as i was driving home in the rain just now, it felt very unfamiliar. not because we haven't had any rain in Singapore for awhile, but i think it was because of the modern convenience of always being under shelter when it rained.sure it was an unearthly hour of two-thirty in the morning, when usually i'm nestled in the warmth of my bed, but this 'being in the rain' episode …
So while i haven't been updating much these days, mainly because i don't see a need for this blog to be a diary of sorts anymore. i suppose my blogging habits have changed, as perhaps my lifestyle and thinking has shifted too.i've been noticing a similar trend with my friends as well, and maybe with the entire ecosystem.i think there will always be bloggers, but one thing …
Just pinging the blog just to let it know i'm still alive.Busy juggling work, life and blogging. i think i've been failing miserably. Still trying to get my other blog up to speed too, but that's failing miserably as well.Ah well, such a miserable existence. my bit of pessimism to the Net.
Everybody has a price. Today i found out what mine was. It's called the negative value..You can't buy me if you haven't appeased my soul, but you can definitely make me feel like wanting to put myself up for sale.i dipped into my savings to pay off some of my bills. i was supposed to have savings this month, but now i don't. it's not a good place.. i know the next few months …
The world spins on its axis in twenty four hours.We expect our news much faster than that these days. While i'm on Twitter, i get real time updates from my fellow human beings halfway across the world. I am twelve hours ahead of them. Not counting the things I get to read of blogs, news sites, video sites and pictures.I guess it can be perceived that the world is getting …
surreal. how i haven't typed in here for so long. it's so easy to just shrug it off really. after a hard day's work, or just the whizz bang of too many rehearsals going on, or the day to day meeting ups with friends.. and the ever pertinent question "what do you read this blog for?"this blog doesn't really have a niche, so in that sense there really isn't a target audience. …
Argh.. somehow i can't think of any better way to send life updates to the web except through point form. Too much Twitter? Anyway, i hope to be disciplined again and come back to long form posts. but here are some highlights from the past two weeks1. Hosting another Open Room, this time more as our way of giving back to the community. Really glad people enjoyed it2. Attended …
so i tweeted just now, and i realised that my hashtag #thingstolove is pretty unique. No one's used it yet (me first!).. and i thought maybe i could start something with my online peers. instead of complaining, let's create a Twitter repository of the things we love and hashtag them! So here's the deal, every time you tweet about something you love, remember to add a …
1. attended Blogout 2009 on Friday. learned a lot.2. coffee and shopping on Saturday. bought two new Muji shirts.3. big family lunch and jamming with Leeson on Sunday.
y'know what? i love my blog. it's not the best designed, nor does it come as the authority on any given situation. it's nothing like the blogs i recommend to clients that perhaps have a specific communications goal in mind, but at the end of the day, it's mine. even if this blog does not take part in discussions that shake our industries, or enlighten readers with …
my light is still blown. i actually replaced the bulb, but it still won't light up. my guess is something to do with the circuits. probably ask my dad, he's the engineer in the house.learned a bit about life while climbing the ladder fixing my light bulb. i actually have a fear of heights, and between the last rung and the final flat portion of the ladder, there was a …
few films leave a lasting impression on me. i love film and movies.. and by an impression, i mean i start to remember quotes, watch it multiple times and study a scene's lighting, mis-en-s …
By: Coleman Yee, Room 3, 02:00PMWhy does anyone need an information architect?Ans: The basic goal is to make a website user friendly. Make information easy to find.Going further, it’s easier to build small houses than large complexes with plenty of rooms, wiring, pipes, etc… It’s the same with information architecture. How do you design a ...
1. i changed the width of my blog, sidebar and header wrappings. now my youtube videos do not get cut at the edges, and i learned that the body wrapping of my blog is 500pts, my sidebar is 230pts and the buffer is 10pts. my header also has a width of 740pts so it's flushed. Read This to do the same.2. i changed my blog header, and i edited the image using Picnik. the image i …

So my bass playing duties have seen me going back in time. one playing with the ever excellent kevin mathews whose past work included the watchmen and popland. now if you didn't know, Kevin's an accomplished songwriter who was at the forefront of Singapore's english music scene in the nineties, and the best thing is that he still pursues it after all these years. he …
the weekend's finally here! i'm so happy.. perhaps it's got something to do with playing a gig with kevin mathews tomorrow at the Esplanade Outdoor Theater. and although i've played a fair amount of shows and this one should be no more different or special (because they all are), i'm looking forward to it for the simple reason that we've been practicing as a band for about …
And even if the words don't sound right,I will love you till the day my heart dies,till the day my heart dies.And even if this ain't the right light,you're prettier than anything,you're prettier than anything that I'dprettier than anything that I'd write.There's something in the way our lips touch,there's something in the way we're stuck togetherand they don't build love like …
Let’s get one thing straight first: in order for an ideal democratic society to exist, we require a reliable and independent media reporting objectively on public events that help a society’s stakeholders make their own informed choices (represented by their elected government.)“The media, however, contribute also in positive ways to the functioning of …
the sun is setting, and i was just staring out my window. i don't get a view of the sunset, but if i turn my head to the right, i can make out its brief shape as it sets over the highway that sits outside my room.in the distance, there are children playing, and they remind me of my childhood, when i used to play with my cousins and parents.we don't do that much these days. …
