Ipad wor...

Many Apples fans may have awaited this new product eagerly. The new gadget, Ipad was unveiled last Wednesday… and Apple CEO Steve Jobs called it “magical and revolutionary product”…

This table-style computer weighs about 1.5 pounds and is 0.5 inches thin. It does not have a hardware keyboard, but uses a touchscreen keyboard. With a size slighty smaller than a magazine, this Ipad has a nearly 10-inch multi-touch screen, which is supposedly to be very precise and responsive, and works on any orientation. One certainly doesn’t have to worry about space constraint for photos, movies or music as it is available with a choice of 16GB, 32GB and 64GB of flash storage.

Would you get it once it is launched in about two months’ time?

Recently...

Had been busy after my holiday trip from Phuket…
Time just whizzed past!
Did a business trip at Hanoi last week…
And learnt a new skill over the few days there – to be a goldfish, sleeping without eyes closed
Such skill is difficult to master, and my skill definitely needs to be very much polished
Other than that, I could not quite remember what I did over these few weeks
Must confess I did not keep my fitness level well
Only did a run every Sunday and distance covered was pathetic. Haiz.
Felt tired very easily too, so all I wanted is to rest and be a couch most of the times

On a different note, I can expect more changes to come this year…
How will life be then? Will I rise up to the occasion? Am I adequate?
Heaps of question marks…yet few answers
Perhaps things will only crystallize as time passes by…
For the time being, leaving it aside may jolly well be a wise choice…
*Shrug*...

Manta Ray!




Did 5 days of liveaboard diving at Similan. All other stories aside first, the best part of the diving trip was the upclose encounters with the manta rays on the very last day of our dives. The underwater current was so strong the very first instant moment we caught sight of one of them that all of us were clinging on to a rock or something for our dear life to catch a good view of it. But OMG, they are such gracious creatures!

Such amazing experience! I belive a video should speak more than a million words... :D (but i ought to say that the video quality is not great cos i compressed the file from 300mb to about 6mb..)

Fireworks @ Marina Square




We must be out of our mind yesterday to decide to swing by raffles place area to catch the fireworks! We forgot how crowded it was - we did get a taste of it three years back. Short memory huh.

We did not manage to go anywhere near the Epslanade area. The detour route was frightening, and the crowed did make it any easier. Even the Asia Civilisaton Museum area was swarmed with people! We attempted to get a good spot at Hitachi tower, but all the tall trees blocked the view. Finally, out of final desperation, we quickly headed towards One Raffles Quay to see if  the view could be better. Clock was ticking and we were less than 30mins away from 2010....

Long story short, we did finally manage to squeeze our way to a pretty good spot with many others outside One Raffles Quay area eventually.

Needless to say, the 8min fireworks were totally captivating. Everyone was exclaiming in awe...as you can tell from the above short clip!

Life = fireworks? It is short, but should be as spectacular and breathtaking as it can be?

Brand new year. Time to set some new goals... to be in creation for some better moments for my memory bank...

Have a fantastic 2010, folks!
