Last week Friday was a memorable experience for me. The company I’m working for held a dinner to celebrate Christmas. I know it’s a little bit early, because there will be a lot of people will go on a holiday starting 3rd week of December. Anyway, every year they have different theme and this year theme is “Champion of the Champions” and my department sub theme is “Emperor’s Men”. If you think it in broader scope, then it’s related with […]

Managing social media
“If you don’t know how to manage social media, doesn’t mean not using it is the only option that you have.” This post is my rant about some of my friends who refuses to use social media for example Facebook. Their reason is they don’t want to be “stalked” by certain people. And the reason of my rant is I’m puzzled with some of my special friends thinking; they make me spend more time in sharing photos, announcing events or […]
I’m back!
Celebrating my 300th post! Let’s have a question and answer with myself. Q: Where have you been? A: I’ve been busy with enjoying my life, real life, not the online one. Q: Are you saying that you’re not enjoying your life when you’re actively blogging in the past? A: No, I enjoyed my life that time too. But I have lots of disagreements with life (mostly disappointments) so to think it out loud, I blogged. Q: Hmm.. Can I say […]
Fan Girl talks
On my way home from office today, I had a conversation with one of my colleague. (She is a “die hard” fan of JJ Lin) She knows that Big Bang, a Korea boy band, will come to Singapore. And here are some of QA that I had with her. Q (her): Will you go to airport, to wait there and to greet when they are arrive? A (me): Hmm, maybe no. Unless I have a company. Q: When is their […]
Playing in RPG called life
I wrote several times about playing RPG in the past, because I feel that there are similar traits between those two: You have attributes, i.e. intelligence, agility, strength, etc. You have missions to accomplish. Each of the mission you solved will contribute to your experience. When you reach certain level of experience, your level will be up. The higher your level, the harder for you to accumulate experience. Being in a group will help you to grow more, with guidance […]
Some wild thoughts
– sometimes I miss one thing from my childhood, to be able to fight with your friend then make up as if we didn’t fight at all. – its easier to work when people trust you, but you need to prove it. That means both parties need to understand and compromise each other strength and weakness. However if you think you did your best and you still don’t get what you want. Just see it as, they are not for […]
Welcoming a new century
*it should be decade (thanks to Adi) This morning, I was flipboard-ing and stumble into a very interesting article from smashing magazine. The title was “Your ego is a bad designer“, and even though it’s about web design the author message is actually applicable into broader context. After reading it, somehow it stuck for a while inside my head. I had a thought about this before, and to be honest, I think I still have difficulties in keeping it away. So, […]
To adapt
One of the speakers in a summit I attended today mention: Technology has changed how people interact with each other. In the past, people will exchange contact after met each other when they feel comfortable with each other. But nowadays, people meet online first, when they comfortable they will meet in real world. Don’t you agree with that? What’s your thought?
