Market

I still owe you guys a Fan Account on the previous Wonder Girls thingy i go, sigh give me awhile alright?

When was the last time anyone of you went to the wet market in Singapore. My guess is long long time ago? It's one of my weekly itenary during the weekends and my favourite part of the day. The slippery floor, smell of raw fish and poultry, shouting and bargaining of stall tenders and customers. Absolutely the Singapore I knew and grew up in, a culture or heritage, soon to be lost.

This wet market survived a late scare by the government, as they attempt to move towards a cleaner and "better" environment and paving way towards more Supermarkets. I was one of the 300 odd residents, who put our signature to say NO to demolishing our few "real and authentic" wet market. Praise the lord for helping us too, the market is still here.

As I returned with breakfast, I saw my mum chatting with a granny, she's just waiting to pay one of the stalls for her purchase and she just lived on the block next to the market. We chat as though we're like old neighbours, bystanders might actually think that we're relatives due to be fluent dialect we conversed in.

The breathe of fresh morning air, accompanied by the stench and noise... It's an experience I'll never forget...

A cam is all i need and time is running out... these will be gone in time to come.

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

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.
