Here's why I quit the gym.

I got bored of the workouts I’m doing at the gym. I started my gym membership along with a PT package. Training with a trainer is much easier as you don’t have to wreck your brains on what to do and how to do. You just follow instructions and try not to die from the training. Hiring a PT is expensive though so I eventually stopped and thought that hey I can make my own way around the gym now. I…

Risk of Joining a Tech Start Up

I took a risk last year, leaving my job of 6 plus years to join a pretty new Tech Start Up. Mainly because there’s a lack of growth opportunities and I’ve been wanting a challenge rather than staying in my comfort zone. Did it work out? Short answer is no. However, I did managed to hit 1 year + 1 month mark before they announce that the investor is pulling out and they are shutting down…

Hello 33

It still haven quite settled in that I’m already in my 30s. I blame covid for making my entry to 30s underwhelming. Is there any difference? Being in my 20s vs being in my 30s? Am I more matured? Do I know what I want? They say 20s is the prime of your life. But I think I’ve spent my 20s searching for a purpose. I didn’t know what to do. But after a decade of searching and experimenting, 30+…

Durian Prime SG

Was invited by Durian Prime SG to try out their durians. They got their durians direct from their own plantation in Malaysia daily. I can’t really enjoy durians at home so I opted for the option to try direct at their outlet at 24A 456 Geylang Road! They pack their durian fresh over at the outlet too! I happened to be there when they made the delivery and it’s one sacred basket of durian per day…

Remembering the feisty little calico, Fenix the cat

The first thing that I need to clarify is that Fenix actual name is Phoenix. But with the influence of Felix the cat, I genuinely thought that my brother is naming her Fenix. 2012 me spelled it correctly but I don’t know why 2013 me started spelling it as Fenix. Well, I did her name justice on the very last paperwork needed. Calico sandwich My family is a no pets household except for the…

New Hobby: Roller Skating

I’ve recently picked up a new hobby which is Roller Skating aka Quad Skating. Me at one of Hi-Roller’s themed night Why Roller Skating? I’m pretty sure that a lot of people are confused by the term roller skating and often thinks that it’s the same as roller blading. It’s pretty much used loosely but roller blades refers to inline skates in particular while roller skating is more for quad…

Block Spam Calls with CallApp!

I’m sure many of you have received tons of scam calls from “DBS Banks”, “Singtel”, “Singpost” and even the “Ministry of Health” these days. The tell tale sign is the immediate heavy Chinese accent and a robotic call machine voice. Although many of us are savvy enough to identify these as scam calls and will not be scammed, it is very annoying to pick up such calls. Especially when we are…

I think I’m going to backtrack to the year 2018 around the time where I went on my very first solo trip to Tokyo which I have yet to blog about. I was lost, unwanted, angry,…
