Office Warming Party, Bangsar

Wednesday, December 24th, 2008

Just attended our office warming party in Bangsar yesterday. All I can say is, the deco is wonderful. The ID guys from PDI really did a number of that place… and it’s only 80% complete! I can’t take a lot of photos of the interior yesterday because my phone sucks in night shots, but once […]

Heroes Season 3 Finale

Thursday, December 18th, 2008

The. Most. Dissapointing. Episode. Ever.
Yes, I just said it. I have nothing but tears for it. Episode 13 of Heroes Season 3 sums up the horrible ride, where strange things happen with thick whiffs of cliche. So bad that you’d wish Sylar killed Claire and Hiro get turned into a apple pie. Read on for […]

Heroes drinking game

Wednesday, December 17th, 2008

I think we should organize a drinking game when we watch Heroes. Everytime somebody says “Hero” you’ll have to chug one cup of beer.
It’s getting annoying that everybody keeps on saying “Hero” this and “Hero” that. To the point where it becomes lame.
But then… coming from a series that requires complete suspension of logic… that’s […]

Dad’s Novitiate Programme

Tuesday, December 16th, 2008

My dad just got back from the Novitiate programme in a Buddhist temple in Brickfields, which is basically a programme where you become a monk for 2 weeks under the guidance of real monks. Experience the monk’s lifestyle, or lack thereof, and attain enlightenment along the way. Okay, maybe not that dramatic, but my dad […]

My up-coming office

Tuesday, December 16th, 2008

New office! Designed by rockstar architects, styled by holy interior designers and built by mystical dwarves and elves. The union of the brightest minds and the burliest muscles. Ok, that didn’t sound right. But it’s so chic you’ll want to sleep in it.
Pictas!!!!

The view from the front. Nice orange strip. Like a sexy thong.

Behold, the […]

The super coke bottle

Monday, December 15th, 2008

I hate to be anal when it comes to usability, but this coke bottle had just illustrated to me the real cost of not putting any usability into account when delivering your products. Given, it is a problem in QC, but heck, for simplicity’s sake, let’s just generalize it as a usability problem.
The whole idea […]

Survival in Malaysia

Wednesday, December 10th, 2008

After the Bukit Antarabangsa landslide, and after hearing all the horror stories of “rescue” personnel doing everything from looting to watching people die except actually saving them, I’ve compiled a “survival guide” in Malaysia.
Flood
When flood hits your house, here’s what you should do first: TRUST NOBODY. If you see a rescue personnel, quickly dive into […]

My Design

Tuesday, December 9th, 2008

I scribbled this design in Photoshop, getting the image out of my mind.

After that, I asked people of their opinion, and here’s the responses that I get:
 Joey - says:
its about breaking off from being someone that pleases others
Duncan@office says:
adult with fake expression?
Benjamin@ gemalto says:
unmasking/revealing one’s true feelings/identity? what those feelings/identity are is beyond me because […]
