Met up with few news friend at a workshop over the week, apparently it was doing one of my freelance jobs for an event and they were my alias as operators for that particular event I was covering.

SP Open House & Spinnovex 2008 Day 3

Today is the last day of the SP Open house Spinnovex 2008 final year project showcase. The day started off as a lazy but otherwise smooth morning prior the opening of the event. There was an air of fatigue hanging around the tent (given the late industry night the day before and considering it being our 6th consecutive day...

Singapore, the Happiest Country in Asia

Well, apparently besides the happy Tibetans and villagers in Africa, Singapore is rated the happiest country in Asia! With strict rules, fines and regulations in place, strangely it's so! Or are we all simply just brainwashed to say so when asked? Even if not, well I guess we will definitely be even more happier if housing, cars and gas are...

Laughingly, advertlets domain is down

Sorry for the unexpected redirection to a parked domain at some point of the day today. Laughingly, one of my site advertising agents, Advertlets.com has expired on 04-Jan-2008 and all site's showing their ads will be forced redirected to a parked domain page which amusingly some body took and parked. Lol. How can a company run a business and...

Looking back at 2007, with 2008 around the corner!

2007 had definitely been a rather interesting year for me, with lots of interesting ups, downs and challenges.

It’s heaty waterworld for me, still gyming and running

Got quite a bit of the "heaty" lately but kept that down very well with more intake of water (not to mention toilet visits) and cooling "liang" tea brewed by mum. For those who know, I have quite a high metabolism rate and have to go with almost a full Med bottle of water every 2 hours to avoid...

Quote from wikipedia: A QR Code is a matrix code...

Bugis day out, new wallet, new fyp parts, new eating place

Unreal! Even the cars are afraid of the...

Happy Halloween, Woot FYP vetting cleared!

It's Halloween time again and look! no one's celebrating it over here in Singapore! Go around in a costume trick or treatin' and you will end up getting tricked most of the time or maybe being labeled as "siao", a crazy door-to-door salesman or people won't open the door for you.
