MoreAnd we thought that the solutions to cleaning up the environment are to switch off the lights and turn off the taps after use. Not forgetting planting shrubs and trees in the neighbourhood. Perhaps the point is missed. Consider the high rate of replacement of clothes, shoes. Iphones? The root of the threat to the […]
MoreDear: Can I really be a salesperson? Reply: I think you can look back at your own life. There are times when you must have convinced someone of something, or at least aligned her thoughts with yours. Hold on to that feeling. What remains is the subject matter at hand. Our reaction: WaaaaaaH! Didn’t know […]
MoreA quick guide to tailoring shirts for first timers; a quick reminder who might qualify as good tailors for myself. I am in Bangkok and I did the best that could ever be done to test who qualifies as a good tailor. I went to two different tailor shops. One decidedly bad and the other good. […]
MoreThis was a nightmare. To prevent my ass from getting kicked, I’m keeping this short and sweet. The swimming pool, the 20-storey condominium, etc, the setting was perfect. I stole a kiss on the cheek of this girl I got to know back in junior college. Perhaps I was not charming enough; she told the […]
MoreThis was a nightmare. I can only remember it in pieces of imagery. Simon Yam. Dubious detective. Leon Tan. The bad guy who didn’t seem like a bad guy. Led to an infernal affairs chase between all parties to 3 different places in which we had to dig pieces of paper bearing name, email, address […]

MoreI always preferred conversing in mandarin, more so than english. And I always thought I excelled in it. This is especially so when I think I have caught my customers by the balls, speaking to them in their preferred language, ie Mandarin, building strong rapport with them HAH!.. until my girlfriend Shu Yi told me […]
MoreI sometimes wonder what it’ll be like working on my family business together with my grand-dad if he was still alive; in comparison with other multiple-generations family business in which the grandparent helms the business.
MoreThis was a nightmare. As you would feel when an elevator travels downwards, I felt an initial slight lowering of the platform at Potong Pasir MRT station. I knew I needed to get out onto the surface, quick. However, it wasn’t more than a few running steps that the ground suddenly gave way* completely. I […]
MoreI kid you not. Some of my 20 years old buckles remain good as new, while some buckles as old as a couple of years are already flaking, some broken at the pins and joints. My dad and I arrived at a conclusion together. Back then, they didn’t have the technology to mix metals in […]

MoreI never wanted to combine play my Lego dudes with my sister’s Polly Pockets when we were young. Worse, combine play between my Lego dudes and Barbie dolls. Let me now try to articulate my thoughts on behalf of the young I: It was not about it being girlish to play with my sister. I […]
