The edg[3] ™

8th June 2012, marks the last day of my service to, Hewlett Packard,  Global Business Services Singapore Centre, Accounts Payable None-Inventory, a short 23months stint.


I still remember the days where people asked if moving from Chulia to Harborlink was a cultural shock, moving from the busy fashionable city to the boring country side. Deep within me I said, " I'm a pure full blooded Kampung kid you know? "

A great learning experience at Hewlett Packard, enjoyed every single day of my life. Although there were ups and downs, the blood and sweat, the tears we shed together, I will never forget. Thank you all for being there for and with me.

Tomorrow, or in about 11 odd hours time, I will be back to the god-forsaken place, OneRaffles Quay, also known as ORQ. A place where most people dream and yearn to work in, not for me. I've dreaded this day from the day I accepted the job offer, my only motivation was money, opportunity, ambition and well, my parents' words.

My dad actually questioned if I was going to work everyday and my mum was very worried that I might sink into the comfort level I have with HP that I may never be about to get out and grow further.




Since I've decided to see it through, game face on for tomorrow, you fucking degree holders watch out, I'll still be that laughing kid, but I won't be cracking jokes to make you laugh, maybe I do, but at the end of the day, I swear I'd be the one laughing, hopefully not at you.

About time I get my edge back....


demonic, angelic, satanic... I don't really care.

Can't believe I actually took time to update and maintain our YEI Forum. Never knew I could be this crazy, but I know 1 thing for sure, it's never too late to start? But I'm really, growing too old for this. Ye Eun simply gorgeous! Credit: yeeun-impact.net / yeeun.wordpress.com And I blew up during dinner...
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. Director Product Planning and Marketing Pioneer USA, Chris Walker started visiting multiple online forums, gat...
