February 5, 2011March 18, 2012  |  Miscellaneous  |  Yup, if you’ve not voted, tomorrow’s the last day to vote for your favourite N.E.mation clip. Remember there are 4 ways you can vote, and each of those 4 ways count separately: at the www.nemation.sg website (visit ...

Vote For Your Favourite N.E.mation

January 22, 2011March 18, 2012  |  Miscellaneous  |  I’m not the patriotic kind that will want to write about or promote a “government project”. But hop over to N.E.mation 5, because this one deserves some attention. It’s a stop-motion animation competition ...

Another Year Passes By

December 30, 2010  |  Miscellaneous  |  Last Christmas (the one in 2009), we were in Hawaii. I was just doing some “housekeeping” on my notebook and started to look through some of the photos, particularly those of our family holiday in Hawaii. Oh, and the ...

On 10-10-10

October 10, 2010May 11, 2016  |  Miscellaneous  |  It’s 10th October 2010. It’s the 10-10-10 date, apparently very popular with many couples to get married on this day. But on this day, the wife is sick. The baby girl is sick. The baby boy is also sick. I woke up with ...

September 21, 2010August 18, 2016  |  Miscellaneous  |  I hate appraisal time. Not just about me getting appraised. But also about me appraising or giving input to appraise others. The “system” sometimes (or often times) fail to capture pertinent performance markers. The ...

Offline…

August 22, 2010August 18, 2016  |  Miscellaneous  |  I just realized that I’ve been “offline” for a while. “Offline” in the sense that this blog hasn’t had any updates for almost 2 weeks now. There are a couple of reasons for it. Probably the ...

National Day Patriotism

August 9, 2010April 11, 2011  |  Miscellaneous  |  The most patriotic member of the family this year has got to be Vanessa. She’s been bugging both me and Mummy: “Why we no Singapore flag?” “Why our car no Singapore flag?” “See, Singapore ...

Courtesy is for YOG too, Part 2

July 29, 2010June 9, 2015  |  Miscellaneous  |  I didn’t think the YOG intended any courtesy in their Give Way sign. My suggestion to “Please give way” was moot. It’s now officially “Give Way or Give Me ...
