Should auld acquaintance be forgot

2006 is on its last legs, and we’re rumbling into 2007. Is it time to reflect?
It’s been a mixed bag for me. I’ve gotten gainful employment (compared with my previous dead-end job). New friends, new colleagues.
But I’ve lost my dear grandmother and an uncle, and all my mp3s + stuff on [...]

Pre-Christmas at the SPCA

We had a Christmas charity “auction” in the office a week before Christmas proper, just after everyone pigged out on the pretty impressive spread. All proceeds from the bids would go to charity, so everyone was “encouraged” to be generous with their bids.
The action was slow at the start, and it took awhile before [...]

The Day the Internet Died… and came back to life.

It’s become more or less a tradition that me and Nazif (another guy from the good ol’ NS times & coincidentally Peter’s cousin) visit Li Hwan place [...]

Christmas morning

Ok, so it’s afternoon already. But who’s counting?
Anyway, started sending my Christmas SMS greetings just after midnight, and apparently this year, the SMS servers held up! No delays, overnight deliveries, … Good job telcos! Here are the nice people who replied back, despite my slightly late sms and typos. :p
To those who replied, and sent [...]

Shh… It’s Christmas

“It’s that time of the year again“… how many times have you heard that blardy cliche?
Well, it is indeed, that time of the year again, whether you like it or not. If you’re with a loved one, it’s fine and dandy, but if you’re not, then the loneliness seems to get amplified a thousand [...]

Another day, another blog

If you know anything about blogging and the internet, you probably know that there are a gazillion blogs out there already.

Here’s one more.

Hopefully it lasts longer than… well… this post.
