Dance like no one's watching

The Lima syndrome is the opposite of the Stockholm syndrome.  Rather than the captives becoming submissive, the Lima Syndrome is when captors exhibit signs of becoming more sympathetic to the plight and needs of their hostages. HD will be back on Sat night.  ETA 11:55pm.  Guess Hilda will be going home soon.  Sigh.  I miss Hilda already.  Sigh.  […]

Ok.  This is a public announcement.  I need help getting season parking at Raffles Place.  After enjoying 1.5 weeks of free parking at Equity Plaza courtesy of HD, now i think i want to drive to work!  The convenience is unbelievable.  😛 The problem is, most of the buildings at Raffles Place only allow tenants […]

Stockholm syndrome is a psychological response sometimes seen in an abducted hostage, in which the hostage can show signs of having feelings of loyalty to the hostage-taker, regardless of the danger (or at least risk) in which the hostage has been placed.  The syndrome is named after the Norrmalmstorg robbery of Kreditbanken at Norrmalmstorg, Stockholm, […]

This song kept playing in my mind today – Que Sera Sera… especially the chorus: Que Sera, Sera,Whatever will be, will beThe future’s not ours, to seeQue Sera, SeraWhat will be, will be. While at Eon Canteen, boss said my MSN chat windows are very distracting… apparently he gets distracted by them.  Strange.  Perhaps i’ve […]

Having studied Literature before, i am fond of dissecting sentences and exploring what they really mean. I like the statement “without hope or agenda” from the movie Love Actually because it’s such a simple sentence but yet it speaks volumes. To have no hope means to have no future because as long as there’s a […]

Back in Singapore.  Ho Chi Minh was nice… crazy traffic, great service standards, horrible weather… list goes on.  Will have to save photos and details for another night.  Tired now… sick too (cold, bad bad sore throat)… and i need to work tomorrow. A lot of things on my mind now… a problematic case that […]

1:05pm.  Handphone rings. Me: Yes Boss? Boss: Hey, i’m doing the binding process for XXXX client.  Anything else that needs to be done? Me: That should be all boss.  The new UT deal will be next week… DB can ring the underwriter tonight if need be? Boss: Don’t forget the Terrorism Cover for Pakistan… but […]
