Season Opener 2013/2014

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the season opener of the Barclays Premier League 2013/2014 !! As you all know, Football is my RELIGION and hence this moment to many, is as sacred as any other occasions.

The "Stadium". A modest 3 room flat equipped with the Singtel Mio HD setop box, a Bose soundsystem (*vomits* money could've spent better elsewhere) and a Sharp Quattron FullHD 70" LED TV, delivered on the day itself.

This was no thanks to my God Mother, Wen Bin ~ Of course my other mom, her other half, Annie Yeo too!

Dinner was serve before the match, a humble "take-away" Indian "Rojak". Why takeaways? Our yeast couldn't raise our dough for pizza, wasted 3 full packs, WHAHAHHA !!

Maple-syrup glazed chicken wings, 6/10, didn't marinate long enough

The booze, Bacardi Breezer Lime, Hoegarden and my favourite Ginger Beer!!

Our cheese dip in progress

Almost finishing!

Gotta love the size of the TV, while preparing food, superb quality ~

Finito, chips, salsa and cheese dips with grill wings ~ STARTO !!!

GREAT WIN FOR THE REDS !!! Thank god for Mignolet's heroics in the final moments, saving the penalty and the rebound, just look at how much that meant to us.

Won it narrowly by a superb goal from Daniel Sturridge, a few strings of brilliant saves from Asmir Bergovic too, denying us any comfort. A win is a win, I'm happy with 3 full points.

Gotta love my weekends even more now :))

The Pioneer LX55 Bluray Player Review

Pioneer Corporations, once the leading company for Home Theatre Systems, Display and Optical players, began to falter when the likes of Samsung, LG, Sharp etc came into picture with lower end products for the mass consumer. Pioneer, who steer clear form the niche market, producing high end products, fell to it's knees, withdrawing from the TVs market and started a joint venture with Sharp, resulted in absolute catastrophe. Pioneer fanboys nicknamed the products "Sharpioneer" A bold direction, right or wrong, there's too much points to take, although myself would 200% standby their decision to continue with making highend products previously, even though they failed eventually. Anyhow, ever since that catastrophic "Sharpioneer" released, tons of consumers ditched their players within days of purchases, the management finally woke the FUCK UP. Director Product Planning and Marketing Pioneer USA, Chris Walker started visiting multiple online forums, gat...

While caking, someone pop right into my head. Anyway, my top strength is: 1. Ideation: loves associating and providing ideas 2. Command: leadership, loves to put his ideas through 3. Futurist: star-trek 4. Individualisation: view individual base on strength weakness, not stereotyping 5. Learner: keen to learn In short, I'm a futuristic creative open commander! Sounds awesome eh? Strength Finder 2.0 is a book that only concentrate on strengths ($39.00) zero about weaknesses so all you hear are good stuff. ======= Individualisation Anyway back to my caking session. Mr Ibrahim, came to my mind. He was quite a good looking Indian back in my primary school days. I've always tried to protect him though I admit to join in bullying him once in a while. Sometimes he'd come to me "begging" to help him or lend him money with his hands in "praying mode". I took pity of him ever since he did that once and when he told me "All i got is 40cents a day and they sto...

Mid-Life Crisis - Realization

Even before I left Deutsche Bank and embarked on the uncertain journey into SMBC, I had already pondered about what lies ahead and how should I plan my journey around my career. I was comfortable at Deutsche and simply wanted to stay and do the same but at SMBC I had bigger dreams. The role itself had a workplan to provide identity, short term and long term goals the team tries to achieve. I had a blast, learned a lot, the team was almost perfect and we compliment and cover each others' strengths and weaknesses. All good things must come to an end, but I hadn't thought it would begin to end like this, still I was prepared since he tendered last year. I do not really wish to say much, everyone have their priorities and freedom of choice and if they had decided to go, I wish them well. I used to think we should stick through thick and thin and complete the goals and objectives we had set out to achieve before leaving each other on our seperate paths. I used to think that a gentl...
