[Full disclosure: I used to be a (very enthusiastic) member of the church when I was 18, attending the myriad of cell group and prayer sessions that took up most of my time. The one year spent among the CHC crowd taught me plenty, though what I learnt was probably not what the church had in mind. By the end of the one year my beliefs in the CHC's idea of God had diminished to …

Tell me. Because I just did.Someone on the forums posted the link, and the name was familiar. I clicked it. It was pretty dramatic, the way the pictures loaded (there were quite a few of them).First the hair. Then the face. Here is where my eyes go wide. It is her. And then the rest of the picture loads and my mouth just drops open.Believe me, it's not titillating. I haven't …

The Facebook wall for the Asia Conference event which I blogged about earlier has come alive after the blog post. The post itself garnered over 50 comments, as did the entry on Tomorrow.sg. Acknowledging my skewed perspective on CHC, I've been following keenly all comments, looking to explore the other side of the argument that I was sure the very vocal members of CHC would …

Read this from the HardwareZone's forums and confirmed the story with a friend in the military. A few bloggers have blogged about it too.2LT Lee Hong Yi, better known as PM Lee's son, had fired off an e-mail within the military network lambasting the "quality of leadership" in the SAF to the top brass, including the Minister of Defence and the Chief of Defence …

No it's not Dave Teo, enough of him already! Taken on the way to Marsiling MRT Station. Guys and girls, this is why armies usually mount their attacks at night. Well, and the element of surprise thingy, but this is the main reason. I didn't think much of it at first, when I saw him from afar. We were walking towards each other along that long stretch of pavement running …

With absolutely zero preparation and less than 2 hours of sleep, it was with a certain level of trepidation that I started jogging when the whistle blew in the dark hours of the morning.Thankfully, I made it back safe and sound, but a 26-year-old captain from OCS (an instructor) was not so lucky though. From what I've heard, he collapsed just before the finish line and died …

I recently heard from a friend that his neighbour had committed suicide, presumably from too much stress. No big deal, you might think, except that he was just 11 years of age, a Primary 5 student. It leads me to wonder: are children in Singapore subject to too much competition? Has the same competitive spirit that has driven Singapore forward now gone into …

That's the title of a book I read early this year, by two famous negotiators who had dealt with terrorists, political leaders and the like. It was a book on precisely what they did best: convince, persuade, and negotiate. For all their experience I found little insight in the book, since most of the stuff they talked about was pretty common sense. They even admited in the …

I'd forgotten how exciting swimming in a public pool can be, with all the interesting and scandalous things that one can observe if one would just look beyond his swimming lane.But I managed to refresh my memory today, when I finally began my training for the OSIM triathlon - two weeks before it's going to happen - by heading down to the Yishun public swimming complex to …

Seen @ Braddell MRT station. One look and you know a civil servant was arrowed to do it; this is officially the most ill-fitting slogan I've ever seen. Definitely not the work of a private advertising company that expects to get paid.Let's see, to be a winner, you must:- earn less than $1,500 a month at the age of 35 and above- put some of that less than $1,500 into Medisave- …

So Charb and I go for a 6-ish km jog around Kenilworth Road, a warm up before we start our training regime for the Paris marathon next year. We talk about the principles that we've learnt in our respective journeys in life as we cover the distance together, almost in tandem. How one's wealth is only temporary while one's worth is permanent, and in the long run the two tend to …
