How corrupted is your brain?


Looking at the sign at the back of the van ..... what would be your 1st reaction? Just wondering what the company is dealing with to come out with a logo such as this. Interesting though. =)

This picture was taken at the Spanish steps in Rome, Italy. As the van zipped passed me, was laughing away before trying out a shot at it. Luckily had a good cam which captured the picture quite sharply despite the van being in motion.

Now.... don't be shy, do tell what was the 1st impression of the picture? Shout it out in the tagboard. =)

Hmmm Venice...


Back in hall, forgotten to bring my digi cam so can show a pic of my room. Hopefully can start on FYP by this week. Tutorials are piling up too! Oh well.... step by step then.

Here's another picture of the day, a view within Venice and the famous gondola. There are thousands of bridges there ba, did cross bridges at least a hundred plus times for my 3 day stay there.

Finally started tutorials

Finally started tutorials.... heh. Industrial design. Get to draw some stuff, so not that bad, since i liked drawing. Here's a preview of my work ... hopefully i got the answer right.


Listening to 933 now... quite a long time never done so liao. Quite nice, but tired liao cos quite late. Time to ZZzzzZZzzz .....

but before that, here's a photo from Hungary, taken at the main train station in Budapest, think is the west train station: Keleti Pu. The signboard changes with flapping sounds as the the name plates flips to show the correct destination. Guess which train is the one i am going to board. =)



Haven't sorted out all the photos though, but think sorting out one a day will take me more than 3-4 years time. heh.. the bane of digital photographs. 20 rolls of film is easier to sort out for my Europe trip back in 2002.

the best sign i seen in Europe

For the trip to Europe, this sign here is the best i have seen. Heh. Couldnt find the actual size sign, so got a smaller one instead in Venice.


Only wonder if the sign says :- STOP ! or ..... no stopping as it crosses out the stop sign indicated by the blackened palm.... hmm ... =)

Anyway, now back in hall 3 in my final year of study in NTU.. and time to start blogging again. =)

Back from Europe =)

Back from Europe after a 20 day trip there. Still rather tired out, both from the tip and jet lag. Unfortuately was unable to update during the trip as internet was hard to come by, not to mention expensive.
Everywhere was nice, although the people in Prague like ... gotten worse? hmmm .. Had lost weight liao.... wonder how much i lost. Must go and weigh myself soon, not to mention have to go develop the fotos too!
Will update again with pictures once i get it transfered to my brother's computer .... my broke down again, this time would be tough to repair... have to troubleshoot card by card, suspect motherboard or hopefully power supply, cos have strange sounds coming out from the system, but couldn't trace it.
Oh well .... at least i have time. =P

My new toy ....


Finally got my digital cam after years of pondering. Decided against a DSLR as i still love the feel of using my FM2. So had gotten a prosumer instead, a canon S3 IS, for shooting candid shots and for posting on the web.

Here's a view of my monitor top, where a bunch a cuties smile at me all the time ... and a coral soft toy at the far right of the picture. heh heh .. forgotten who gave it to me liao.. looks like ... ermm. .. go figure. =)

So would be doing a write up of my trip as previous backpack trip. But this time will upload it whenever possible and wif fotos!! heh heh. Dont think i can upload very often, worse case would be not at all until i come back.

Looking forward to the backpack trip and the new sem .... but 1st .. off to europe in another 3 days. =D

Playing politics ?? it only shows your ugly character

Today was a rather happening day. Politics finally arose after 20 weeks into my IA. An engineer wanted an exhibition for our projects, and wanted us to volunteer. After getting disappointing participation, we now have to email him AND CC to our company supervisor AND our NTU tutor to say that we can't VOLUNTEER for the exhibition.

HECK !! we even have to get our NTU tutor to call him if we can't make it for a meeting... how ridicuous!! We get to use our tutor as secretary??

Me to tutor: "Prof, you have to call one of my engineer in my company to tell him I cannot make it for a meeting. Why you? Cos he SAID so ...."

Like ... too bad MR engineer .... i lost all respect for you liao. To pull strings to get undergrads to work for you??? Find poly students and maybe from SMU ones instead.... but maybe i generalised too much. Its just that the poly student and ONE SMU guy on attachment in the company were too arrogant and manage to piss just about EVERYBODY else in less than 20 mins... woo hoo!!!! An amazing achievement.... DEFINATELY deserves a platinum award for being an ASS !!!

YEAH !!! Finally have idiots to laugh at ..... hopefully she gets kicked .. else the rest are going to suffer. Thank goodness i flying off on holiday soon. An added blessing. =)
