Whether Al Gore is using his movie “An Inconvenient Truth” for his strategy to campaign for the next US presidency is up in the air (he hasn’t said that he’s running in the next election, and he hasn’t completely denied – politicians, eh!). Whatever he decides, go watch this movie. Not to support his … Continue reading Movie: An Inconvenient Truth

That's one big sign… how are you "feeling"?
I was just taking a stroll through the major shopping district in Bangkok (some of you might know it as Siam Square/Centre/Paragon) and, BAM, there's this huge Nokia sign. Cool, but a little freaky… Want to know what other people are "feeling"? Click on the We Feel Fine image and find out… Basically they created … Continue reading That's one big sign… how are you "feeling"?
Follow the white rabbit…
If you have time to kill this weekend, you might want to follow the white rabbit ala The Matrix… a pretty cool and interactive advertising campaign by Volkswagon which will take you through some interesting websites… you can join the adventure at http://www.urbanjunkies.com/adventure/ Or if you don't have the time (for the adventure or to … Continue reading Follow the white rabbit…
Animals lose a friend
Some people might say that Steve Irwin is a crazy SOB with what he does with animals and that it might not be in their best interests… but for all it's worth, I think Steve Irwin was passionate about his work, animals and saving the environment. Irwin dies on Monday. He died doing the thing … Continue reading Animals lose a friend
Who's vain? Not me…
So I've been told that I don't have enough pictures of myself on this blog thing… I guess people must be sick and tired of seeing pictures of landscapes and scenery. How boring can that be, eh? But hey it's hard trying to take pictures of myself when I'm using the person holding the camera. … Continue reading Who's vain? Not me…
Europe allows only 20kg
If you ever want to go to Europe, the first thing I'd recommend you do is check your baggage weight limit. I think ANY flights to Europe will allow you to check in baggages weighing a TOTAL of 20kg (yep, that's the total of the two bags you're allowed to checkin). To make things more … Continue reading Europe allows only 20kg
Computers and courses… (Sigh)
So I've been spending the past week trying to work out all these computer issues at work and at home. First it was red ants finding a home in my computer… don't know why but they just started to find a home in my computer. Luckily I wasn't able to get them out (hopefully all … Continue reading Computers and courses… (Sigh)
Getting back to the routine
Well after what feels like 3 weeks of craziness, I'm slowly getting back to my routine of eat, sleep, work, study, reading… The past week and a bit threw me off my finely-tuned system of getting as much done as possible within a 24-hour period. Not counting my social life (which coincidently enough is almost … Continue reading Getting back to the routine
Coca Cola turns BLAK
Coca Cola introduced a mid-calorie drink supposedly to be healthier than the original. For all the health nuts out there and for the "trendy" 20-somethings who don't want to b e seen as kids hopped up on caffeine with rotting teeth, I think Coke has found a niche market. I thought the US website was … Continue reading Coca Cola turns BLAK
Langauge Barriers
So I've been trying to sign up for various courses in Bangkok, which have been advertised in English, but guess what, when I call or email the people in charge, they tell me the course is in Thai. My Thai isn't that great but it's not that bad either, so I think if I tried … Continue reading Langauge Barriers
