Holidays are here.. for a week though.. but its always better than nothing. Its really amazing waking up not worrying that you have overslept or worst still, slept while doing your work.

Its time for some good rest, and more importantly, some catching up.

Here's what I found on a Terrible One's Website.
Spot The pinkie.

I've been talking for quite some time that I am intending on transferring all these bloggy stuff onto my portal. But due to the sheer workload that I have, I haven't had the time to do so honestly. As many of you should know by now, I'm running a business and let me tell you, its one heck of a load of work  to finish. Its basically fighting fire all day long which is quite straining. But since I've chosen this road, I'm making the very best about it. Honestly, I've learnt so much invaluable lessons in this road that I can only be thankful for. Really appreciate my partner as well for being as helpful whenever something crops on my side.

Some of the other things that I've been doing...

- Been doing alot of product designing.. Can't release much info out as these are rather confidential. You;ll be amazed at what people can just copy and rip off you wholesale and claim its theirs... Sick people out there..  They're off to our suppliers and manufacturers for inital processing.

- Schools been crazy lately.. hell loads of test and what not... Keeping up.. but always when u think u're up, your sinking again...

- Business... Expanding.. getting more recognition.. thumbs up..

Some music I heard over the radio.. quite catchy.. but what a title.. "Potential Breakup Song..".. MAnnn....

If you do watch the MTV.. which is the video below.. you'll find very nice animation and design work.. Nice.. like the liquid splatter effects..

Its been ages... *cobwebs*... Sorry for the lack of updates. 

For those who don't ride their bikes properly.

This was the song that I listened to every morning taking bus to Khaki Bukit at 6am for Bike Course. Brings back so much memories...

Singaporeans take a rather dull and disinterested attitude when it comes to Politics. Why? maybe because its been killed by our politicians themselves. Oh well, not even going to bother to post more.

I am not sure about you.. But I certainly think so. They've been upgrading the background and I think Vox is just going to get better and better. Well, I really feel sad having to let it go soon in June when my Gluejuice site is up. Such a shame really.

Well, its been some time since I last wrote something so I will probably do an update.

1. Exams are a mere 3 days away. Cramming everything I've got into my head. Still got some parts of my first paper Maths II not settled yet. Trying to finish up my tutorials by tonight and hopefully can do my past year exam papers tomorrow. I guess my prayer is working pretty well. I asked that God may take away all my fears and anxiety. At least I still feel pretty calm so thats good. Not that I am not worried and slacking, but rather, I have assurance that God is with me.

2. If you don't already know me, I'm not someone who can sit at the same spot doing the same thing day in and day out. Not too sure why also. Guess its just me and the way I am made. As I stay at a certain spot doing my work, over time, I will loose productivity. I really wonder what will happen next time when I have to work in an office. I can't possibly keep changing seats would I?

Currently I've shifted to my Bro's room to study. I've got a full 30 inches of screen space with my new setup of a LCD beside my laptop. Its really cool and I can do alot more things on my comp at one go.

3. I've been considering this for quite a long time, and for those who I've asked, I think they're getting rather impatient with me. Please pardon my constant questioning! Haha.. And so what am I intending of buying? Well, I'm thinking of getting a DSLR camera. Why DSLR? Simple. Its probably the only thing that can provide you with pristine images without bothering about having too much noise. Initially I was eyeing either a Canon S3is or a Panasonic FZ8. Those two are super-zoom cameras but after much thought and checking out the reviews and sample pictures, I believe these prosumers just can't compete with the real DSLRs. After running through some checks and talking to many, I've settled my eyes on a Nikon D70s. Instead of getting a brand new one, I will get a Second hand. Its alot cheaper at a price of about 700+ and its kit lens seem rather okay. As for the S3is and FZ8, they're retailing brand new at 600+. So a D70s just a little more, but yet offering alot more at the same time. I have put up an ad on Clubsnap so I am praying that God will provide.

4. I just contacted Ben today to help me do up some T-shirt designs. I believe his really up to the job and has some wicked cool stuff to unleash. Though he may be still schooling and all, I think this bro of mine has got what it takes. So i'm trusting him to cook up a few designs for Scary Bikes. Since i'm on the topic of this, well, I will do some advertisement for him. Check out his Deviantart account and blog.

I will share some of his designs once we start production of the shirts. Really looking forward to seeing them.

5. Ruffles with chopsticks. Pepsi. Red Bull. This last week has been one crazy one for me. 2-3 hours of sleep per night and really mad amounts of work to finish up. Test on my last week of school and insane lecturers not finishing up their stuff till last minute. Well that sums it all. Err, ruffles with chopsticks? Yeah, I eat ruffles with chopsticks just like fries with forks. Don't liek to dirty my hands. Pepsi - I didn't appreciate Pepsi till lately. I seem to enjoy the extra fizzy feel and definitely the sugar rush. Red Bull? Thats staple.

6. How coincidental.. the number coincides. Great. 6 more chapters to go and 3 more pass year papers. Watch me become supernatural.

7. Saw a blurdie hilarious video. Check it out. I've actually watched the Hossan Leong original one on Mr Brown, but i've got to say the animations are pretty slick.

Thats all for now. I actually have some pictures to upload, but since its going to take up time, I shall not do so. So.. just imagine what I wrote. Let the imagination begin.

I happened to chanced upon this easy listening CD. Its by Jack Johnson. Nice acoustic guitar stuff.

It costs S$9.95 from Gramaphone. Highly recommended.
