It's been two months and I am still jobless, after having recently graduated with a degree. It's hard when interviews don't come often and you don't make the cut from that precious few interviews that you have went. Yesterday I saw a banner posted up along the streets near Chong Pang Community Club, on Toastmasters.... Continue Reading →

My take on the iPhone 5S, TouchID and iOS 7
On the 18th of September, Singtel opened the floodgates, by allowing Sngtel mobile subscribers who registered their interest on the new iPhone 5S to reserve their phone for collection. The website for reservation was up at precisely 4pm. At 4.04, the gold iPhone 5S was sold out. 4 minutes. That was all it took to... Continue Reading →

I am a Singtel mobile subscriber. So when Singtel opened the floodgates to register for you interest in getting your hands on the new iPhone 5s, I pounced on the opportunity in the hopes that I would get one. But it is not that I need one. Rather, it was my mum that needed my... Continue Reading →

The Name of Wind
Having completed my second read through of this amazing novel by Patrick Rothfuss, I am still at awed by the way it is written.

The Five Dollar Savings plan
I read this wonderful savings plan from someone else's blog, called the 'Five Dollar Savings Plan". It's a simple activity that anyone can do.

To be content and not compare
Sometimes I need a reminder. And that is to be content and not compare. To live and enjoy the moment, rather than be blinded how I reached my destination in the first place. To live life as if every day is a special day, a gift given to us, to cherish it, to laugh and... Continue Reading →

I wish..
Sometimes I wish that I could be more courageous, more confident about myself. To fully accept who I really am and not think too much about how others look at me.

I already own a PS3. It is my second set. The first one gave way after using for about 4 years. I bought my first PS3 on the second year after it was originally released. Since then I had my fair share of games played on the console. Lately however, it has been a drought.... Continue Reading →
