Hello
As I said in my previous post, I would be starting a thread in a car forum which I visited quite frequently. However, after a few days, my thread, which I named it Our Daily Bread, got locked because they said there will not be any spreading of religion or whatsoever.
This is one of the first attempts which I tried to do something through the internet, but it kind of backfired. I certainly did process through my mind if something like this would happen. But I posted under their TCSS, which stands for Talk Crap Sing Song. This is MY version, as for their version, it is up to your imagination. Since it is for everyone to share something, I thought it was alright for me to do so.
However, things did not turn out the way I wanted it to be. My thread was read by a total of 266 people before it was locked. I finally understood the power of Internet. Whatever it may be, hope this 266 people benefitted from it.
I will be coming up with a modified version of Daily Bread or find something MORE neutral to post it on the forum. So if you have any idea, do let me know. I will certainly appreciate it. Thanks
Till we meet again, cheers!

An Up and Down Week
Greetings to all!
It has been a roller coaster week for me. Full of ups and downs.
Let me start with the downs.
1. First, my mum is teribly sick and she went to see 3 different doctors in 2 weeks. I brought her there to see them and she just rattled off the same symptoms and stuff. Cough, flu, etc etc etc. She has been coughing for months and I believed it is due to insufficient rest. "Another 2 years.." she always said that to me, " And I will sit at home and wait for you to give me money to spend."
Sometimes, I just wished I can speed things up so that she can rest at home and not slog at the stall. HOW HOW HOW? My help is limited and my gf and I have put all our free time into the stall during our Saturdays. My dad and my two uncles also help out as much as they could.
Enough said, life goes on.. And I guess this is the biggest down this week.
So whats up with the Ups in this week?
1. I finally got a job! Yeah!! I found a job in UOB, though it is relatively poorly paid, I guess it is the experience and to give me a prelude to what is installed for me in 2 years' time!
And a more amazing thing, when everyone else told me that it is impossible for both my gf and I to work together, God made a way and He provided this wonderful opportunity for both of us to work together! =)
2. Made some new friends when I went to a DIY session for my car yesterday. And I also decided to start a thread in that forum where I will type a short story from " My Daily Bread" in order to plant a seed. Who knows, what might grow out of this seed.
3. I am also trying to watch the Initial D anime that KS lent me last Sunday. It is really nice but I wonder if I can learn anything from it? =) If you see one black vios zooming around.. maybe its me? HAHA..
4. Also, I am also learning the song Mombassa from Brandon and I can play quite a bit already! YES YES YES!!
Till we meet again,
Cheers!

Holiday Plans
HEY!!!
Its my holidays already! Though it started like one week ago, life was never slow enough for me to take a breather to do what I would really want to do.
I did quite a bit of stuff over the past week, let me recall.
1. A new chair for Ikea. My old plastic chair from Ikea broke because it did not have a tilt function but i leaned back soooo often that it gave way. Ikea CLAIMED that they tested their products could withstand the weight of an elephant.. ARGH!!! Am I heavier than one? Hmm... Anyway, I bought a new chair from Ikea that has a tilt function and it is SUPER comfortable! And it is only slightly more than $100.
2. Packed and rearranged stuff on my table. I brought my at least 5 year old Altec Lansing speakers from my desktop and transferred into my room to use with my beloved Macbook! And guess wad.. after soo many years.. the speakers and the subwoofer are STILL working! KS: I should suppose your Altec Lansing speakers will be as long lasting as mine! =)
3. Gave tuition 4 times a week. I stopped for tuition for 3 weeks and now I am paying for the backlog. But I really din expect my student to be so dependent on me to teach them everything from scratch. One week away from Mid year exams, I taught them the whole subject in ONE lesson. How amazing is that. Haha.. But still, I was quite unhappy with their attitude towards studying, and gave them a piece of my mind! But I guess, thats what I really wanted. To be able to teach them soft skills that are beyond books and education
4. Went to celebrate Mother's Day yesterday! Haha.. Because of the stall, I had to bring forward Mother's Day celebration this year. My gf, my sis, my mum. my aunt and I went to Roland to have our dinner last night. My dad could not join us because he had something on. But nevertheless, we had a wonderful time eating, talking and laughing. It has really been a long long time since my mum could come out with us. =)
5. Waking up late in my holidays? No way!!! ARGH! I have to wake up at 630 every morning to fetch my sis to school. I guess it is a good thing too, so that my mum can do the necessary preparations for the stall. Also, if I did not wake up at 630, do you think I will be typing my post at 830 in the morning? =)
Okie, enough of updates.
Now, this will be my holiday plans for this 3 month break.
1. Get a temporary job.
2. Go back to school for 5 weeks for a small module in the special semester, to learn how to dress myself for work and everything.
3. Continue my japanese lesson with my gf.
4. Learn photoshop, dreamweaver and flash from KS.
5. Hopefully, create a personal page using the knowledge I have acquired from KS.
6. Start an online business with Benny and my gf. Becasuse I believe this will be a unique experience for all of us.
7. Continue my guitar lesson with Brandon.
Thats all for now.
Let me show you some clips created by Brandon.
This is a song from Tommy Emmanuel. Mombasa.
Amazing guy. Hope I can be like him some day..
Cheers!

Mario - Easy or Difficult?
Hello!
Mario definitely brings back lots of childhood memories when we play our super mario! Also, not forgetting our Sonic when we first got our Sega. Remember those days? Haha..
Came across this video in the midst of my exams and I thought it was quite funny. It will COMPLETELY change our mindset that Mario is a relatively easy game.
See and you will believe!
Cheers!
