The Latest

Friday 13th

Hello all, its so much for the battle course this whole week, and yea long weekend! I am home now, after dinner with my parents at adam hawker center, not to mention some ice-cream thereafter. Checked out doom III at guerrilla games shop at serene center, going for $66.60, 😯 expensive! Would be waiting for the price...

Singapore Idol

The national day parade had just ended & Singapore idol is now screening on TV. On a sidelook, one may noticeably note the array of people in for the auditions the possible *talents* & William Hung wannabees on TV. Not to mention the judges taking a very definite role (& impersonations) similar to that of their foreign...

National Weekend!

National day is today, & whee red & white madness everywhere...:shock: Ok now for some site based updates for the day... did some minor upgrades & fixes around the site, firstly with the addition of the new projects page. Showcased there are more or less my progress & current task(s) I am involved in, that includes assignments &...

End of sunday, as we know it.

Let me recap some happenings yesterday night. 🙄 Had an early dinner at home, mom & dad had some loh (black sauce) egg & meat dish with rice and soup, they are always good at such dishes, not bad. Then they all always go bout talking of going into the food business, well thats all talk anyway,...

5 Funerals & an elder Petanque competition.

Just came back from a swim from the swimming complex. One thing I noticed around the neighborhood is the amount of activity going on, the number of cars parked around and not to mention lots of catering trucks... Well what can I expect for, living in a matured estate. The funny thing is that a large...

Doom 3 released on the 3rd Aug in SG

Doom 3, its finally here, in a few days time! Check it out at Funan's software store, The Software Boutique's promo. And oh yea, on the driving test, I failed it :mrgreen:, think I drove too much like Michael Schumacher, the second time thats it. Oh well next test should be in september. 😉

Relaxed?

My driving test is on tomorrow afternoon and I am feeling (yet strangely) very relaxed compared to my previous test. Guess considering that it would be my second attempt, moreover if I fail, its just "oh well time to book another test then". 🙄 Found some time to actually site down and relax today. Had a few rounds...

Geared ahead.

It had been almost one month since I've touched my guitar... 🙁 or actually found time to relax & play the new games I've got the pass month... *sob* the absolute pressures of the Army Half marathon & Open house are definitely eating into my schedules, not to mention my weekend rest periods. Whats things becoming too?...

Contacts… eww

*pokes eyes with fingers* neato. Booked out of camp around 7pm for nights off, got my dad to fetch me to tiong baru to collect my contact lenses ready today. As it was my first time with contacts, the optician very much spent some time teaching me how to put them on after like 3 tries, lost...

Project “project”

Went for driving this morning, again me and the instructor had talk on driving testers & I guess the Poh guy who took failed me the other month was rather notorious for doing so. Mr Yeo my driving instructor for the day even told me that my tester failed his own driving test 5 times, you think...

End of waterpolo season

Our last match ended about one week ago with a 10-3 win against 3rd Division, resulting in an eventual placing of 7 out of 11 in the whole national level, one place ahead of last year's placing. All in hand we won 2 matches (against Combat Engineers & 3rd div) and lost 3 (against Arty, Commandos &...

Shopping spree

Dropped by to John's house with him paying the cab fare from camp *duh* so I can get a look and troubleshoot his new, yet problematic computer. It turned out that nothing could be done after one hour of checking here & there, suspecting either a faulty graphics card or motherboard as nothing was displayed onscreen at...

New item up on wishlist.

Been researching for a good digital camera for sometime now, guess I its time to start saving for one which have the following features I want: Relatively Small/compact design Manual modes (for fine photography) At least 4.0 megapixels (more than enough for 4R prints) 3x optical zoom (a basic requirement) Movie Mode (for short snippets here &...

New Art Added.

New Art piece, "offender" added to the art gallery.

Whee its saturday

Nothing special today, just spent the day at home playing Counter-strike, Battlefield 1942 & working on the second draft of the my flash work. Other than that, visited grans later in the evening. Dropped by to parkway parade for dinner at a hawker center. Did some shopping around the area & man I say the place changed...

Positive Comments…

Karpal, team team member in the AOH creative commitee just called just now, informing me of the rather impressive flash movie intro movie for AOH I cooked up dumbly in the first half of the week. Though it was incomplete, he said that superior saw it and it was just breathtaking they say. Glad they think so...

Its Sunday & ain’t booking in!

Should I be in camp, well not this time, I've been attached to home they say. To get started with the website flash animation for the army open house. A job lasting one week, which I have to squeeze within 3 days as I have a course in Katib camp from Wednesday onwards. Hope all goes well...

Losing streak

Lost waterpolo match Well, when there are lots of up recently, there will too come the downs. I guess the last *up* was me getting the news to be "attached" to home for Army Open House projects and tasking. Then, luck came falling down- first with us losing against Commandos in the regiment waterpolo match, the second lost...
