The Yam Ah Mee Craze Continues!!

Omg, this guy… he’s hilarious and such a great sport!! So a lot of people in Singapore are crazy about this guy… from his name to the way he speaks to his looks, and his hair… gosh. And I got to give thumbs up to this guy. In promoting a movie night that is organised by Passion Card, he did this video: Returning Officer and Chief Executive Director of the People’s Association invites you to PAssion Movie Night on 21…

The CRAZE surrounding Yam Ah Mee

So with all the buzz about the Singapore General Elections (#GE2011), I was rather overwhelmed by the sheer amount of opinions been published on all forms of social media. I had facebook notes, youtube videos, tweets, blogposts, etc etc all stuffed in my rss feeds! It was a great insight reading most of them initially before most opinions started being very similar and then I got sick of reading. So anyway, let me just cut the chase. I’m blogging about…

Hello Sipadan

In the past 3 months, it seems like I let go of a different lifetime that I lived in and then stumbled onto a new life in which I find happiness and… contentment. Who knows how long this feeling will last but this is not a post to contemplate the what ifs.

Things to do in Bali: Mount Batur [Part1]

This is an amazing experience everyone should try at least once! It’s not easy but when you make it to top, it’s liberating. The picture above, is taken when we were already at the very very peak! We were picked up at 1.45am from our hotel lobby and ferried to the base of Mount Batur in under 2 hours. It was pitch black! The climb started easy at about 3am. Easy because it was mostly walking on flatland on volcanic…
