Here’s wishing you a Happy Lunar New Year and a Happy Valentine’s Day!
What an interesting year this is… I was told sometime back that the travel agencies here in Singapore are prepping up a lot because this year’s one of those years where there are lots of long weekends as a public holiday lends either on a Friday or Monday.
Looks like this is the first of the lot!

0 Comments February 7th, 2010 Asher Silent Hill: Shattered Memories. Paul Scanlon. King David, King Saul.
My brother’s a crazy fan of the Silent Hill series, a horror game, and the latest one… Shattered Memories. Is the only one I’ve ever played.
Well… semi-played. My brother wanted me in so I indulged him, he did all of the gameplay while I made the personal choices. Why so? At the end of the game, there’s a psychological profiling of the player.
Every player gets a different profile and if a player tries to do something different in the game, make different choices… the profiling is almost always the same.

Chinese New Year. Internet Marketing. Zombies.
Yes, I think I’m slowly edging towards madness (if I wasn’t already there).
This week it’ll be a mad busy week for me – I’ll be popping by my uncle’s place to help out with the family bakkwa business, it gets crazy every Chinese New Year.
In the midst of that, I’ll be working on my latest Internet Marketing product. So far, it’s a 5 module product and the aim is to complete it by end March.

Forgive me, I have sinned.
At the end of last year, I made a commitment that this year’s going to be an awesome year. It will not be anything like before and this year will be my breakthrough year.
I’m thankful because I’ve made great progress already.
During last year’s gift exchange in Christmas, I received a planner. Which was perfect. And I resolved to write down and record my activities for the day. Thus far, great success. I’ve missed a couple of things I wanted to do but overall, it’s good.
I’ve also managed to successfully work at home via the internet. I’ve been able to make a good income online thus far, plus with the little odd jobs here and there, things have been pretty smooth.

I had an interesting thought of late… well, not really of late, this thought has been brewing around in my head for a while now and I just decided to put it into words.
Ever heard of stories where people discover they’re about to die in 40 days and they start to discover life by doing everything they’ve never tried before? Bungee jumping, skydiving, confessing to that girl, getting laid, trying new foods, travel, give/help more people, seeking forgiveness, et cetera.
Well, they’ve just been given a “Deadline” in their life. So, to turn back the clock a little bit… I had initially thought that “Life Begins With A Deadline” – but thought that it was in its raw state… so I never did use it except in a Twitter post (which I can’t find anymore).

Watch out world – Singapore has a new batch of Firewalkers!
In this post, I’m going to recount the time I spent during Tony Robbins “Unleash The Power Within” 2009 4-day weekend seminar held at Hall 2, Singapore EXPO.
I learned a whole bunch while I was there – watching Tony Robbins teach and helping some people out of their own personal problems LIVE in front of a crowd of 5,000 people from 16 countries. He spoke to and helped a Japanese wife who couldn’t give birth by helping her to see that her happiness does not lie in a child that might never come; another 22-year young Hong Kong woman discovers why she is constantly depressed and over-emotional and how she’s trapped herself into a never ending cycle.

As City Harvest Church (CHC) celebrates it’s 20th Anniversary at the Singapore Indoor Stadium (I absolutely love the tagline by the way), I was once again reminded of my starting days in City Harvest.
This year marks me as a Quarter-Century Young Man As A Decade Old Christian! Meaning – I’ve been in City Harvest for 10 years exactly.

The technical term for blog is web log. Nowadays, a blog can be used for many reasons – it can be personal or meant for business purposes. So it’s interesting (at least it is, to me) how people forget about what it means to blog.
What does it mean? It means…
I know this is kind of redundant but it strikes me as stupid when I ask people for their blog addresses and they shy away… saying they don’t want too many people to know about their life. Why did you start a blog in the first place then? Might as well keep a physical book and write your own diary and hope nobody ever sees it.
Yeah, I understand the importance of privacy… but there’s the option of making posts private. Other than that, just having a blog is like having an open diary where the whole world can see it. It’s therapeutic in a sense that it lets more people know what’s going on in your life and thought life.

It’s only a matter of time… about sooner or later.
For most people.
Dad asked me not too long ago questions that were along the lines of – “When are you going to get attached?”, “You need to get married soon!”, “You’ve not even been with a girl before – don’t make me worry for you!” and stuff like that.
Hey, I were my dad, I’d be asking me the exact same questions too.
Am I asking too much for the kind of girl I want to stick around with? Is that too much to ask? I don’t want to be with some girl just to “try out” (even though lots of people have advised me so).
June 26th, 2009 Asher Michael Jackson has passed on… but he lives forever in digital form and we can celebrate his life.
Here are *my* Top 10 Michael Jackson Songs. They are not in order of preference because they’re all great to me and I believe most people will vote “Thriller” as number 1.
Other than being “King of Pop”, Michael Jackson’s also the “King of Music Television” in my opinion… because they don’t make music videos like these anymore.
*NOTE: Some (or most) of these videos may be disabled by embedding but you can still click on the videos to be brought to the actual video on YouTube and you can watch it there!*
Black Or White: Does the lyrics still apply today? Heck yeah. Even more so.
