Woot the poolside gym will be closed today, as they are installing a a new multi-rack weight station. Out goes the 2 decade old Universal station in place of a newer spanky one. So as told by the gym Auntie yesterday. Wonder what will it be... & that would be a good reason to visit the gym...
Last Saturday - Happy Birthday Darius! (No CAKE!?) held at the Caribbean condo at harbour front. Its literally a water city, yea cool with swimming pools, fountains here & there, but otherwise not my taste of housing (No CAKE!?) with a giant longkang running through the whole area, like Venice? haha maybe not...
I just find Singapore...
With the Semester Exams sighted on Horizon, been very very busy with tests, projects & reports over the last few days. Not to mention catching up on tutorials & eventually *qualify myself* to dig up the blackboard for sample papers to do in practice for the semester exams due in 2 weeks time. This term is extremely...
Mizuno Wave Run at Kovan last sunday was a one the first few leisure competitive run events of the year - being able to get the track team all together. The atmosphere is definitely an intro to the many major public competitive runs for the juniors, contrary to the previous X-ctry & Newpaper Big walk. Everything looks...
Got a mailer from SCM few days ago, guess I will share it here for those intending to run it this year.
This year could be the last year for the season Stand Chart could be organising the marathon, (Exon Mobil was the previous organiser for a few years back then). Moreover those who ran the event...
With the Poly 50 behind us, what else can a tried track team do after a race but chow to our hearts content at our campus's food haven outlet? Besides a few gloomy faces since the last emotional turn for many, things are starting to get back on hand. In fact training on Friday saw one of...
The Poly 50 thread has indeed grown to one of the hottest & widely discussed topics on the net (with over 76k hits & ranking top 5 on Google & Yahoo sg within 3 days). I would like to express my heartfelt thanks towards the various constructive points, concerns & issues raised in the discussion, either through...
I will take sometime to reflect & open up on the conduct of the Singapore Poly 50 race today. I am sad to say the the poly 50 is one of the worst organised events I ever participated, (even those casual X-crty events in MR can beat this many times over), with 20 out of the 100...
The last week is all about receiving the results of the mid-semester tests & of course accepting them. My Grades are not very fantastic this semester, about 10% lower than my standard grade the previous semesters, with the exception of a few 100% steals, heydoda!
Damage Report:
Mechanics II: 100%
Engineering Maths: 100%
Wildfire Pro-E: 100%
Thermofluids II:...
It had been about 2 years since I've eaten at the Metro-Y Coffee House at YMCA (along Stevens road). Previously about 5 years ago, it was the best place for Chinese style Claypot Chicken rice. Indeed the best so far I've ever tried, even beating the popular ones at Clementi & People's Park Food Center - not...
All things looks set, the pace is definitely warming up now with 6 weeks left to the semester exams, it should be all study study study very soon.
Recieved my Pro-E Wildfire test results on Friday, got a spiffy 100 marks for it. For that, our teacher awarded the top 3 in class with a HP mouse pad...
This was a very fun & interesting visit, but haven't really got the chance to share it on the blog - The visit to the CLS plastics workshop in SP last month. Had some really fun & interesting encounters of a "gluey kind" there, despite the rather ever-looming smell of liquid hydrocarbons & machines humming all around......
I guess with this new found time & comparitively slower pace of life now, just let me recap the very hectic holiday week at the comfront the school's cafe. Indeed the last few weeks was the mid semester holidays. Tests coming out at the end of the holidays, not to mention elearning assignments. I guess the legend...
And there we have it the Edgegames Adventure Race 2006 (venue) held early this morning. The race flagged off at 6am today with us spending the previous night over at the salvation army praise haven building to equipment check & preps. The 1st team is expected to arrive with 3hours of the 20km run/bike adventure event. Neither...
Celebrations was at ChinaTown Point Swensens last night (Saturday), also in conjunction with Father's day around the corner I guess. Initially we wanted to celebrate at Bugis Swensens but I guess arriving at 7pm will definitely have a long queue there, not to mention orchard or PS as well, furthermore the one at Liang Court closed quite...
Its the holidays & really had been very very busy over the last few weeks. If its not catching up & pondering over E-learning homework, its written assignments & getting all the 75 orders & cash for the track & field shirts ready for printing. Busy busy busy. Oh yea besides that theres work too, I guess...
Typing this post as I am waiting for the blackbloard to submit my assessment result, again! As stinky as it is, Singapore Polytechnic's E-learning E-stinking week is merely a typical "monkey see monkey do" thing. Its not practical as our campus infrastructure (physically & digitally) was never designed with the e-mode in mind. In fact it's more...
Wahhaa face your greatest burning fears, what next to cooler than a paintball gun of a rubber band gattling gun? A super-soaker flamer!

10 years ago, when we are all still thinkering cheap $20 mini arcade toys or with pagers & alphanumeric morse codes in school I never thought of the day where everyone my family would own a handphone each. Gone are the days of kids playing with plastic "make believe toy handphones" on the streets, now I've even...
Dropped by the PC show today as usual, its super crowded & more cramped than the IT Show early this year, maybe due to a smaller hall size. Nevertheless, had the crosshair's set on a new notebook for Mum, who was there with Dad today as well. Been sometime since I went for an IT show with...
