荷兰咯 我热烈地!

I’m bilingual. Sometimes, I switched my Windows input language to Chinese when I was sending out emails in Chinese, and often so I forgot to switch it back to English before I typed some URLs in my browser to visit another site, and that, resulting funny string of Chinese text in my browser’s address bar.

Farewell Note

Dear clients, partners and friends in Singapore,
Some of you may already knew that I’ll be moving out of Singapore in about two weeks time, I’m going to China for good. This notice is to make it official.
First of all this is not a sudden decision, I have planned on it for quite a while; no [...]

Move out sale: Motorola Cable Modem (Maxonline) [SOLD]

This modem became useless after I switched to Singnet’s ADSL. This is not the actual photo (I had to take one from internet as I was too lazy to take out my camera again). But there’s hardly any wear and tear as all it did was sit around the corner.
I bought this for: S$99. Now [...]

I’m [...]

Move out sale: Uncommon Sense by Dr Mel Gill

I bought this book out of impulse after listened to the author’s speech in one of those rah rah shows. Then I realized I couldn’t make much sense out of the book, maybe it’s because the book was written for people who have PhD (and I didn’t mean permanent head damage). Anyway, you can give [...]

Move out sale: The Speed Reading Book by Tony Buzan

I can’t really tell how useful is this book because I didn’t really pick up speed reading eventually, maybe I need to read it again and read it slowly in order to learn the technique…
Anyway, this is written by the same gentleman who invented mind mapping technique.

223 pages. Published in 2000.
I bought this for: [...]
