Undisciplined Children on a Singapore Bus
On Friday afternoon I was on the bus, heading to the MRT station so I could meet my wife for dinner. I was on a single story bus in the standing area, leaning against the padded rest. (For those of you not familiar with Singapore buses, I found the photo at left on Jom Naik…

What Determines A Person’s Worth?
I was thinking about this question because of something that happened earlier today. I woke up briefly in the morning and I thought I heard the maid crying. I’m sick, though, so I rolled over and went back to sleep. Later, I found out that there had been a problem. She had recently bought a…

July 2009 Solar Eclipse in Singapore
I’d been looking forward to this solar eclipse for weeks, ever since I first heard about it. I even took the time to write it down, and enter it as an entry with an alarm in my iPhone’s calendar. I didn’t want to miss it! Last night I went to bed, rather anxious to wake…

“Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince” Review
Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince was definitely the worst film out of the series so far. In fact, it’s the worst movie I’ve seen since that ridiculous thing they called a film and labeled “The X-Files: I Want To Believe”. My first problem with this movie is that it felt entirely disjointed. This…

Typical Movie Experience in Singapore
Going to the movies in Singapore can be an ugly experience if you’re not prepared for it. I’ve often been told by Singaporeans that this is a small island and there isn’t much to do. I’m not sure I can agree with that, since there seems to be quite a lot to do here. There’s…

Spinach Bacon OmuRice From Manpuku
Lunch on Sunday was Spinach Bacon OmuRice from the Manpuku restaurant in Tampines 1. I didn’t remember seeing the stall before and the dishes looked interesting so I thought I’d give it a try. I was later told by a friend that it was added recently. As you can see from the picture, this dish…
