For my next computer purchase, it would most likely be an apple notebook. But exactly which model, I haven’t really decided yet. But one main deciding factor would be its battery life. This macbook air is a workhorse when it comes to battery life. On many occasions when I needed to use it outside for... Continue Reading →
UOB One or Citibank Dividend?
The past couple of days, I decided to apply for a credit card. But I am torn between either getting the UOB One Card or the Citibank Dividend Card. Both are cashback rewards cards, but with slightly different perks. I spent months researching on the pros and cons of owning either of the cards. I... Continue Reading →
Buy experiences not stuff
I am beginning to realise that the stuff you buy will eventually break, tear, discarded. The fleeting happiness of owning new stuff may feel good, but it is ultimately short lived. I have also come to realise that it feeds this negative feedback loop of wanting to buy even more stuff just keep one happy.... Continue Reading →
Broken Age impressions
My short and quick impressions of Broken Age. An expanded post will be added later. Upside Artistic. Imaginative world. Great voice acting by some of the biggest voice actors and actresses. (Elijah Wood, Will Wheaton, Jack Black etc) Quirky storyline with engaging dialogue. Very childish at times to the point it almost sounded as... Continue Reading →

What’s been happening?
It's been a while since I last updated. Lots of things happening and I hate to say it, I haven't had much time writing my blog about it. But I think not being inspired to write is closer to the truth. For starters, I got my nexus 7 table which I recently wrote about and... Continue Reading →

One year on… and still running.
A year ago, I bought a pair of new running shoes, and started running 5km, 3 times a week, every week. Since then I have never stopped. March 16 marks the 1 year milestone since I started this habit. It has been a long journey. But I made it. I managed to keep true to... Continue Reading →
Who am I kidding?
Who am I kidding? I don't think this is working. I tried so hard to keep it together, to keep this group together. But I feel under appreciated. I feel like I'm being used, only when they need me, discard me when I'm useless. Just another person, insignificant. My efforts, down the drain. Why bother?... Continue Reading →
Ticket to nowhere
Lately there has been a slew of air ticket promotions from various airlines big and small. And lately I have this urge to do something crazy again.

Dreams
Lately I have been having dreams almost every single night. At times, very vivid dreams. I know that if you dream, you are in a deep state of sleep. But somehow these dreams are so vivid that it felt as if I had not slept at all. It's as if, I am leading a double... Continue Reading →

Incognito for 24 hours – the outcome.
My last entry, talked about challenging myself to be incognito for 24 hours. That means I would control myself and not check on any status updates from any social media websites such as Facebook, twitter or instagram.
