I’m not doing very well with my resolution to write more on here. Oh well. Just got back from a lovely holiday in Japan and Taiwan. Went to visit two of my close friends who showed me the best time. I’m really lucky to have some awesome friends. Hopefully some posts should come out of [...]

Richard and his song
Posted in Inspirational, life, personal, thoughts, tagged acoustic, friend, guitar, music, passion, singing on February 3, 2010 | 3 Comments »
This is a story that reiterates a fact that we often forget: persistence and passion certainly pays. I’ve known Richard for over 10 years now; we went to university together. He was a big-talker, and not a good singer (sorry Rich, but this line is key to the story). I remember listening to him sing [...]

I really can’t believe it’s 2010 already. The year 2000 is still so fresh in my mind (Y2K bla bla), that it’s hard to fathom it was TEN YEARS ago. Sheesh. I was 20 then. I am almost 30 (holy f***) now. Where did all those years go!? Time flies so fast it’s scary. I’ve [...]

After a manic few months, this week is the first time I’ve had the luxury of being a little lazy at work. Laziness at work = guilt, so hell, let’s at least blog Not much significant has happened to me lately. Oh I did move into my own apartment. The bliss. It’s so great to [...]

TED is the best thing that has happened to the planet. When TED went online about 2 years ago, it became the best thing that the internet has given the world. TED reminds us that we all have the power to change the world, and gives us the inspiration to do something with that thought. [...]
Immortal MJ

The impact of MJ’s sudden death to me is similar to that of Princess Diana in 1997. Heartwrenching and unbelievable. I loved MJ as a child and grew up with his music. My room was full of his posters. My books had MJ bookmarks. I had all his albums on tape and then on CD. [...]

My Mum sent me this quote about a week ago; and ever since have received it a few times and think it’s just great. It’s simple but gives you that whack on the head we all need once in a while, especially when we wake up grumpy. Tried to find out who originally wrote it, [...]
