It took a while. But here we are, at the dawn of a new beginning!
Back in Singapore!
I have just completed a year of academia in Perth, and am now back in Singapore. Thank goodness for the relatively hot weather in Perth these past few weeks, and the relatively cool, rainy weather we have in Singapore. I recall my last trip back to Singapore in June (Perth's winter) was filled with buckets... Continue Reading →
On Computer Games
I sit in GP3 playing Football Manager 2007. I love this game. And it really gets me involved: I feel stress, real stress, as if what I'm doing actually mattered and whether they won or lost would have real-life consequences.
