...finally arrives. I meet my one and only 2 and half year old nephew for the first time.
Thanks to ffffound! for the image that sums up the day.

08-07-2008: Three Years of Wedded Bliss

It's been incremental bursts of pure joy. What more can I say...

07-30-2008: Open Air Siesta

...dreaming of cloud 9.

07-20-2008: A Journey Begins...

...for Reqwan & Renisha. Wishing them the very best ahead.

07-12-2008: Happy Birthday!

It's my big day and Singapore seems to be showing some big love :-) I'm super duper happy!!!

05-25-2008: Frozen in Time

From a personal collection of moments in time.

01-01-2008: Happy New Year!

Taken at the stroke of midnight of the new year. Electric light orchestra as seen from my apartment window looking towards Singapore downtown. The first visual of the year.

12-20-2007: Eid Mubarak!

The Eid lunch has set in, the evening walk is almost done and as I wait to cross the road the bug arrives. The real bug!

12-16-2007: Seafood

Another reason to love and live in Singapore. (Taken at the Hougang Block 11 wet market)

12-13-2007: 10 Million Bolivares To Be Won

That was our CEO's take on the fun stuff to be won at our annual office christmas party today. Unfortunately luck had deserted me when the winners were called.

11-01-2007: First Anniversary

As I embark on my second year at McCann, let's hail the Rasta to make it an exciting year ahead!

06-27-2007: A Farewell To Remember

A farewell for our big boss with music by a band called 'That's Life'. That's life!!

06-05-2007: A Star is Born

Rizwin Rafeek (10 Aug 1998 to 5th June 2007)
We will miss you always.

06-02-2007: The Pang of Goodbyes

That depressing moment of goodbyes. A phrase that captures it all. On this day it was the Changi Airport departure hall.

05-17-2007: Night Safari

Glowing elephants and more await you on a one of a kind experience at the Night Safari at the Singapore Zoo. Of course it is a pointless experience if you were fortunate to experience the real African safari (minus the glowing elephants of course!!).

05-14-2007: In Praise of Simplicity

After much deliberation, due to what can be blamed as sheer laziness and lack of clarity on where to focus or start from, I finally decided to take on my favorite topic or area of interest head on, somehow. For now I've put it in a blog format, a medium I've become slowly used to. We'll see where it goes from there.

So without further adieu, welcome to the simple life. A meager attempt to understand simplicity in today's ever complex digitally connected world.

04-24-2007: I'm a Pretty Random Face

The Jaiku screenshot where my profile picture popped up as a pretty random face among a dozen randomly selected Jaiku members. Don't know how often this happens. The chances of finding your picture among their randomly selected faces section. I happened to notice my icon (which is a graphical representation of the face of Ravana - 12th pic in the screenshot above) couple of days back. Anyways, now I can happily claim that I have had my 15 seconds of random Jaiku fame.

04-20-2007: The Chaos of Jabrwoky

This is what my Jabrwoky portal looks like interpreted in a chaos theory inspired graph. Via Websites as Graphs.

02-05-2007: One Year After

Going through my old journal notebooks, I stumbled on to this ticket stub from exactly a year back. On Feb 5th 2006, I had gone and watched the Bollywood flick Rang De Basanti at the Regal cinema in New Brunswick, New Jersey, near my sister's place. A year has passed and my life has moved from one continent to another. But it somehow still feels like yesterday.
