Because The Night

Thursday, April 26th, 2007

For those of you who ever listen to Singapore FM stereo during the early 90’s, you might remember the show ‘The A-List’ on The Perfect Ten 98.7FM.

If You Are SERIOUS About Exercising (Single minded tenacity)

Saturday, April 21st, 2007

My have lots of fond memories about my uni days, but one of my roommates is NOT one of them. Back in our day we all stay in the dorm (unless you were filthy rich) and the our rooms numbers and roomies were chosen for us, but usually we ended up with our coursemates, so […]

“Air Mata Kucing”

Wednesday, April 18th, 2007

This joke I read in Gila-Gila many years ago:
Boy 1 is drinking something from a glass labeled ‘Air Mata Kucing’. Boy 2 looks on.
Boy #1: “Saya tak faham la…”
Boy #2: “Apa tu?”
Boy #1: “Macam mana mereka buat kucing menangis…?”
Boy #2: *bengang*

Thursday, April 12th, 2007

I’ve just finished the second season of Black Lagoon, called The Second Barrage. Actually, it didn’t really seem like the second season to me, I watch all 24 episodes of the 2 seasons in one long continuous stretch, over a slow few months.

First off, for those who haven’t watched Black Lagoon, it’s anime about the […]

My Favourite Bon Jovi Tracks

Wednesday, April 11th, 2007
