  • 3 Days in Kuala Lumpur: Part 2: Our Flight

    Like I said before, we wound up leaving the house late.  We had planned on being out the door by 9 am, but there were so many last minute things to check over, pack, and rearrange.  We had to put away most of the things in the room, into drawers or the closets, and the…

  • 3 Days in Kuala Lumpur: Part 1: Preparations

    (Someone didn’t want to be left behind!) Getting ready for this trip was a lot easier than most of the other trips we’ve taken, probably because it was short and relatively inexpensive.  We only spent two nights in Kuala Lumpur, so the packing was easy.  We didn’t even pack check-in bags.  We just had two…

  • How Real Are Friends On Social Networks?

    I remember asking myself this question a few times, but not any time recently. When the internet first became popular, and I was delving into the world of AOL chat rooms, the people on the other end of the screen names popping up on my monitor seemed… well, impersonal.  It was always like talking to…

  • Just Acia

    Just Acia is a restaurant located in the Downtown East Mall in Pasir Ris, Singapore. My wife and I went to the mall to meet up with friends we hadn’t seen in months. Singapore is such a small island, but life gets so hectic that we still seem to only find rare opportunities to hang…

  • Twitter Social Games Are Annoying

    Recently I heard of a new social game called Spymaster.  Well, not so much heard of, as much as suffered from.  The game is currently in beta right now, and is something that has been cooked up for Twitter.  I can understand social games on Facebook.  They make sense, because they’re separate and they don’t…

  • The “Kets” (Cats)

    It was brought to my attention that it’s been quite some time since my furry little friends got to sit in the spotlight here on my blog, so this post is dedicated to them! We moved recently, and any move affects not only the owners, but the pets as well. Singapore is an interesting place…

  • Cats Hate Ear Drops

    Like I mentioned in the last post, having cats can be incredibly expensive, especially if they get sick or hurt and start incurring medical bills.  So, you have to be careful about how many you adopt, even if you want to take in every single one you see on the street.  As great as it…

  • Air Conditioning: US vs Singapore & Philippines

    Living in the US, I got accustomed to central air conditioning.  Besides the fact that it’s generally cooler in the US than it is in Singapore, the idea of having your air conditioner on all day long is culturally acceptable in most parts of the country.  The air conditioner is simply set to maintain a…

  • Amigos; Western Food

    When I moved to Asia I knew I was going to be giving up a few things. One of those things was easy access to cow meat. Singapore doesn’t have much in the way of cheap beef, or reasonably priced steaks. Or, so I thought. During my first visit to Singapore in March of 2008…
