It’s been a while since my last blog post, and I admit, I forgot my login password for the site. Hahaha. Nevertheless, with over a year since the pandemic started, it’s clear that the world is still far from the “normal” that we once knew. Is this the new normal? Also, is this the prophesied end of the world we’ve heard so much about since … Continue reading Life in the New Normal 2023
The Formula 1 Singapore Grand Prix lives on and is set to resume on 30 September 2022 – 2 October 2022! The contract to host the race for the next 7 years until 2028 has been inked before Chinese New Year as well! This is probably the best news so far since Covid-19. In fact, this is probably even better news than the opening of … Continue reading Singapore to host the FIA Formula One World Championship until 2028
I was reflecting on 2021 and re-reading my first post of 2021. Back then, I said that I don’t think we’d be out of the woods in 2021 and I wasn’t wrong. 2021 wasn’t as shitty as 2020 for me personally but it just pretty “meh” overall. I was watching the Mayday countdown livestream concert on Youtube last night and I realised that this is … Continue reading Thoughts to Start 2022
To support the local tourism business, the Singapore Government gave all citizens above 18 years old $100 of cash vouchers to spend on local tours, attractions and/or hotels staycation. The cash vouchers had to be utilised and the booked activity had to be completed by 31 December 2021. After a lot of inertia, I finally booked a tour to the Southern Islands of Singapore; namely … Continue reading Southern Islands of Singapore
It has been quite a hiatus I’m taking, but then again, there really isn’t much going on either. The world is still pretty much on a stop/start/standstill-like state. The most exciting thing in my life right now is harvesting vegetables from my containers. Intially, when the fuss about the McDonald’s and BTS collab made the news, I was like, “meh”. I am not a fan … Continue reading The McDonald’s BTS Meal
And just like that, the shitty year that was 2020 is gone. Since it’s now a new year, it should be a new beginning but I don’t feel like it will be the case for 2021. I don’t think we’re out of the woods yet. I was told at the beginning of 2020 that it would be a year of change and damn, change it … Continue reading Thoughts to Start 2021
It’s been a long time coming! To be able to attend a live show in-person again!! I did watched a couple of live online concerts from my beloved Super Junior. I definitely don’t mind the lower ticket prices and not having to long for ages at the toilet. However, it is not the same high when you are watching it alone at home in your … Continue reading Crazy Christmas Fun-raising Concert – Keep the DREAM Alive (2020)

Apple Store Marina Bay Sands opens its door officially to public today, 10 September 2020 from 10:00 AM. In case you are thinking of checking the place out in the next few days/weeks, take note that you’ll have to make an appointment in view of safe distancing … Continue reading Apple Store Marina Bay Sands
Chaidura is back with his second single, “Insect Kill All”; just weeks after garnering a listenership across various countries with the release of his first single “Ante Metus”. “Insect Kill All” is a play on the pronunciation of “Insecure” (geddit?). This is Chaidura’s first attempt at blending emo-rap and hip-hop elements into goth/metal music. The result is a hypnotic synth bass beat intertwined with Chaidura’s baritone … Continue reading Chaidura Is Back With 2nd Single “Insect Kill All”
Introducing: Chaidura, an up and coming independent artist from Singapore. According to Chaidura, “When I started this project, I wanted to be vulnerable and bare my inner soul out to the world. I wanted the name to be personal. Consequently, I found out that “Chai” (part of my given name) meant ‘living’ in Hebrew; a meaning that resonated with me.” “I heard the word ‘Dura’ … Continue reading Introducing: Chaidura
