Transformer: The revenge of the fallen..

This is a very good movie that rekindle sweet memories of the cartoon version I had watched many years ago.. Though it has come to a stage where the story is stale and predictable..

Nonetheless, this is also the 1st movie I had watched with my Queen for a long long time... I still enjoy the moments that she held my arms and lay her cheeks on my shoulder... It was sweet.. Haise, I must have disappointed her many times for being a boring partner..

Well, I probably lost the sense of romance, ever since the little came to the family.. I was too lazy to move around, especially with the idea of taking care of her while we are out.. too troublesome and hassle.. have to prepare her stuffs and so on... But that's fatherhood..

I will change, probably till she can start walking on her own... But not at the present moment... she just cant stop moving and struggling while we carry her..

Micheal Jackson: World greatest Pop Star has passed on...

I still cannot come to terms that the world's greatest pop star has passed away.. apparently, due to cardio arrest,.. this is some disease that caught many...

The Jackson's family is still unsatisfied with the autopsy results that the coroner has concluded...

Boss at Work..

The longer you stay, you more you know about the person.. I am not sure it this match fits the description of my boss, but he definitely show some hints on foresight..

Happy Birthday To You....

Today marks my queen's anniversary of existence, since she took her first breath 30 years ago.

We went to this little buffet restaurant called Market Plaza at Swiss hotel for a sumptuous meal as a prelude to the celebrations before the actual day..... I downed at least 30 oysters in the process.. Hahaha... What a booster...

I gave her another treat at this imperial treasure restaurant located at Marina Square.. It was a chinese restaurant that serve standard chinese food with nothing in particularly good, except for what my Queen feels that the dim sum is not bad..

I got her a cake at Swensens and got ourselves a surprise, a free fire ice-cream absolutely free.. hhaha.. It was the way Swensen celebrate birthday for their customer.. We flew off to the hotel at the airport called Crown hotel to celebrate the cake cutting with four good friends of ours... It was beautiful..

Latest acquisition.. D90

Over 6 months on.. I have decided to capture D90 as a mini upgrade from D80.. Not quite impressive, but not financially strong to arm myself with a substantially more expensive D300 or more..


This camera gives more noise control at higher ISO and gives a better colour return on images captured.. The downside though is the video recording function... nothing to cheer about being the 1st DSLR that is able to record video with wonderful camera lenses that a normal video camera cannot.. It cannot auto-focus... Darn.. I only know about this about I had purchased this new toy..

Fortunately, the enhancement of picture quality and noise control gives me a bit of consolation..

Mt Little Princess Fever Scare

I was doing my briefing when my Mother-in-Law called... Estella is having a fever and vomits everything that she takes.. I was shocked, but caught my soul to tell her to bring Estella to KK Hospital..

As soon as my meeting is over, I applied for urgent leave, (Fortunately my boss was understanding in this), and rushes my way down to the Hospital.. With looming H1N1 rifing these days, entering the hospital is not a straight forward task, I was held to ask whether I had travelled recently and temperature test..

Fortunately, after a series of test, including urine test, doctor cleared her from major illnesses and told us that its probably a viral infection.. and there should no need to be alarmed..

Toy Museum

Residing at one of the most famous places in Singapore. 26 Seah Street, beside Raffles Hotel.. Before this show, "The Wedding Game" starring Fann Wong and her hubby.. I never knew the existence of this toy museum, not even when it is located at one of the most bustling places of all...

A trip over the weekend, Saturday, rekindle some of the sweet young memories of the little toys that I craved when I was young.. Astroboy, Ultraman, Mickey mouse and many many more..

The toys are housed in this unique 5 storeys shophouse. The tour starts with my granddad's era's toy at the 5th storey and brought me to collector items on 2nd...

Beauty of Thrifty or Stinging Stinginess

Spendthrift habit of mine dies off after my marriage took off.. From a person who struggle to string a savings of more than $1000 for more than half of my twenties to now a person who invest and save substantially.. My wife is indeed an influence to force me to save for rainy days.. If not for her, well, probably, I would still be living by the day.. Sometimes I wonder, have i gone into a stage of extreme thriftiness, or what others may perceive as stinginess. I just hope that its pure thriftiness..

Interesting story reflecting on organisational structure and people

My new boss has this weird sense of humour. In his opening address, he told us a story

"There once this old lady wearing torn clothes, went to a posh car dealer selling lamborgini. She told the salesman that she wants the best performance car in the showroom. The saleman look at her with suspicion, request to see her driving licence and told her that there is no loan financing available. Not impressed, she shows him the valid licence with medical proof that she is still licenced to drive, moving on, she opened her handbag and shows him stacks of $1000 notes. After an hour or so, explaining the performance and technical specifications of the car, she paid in cash and ask the salesman to deliver it to her place.. And she left. The saleman joyed at the quick sales and good fortune and got his company staff to deliver the car the next day. A week later, the old lady called and demand a refund, citing that the performance was not as described by the salesman.. It was not able to accelerate to 100km/hr in 3.9 secs. The salesman was worried, trying to solve the problem over the phone, finally decided to go to her place to have a look.. He got the old lady to drive the car as he try to assess the problem. The engine burst into life upon ignition but died after moving off. The salesman puzzled. It happened again even after a few tries.. The old lady forgot to release the handbrake."

The organisation structure that we have is in place, but the success still depends very much on the people that is operating it.. We have to do our due diligent and dun jam brake..

My first ever Photoshoot with Model Rebecca and Kim..

First and disappointing photoshoot experience.. I went to Telok Blangah Hill carpark 2 early in the morning to catch my first ever paid photoshoot of models.. Rebecca (Green) and Kim... The organiser has a very poor sense of organising the shoot.. He has never been to this place and keep on saying spot your own location and take the photos.. Darn.. The shoot seems so haphazardly done.. Well, fortunately, the models were cooperative in the shoot...

My ex boss change of command parade..

Its my boss turn to relinquish command. It was a bit emotional as he deliver his farewell speech to the battalion.. I can understand, his sense of brotherhood, the bond that we had built through thick and thin.. Became the best unit in the annual unit competition.. He has led us to achieve a lot..

Durian Durian Durian..

The late night food expedition with Kenneth and Cynthia took another revolution, fruits feast.. This time, we trash our way to balestier road, next to temple.. 4 durians, 5 mangoes, 5 coconuts and about 7 packets of mineral water, $50. Cheap man.. Must go again..

Triggers of creativity

Creativeness is a mental process in generating new ideas.. And so on... That was the introduction to the course I had attended on tuesday morning..

I was introduced to this 4-players model that states a innovative process involved this 4 roles, mover, observer, opposer and listener.. Derived from this abilene paradox. Well, dun think I had learnt much..

Fengyan's cousin, Hong Lian's wedding

It was held at Tangkak, some 25km away from Jementah on a quiet Sunday night. Hong Lian is her 4th aunt eldest son.. You can see the gleam of happiness from both families.. Especially her aunt who had lost her husband to cancer some years back..

Malaysia style of wedding has this unique way of celebrating wedding during dinner.. Guest are invited to go on stage to sing their hearts out while dinner is served and the couple goes around in no particular sequence to thank the guest.. Seems chaotic but definitely full of vibrant and life..
