Love the new curtains, bedspreads, ambience and very "red deco" my mum had been put in the living room as part of chinese new year's tradtion, very nice. And so it ends... the tedious 6 day nightmare. Didn't...

Wet week.

The last week is one which truly tests one's ability to carry in all weather conditions- both in the sun and rain. Is was definitely not a "very" wet week but sometimes I feel that rain always come always so at the right moment when you are outdoors, in fact on two occasions (Mon and Wednesday). Personally I don't...

Washburn

Yea, got my guitar today, a Washburn WG228 electric guitar, plays well on the clean and distorts. On the technical side, it spots a humbucker/single coil/humbucker (H/S/H) setup, Floyd-Rose tremlo with locking system and a well finished fretboard and polished greenish-black body throughout. Very worth it for the price range. I settled for an ibanez practice amp and a...

And on top of that we work 72 hours a week without overtime pay either,...

Christmas in 15

Dinner was at the Mariner's restaurant at the singapore maritime center. It was actually an eating place open for mariner's who stop by here in their sail/shipping trips. But now its opened to the public, if not they won't be getting much of customers either in this era of transport efficiency. The food is generally good but a little...
