COMEX 2012

Just back from COMEX. Wanted to get a new digital camera. Haa. I know. My current one is still very good. That is why I am holding back to buy a new one. Anyway, I am eyeing on Olympus E-PM1. I find it pretty interesting. Maybe I wait till next year. A better model out to replace it?

PC Show 碰上世界杯

This year PC Show 碰上 World Cup. I am not sure if World Cup 效應﹐PC show at the evening time is rather empty! I wun say there is nobody but compared to previous computer fare, the number of people is greatly lesser. There are more walking spaces and escalator is less packed. So the anti recession PC Show this time finally 碰到克星了。

One RU-IN 婚禮

I have attended a 婚禮 but this is a special 婚禮. It is a RUssian + INdian wedding. They joked and called it RUIN. Joke aside, it is held in a nice condo and besides a swimming pool. We have Indian food and witness a romantic wedding. Let me wish them 早生貴子。

參加 Passion Run

Now taking part in long distance run is an IN thing here. So I decided to IN 一下。So I took part in a 5km passion run at East Coast Park. Ok, 5km might be short but I think it is a good start for me. Ha... Even MM Goh Chok Tong is invited to come to flag off 5km run! It is really nice to sweat it out in the name of 減肥。

Earth Hour 你參與了嗎?

Earth Hour falls on 27th Mar 8.30pm to 9.30pm. Singapore this time round has actively participated in this event. I happened to be at Changi Airport T3 and they announced that certain part of the airport has some lights switched off. So when the event is over, they fired up the light. I was like:"Wow! 好亮啊﹗" This means that just now when many of the light are off, it actually looks ok. But now with all the lights up, I feel it is a bit overkill. Ha! So maybe airport can consider turning down some lights in certain areas where it is not critical say after midnight etc.. to save the Earth.

IT Show 2010 人滿為患

IT Show is here and as usual I will go and take a look even though it is very packed with people. From this show, you can see the 主題 and 趨勢 is to buy laptop and netbook. One whole level 4 exhibition hall is devoted to it. Another up and coming 趨勢 is TV media player. It is getting more and more popular which I am thinking of getting one in next 電腦展。

被 Sabo!!

Today got a company event and I got sabo to go on stage and play games! 他們把快樂建立在別人的痛苦上﹗So embarrassing (Aunty Lucy)! Ok lah. I now become rising stars in my company. Ha!

Kuala Lumpur 愛之旅

I went to Kuala Lumpur again. But this time I went there not for shopping or sightseeing. I am on a mission. This time round I flew to KL to attend my friend - Lock's wedding!! I 給足Lock's 面子 to 見證 his wedding. 呵呵﹗His 出場方式 is unique. Lock sings his way out to 迎接 the bride. 不愧是歌神﹗His wedding is on Sunday but I was in town since Thursday to 趁機 escape from work. 呵呵﹗

惡心 Durian Feast

My company has organized a durian eating event! Yes! Many people are cheering but only me is jeering. Because 我不吃榴蓮﹗I really dislike the smell and taste! It is really gross! After all the eating, my smelly colleagues still walk about to spread the smell. Haha.. I have forced myself to like but it fails. So I guess it is 天意﹗

Da Vinci The Genius Exhibition 令我嘆為觀止

Science Center 迎進 Da Vinci The Genius exhibition to Singapore and we are the first country in the region to bring in the exhibition directly from Italy. Da Vinci was a renowned renaissance artist, philosopher and scientist etc.. You name it, he was it. Most famous painting should be Mona Lisa and about 25% of the exhibition is on it. used a technique to measure the light reflection from the portrait and they have found that when the portrait was painted 500 years ago, Mona Lisa had six fingers on her left hand. Also of cos there is The Last Supper which is made more famous by the movie The Da Vinci Code. The entrance fee is $15 and it took me 2 hours to finish it. After the exhibition, as usual, I will buy 紀念品﹗呵呵﹗

變相 PC Show

This year PC show surprising I gave it a miss. This is because this PC show has become one that I dun recognize any more. Last time, when mention PC show, come flooding into the mind is 便宜﹐賑品。This time round 便宜﹐賑品 also came to mind but just that it is not true. I asked a friend to check out Aigo portable media for me. The sales guy said usual price $499, now selling $399. Good deal right? Wrong! Cos it is usually selling $399 outside. So if you dun keep track of price like my friend, you will just go ahead and bought it. Another is Viewsonic LCD 24" monitor. It is $339. Sounds good? No! Cos 3 months ago it is selling $369 but throw in a HDMI able of $89. So if the deal is not better off than usual or 3 months ago, what for I squeeze my life off to be get cheated?

母親節 at Imperial Herbal Restaurant

Today is 母親節 and like previously, we always will eat out to celebrate. This time round we went to Imperial Herbal Restaurant at VivoCity. This place is recommended by my brother. 顧名思義, the restaurant uses herbal for their dishes. They are also quite famous for their tea. Per cup is $15! Dun play play. Haha. But we choose another kind by bottle and ask them to 泡。It is cheaper this way. Haha. Both the food and tea are quite nice and suppose to be healthy. So I guess I will drop by soon. I hereby 祝天下媽媽們母親節快樂﹗

Imperial Herbal Restaurant
1 Harborfront Walk #03-08

龍的傳人 Dragon 花車

I was walking towards Bio canteen and saw this dragon 花車 which is featured in this year 妝藝大遊行。This 花車 is an effort by NTU students and able to 噴火﹗Give them 掌聲鼓勵鼓勵﹗

清明時節雨紛紛 Tomb Sweeping Day

The once a year 清明節 is here. My family and I will 環島追追追 on this day as we need to pay respect to our ancestors in three different places. The first will be at 萬里火化場。Then, we need to go to 斐龍山 followed by 林厝港墳地。It usually need a whole day to visit these places. I quite like 清明節 as it allows me to know about my ancestors. This also give my family a chance to be together for a whole day as a family outing.

IT Show: 空手而歸

IT Show 2009 is here again. As usual, I always like to go on the last day to take a look. I have nothing in mind this time round. I just company my girlfriend to buy her laptop. She is eyeing on Asus. As compared to previous computer fair, this time round I find there are more people. Maybe due to recession, more people come to fair to 撿便宜貨。I wanted to see the latest Asus 24" LCD monitor. Guess what? The sales person told me all Asus LCD monitors are sold out on the first day of the show. 簡直是瘋狂﹗In the end, I went home empty handed. Haha. I guess I have to wait till June.

Dinner & Dance 沒有多收穫

This year my company dinner & dance I brought home less things compared to last year. Last year, I managed to win 2 awards. 1 is personal and another is group award for my performance in company. Then I won a Samsung mp3 player in lucky draw. But this year, I only managed to win a group award. 最遺憾 is I did not win any lucky draw! This year 獎品 very 豐富﹗Got iPhone, iPod Nano, iTouch, Netbook, 37" Lcd TV, PSP, etc.. Hope to be luckier next year!
