I’m sorry, MobileOne. We had a good thing going, we really did. It’s been eight years now, and we’ve had some great times.I could spout some clichés about all good things …
I’ve said that there are two things that would make me buy an iPhone: if the iPhone is officially released in Singapore, or if Apple releases a 2nd-gen iPhone. If both came true this year I’d be a very happy person.I’ve posted not too long back that the former will very likely be happening this ...
More rumours flying around. This time it seems to be SingTel and September. Still no concrete confirmation but who knows?I stand by my previous statement: if the only way for me to get an iPhone legitimately in Singapore is to change my mobile provider, I will do so.

After my original post on hating university life — little more than two sentences long with no real substance whatsoever — reached over 300 comments in the past 4 years, with new comments trickling in every few days or so even now, I’ve decided that it’s time this took on a separate identity from the ...
Saying that the nine-year jail term was adequate, Chief Justice Chan Sek Keong found that Aniza Essa was unlikely to re-offend and her mental illness was also ‘transient’.– Straits TimesYes, it’s rather unlikely that she’ll re-offend given that she no longer has any husbands to murder.

Unfortunately for myself, it seems I will be unlikely to participate this year as I will still be doing the night shift at Suntec City, leaving me with …
As a result of the ongoing AWARE saga, which I’m far too undecided about at the moment to opine about, the AWARE old guard has posted a video on YouTube. I was quite amused by what YouTube thinks qualify as videos that are similar to a video put out by a women’s activist group to ...
WTH!A friend of mine in NUS Engineering relates his dissatisfactory experience trying to apply for a graduate research program. Unsurprisingly, the school botched the entire process and made many people angry.
WordPress 2.5 was released over the weekend, the first major upgrade to WordPress since version 2.1. There’s a lot of new backend stuff that was improved which I have yet to properly read up about and grok. I suspect it might be time for me to shelve World of Warcraft for a while and take ...
