guts on the walls and on the floors. I would never do that. Uh-ah, never crossed my mind.
At times I see some of you in my kitchen, [...]

It’s Not Who’ll Be In The American Idol Finale. Question Is: Which David Will Win?
April 30th, 2008 · 11 Comments · I See I Write
Provided that there will be no major screw-ups by the two David’s nor any kind of ‘divine intervention’ by the producers, the next few rounds of the American Idol will be exactly like the past few rounds – a series of agonizingly predictable episodes of everybody taking the musical chair of bottom positions except David … [...]

Got Kicked Out From Tourist & Transit Hub @ The Singapore Flyer But Overall Experience Is Positive
March 27th, 2008 · 27 Comments · I See I Write
I genuinely wanted to know more about where else to sightsee in Singapore. At the ground floor I saw an outlet called “Tourist & Transit Hub” and I thought I’ve hit the jackpot. There were brochures at the counter and the place did look like a tourist information centre. I have no idea why the place is named [...]

Last Lecture Of Randy Pausch - How To Live Your Life
March 7th, 2008 · 10 Comments · Other People's Lives
Hypothetically, if you knew that you were going to die and you had one last lecture, what would you say to your students? It is an academic tradition of Professor Randy Pausch’s University to give a “last lecture” to the students except it was not just a tradition in his case; he is actually dying [...]

Boys Night Out … At Toa Payoh
February 29th, 2008 · 7 Comments · I See I Write
Avid readers may recall my good buddy KF the muscleman whom we … erm … did one time publicly admire each other’s bodies (pretty much like what girls do to each other I guess?) and did our little not-what-you-think kind of home videos. Cynthia granted me a last minute night visa so … Boys Night Out it was!

Just For Laugh - Handphone Charging Service
January 24th, 2008 · 6 Comments · Other People's Lives
Okay, I actually do like this hotel in Jakarta so I am going to put the logo instead in order to avoid the name being picked up by the search engine spiders. It is also my attempt to write something light and not so wordy. Hope you like it.
Last Monday, when I left Jakarta, I [...]
