The Tweet Meet 2011

Hi all, im back from Taiwan, after a week holiday there!

There's just so much to see and eat, so little time. 

Shall write about the trip (Soon..) Hehe.. =)

Anyway, the day after i touched down, i was involved in the Tweet Meet event by Infocomm Accessibility Centre (IAC), whereby volunteers are being tasked to deliver 40 netbooks to the homes of people with disabilities and connect them to the Tweet Meet online community.

The netbook.. 

I was being partnered by the cute and cheerful Ryna (http://www.rynaque.com/), who guided me along of what to do, as i was overseas during the week. 

Bacially, we need to deliver the netbooks to over the their homes, and then help them to set up some social media platforms, like Twitter, Facebook and Skype.

Ryna, was interacting and making friends with them.. while i help to do the setting up.. 

After which, we introduced them to Twitter, and Facebook. The fun part was the Skype programme, whereby we called in to an IAC member, as it was also the first time i use skype to do a video call! HAHA! We learn together..! =)

A screen shot of us! 

Although the tiredness and lack of sleep, i am still very happy to see the big smile from the two of them..

It was a fulfilling experience, and hope they are happy with the new netbook, and can make more friends through the social media platforms we introduced. =)

The mum and the brothers were very nice and made us souvenirs!

How sweet? =)

Support the Nothing Less project at http://www.iacentre.org.sg/ too!

Thank you!

Taiwan, here i come!

Sorry i have not been very active lately..

Anyway, by the time this post is being posted i might be on the plane,

我爱台妹 台妹爱我 
对我来说林志玲算什么

Football: Singapore to return to Malaysia Cup!

Goal Goal Goal.. Ole Ole Ole~

Was reading the news article from Channel News Asia:  Football: Singapore to return to Malaysia Cup from 2012!

Will we have a chance to hold the Malaysia Cup like what Fandi Ahmad did, many years ago? ?



Suddenly all the familiar names of :
Abbas Saad, Fandi Ahmad, Lim Tong Hai (the super tall defender!!), David Lee(Our goalie..!), Mohd Rafi Ali, Nazri Nasir, Malek Awab, Steven Tan (small in size, but fast!) flashes across my mind!

Introducing, The Singapore Dream Team Song.. dated all the way in 1993.


The many great goals we scored..


Can we have this kind of passion/enthusiasm to our Singapore Soccer, back?

Ole Ole Ole Ole~

The Fun Pack Song of NDP..

I saw people posting the song on Facebook..
Still have not seen it until now.

And then i suddenly realized, it will be out of the show!! (As according to the Channel News Asia article..)
Anyway, for people who still have not seen it, here's an animated version.



And this guy, also made it funny too.


"It's the fun pack pack
Let's have the fun pack...

It's the fun pack pack
Let's have the fun pack...

You can wave it, if you feel like it
Let's wave the flag
Wave wave wave
Let's wave the flag

Take out your light stick, it's two of a kind
It's interactive, means you can join
Just pretend
Oh oh oh...

I want new water and a wonderful drink
You and me let's share a bit
I want a biscuit and I want a sweet
You and me, Let's share this treat
Kopi O o o o o o o
Time for the fun pack song
Kopi O o o o o o o
We like the fun pack song

Let's start with the bag
That's right, vacuum pack
It's the fun pack pack
Let's have the fun pack

I want new water and a wonderful drink
You and me let's share a bit
I want a biscuit and I want a sweet
You and me, Let's share this treat
Kopi O o o o o o o
Time for the fun pack song
Kopi O o o o o o o
We like the fun pack song

Let's start with the bag
That's right, vacuum pack

米桶空了。 Rice Barrel is empty.

Today my mum told me: 米桶空了。
In English, it means: the Rice Barrel is empty.

In modern times (like now), the first thing we think of is: Just go supermarket and buy, lah.... right?
To me, it meant otherwise.

However, did you actually know how rice come about?



Anyway, when the rice barrel is empty, to me it's like the family having no money.
Scary much...

Just like the rice barrel must be full during the Chinese New Year period, it should be full always.

Don't you agree?

Play game, and train.

Was reading blogs of friends, and one post (from Yellow Splat) caught my attention..
The tittle was really interesting..

The title was: Angry Birds on Google Chrome

Although it was on Google Chrome, it was fine with playing on Firefox too!
=)



Go to : http://chrome.angrybirds.com/ to play!

And i think this game can be used to train the future soldiers of Singapore, as now recruits doing Basic Military Training (BMT) will be issued with an ipad !

Wow!!

So much better life than me, from last time.

Anyway, the Singapore guys sure will love this video from Mr Brown!
LOL!!



4G soldier of the SAF, Huat ah!!!

A busy week..

It was a busy week.

A new director came into the work place, and it was meeting, after meeting.
Last night it ended 9pm.
My bird brain was overloaded with information. (LOL)

Anyway, have you registered for the Standard Chartered Marathon Run 2011?
I signed up the 10km one this year. Still not that confident to do a 21km, yet. HAHA!

Marathon fans, the website to register is: HERE

I have one in September and this standchart run in December.

Keep fit, Hong Wei.



May this picture keep you motivated.
HAHA! =P

Life, Leaving, Friends always.

Although i left the company during November last year,i am still missing the wonderful colleagues and friends.

They were always supporting and great people to work with, if not for the sudden "buy over" by another company, i guess i will still be there, working.

Anyway recently, i been hearing many of them leaving (like me too) and heading to a new place. Even my ex Boss sms me, telling me she's leaving too!

I had my bumpy journey after i left too, things were never the same after i left..therefore i am wishing them all the best too!

Whatever it is, i sure hope we will always keep in touch with each other, everyone being happy and great health always. =]

Let's treat it as: we "graduated" from that work place.

The Only Constant In Life Is Change.

It's been two years, how are you ?

Hi Michael, it's been 2 years on Earth.
Many of us are missing you here.
How are you doing over the other dimension of the world?

Two years ago, during this day, i was in the hospital accompanying my grandma for her checkup, and saw the news of your death over the TV.

I also posted about your leaving on my blog too, did you happened to read that?

Anyway, just to update you, Earth has been rather sick lately, with earthquakes and tsunami in Japan, which caused the melting and damages of the nuclear plants..
Earthquakes were present in New Zealand also..
Even the volcano in Iceland started erupting too...
And as usual, the weather is still as hot, with temperature rising..

If you see someone at your side who can help, can you please discuss it with him or her??

I hope there will be lesser disasters and everyone is happy with everyone.

I also hope the real reason of you leaving us can be found out soon, and who ever is the culprit must be punished for taking you away from us.



Miss you, MJ.

Mr Popper's Penguins

How many of you out there, like penguins like me too?
Raise your hand! =D

Especially the ones in Madagascar?



"I like to Move it.. Move it.."

Or Happy Feet? 





Anyway, i watch Mr Popper's Penguins last night.
Looking at Jim Carrey movie is enough to make me laugh, now with those cute "penguins" (inverted commas, as they are not real penguins..)




A nice movie, go watch it. =)


And, Happy Father's Day to my Papa, and all Fathers out there! =)

The Habitat-Barclays Bare Your Sole 2011, 18 June 2011

As we are eating that plate of chicken rice, is someone over the other end of the world eating a same plate of chicken rice as you do?

Of course, not!
There are people who are starving, or without food to eat!

Few weeks ago, my friend invited me to join in The Habitat-Barclays Bare Your Sole 2011 event.

It is an barefoot walk event, which is an initiative that lets us all support these children and adults who live in dire conditions, raising much needed funds for projects to improve these people's living conditions by building homes and fighting poverty.


This is my first time taking part in this event, a short 2.5km barefoot walk. Hope for good weather, and of course, raise lots of funds! =)

Before you throw away that plate of food in which you can't finish, THINK.
