Hot hot hot

On the weatherwatch, yes it had been a very hot period in Singapore this month, not to mention the number of bushfires around to keep our friendly firefighters & tax expenditure busy for the time being. I used to hate the effects of el nino, though I am not sure of its part & its eminent effects...

pleasure pressure?

Reading from today's Straits Times main, an article in the kaleidoscope. A particular interesting quote made by Mr Md Islam (a foreign worker from bangladesh working here) saying. "In my country, people read or travel for pleasure. Here, it seems, we all work for pleasure." Personally I think its bad. & I guess you don't need Steven...

OMG the power of piak piak

Enjoyed a leisure game of counter-strike source last week & man do online play do seem rather "uncompetitive" these days. Namely because of some overly powerful gun or superpower entities.
