Letters from the Equator

It’s a Saturday and I had to go to the office. And tomorrow, I have to go to the office again. *sigh*
It wouldn’t have been so bad if my office was in town, but it’s not. Instead, it’s right in the middle of Malaysia’s so-called intelligent and highly underpopulated cyber-desert.
Yes, I am able to ferry [...]

This one’s female. Actually there were two. We gave one away, cos mom didn’t want too many.
Ivy likes to eat lovely meat, chew on slippers and she’s quite a looker. If she was male, I’d call it a handsome dog. But [...]

Age hit me right at about 23, somewhere around September a few years ago. I seriously forgot how old I was, and I had sworn I was 23, when I was 24. Or was it 25? Anyway, it doesn’t matter now.
I just got a dandy gadget that has me divided between two generations. I used [...]

I seldom do food reviews on this blog, but I have to make an exception for this one. Since Baan Khun Li disappeared off the face of the planet recently (that was my favourite haunt for affordable and delicious and authentic Thai food, sob sob), I’ve decided that patronage for affordable and one-of-a-kind eateries can’t [...]

A guy was tailgating me on a suburban mainroad, and I jabbed my brakes to ward him off. I don’t recommend that you should do this, as I now conclude that I will no longer be pulling this stunt off for the duration of my earthly life.

MKLand has promised us Flora residents that the F block shall be ready by next month. I am preparing for that. Both my wife and I are anxious to move into our new home, as well as anxious about the payments we will need to start our life out there on our own.
Everyone has different [...]

8 years ago, I chose to follow Christ not because it made the most sense, nor because it suited my Western-influenced culture, nor because the girl I fell in love with was a Christian, nor because the Christians were friendly, nor because of the cool factor and liberal advantages of certain evangelical lifestyles.

A man was crossing a road one day when a frog called out to him and said: “If you kiss me, I’ll turn into a beautiful princess”.
He bent over, picked up the frog and put it in his pocket. The frog spoke up again and said: “If you kiss me and turn me back into [...]

This song is worth more to me than a million tracks played on Hitz.fm today
Easier Than LoveSwitchfoot
Sex is currencyShe sells cars,She sells magazinesAddictive bittersweet, clap your hands,with the hopeless nicotines
Everyone’s a lost romantic,Since our love became a kissing showEveryone’s a Casanova,Come and pass me the mistletoe
Everyone’s been scared to death of dying here alone
She is [...]

I’m tired and sleepy, but I don’t want to sleep. I feel that I’ve lost all my personal time which I really wanted to have for the past 3 weeks. And now I’m having withdrawal. While I was at it, I thought about whether there is such a thing as personal time. I haven’t brought [...]
