First of, happy mother's day to the mother(s) who read this blog. I know at least one does. Not that I didn't already wish the appropriate ones already, but just in case.So, after some deliberation, I decided on getting some Glaxo Smith Kline (GSK). I don't have much information about their drug patents and the extent of their R&D efforts but I saw that they give a very high dividend yield of

So apparently, my credit card got hacked or something. I was charged with an online purchase from the Apple Store today. USD642.43 worth of stuff.If this wasn't so scary, I'd be laughing at the irony. I don't own anything Apple. The only time I ever made a purchase in the Apple store was to get a pair of batteries for a friend. So blatantly obvious it was a fraudulent charge. I called the credit

Ok. So i started an account on Sunday and transferred some money into it. Apparently it takes FOREVER for the transfer to be authorized as I'm still sitting at $0.00 available spending money... This is aggravating. Since I have to wake up at 4:30 tomorrow morning, I'll just make a brief run through of what I'm gonna get initially.1. Gonna ETF's.

Ok. It's been about a year since the last post. I was contemplating letting this blog die but recent events have led me to think that I will be once again resuming writing. However, it will not really be of the personal story type of blog anymore. I just opened an investment account with Fidelity and I think I will try to use this space to sound my arguments and research into buying/selling

I wish we all had a dog like Francis.And on a more somber note, I am still oscillating between 206-210 lbs nowadays. I think that means I have to re-think my diet. Have to be more conscious of what I eat and more conscientious on how much I eat...

We did a day trip to Kyoto. It was an interesting way to travel. We went there via midnight (1130pm) bus (kinda like a greyhound) to save some cash. It was about 90 USD to go by bus and 145 USD to go by Shinkanse. It was interesting as it was a 6+ hour bus ride and I got to see the highway oases of Japan.It looks like they have a supermart inside this particular one. We stopped twice. Once at

So, after spending 30 of the last 45 days or so on the road, I'm finally at home for some time. I measured my weight and surprisingly enough, I did not gain weight even though I consumed at least 3000 calories worth of DQ blizzards when I was on-site at various jobs. That's a win in my book. So just for the record, I'm at 207 lbs now. That's good news. At this rate, by the time I go home, I think

Up till now, I have had the fortune to not have many loved ones pass away. My grand father passed away in a vehicle accident, I lost a basketball buddy to a hit and run and an army buddy died in college. In all cases, the news of their passing was sudden and shocking, I never got a chance to really say goodbye. By the time I knew, it was too late.I have a friend who was diagnosed with cancer

So I'm on the first full day of vacation and here's the weather outlook for the next week in Tokyo...Well done weather. Well done...

As expected, after the 10+ days away, I'm still at 210 lbs. I must stop eating all those tortilla chips at mexican restaurants.In other news, the London 2012 Olympic mascots have been revealed. I just have 'WTF' on my mind when I see them.They even have their own back story. Metallic one-eyed multi-hued mascot origins!

Well, I've spent most of the last 30 days working on a job site about 600 miles from home. Travel with this frequency is tough. The hotel staff already know me by face and there isn't much to do in small-town America. At least the weather is getting nicer and night shift doesn't really involve bundling up like a yeti anymore.Trying to control my diet here is tough. Portion control is really

Well, after that previous post, I decided to be a little more upbeat. I haven't had the chance to re-weight myself since the last weigh-in as I was traveling and the place I went to didn't have a commercial scale. The ones that they did have would probably treat my body weight as a rounding error.Anyways, so there's good news and bad news this time round. The bad news is that I have succumbed

There is great lip-syncing and the conversation matches the context, one of the best TF2 dubs I've seen.TF2 Man - when Mega Man meets the crew, I wonder how he would fare against the different arsenals of the TF2

The weather up here can be beautiful at times. I like the vast expanse of sky, sun and clouds. It's one of the nice things to see whenever I travel to the less populated areas out here.It's easy to see why people have the urge to eat ice cream in weather like this.Another interesting thing to see when I travel is the 'exotic' names that some of these small towns have. I think this is the 'best'

So I just weighed myself. No change. Still 214 lbs. I started walking my stairs though, so we'll see if that helps in the long run. But with the weather so nice outside nowadays, I feel an almost pathological urge to eat ice cream and laze in the sun... Well, at least I didn't gain any weight whilst traveling.Anyways, if you have facebook, you've probably seen Farmville ads at least once if not

I finally bought a scale. It's one of those electronic scales that can measure to 0.2 pounds. It's also made from tempered glass and can track the weight of 2 users. There was another higher tech version that could measure body fat as well but it wasn't as nice looking, almost 50% more expensive and frankly, I think my body fat measurement will be depressing. The weight is depressing enough as it

So some of you might know that I recently went to Brazil for some work. So here's the pictures and stories I have from that trip.I took the late flight from Chicago to São Paulo and arrived at 10am on a Saturday morning. My first task was to go from the international airport (São Paulo-Guarulhos International Airport) to the domestic airport (Congonhas Airport). To do that, I could either take a

Haha, at this rate, I'm gonna be considered the walking dead.But things have been fairly ok with me so I don't really see the need to post too much. However, the recent financial incidents around the world and back home here deserve some airtime on my blog I think.As we all know, the world is not in the best shape financially speaking. This has translated to high unemployment rates in the states

So some of you guys might have heard that Superbowl XLIV (44) was played yesterday. The result was the New Orleans Saints 31, Indianapolis Colts 17. Not the best of results for the team I supported but at least the Saints were led by a fellow alumni, Drew Brees. So GO PURUDE! WOO!Anyways, since most people don't really know or care about American football, I'm just gonna display the Superbowl

It's been 2 months since my last post and I think it's time I restarted this thing again. I had a rather busy Dec/Jan with work and vacation. So I think I'll just write about a couple of things on my mind this 2010.First of, Happy New Years to everyone out there. Yes, I know it's really belated but better late than never eh?Anyways, the other day, some idiot in my complex damaged the apartment

So I'm currently in the Mid-west doing a start-up. I have spent 30 of the last 36 days here onsite at the Holiday Inn Express. And these are just a couple of things I have observed in that time.1. When you spend 30 days in the same hotel, the staff knows your name. I asked to extend my stay twice this week and both times, the staff just set things up in the computer without asking for my name or

今天我的上司确定了公司要被卖的谣言。最近几个月我们总公司决定要卖我们北美部门。听说我们的竞争者想买我们的公司。如果真的被他们买了的话，我觉得公司会有超大的改变。我们公司文化，风俗一定会换。我对这个件事有点不安。不知道我绿卡的申请程序会不会受影响。加上会不会被逼搬到新的城市。Sianz.Oh well, only time will tell how it goes. I should just aim to get out of this start-up as soon as possible. It's already been 4+ weeks and counting. Ugh. Hopefully I will get out soon.

So the US is now 1.4 trillion dollars in debt. That's a whole lot of money. It's almost 6 times Singapore's estimated 2008 GDP. Most of it is the result of the economic crisis, the Bush era tax cuts and stimulus plan and the Obama stimulus plan. If someone owed that much money, I would imagine they would want to "tighten up" their belts but not the Obama administrationIn light of the fact that

So it's been a really cool year. Summer was more like a warm Spring, with the number of >30°C dagys countable on both hands. It was kinda nice to be able to escape the heat and humidity.

So it's my birthday today. I'm busy with moving and stuff so there wasn't really any celebrations. Just ate some black forest cake my mum bought.But I did decide to try my luck at the Mega Millions since it was a $252 million dollar jackpot. And the draw was gonna be on my birthday as well.I got $27 worth of tickets, but as you can see, only 1 ticket actually won anything. And it was a measly $3

So on my recent trip back home, I was bumped up to business class. There's a huge jump in service and food between business class and economy. It's no wonder that there is a 2:1 price premium on business class, but after getting the kind of service I did, I'm definitely gonna try to upgrade myself every time I get enough points.It's nice!As you can see, they provide you with a power connection.

Interesting read about how the world of High Frequency Trades operate. It sounds like it there's a lot of megabucks and serious computing power involved in major transactions around the world.No wonder the small fries don't really stand a chance.

So I have some catching up to do.1. Happy Father's Day to all the Dad's out there. You guys probably deserve the attention more than one day a year for all the good jobs you do.2. It's the official start of Summer! Hopefully, this will mean that there will be more "summer-like" weather than weird, crazy April weather.

I'm starting to think of local food everytime I go for a meal now. The loh mee, the vegetarian bee hoon... I can almost taste them. It's been more almost 15 months since I've been home and I'm totally looking forward to my first major vacation this year.I think I could use the break. Although things are starting to get busy here, a break will do me good. 最近自分の生活はあまりよくいかなかった。どんの理由があっても、自分が直したい。。。

Interesting new Xbox Live ad. Quite un-Microsoft like I think. But it's good.And for some bummer news, Congress is starting to talk about taxing online sales. Again. I hope it doesn't come to fruition although with Chicago having the highest sales tax in the USA (11.25%!!!), uniformity of sales tax might actually mean that I need to pay less... Then again, I'd rather not pay it at all.

Taken from NASA's X-ray Observatory, this is actually the death of a star. The blue rays are X-rays emitted as a star loses energy and collapses onto itself. It takes 150 years to traverse from the base of the palm to the tip of the longest finger. And it happened 17,000 years ago. That's the awesome thing about astronomy, it's a study of stars and our past. Due to the limit of the speed of light

Yeah! The 400 dollar tax rebates should be kicking in this month. Which means I get another $40 bucks take home pay per month. Woo!! That should be enough for a stag party back home.

So I was at a job site when someone told me this story.He is a person who is in-charge of doing projects for a huge multi-million dollar company. His most recent project involves the overall of some process equipment to the tune of a few hundred million.His story was as follows: About 5-10 years ago, this company had outsourced the maintenance of their railcars to independent contractors.

So, I haven't posted in about 3 weeks. Lots of things, well some things, happened in the meantime and I was lazy/busy with other stuff to post. But anyways, here's a quick recap.1. I went to Houston for a week. Pictures will be posted tomorrow. But Texas in winter is a good place to be. It was the 2nd week of March, Chicago was just starting to thaw out (low 40oF's/5oC's) but it was already in

At least in the game I attended like Saturday. The one and only time his Houston Rockets played in Chicago, and he had a bad game... Figures. And I had paid good money for the tickets too. At least the Bulls' inflatable mascots kept cracking me up.Like this dude for example. I have no idea who/what he is but a 10' tall red plastic bull bouncing around is hilarious.

今天我公司的head office裁了45个人。也就是说大约25%的人员。 这45个人当中，我认识一两个人。今天和他们MSN时，有点奇怪的感觉。想说几句安慰的话可是又担心自己会被裁。。。 下个星期，大老板会做公司Q2-Q4的经济估计，真希望有好的评估。否则的话，有可能我公司也会裁员。。。Till this is resolved, no large purchases for me. I will also change my internet from Com-I Suck You Dry-Cast to another carrier so I can get their new subscriber discount...

Yeah, so I had a long absence from posting. I think my motivation just tanked this month for some reason. Busy with work, new achievement pack for Team Fortress 2 and just a general malaise I think...But anyways, I'm back and starting to write shit again.

So, after the first 2 weeks of the year, how are my resolutions holding up? Let's review.1. Lose 2 lbs per month.a. Weight - There's a problem here in accuracy of the scale. I read 225 but I think it's dubious as weight varies according to the time of day I measure. But I'll call it maintain for now.b. Exercise - I have been more or less exercising ~5x a week. A bit behind my ideals but still

For the first time since Nov, my house is silent at night. After I came home from sending my mum off, there was no activity but mine... I think that will take awhile to get use to again.I'd like to say thanks to my mum for taking care of me whilst I was recovering from surgery. It was fun.And here's a funny flash Transformers video I came about whilst surfing youtube for Lucky Star

To answer Kenneth's question in the shoutbox, I think that for the time being, an ETF or index fund will give me the best value for money. Why?1. Diversification for cheap. By investing into ETFs or index funds, I'm investing into a whole basket of different stocks (albeit small slices of different stocks). If I wanted to cover the same kind of ranges with individual stock, I would have to spend

With my last post, I mentioned that index funds are good for small capital investors like me. I recently read up about Exchange Traded Funds (ETF) which are similar to index funds in that they also track an index and do not look to out-perform the market.So which is better for my money? Index funds or ETFs? I'll use this post to try to analyze their pros and cons.Firstly, the similarities - Both

So to speak, if you can excuse the pun.I need a new way to do cardio. I had bought an indoor bike but the damn thing is so loud and the floors of my apartment are paper thin. I can't continue using it if I don't want my downstairs neighbour to kill me in my sleep... I was thinking that since it's soo damn cold outside, I would prefer an indoor cardio.

So I was surfing around and came across this website that showed license plates that got pass the US Department of Motor Vehicle censors. I think this shows that there is NO-ONE in the DMV that understands modern culture or can visualize what a license plate will look like. Either that, or someone there has a weird sense of humour. Most of these pics are NSFW.

But with the first post of 2009, I will want to set out some of my goals for this year and review 08 for me.I think 2008 was quite interesting for my career. It marked an evolution in my career as I started taking on more responsibility for start-ups and projects. I was the point man for the company for the one major start-up in Mar. I started to

I hope everyone had a great year and lets strive to do better in 09!I'm going to California to end the year off and to escape the ridiculously harsh winter weather up here.

After starting to learn the guitar, I had wanted to try my hand at composing my own song. It wasn't very successful because I couldn't come up with proper lyrics.However, one should always try to improve oneself so after seeing this vid, I feel re-energized to come up with something that will reach this quality.Such gems like "Nintendo got it right.

We've probably all heard about that half a million newly unemployed US workers in Nov 08. That brought the unemployment rate in the US to 6.7%. Unfortunately, that's probably understating the number of jobless people in the US."Unemployed" is defined by the US Dept of Labour as Persons are classified as unemployed if they do not have a job, have actively looked for work in the prior 4 weeks, and

I had a discussion with a friend the other day about the pros and cons of investing, with then evolved into a discussion about how to be content in life. I think that everyone has their own individual path to contentment, but that's not the topic of this post.What I do want to talk about is setting financial goals. Now that I actually have spending power and have some savings, I think I want to

So it's the end of the year and X'mas is coming around the corner. I was listening to the radio station the other day and they played Jingle Bell Rock by Billy Idol. It's pretty cool and so I decided with a year's worth of practice, maybe I could try to play it as well.Looking at the tab, you have to play on the 14,15 and 17th frets... Since I have an accoustic guitar, it means me fingers have to

Lotion. My squeaky sneakers are squeaky no more! All thanks to lotion. I put lotion around the orthothetic sole and now it's only the tchak tchak of my crutches that gives away my coming and goings.So it was definitely not Jeff Dunham style lotion. No SIREE.

I started work today and hobbling around on crutches is not the easiest thing to do. At least the building has an elevator. I remember back in JC where I had to climb stairs to get to class in crutches! At least I had an excuse for being late back then. Now I kinda feel like that crocodile from Peter Pan. Whenever I move about, there's that distinct Tchak Tchak noise of crutches. Anyone can tell

Here are a couple of nuggets I have found just surfing the net in my bed-idle time.Looks like the LIBOR rate is FINALLY dropping down. Hopefully this means not just optimism at the changing of the guard of the USA

So by this time tomorrow, I fully expect to be in bed with at least 3inches of sterile wrap around my knee. I'm going in for an ACL recon tomorrow morning, hopefully, this will be last time they cut up that knee again. 4 times before the age of 80 is 4 times too many already.6 weeks in crutches means a shutdown in the holiday season. The forced inactivity whilst everyone else is planning parties

Today's post will be a PSA.If you ever encounter someone who's suffering from heart failure or has just gone unconscious and have the balls to try to perform CPR on them, just remember - "Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk,Im a womans man: no time to talk..."Apparently research shows that Stayin Alive by the Bee Gees is the almost perfect rhythm for doing chest compressions.

Makes for a pretty neat MTV. And so many chixorz...But then you have to contend with DRM. After the Spore DRM fiasco, I wonder how it will finally turn out for EA.

最近我的朋友请我到他的组屋的人的派对。我认为这应该是好机会较新朋友所以答应了。可是我忽略了一点。一件很大的东西：这派对是印尼人举办的。除了我以外，其他人都会讲印尼话。。。 真是有点尴尬。。。 食物非常好吃，可是95%的对话我听不懂。。。 而且主持人不会讲中文，把我的名念成“姐姐”。。。发誓下次我会自我介绍为“JJ"。。。 幸亏有好心人故意用英文跟我聊天。 可是现在就有点矛盾-下次应该不应该再回去呢？ 我一生中这是第二次发生这种情形。第一次是韩国人。那更惨。那一餐，我只说了两句话。。。If it were you, what would you do? Any suggestions?And on a brighter note, I finally have a break through in Fukai Mori by Do As Infinity! The tab is

As we know it. On the 10th of Sept 2008, at 730GMT (130 CST) the Large Hadron Collider will power up. Although I'm no physicist, I think it will definitely help us understand the make-up of the world better. The LHC will basically accelerate particles around in a huge underground chamber at near absolute zero and at near light speeds. What happens when these particles smash into one another is

So I had a weird, weird dream last night. I can't remember the setting very well, but it was one of those older Chinese street settings you see on 上海滩 and the like. I don't remember what I was doing or where I was going, but I remember walking down the streets with a guitar strapped across my back, like how the 2 dudes from 功夫 were carrying their 古镇(At least, I think it was a 古镇). Why wasn't the

A little while back, I posted something about Animal Abuse. I know have the full song and the cartoon that follows it. I present "Cows With Guns".Also, thanks to everyone who wished me Happy Birthday. I had an enjoyable time. Not as good as I would have liked it cos of some technical difficulties, but it was still fantastic nevertheless. Thanks again, you guys rock.

Is the result of being sick the whole weekend. I left my apartment to do laundry and check the mail. That was about it. So in order to prevent boredom from killing, I recorded two songs and found a couple of Olympics related things.Here are a couple of China Basketball Team Themed posters. I found them really hilarious. Courtesy of Chinasmack. I guess the 踢 part of the poster was to keep in theme

So due to an incident sometime back, my housing complex is changing all the old windows (like mine) for newer, more energy efficient ones. Which is great. I didn't like those old ones anyways.However, the stupid installation crew came in, installed the windows, moved my stuff around, dirtied my apartment, FAILED TO REPLACE THE BLINDS AND LEFT MY DOOR UNLOCKED WHEN THEY LEFT!! Stupid Americans.

So yesterday, I left the job site at 6.30am EST to travel 220 miles back to my office. I reach the office at around 9am and then I get a phone call from my boss, informing me that there was trouble at the job site. Great.So at 11am CST, I drive the 220 miles BACK to the job site to investigate what happened. Turned out that the troubles occurred at 4am EST. If they had called me BEFORE I LEFT, it

I was reading a couple of articles about the current financial crisis in the US and the over-riding message I'm getting is that if you are in the IB (Investment Banking) world, you get to play dice with other people's money. You rarely rarely lose.Take big risks and win, you get a fat bonus, take big risks and lose, you lose other people's money AND get bailed out by the government to boot! (

There are many things that irritate people in life. Today, I just saw two things that bugged me. The first was this email I received this morning. What a fucking joke. I didn't really know to laugh or spit at the email. If I ever get another Lenovo again, it will be to beat the fucktards that built one of them.The second thing I encountered today was a case of stupid people. I was at the beach (

For some reason, my TV is fried. I suspect that the power outage during my vacation is the cause of death but now I am faced with a conundrum. I want to get a new LCD TV. My budget is around 350. But I also want a new electronic keyboard (full keys). That's probably gonna run a little higher. Thus the economic question is which should I get?New TV in time for the NBA season? Or an electronic
