The Raffles Junior College Photography Club (of which I am a member) is organizing a photography competition that is opened to all students in Singapore! The theme of the Singapore Schools’ Photography Competition 2007 “Lumière” (no, not that loli) is Illuminating Social Issues in Singapore, whatever that means. The competition is opened to all full-time students [...]
Just one more hour left before Valentine’s is over, but it’s still not too late! Happy Valentine’s!!! I spent last night at a classmate’s house cutting thorns off roses and tying ribbons. Fun. I ate a lot of chocolates today, but all of them 義理 (giri). (One too many I should say. _| ̄|O) But I guess [...]

Wonder Festival 2007 Winter may have ended, but the coverages are in full swing. Akiba-blog has comprehensive coverages on all the Haruhi and Yuki figurines that were present at the event. One particularly awesome resin figure caught my attention… Legs… @_@ Not since BUBBA’s Haruhi Bunny have I wanted a resin figure so badly. It’s probably a lost [...]
Spam is the worst thing ever invented by man. It is completely useless and wastes my time. Nobody wastes my time except me. At least thermonuclear weapons may someday be used to blow up a planet-annihilating meteor heading our way like in Armageddon. Before Akismet was added to WordPress as a default plugin, I manually moderated [...]
I am now the owner of an Xbox 360. I can hear you going “WTF?” just about…now. Rest assured that I, too, share your sentiments. Actually, I won it at an IT competition for schools along with a copy of Windows Vista Home Premium and Adobe Creative Suite 2. Ergo, It’s free! And it’s a Premium [...]
