Pokemon hunting @ chinese garden

So many pokestops with lures!


Usual pokemons. 


Super nice bonsai zen garden. 


Zodiac garden and sundial. We occupied the pagoda gym together for 1 min of fame. 


The crowd was incredible. And i knew why. Onix appeared.

Happy national day!

9 aug 2016. Happy hols. Yesterday was the only monday without bluez. My friend jus had to point out that nah, it is the only monday with the bluez postponed to wednesday. Splashing a pail of iced water on me totally. 

Mr brown did the video with the national day song : we can achieve. Achieving catch'em all. Lol. Rallying the whole of singapore to join in the quest of catching more pokemons today?!



Somehow i really love my outdoor blinds. 2 small pieces cost 1600. But it gives me the resort feeling always. Appreciation of the bamboo material. It jus exudes the zen vibes. Shrugs. Sometimes it is jus quiet, as if the whole world stops, other times, baby screams, birds chirp, cars zoom past, some indistinct sounds from afar make me wonder what is happening in the parallel universe. A city so full of activities or hopefully actions. I feel the warmth of the sun. 



The firefly park is suddenly filled with zombies. Walking so slowly and lifelessly with the head looking at the phone in the hand. The phones are all having greenish blue screens. Pple are muttering words like : pidgey again. ratata is here. Omg there is a snorlax! Lets go to the gym. Lets take down that one. Tats practically the convo in the park. Tats life now. 

My plants arent flowering.

Pokemon go reaches singapore 6 Aug 2016


The global craze has finally reached singapore. It is really amazing to see how people congregate at gyms and pokestop especially those with the lure module activated - petals. Like T4, my fren related it to be. 

Indeed creating social problems, with people keep looking at their phones and stopping suddenly to capture a pokemon which suddenly appears in the path. 

The app really has to remind pple to stay alert of their own surroundings. 

Happy playing to me and to all. 
Really like what dad says : 玩物尚志

The last of the previous portfolio


It is such a wow pic. I would be so small as compared mountains and the sky.

Pals thank me for guidance and mentorship. I replied that i have yet attained what i term as mentorship. My expectation of a mentor is someone who is able to bring out the best in the person, guide without imposing his own methods onto others. Not training pple the way u think they should be.  I will let them know if i think ive become one.

Finally the last wifi proj for existing terminals. Long awaited. Kinda missed the system and the team, well but i do not regret, it is the exchange for leaving one. It is a smaller trade off than having to leave the organisation for now. An option ive found for now. The only team, members defined by myself, whom i feel engaged and a sense of belonging with. The fun, the lessons learnt, the quibbles, the late nights, the discussions, the drawings, the conf calls etc. i cant thank them enough for such a wonderful phase in my life. The purpose and meaning and the pure hearts to achieve the common aligned interest. Thereafter, things went downhill. Im actually sorry to fall out of this marathon. But on the positive side, im trying to attempt to pick it up again. I have a choice and i define my destiny, who i want to be. Do not tell me what to do.

Ive again be reminded via a project that the lvl of happiness obtained through success via team work is way above that via individual. The lvl of joy is far beyond individual success. So yes it reminds pple not to keep to themselves and struggle on their own, instead, they shld be leveraging others' experience and knowledge and borrowing their saws. You obviously need an open mind, and non competitive attitude to do. Collaborative spirit is what we are talking about. Seriously why do pple like to try to achieve it themselves? Pride? It is jus very attitude to me. Fear of arrowing pple? It is the art of engaging people so that they do not feel arrowed. But own and willingly step up to assume the role and offer help. They will then feel involved while understanding the intent and purpose of the task. Without feeling being arrowed.


While ive met some who are simply just....seem to be trying their luck (I dont get why mus they do that), Ive met others who are so kind, always looking out for me, always sharing tips, always encouraging and cheering me up. Cute pple. Always make me smile instead of frown. Thank you all, who will always remain in my heart. Like the wifi team. 

Thanks to those who bring smiles to my glum face
