Back to regular programming… The full details for the Short+Sweet theatre festival at the Arts House is now up. See (here) for the full line-up of 39 excellent plays and 1 half-baked play by a first-time wannabe-playwright that somehow managed to slip through the cracks and get into the Top 40 round. There are 4 [...]

The Right Way To Shop At IKEA
Wednesday, 30 June, 2010
I think I’ve found the correct way to shop at IKEA. Not too long ago, I had to get a chair from IKEA. I roughly knew what kind of chair I wanted and how much I was willing to spend on it. So I went on a weekday during a non-peak hour so as to [...]
Confessions Of A Viral Video Creator
Tuesday, 29 June, 2010
I have a confession to make: Last week I created a viral video. Just for the fun of it. As far as I’m aware, it has now spread like wildfire, and people are posting the video on their Facebook walls, and many random strangers have started messaging me on Facebook telling me how much they [...]
The “Look Left-Right-Left” Fallacy
Monday, 28 June, 2010
I’m not sure if this thought has ever occurred to you before, but since this is a blog about totally random musings, I’m posting it up. That’s what this blog is for anyway…to ask the weird questions. Here goes. I’m sure that when you were young, you would have heard of the wise old adage [...]
Thoughts On England-Germany
Monday, 28 June, 2010
I don’t usually talk much football, but it seems the England-Germany game actually lived up to its billing, so I thought I’d just drop my few cents worth. I actually went for a jog this evening and started watching the match at around the 30min mark, so that shows you how much of a football [...]
Thoughts On Sumiko’s Marriage
Friday, 25 June, 2010
It’s not every day that Singapore’s most famous female columnist gets married, so I thought I’d milk it for all it’s worth. I’ve been getting mad hits on this blog since this morning like you won’t believe, all searching for “Sumiko Tan” and “Hurricane”. Seems like she’s still a very popular figure here in Singapore. [...]
Dreams Do Come True
Friday, 25 June, 2010
This is breaking news so I thought I’d better post my thoughts on it. Earlier today my friend messaged me telling me that Sumiko Tan is getting married (here), to which I replied “No wonder I’ve been getting so many hits on my blog today for searches on ‘Sumiko Tan’!” Well, the reason why this [...]
“More S’poreans Open To Online Dating, Matchmaking”
Friday, 25 June, 2010
Another CNA article which I just spotted: “More S’poreans open to online dating, matchmaking” It’s kinda ironic how one day they’re saying more S’poreans are staying single, then the next day they’re saying more S’poreans are open to online dating and matchmaking. Something isn’t adding up here. Anyway, I guess the online way is quite [...]
NBA Finals 2010
Friday, 25 June, 2010
Just some concluding thoughts on this season’s NBA Finals. Well, obviously I was disappointed that the Celtics lost, but credit to the Lakers…they were definitely the best team in the league this season. One thing that I was wondering: This year we happened to have a Game 7 of the NBA Finals, which was immensely [...]
“More Singaporeans Are Staying Single”
Thursday, 24 June, 2010
Spotted on the CNA website today: “More Singaporeans are staying single” To quote from the article: “Last year, of those aged 30 to 34, 42 per cent of men remained single, up from 33 percent ten years ago. Likewise, 30 percent of women remained single compared to 22 percent in 1999. Singlehood rates were the [...]
