This National Day...

I met my cousin’s newborn daughter… petted a cute, old golden retriever named “Sakura”… (this is what I call a “balanced” dog, Caesar Millan! - super good girl!) Went to Zhou’s Kitchen at Anchorpoint - I really liked the layout and vibe of the place! Thinking… it might be a good Sunday brunch place, non? I’ll show you… arty...

Give me Mediterranean now!

A night in Orchard Central with the bestest uni mates! A dose of seafood paella (didn’t realise the bokeh until I edited the photo) meets… the sizzle of juicy mushroom, cheese and chicken kebab on a hotplate. Throw in a hot cuppa latte! coupled with a cha-cha-cha exotic ambience… Try the international beers - get a whip of tastes from around the world… ...

For awhile… I thought everything was going fine… But I’ve suddenly got this biting feeling… That I’m not cut out for… Am I thinking too much? Why does it get me down so easily? Why do I have feel so helpless and vulnerable again? Why do I have to hold back my tears

I won’t frickin forget how ignorant and tired I was during the screening of Awesome as Fuck!!! You know how *garang* I was to rush to the front of the theatre during Q&A and tried grabbing the bunny to answer Green Day Trivia questions, that by the last question when I finally managed to grab the bunny… I answered the question INCORRECTLY! So f*ing disappointed with myself! Q:...

Flowboarding, Instagramming & Media Masters

Went to flowboard at Wavehouse, Sentosa with Stephanie, and I sort of sprained my neck. Luckily it got better after a week, ‘cos during my first week of working in the new place, it was tough socialising and bearing with the pain… *especially on the first day*! My all time favourite app on the iPhone is Instagram! Even Photojojo promotes it! Download it, use it, love it, follow me...

Somewhere in Bencoolen, Waterloo, Bugis in August...

Wow! I’ve nearly forgotten about these pictures I took with my Olympus PEN E-P1 until I chanced upon them while scrolling through my August 2010 photo album! So, here goes… a set from when I went on a stroll along this lively area: Is this a traditional massage booth along the street? All you need are a pair of deft hands, some chairs, brollys (ah, my fave) and a few decades of...

Artichoke @Sculpture Square & TCC @Bugis Junction

Whole Spring Chicken - eh I quite liked this! It’s the star of my dinner. Very yummy dish! The cous cous and sauce they used, plus the onions and the well-cooked chicken… and lemon! // $56 Spanish Cured Meat - really expensive for the little plate of processed “lup cheong” - but I would say the taste is pretty full-flavoured and soaked pickles compliment...

Rejections

Dear Brolly, I’ve never imagined myself as a salesperson - but recently, everywhere I go, people tell me that life and work is all about selling. Pitching an idea is selling, marketing a product is selling, advertising a service is selling, dating is selling, rallying is selling. Yet, some people like me are just introverts, people stuck in shells, who needs some kicking to get our butts...

Just don't get the deal with businesses running in...

Don’t understand how Singapore companies are still paying in “recession mode” & are exploiting workers and underpaying people, putting them on long probation with no benefits. Is that right? Like, I’ve never seen a company that isn’t like that since I started working. Is it just my luck, or am I not searching hard enough? When you ask the GEN Y grads if...

Feeling a little off, that is.

Dear Brolly, how would you feel when you’d sheltered someone all your life and the person decided you are not as pretty or as light as that expensive little brolly at the upmarket store? Getting put off by someone important, who doesn’t even appreciate you - that is a lil harsh, no? Sometimes you feel that your knowledge of things has exceeded theirs, and you want to grow out of that...

Irrational.

Time to take matters off perspective and treat views with a pinch of salt. I hate whistle blowing behavior - being overly sensitive is a bad trait. And in view of general ideas, better take a step up and expose your brains to the open world. Opinions abound, and they might be subjective. The typical conservative mindset is a little too restrictive for me. If you’re not to up to the...

I’m Apple, and I’m autocratic. I’m Tumblr and I’m monocratic. How can I edit my tumblr layout and get a comment link for every post? I guess not. It’s not like Blogger. Alright, I gotta adapt to this new format. I love the photo upload here though. Tumblr’s suh-weet layout is what got me to stay. The looks I say! The looks! Just like an Apple. Pretty. I want...

End of Internship at Zomedia

It has been quite a ride! Three months in Zomedia, lots of patience, frustrations… and the takeaway? Skills that you will never get from working temp jobs at a companies asking you to run for coffee and file documents. For me, it has been a whirlwind ride working on Digital Nights 2010. From the umpteen changes we make every day on every single minute detail, to publicizing the digital...

What do you blame?

Sick, and tired. Breaking out and breaking down. Toothache, knee hurts, eyes dry, throat dry, lips chapped. Is it just me or is it just the haze? Mentally exhausted as well. Maybe it’s time I stop thinking so much.

Thinking this is a little like Livejournal.

So… If I tumblr should I blogger too? HAHA, I was so tempted to type bloggr. Like how Flicker becomes Flickr. Twitter should be Twittr. Then everything will be square.
