Vote Earth! On Saturday 28 March 2009 8:30PM local time, wherever you live on planet earth, your light switch is your vote to climate change. This year, Earth Hour has been transformed into the world’s first global election, between Earth and global warming.

It’s the 25th of March and Shaun turns 25 today!

The 25th of march is always a cool day for me, haha, but this year it's much more special as this 25th is my 25th birthday, the magical 2 numbers and I am 25 years young! A year young, a year wiser as well! For me, it's a rest day today, work is non-existent today (bahahahawith). Gotta chill...

Networking site restraints and blogging compel-lance

It had been sometime since I last wrote an entry in here. I am starting to think that maybe Facebook or Twitter may be taking over the possible hassle of blogs. But I do not think we will see the death of the blog, particularly this one as well. You may see me more relatively active on...

US bailout funds from the hood!

Ok we all know that the US treasury is bailing-out and boosting the economy with various economical policies using the reserves. This is so in Singapore as well. I found this photo shopped animated gif image while surfing the internet and I can't stop laughing whenever I see it. It's like ol' snoops with the big daddy's...

Photo Booth Prank at Universal Studios

Ahh, good ol' Universal studios, and with a photo booth prank to boot as well. This one really made me laugh quite a bit, courtesy with footage on the tube from CNBC. I just wonder how cooperative people will get if we have this in Singapore, or will they simply just go off marching to the complains...

The quid for the byte, internet is expensive in UK. Recommend me a UK mobile operator!

Internet ain't that covered nor cheap in Europe, I guess originating from one of the most connected nations in the world (currently 99.9% penetration in Singapore right?) I am quite spoilt for free campus internet, let be even free wi-fi on the Singapore streets and cafe. We had grown so synonymous with the word unlimited in Singapore that...

The fortnight dailies, a dated update!

Much had happened recently, well not only here but around the world, little bits here and there which I punched into as saved drafts into my blog but never had the justification to publish it into a dedicated blog post, so I will just lump it all up into one collective blog post. I think it's about...

2009 year of the Ox Chinese New Year Greetings

Chinese new year comes earlier this year than the last. It's good bye to the year of the rat and welcome the 2nd animal on the Chinese Zodiac, the hardworking Ox. Lets hope the bovine power will bring a bullish year ahead for many. Nevertheless, despite the downturn, CNY is still a period of festive joy, performances,...

An un-conditional offer from Cambridge University!

There was something rather interesting in the mail today. A nice thick white plain envelope addressed from the University of Cambridge identified via a faint stamp on the corner, nothing fancy, but an avenue of anxiety- The time is right at it is this period of the year where admission results are announced, this will definitely be...

The New Year Hello 2009! What are your resolutions for 2009?

Well, it's time of the year again where we just look back on the year and reflect what we've done in turn for the light of the new year. 2008 saw many firsts, the first US black president. The first Formula 1 night race in Singapore which in turn yielded the first and youngest black Formula 1 world...

Set your 2009 running resolutions on Nike+

With 2009 drawing to a near, one cannot help but reflect on the year's achievements and set targets on for the next. There is no surprise too that "keeping fit" or "losing weight" are one of the top 3 resolutions anyone can make, with almost everybody looking for a fitter and leaner lifestyle for the coming year....

2 days to the 2008 Singapore Marathon! Marathon tips galore

It's time of the year again- running season with the Singapore Marathon this coming Sunday. I won't be running this year's race, so I won't be able to do much of a pep and review of the race. Nevertheless, here are some notables for this year's race as well as some tips I have in pacing. Looks...

Offer by University College London

Got an email from UCL (University College London) telling me that I've been awarded an unconditional offer to do my BA and Masters of Engineering next year. Strangely with my application last September, I didn't expect an offer to come too soon, as I thought it will only be announced next year around January. They were however,...

Taking a Break

Just as how carefree the kacang puteh man sold me snacks at the Catay previously, makes me wonder that sometimes, the best things in life are the simple little things- Simple little things which we often go unnoticed in our endless wants. And it's not just the snack mind you, it's like a catalyst to a familiar realisation...
