The Latest

MRT no petrol ah?

No, its not your typical excuse to give when you are late. Apparently the MRT I was on today "broke down" because one of it's 48 doors refused to close, resulting in a 15min delay on a train packed no other than a can of sardines similar to that of Tokyo's rush hour. The staff all tried...

Ending November

School's rather manageable this week, with the exception of a few hiccups here & there, not to mention training in the rain last tuesday... still good, luckily didn't catch any fever or cold whatsoever, like what most people I know are having now.. eww "mucus-maximus" Highlights of the week includes workshop. Finally managed to get almost most of...

Singapore Waterless Washing Machine

Got some time up on surfing today, & see what our peeps in the university had came up with: A waterless washing machine that removes stains from garments in a few minutes has been developed at the National University of Singapore, the facility said on Wednesday. The appliance uses negative ions, compressed air & deodorants to clean clothes....

Tablet Research

Ahh Notebook research.. Been doing alot about it over the last month or so, though I always hate surfing & drooling over items which ultimately... I COULDN'T even afford in the first place. You know its something like Pictures---> wooo! *scroll**scroll* Specifications ---> wahh! *scroll**scroll* ---> Price: DANG! Its the love for technology I guess *grins* which always keeps...

Semester 2 Barghah!!

I guess I had been away for quite sometime, duh been quite busy lately, as usual with life, business & training. Nevertheless, semester 2 started rather slow & easy. Though I am taking EIGHT modules including GEMS bawrr! But I guess its gonna be quite a managable semester as subjects such as Character Development & Critical Reasoning Skills...

Weekenders Work – Nil!

Well its Sunday now, but I will just ramble about saturday 1st as I didn't actually had time to talk about my day trip to Johor - Malaysia yesterday! Saturday The whole of saturday was more of less spent at johor where dad brought us to his favorite western-chinese coffee shop some where in johore. While crossing the causeway,...

Workstation MIA

Yea, you guessed that right, my personal workstation blew up today. Duh! & here I am posting for the 1st time on my family living room computer.... 🙄 My system had been acting up the past few days, restarting randomly at first, I needed to get work done but heck how can I work on a system which...

Vertical Marathon 2005

Well its competition time again, a time to participate & compete for the fun of it. This time, its the swissotel vertical marathon. Responses to this year's event was so overwhelming that registrations have to be closed a month early. Luckily for me & my team we registered early. Met tiwazz, a SGrunner at the swatch shop...

Free Coffee! no wait! Chalet!

And free flow it was at NTUC BM, yesterday while doing grocery shopping. Haha the thing about us Singaporeans is to pounce onto anything we see free. What else the best things in the world are free right? lol aha.. ya if you wondering why am I grocery shopping again you guess that right if you've been...

Driving License – One year!

It comes a time in Singapore, where a driver will go ultimately go through the ritual to take down the probation plate after obtaining his/her driving license for one year. As scared as it can be as putting it up initially, its a day I had been long counting down too... haha! YEA BABY! its time! Today!...

1 Cockroach = 2 Free Dishes

Well, thats the case this evening at the Breeks cafe, HabourFront. I ordered my usual double servings of fish & chips + baked rice while dad got his chicken thigh set, Sheena with her baked pasta & mum with her chicken baked rice. Everyone was happily eating when I started on my 2nd serving - baked rice...

Visit to grans *Burp*

Then there was a Malay wedding ceremony Sheena had to attend before picking her up for dinner, & man do we have to drive like almost an hour or so before getting to Sembawang where the wedding is held... aka the-other-end-of Singapore as we know it. Luckily we were rewarded with some baryani rice, mutton & chicken...

Funny Nintendo Revolution Advert

Yea we all know that Sony's out with their PS3 next year, answering that too will be Microsoft's Xbox360, both spotting wireless controllers, new processors, engine & such. But I guess nothing much can offer the interactivity the Nintendo Revolution offers. In place of the all standard game controller is a rather unique "TV remote" styled controller...

Sheares Bridge Run/AHM 2005 Photos

Its finally out, the photos of the Sheares Bridge Run/AHM 2005 by sportsphotoX.com. I can't search the photo archive by names, but only by our bib numbers. Furthermore, it took them about one week before all the pictures came online, just like the previous Newbalance RealRun. Did a search & the 2 here are the best I've...

The week recaptionation

Last week was peak exam week, so we only go back to school for papers. Its like back-to-back days on the "ulu" hours back to school where nobody's up, or down! even the buses all all empty mid afternoon.. On a sidenote, there was some problem with the web server mid week onwards, not allowing me to...

Sheares Bridge Run/AHM 2005

Had wanton mee for breakfast at Redhill Market, as the usual "econo beehoon" store wasn't open so early at 4.30am. Oh well the early bird gets the worm then. Upon reaching the padang, as expected the place was already packed when I was there, not to mention the traffic & carparks there. Pre race: Desposited my bag &...

Prep for Sheares Bridge run/AHM 2005

Today saw a 2.4km time trail for training, after some drills & foot work training. We even got the opportunity to run with our seniors taking the NAPFA test. Though the track team kinda finished even before 20% of the Napfa testees completed... no we are not fast, they are just slow. Clocked in at a disappointing...

Comex 2005

As usual, I am a living proof & verification of Murphy's Law, as typical example today when you are in a rush to meet somebody, traffic jams appear & all traffic lights will turn red when you approach them, DANG late again... Anyway, met up with Lishen & her colleague Danny at Suntec's Macdonalds in the afternoon...

New Balance Real Run 2005

It had been sometime since I woke up to the morning darkness, but today is an exception as the long awaited New Balance Real Run 2005 is on this morning!
