I’ve never hated Economics until I take EC2102 - Macroeconomic Analysis I. I have taken EC2101 - Microeconomic Analysis I (Year 2 module) last semester and am taking EC3101 Microeconomic Analysis II (Year 3 module) this semester and I find that I can handle the Microeconomic Analysis II much better than a Macroeconomic Analysis I despite that the former should be a more …
I’m in my examination period, for 2 weeks. Probably my worst exam week so far.
I have almost no interest in what I’m learning now (I think it’s because of exams, those topics are generally quite interesting if it’s not part of the curriculum). And I can’t concentrate. That’s a big problem.
I believe too much use of computers can kill …
As I’ve blogged about it earlier, I played in the USD150+20 tournament yesterday. I was so glad that the organizer didn’t stick with their earlier announced tournament structure and had started with 2500 chips and using a blind structure different from the main event’s and more suited for lower chip stacks. I’d say the tournament director has done a …
Who would’ve thought we would be meeting these pros right here in Singapore?
John “The Razor” Phan

Willie Tann - our very own Singaporean poker pro [Wikipedia]
and even
Phil “The Unabomber” Laak? The fake one.
Just came back from watching the USD 400+40 supersatellite of the Asian Poker Tour. So nice to see poker being …

Why did this guy get a refund while I don’t?
I called up Dell, twice and wrote email to them when I was negotiating for a purchase of my Dell laptop to get a refund for Windows tax. On all occasions, they told me no, Dell comes prebundled with Windows and they needed Windows to make sure that my laptop’s working before being shipped to me and there is no any other …
What the hell…
I’ve just checked my final exam dates. They’re on 23, 25, 28, 30 of Nov.
Hey, aren’t 23rd and 25th Nov still in the same week as study week?
Now I don’t know how will I find time to study. I’m still doing my 6-person-per-group school project, EE4214 - Real Time Embeded Systems almost by myself.
Someone get me out of this hell …
Web designers and developers rejoice! Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 is now being force fed to Windows XP users with Automatic Updates turned on and is labelled as a high-priority update.
Good news indeed. I haven’t tested it out much but I’m sure the IE CSS hacks would be less abundant from now on.
Well, designers, it’s time to un-hack your CSS!
For …
I’ve just unregistered myself for the USD150+20 event earlier today after I found out the starting chip and the duration of each blinds rounds. The starting chip is 2000 and the blinds increase every 30 minutes.
According to the structure, I estimate that at least 60% of the field would’ve been eliminated by 1 hour mark.
It’s virtually an all-in fest for the …
I have switched from Palm to Pocket PC for about 3 months now but haven’t got the chance to explore much.
Until now when I discovered that I could play Age of Empires, Simcity 2000, FIFA 2002, Tomb Raider and a ton of other games, even emulated Gameboy games, I have almost no regrets.
Though I still miss the good old Palm Desktop. Outlook and the buggy Activesync just …
I’m getting quite pissed these days, with the stress level building up due to the approaching project deadlines.
I do not understand how these people are doing Engineering in university, but can’t do a bit of thinking and give up easily when it comes to project work. Some Computer Engineering students can’t even understand a properly commented C code or the …
What’s with all those Mac being virus-free advertising campaign (MOV) that Apple’s holding and they’re shipping Ipods with Windows virus?

Knowing of this news got me really upset over …
I am back to Singapore this morning after the weekend with Sek Ling in Malaysia.
As I plugged myself back into the Web, to my horror, I found out that the World Wide Web is menstruating really badly.
Someone please hand the Web a limited edition extended maxi ultra long and wide non leaking sanitary pad.
Happy 2nd Anniversary to my baby, Sek Ling.
It’s been 2 years we’ve been together and it has also been 2 years that we’ve been away from each other. It has never been easy for us to maintain a long-distance relationship for that period of time. We have had a lot of ups and downs. But I’m glad we’ve made it this far.
I am who I am today with your …
To my horror, Google has ugly-ized Writely’s homepage and its word processor interface.
Will Youtube suffer the same fate?

As ping.sg is undergoing heavy development to implement new features and subsequently to get out of the beta stage, we are in need of a web designer. A little eye candy for all of us is always nice, isn’t it?
If you

are comfortable doing a Web2.0-ish design
(simple, straight to the point and nice),
can design some icons …

Extremely stressed right now.
This semester’s school projects are giving me an extreme amount of stress. Not only that there are no technical lectures, tutorials or hands-on teachings regarding the projects, the coordinators are also giving really tight deadlines.
These projects have already made me greatly lost interest in studies. If I am to fail obtaining my degrees, …
