All At Once
Sunday, 30 September, 2007

 
(Note: Couldn’t find the actual music video, so this is just some random video montage I found on YouTube.)
Everyone has a favourite Whitney Houston song.
Some like “Greatest Love of All”, “Saving All My Love For You” or “Didn’t We Almost Have It All”.
My favourite Whitney Houston song of all time, without [...]

Hmmm, I Wonder What The Point Of This Article Was…

(Almost) Random Train Of Thought On Work
Saturday, 29 September, 2007

Today was a great day at work.
It was busy, it was tiring, but there’s never a dull moment in this line. And there was that elusive sense of satisfaction present which I had not found in my previous job.
Somehow things fell very neatly in place today, and I really have to thank God for that. Indeed, [...]

Arsenal This Season - “Ewing Theory” At Work?
Thursday, 27 September, 2007

Watching Arsenal play this season, and seeing the way they’ve performed, I can’t help but suspect that the famous “Ewing Theory” is at work in all of this.
A quick check on Soccernet reveals that Arsenal is a combined 20 goals scored to 2 conceded in their last seven matches. (And yup, all were wins.) That’s just unbelievable.
And bear in mind they sold [...]

The Facebook Craze: Can You Feel It Comin’?
Thursday, 27 September, 2007

Can you feel the Facebook craze comin’ on?
I think I can.
Somehow when you start to get invites (either electronically or verbally) from friends from your various social circles to join Facebook, you know it’s gonna be the next big thing in social networking here in Singapore.
Anyone remember the Friendster craze sometime back in 2003?
I remember [...]

Dearest Singapore…
Sunday, 23 September, 2007

Dearest Singapore, 
I would like to wish you a most Happy Belated 42nd Birthday!
May you continue to grow and prosper as you have done so for the last 42 years.
So sorry that I’m more than one-and-a-half months late.
Nonetheless, I would like to present you with a most SPECIAL gift (see below), right from the bottom of my very [...]

Excited
Wednesday, 19 September, 2007

I’m really looking forward to this Friday’s 5th Songcraft session.
Even though we took a break for the month of August because I went back for reservist (yes, I am quite an important person, haha!), things in the circle have been coming along pretty nicely.
Lately I’ve been receiving quite a number of correspondences from new people who have [...]

Is The Dream Still Alive?
Wednesday, 19 September, 2007

So has anyone been following “Live The Dream”? Y’know, the what-I-would-call ”Singapore Idol for Older People” talent contest? 
As I said before, “Live The Dream” is basically a clone of the “Idol” franchise, just that they avoided paying the franchise fees by giving it a new name and by opening the contest to more mature contestants. Everything [...]

The Belgian Grand Prix Start
Tuesday, 18 September, 2007

I thought Sunday’s start to the Belgian Grand Prix was one of the most exhilarating starts I’d seen in a long while.
It mainly involved Fernando Alonso and Lewis Hamilton. Now, neither of these guys ever gives away an inch, which made for such a fascinating battle.
I thought Alonso played a bit dirty by edging Hamilton off the [...]
