I’ve been assigned to yet another project. This one is for a client in Thailand, and the team is rushing to finish the work by June. We’re scheduled to work in Bangkok, but none of us know when. I’m reusing the web framework from the previous project, and I’ve had some challenges with the learning [...]

Software Documentation (or any kind of documentation, for that matter)
I’m currently working on a new project, and one of the first few deliverables is a software specification document. And I realize that I get stuck on documentation not because I don’t know what to put on it, but that I don’t know where to put [...]

I started listening to so-called emo around 2002, when bands like promise ring and the get up kids were playing around the Lawrence area. Surprisingly, back home was a growing underground emo scene, so it wasn’t too bad that i wasn’t really able to go for emo shows in the US anymore after i graduated [...]

Good Friday!!!
The more I think of it, and the more I try to place myself in the context of this relationship.. the more I find out that I’m completely incapable of anything, save that which Christ has done. The week has not been easy and my futile attempts to salvage what I thought I had [...]

Elections are here, and the church has been in fervent prayer and fasting these past few weeks. I’ve benefitted much from it, as God deals with his people first before he deals with the rest. “Deliverance is a process”, was one of the things I’ve been taking from the sermons Ps. Johnson from Ivory Coast [...]

Lent has started, and I’m not really.. well, putting as much focus in prayer and God as I need. The prayer meetings have been wonderful nonetheless, and I’m hopeful for my duller state of affairs. Reverend Johnson from Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire is here to minister to us again, and the last time he was here [...]

- Transit Sessions -
On every workday I get up, I usually don’t have time to spare at home to read the papers or do anything, really. Plus, I generally have a bad sense of personal time management, like the engineer in me (or is it a gender thing?). So while rushing to work, I have [...]

On the contrary, I don’t stay in the office till the wee hours of the morning. It’s just that I forgot to set the timezone from U.S. Pacific to Asia-Kuala Lumpur, which caused the first post to come out dated at 2.47am. But that’s ok.
The week is passing by fast. I feel that I haven’t [...]

first post.
I’m supposed to pick lee lian up from her place at 7.30. A little late, but she said that she was waiting for lai san… and whether that’s an excuse or not, it doesn’t really matter to me, cos I’m mostly ok with picking her up at whatever time. As long as I get [...]
