The End is Nigh!

It's been a scary few days, Firstly typhoon Ketsana tearing into Phillipines and Vietnam, then an 8.0 magnitude earthquake 32m under the ocean caused a tsunami which hit Samoa and reached as far as Japan. Then hours later, another earthquake shakes Indonesia, and the tremors i believe were felt here in Sillypore...

Perhaps there's a pattern to all this, are we really causing our own doom by abusing the environment, or is this all supposed to happen regardless? Well, i for one don't remember the August/September period being so warm and humid before. Heck, i wonder how well prepared we are if a tsunami hits us, just a small one will be disasterous.

EFF 1 Rawks Sillypore!

Ah, it's the F1 weekend here in Singapore! What does this mean? Traffic jams and paying up to a months salary to see a car zip by in less time than it takes to blow your nose!

But really, it's quite fascinating and all, the technicalities behind the sport. I'm no F1 guru myself,; i'm just like most people who are intrigued by this multi-million dollar sport. If not for the fact that is such a 'divatastic' sport; drivers and teams throwing hissy fits every other time, i think F1 should be banned as a sport. It's just an excuse to ask for million dollar sponsorships if you ask me.

Well, our 'great' nation jumped onto this too because why? We don't want to lose out to Country X who actually has a proper racetrack... this is so... typical.

Well, i say for the next F1, but up ERP gantries along the course and let's see how much they chalk up in costs for 61 laps! ;)

Mission : Impossible

Here i am in the Bintan IT office on a saturday morning! Was sent here cos the IT guy here is going back to Jakarta for Hari raya celebrations. Was here in the afternoon yesterday, and will be here till Monday afternoon... woootz!

I'm being put up in the small house near the BT lobby, it's called the "GM's house", but don't let the name fool you! It's nothing as glamourous as the other villas, or even those at Angsana. But the basics are all there... at least there's cable, but no internet... (booooooo!)

Well, wifey will be joining me this afternoon, so won't be TOO boring already! :p

Waves.. ;)

Home Sweet Home!

Ah, back after 3 days in Phuket, was there for a SAP workshop, which turned out quite... enjoyable. :) It was raining quite often there though! :p

Touched down this afternoon at T2, man, is it hot in Singapore or what? Thais are polite ppl, unlike chao Sillyporean with bad atitude and no civic mindedness whatsoever... there is calming effect to Thailand's 'undevelopedness'... perhaps sillypore has gone beyond the point of return... the old man knows that.

Back to topic, the workshop was held over 3 days, of which a few of us were not involved in the first day... so... shopping! Went to canal village.. which was pretty quiet. After the workshop on the 2nd day, a group of us went to Patong to shop at Jungceylon. It's not a crazy crowded place like ION in town, there was SPACE to move about without knocking into some 'New Citizen'.. yay!

Anyway, there's this cool airsoft shop i want to go back to, called 'Megaforce'. Basically you can rent airsoft rifles of all types for a certain duration, 300 baht nets you a semi M4 CQB for 20mins, 500 for 40mins and it's a full auto version... too cool. :)

Well, i DO miss my bed, and things here that are precious to me. Perhaps another trip there again one day! ;)
