… A few months ago there was a nationwide invitation by local organisation Musical Theatre Limited for submission of “mini musicals” under 15 minutes in length. The winning entries would be professionally staged at the Esplanade this month. Being an aspiring Broadway composer, I almost attempted to write a mini musical for submission through collaborating [...]

Lakers Are Impressing No One
Tuesday, 17 June, 2008
I’ve got a feeling the NBA Finals is more or less a foregone conclusion. Ok, the Lakers managed to survive by the skin of their teeth today, but seriously, no one is impressed. You could tell that even the LA crowd wasn’t entirely convinced that the Lakers could close out the game until the very [...]
The Kobe-MJ Comparison Can Finally Be Put To Rest
Sunday, 15 June, 2008
I’m totally loving this current huge debate on “Kobe vs MJ” on ESPN.com, in light of LA’s major collapse in Game 4 against the Celtics. Ok, now it’s not so much a debate. It’s basically a “conclusion” that Kobe is, and has never been, comparable to MJ, cos MJ would never have performed the way [...]
Post-Trip Thoughts 4: Movie Madness!
Sunday, 15 June, 2008
Taking long flights is usually the only chance I get to catch up on movies which I missed in the last, say…one year or so. (Yeah, I hardly ever go to the movies.) On my flight to Amsterdam and back, I managed to squeeze in a more-than-normal amount of movies. Ah Long Pte Ltd: Wanted [...]
Post-Trip Thoughts 3: Drupa
Thursday, 12 June, 2008
Is that a really small man, or a REALLY large printing machine? Held once every four years in Dusseldorf, Drupa is the world’s largest printing fair. Just imagine the largest exhibition you’ve ever been to, and multiply it by, oh well…say seventeen times and you’d get an idea of how large Drupa is. (It spans [...]
Post-Trip Thoughts 2: The Cologne Cathedral
Thursday, 12 June, 2008
The Cologne Cathedral is easily the most impressive man-made structure I have ever seen in my entire life. No photograph on earth can give you the full picture of how awe-inspiring this monument actually is. You have to go to the city of Cologne and stand before the structure to appreciate its sheer scale and [...]
Post-Trip Thoughts 1: Amsterdam
Thursday, 12 June, 2008
Photo (“Amsterdam”) by Simple Dolphin Amsterdam is a beautiful city. More than half of the city is actually situated below sea level, which explains the numerous canals and water bodies you see all over the entire city. It’s amazing how many people use bicycles in Amsterdam. The network of bicycle paths in Amsterdam is almost [...]

Wednesday, 11 June, 2008
I recently went on a trip to Holland and Germany to attend a massive trade fair, which explains my lack of updates on this blog lately. It just occurred to me that it’s been ages since I last visited a new country for the first time, and I found it an extremely exciting and fulfilling [...]
“Once Again”

[odeo=http://odeo.com/audio/19331223/view] Once Again Music & Lyrics by Jeremy Yew I’ve loved and I’ve lost before Perhaps I could have made so much more Of my chances, failed romances this heart of mine Cannot possibly ignore The world waits out there for me Sometimes it’s not so easy to see The perfect one who, makes you [...]
We Are One Big Happy Family In The Lord
Sunday, 1 June, 2008
Thanksgiving Thank you Lord for making today’s retreat such a wonderful event. In my opinion, everything went perfect. Indeed I could feel Your hand guiding me every step of the way, right from the start of preparations a few months back. Nothing could have been made possible if not for Your guiding and leading. I [...]
