Photo by spo0nman via FlickrI've heard so many things about this line of buffet restaurants and not all of them were good. I've had people tell me that they've got a great selection of food and it's one of the best buffet places in town. I've also had people tell me that the food was bad, either burnt or still mostly raw when they're not supposed to be, service was terrible …

Nooo! Tell me it isn't so!According to this, it seems that Borders is under some financial difficulties and may be selling out (via). I hope that what ever happens, they won't be closing down the Borders. As it is, I don't think there's enough book stores.It's not like we have a Barnes & Nobles here. There was a Dymocks outlet at City Link back in the day but that closed to …
I attended the soft launch of Podfire.sg at Geek Terminal earlier and I have to say that the experience was interesting. Please bear with me while I try to put into words what I think of the event. To introduce the different flagships under them, they screened an episode from each flagship; Blogger's Treat, Channel 65 and The Geek Goddess Show. Out of the three episodes that …

When I was in school, nothing excited me more than a field trip. It meant that we get to go out of the class and not be stuck listening to sometimes boring teachers. The Science Centre has always been a favourite of mine because it's so interactive. I love running around the different exhibits and smooshing all the buttons. Back then, we didn't know you're supposed to be …
Three years ago I had an epiphany with regards to science and my working life. This morning, while I was sitting through a weekly research update at my work place, I had another one. I was looking at the slides that were being presented and I knew then that I wanted to stay in research. I know, I know, I've said that I'm looking for a change and that I'm a little burnt out …
If you know me, you'd realise that I'm actually very indifferent about football. I'd watch it if the Singapore team was going up against Malaysia because that's a matter of national pride. I'd watch the World Cup because it only happens every four years, but I wouldn't stay up late just to watch it or anything. Everything else about football, I just can't give two hoots …
Over the weekend, my friends and I were at the Real Escape Game event again. Previously, we attempted to escape from the Mysterious Cathedral. This time, we tried escaping from Werewolf Village. I had so much fun the last time I attended the game, I decided to bring Dude with me, this time around. We met up with Jo, Raven, Sarah and Avarielle at the Scape Warehouse, where …
When I wish I don't have to come in to work. I'd wake up late, have a light breakfast and spend the morning in the pool doing laps like my life depended on it. Then I'd have a snack of some sort or maybe throw a fish fillet on the grill and also some veggies for a light lunch. I'll have a nap, just relaxing and not doing anything much. I'd spend the day at the beach, …
