We Made It
via youtube.com Boy, has 2011 been a year of change.
Trust No One
via 28.media.tumblr.com Because if something is so difficult and so big that it needs a group to handle it, you will inadvertently find that you can break it down into smaller projects that can be handled by an individual. Clearly the people that came up with the nonsensical concept of problem-based learning and project work, despite having degrees and doctorates in psychology and...
Them Belts
via tinglondon.com Flooring panels made from vintage leather belts. If I had the money to afford this kind of thing I would so tile my study room with them.
The Temple of Lightning
Managed to schedule a trip to a place which holds many memories for me. It’s also one of the few parts of my very short past that haven’t crossed paths with the people I interact with regularly, yet it’s this very place that that both holds me back and keeps me going. If you, then good for you. If you don’t, and if you ask me and I do tell you, then yeah. It’s been...

Kelly Clarkson - Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You)
via youtube.com It doesn’t mean I’m lonely when I’m alone. Or does it?
The Measure
How do you tell if you’re good at something? The measure of ability, after all, is simply a measure of how much more you can provide, comparative to others, in terms of quality or quantity. I think it’s simple. Find the people whom you think are good. Find the people whom everyone concurs are good. Will they work with you, will they work for you, or will you have to work for them?

The 'AGM'
See the full gallery on Posterous Today was possibly one of the most awesome days in the year. First was heading back to office for lunch and the company’s AGM. Think we managed to bring together almost all the staff that were either in Singapore or passing through for winter break. It’s a humbling experience, really, to meet and work with a bunch of people who embody what it...
Tonight I'm Fucking You
via youtube.com I’m keeping this song in mind for an appropriate situation. In particular, the following lines: Here’s the situation Been to every nation Nobody’s ever made me feel the way that you do You know my motivation Given my reputation Please excuse I don’t mean to be rude But tonight I’m fucking you
Ethics
via 30.media.tumblr.com Is exactly what is going through my mind right now, and will probably sprint through it again a million times for the remaining 1 year 4 months of my service. Today my warrant officer came running for help replying to a statement issued by auditors. I did it up for him nicely, and probably saved some part of his ass in the process. It’s not the first time, and...
1Q84
You couldn’t begin to imagine who I am, where I’m going or what I’m about to do. All of you are trapped here. You can’t go anywhere, forward or back. But I’m not like you. I have work to do. I have a mission to accomplish. And so, with your permission, I shall move ahead. - Murakami, 1Q84 So we’ll find out tomorrow exactly what all of this means. The only...
The Real Battlefield 3
via youtube.com Player is operating a fighter jet. Player is in a dog fight. Player can’t seem to shoot down enemy jet. Player climbs, ejects, fires a RPG-7 at enemy plane. Enemy dies. Player falls, re-enters cockpit.
For Good
via youtube.com I am ashamed of myself. These two girls are aged 10 and 13.
Xiao Long Bao
via 27.media.tumblr.com I could eat like, a dozen of these a day and not get sick of them.
That Even All is Nothing
via 24.media.tumblr.com Someone once gave me something very similar to this in a parting letter. I never heard from that person again, but it turns out that that was the last letter she ever got to write.
Hurling Insult
via 29.media.tumblr.com I need to re-purpose this format for use for my 8-5 work.

The Red Square
via 28.media.tumblr.com It looks better when you see it in person.
The Ultimate Hamburger
via youtube.com Modernist Cuisine decided to apply Science to the common hamburger, and they somehow managed to conclude that cooking a beef patty at 53 degrees C for a while, then flash cooling it in liquid nitrogen, followed by flash frying it in hot oil (so termed cryofrying) contributes to the best type of hamburger. Now I actually want to eat one of these, if it doesn’t cost a...

The world seems not the same Though I know nothing has changed It’s all my state of mind I can’t leave it all behind I have to stand up to be stronger [Chorus:] I have to try To break free From the thoughts in my mind Use the time that I have I can say goodbye Have to make it right Have to fight ‘Cause I know in the end it’s worthwhile That the pain that I...
Sukiya
See the full gallery on Posterous So the Sunday brings us to Sukiya at Marina Square. It’s essentially all-you-can-eat shabu-shabu buffet for a reasonable price. Never mind that we were half on crack while eating - I’ll let the pictures do the talking.
TellMe vs Siri
