Terrorism

Disease, Natural disasters, fate do not discriminate,
but terrorism does. It discriminates against the innocent.

Multi Facets

Had brunch at Hong Lim Market downtown on Thursday morning. It is one of the last few places left in Singapore where you can experience the true flavours of our multi-faceted society. One whereby smartly dressed office workers thread cautiously across traditional wet markets. Almost painting the imagery of not wanting to fall into the comfortably-familiar yet forgotten zone of Singapore.

Forming the juxtapose was Clarke Quay that I just came back from several hours back. Been losing touch with the ‘happening’ scene of Singapore for quite a while, every single thing I see over there was a fasination to me. From the semi-hovering futurisitic roof over the traditional shophouses along the river to the ‘90 steps to street level’ sign upon exiting Clarke Quay station.

Have we progressed too fast?

For Fun

Originally planned to visit the new Whopper Bar downtown, but we ended up eating at The Central’s BK instead. Which is kind of lame. Had thoughts about National Service running through my mind some days back and realised there is nothing really much exciting to look forward to in my remaining one year plus in the military. Just when everyone else get fasinated about all the different well known vocations in the service and the various phrases in between, my life in NS is more or less gonna remain stagnant. Weeks of being on manning, then get extended Offs like what Im having now. Then cycle repeats.

Over and over again.

HTC Campaign

A very well executed campaign by Taiwanese smartphone firm HTC for the world market.

Operational

First few days of turning operational surely require time to adjust to. Afterall, so few my first two days of duties I have been either eyeing this very I-Net terminal or spent reading my Economics of Public Policies ‘textbook’. I must find something more meaningful to spend my time next bookout onwards, speaking of which is a long seven days away. Damn.
