Nokia N95

It seems that Nokia is quite aggressive on the phone launch lately, sticking to the N80 form, comes the lighter yet (more loaded) N95. It simply just give me second thoughts of continuing to wait to purchase the super outdated and overdue Benq-Siemens P51 (which still spots a 1.3MP camera, but runs WM OS and had GPS)...

SP websites – Probably the worst student website

DBS ATM Security Info

Got a e-mailer from DBS, guess should share it as I believe this not only applies to DBS atms as well. Also, in view of the increasing numbers of ATM card skimming cases around the world, its's good advise for users to be extra cautious when using the ATM, locally or overseas, so we won't fall victims...

Rainy Terry Fox Run

Contrary to the clear weather conditions during breakfast at redhill market, dark clouds and strong winds greeted us at habour front hawker center at 7am upon meeting up with Alex and his friend Albert (who always can't helped to be mocked my Alec about his age and the lack...

Aji-Tei Japanese Restaurant Dinner

You can't deny it, Suntec City Mall is the safest place to shop in the world, or at least in Asia for now. Almost every junction around the Suntec/CBD area, including bugis where I was today is controlled by traffic police with uniforms as white as their freaking pretty highway patrol bikes, even theres no obvious need...

Bumping the Distance

With the Singapore Marathon coming around the year end, begin seeing myself bumping up my weekly leisure run distances, up to 21.4km today. I always have the mentally of setting the requirement to training leisurely half the distances I intend to run for each year's running season before "qualifying" myself. So as for example this season's X-Country,...

GTA: Coke Advertisement

OMG, this is nice. Especially if you know GTA. With a very different twist of life. Paying for the drink, "carjacking" tipping the homeless, putting out fires and returning cash. Do a little good and it all comes back to you lalala-lalalala! All GTA style at a TV near you! Now to burn another 15km of rubber.
