Sure, we’re attracting alot of foreign talents, but are we losing our local talents to other countries that give them more than just a sense of security?
After all, this sense of security is very important to the older generation. A secure job, no natural disasters, a safe neighborhood, good education, peaceful lives. I [...]

Why do I feel that the local blogosphere is becoming more and more aunty-fied?
Don’t get me wrong, there’s nothing wrong with behaving like an aunty - if you’re over 40years old, with kids, possibly retired or a housewife, likes hanging out with other women like yourself in your neighbourhood market place or hang-outs like kopitiams, [...]

I was invited to CommunicAsia 2008 by my dear friend and blogger extraordinaire, Sabrina ! Yet another fun filled event!
We arrived at Singapore Expo at 2pm even though the agreed meet up time was at 1.45pm, and yet we’re one of the early ones there! Next time when anyone wants to hold any outing for [...]

If you really need to type your diaries instead of writing them the conventional way, then type your diaries into notepad text files and save it in your computer.
Lately, there [...]

I was talking to Sabrina on the phone, just catching up and bitching -as usual-, when we started to talk about my blog post on banning ShadowFox.
I didn’t realise this before, Sabrina noted that some people might have been provoked by me mentioning that Singapore has no free speech. Some, silly people, might even feel [...]

I would even go as far as to say that this mentality have been drilled [...]

Priss’s reaction to the DK effect:
DK you should be honored you got an effect named after you…. Where’s the “Priss effect”?
Heh. That aside. I left a comment on Ian’s blog with basically my reaction to the “DK effect”
Perhaps naming it the “DK effect” was uncalled for.. since it makes you sound like [...]

I guess many of you took my last post as a joke. Is it really funny?
