My first ever vector images

I have an awful lot of free time at home now, so I learned quite a lot of new things while improving my previous skills, particularly in web development. And now, for the first time ever, I have successfully drawn my first ever vector image using the none other than the pen tool () in [...]

Michael Heart – We Will Not Go Down

I have always believed that the crisis and war in Gaza are more than just a religious conflict. It is a crisis of humanity that warrants the attention and concern of every man and woman who upholds peace as a core value in his heart, regardless of his religion, race, colour, and nationality.

Enjoy your internet, you lucky Malaysians!

We tend to only count our blessings when we lose them, or in my case, about to lose them! Next month God-willing I will be going to Auckland, New Zealand, and like all other excited people who’ll be going to live abroad for a good portion of his next 4 years, I dig up a [...]

While savouring and letting myself enjoy the delight of every single sip of fresh tender coconut water, I discovered a few wonders that we the tropics people may have never [...]

IB results and all that matters

Darn, I wish I could’ve posted this earlier. That server disruption is really a bummer. I would spare you all the drama and suspense of the night when the IB results for the November 2008 session are made available (go to Jon Mah’s for that). Instead, I would just go in straight away. I got [...]

Server disruption

Those who tried to access this website for the last few days or so must have noticed that it was inaccessible, that at times it displays the error message “404 – File not found” and at other times, it displays “Error establishing database connection”. A major server disruption has caused the problem. Every single file [...]

Panoramic Pictures

A few posts ago I wrote a tutorial on how to stitch pictures to make up a wide-angled panoramic picture. Here is kind of a follow-up to that post demonstrating what you can achieve through photo-stitching. These pictures are taken during my recent snorkelling trip in Langkawi.
