Recently quite a bit of work to be done, which is good, hope they will come in steadily over the months as well.
And ya, sometime ago, I came across “The Humble Indie Bundle“, It let you decide how much you want to pay for 5 DRM-free multi platform(Windows/Linux/Mac) games.
And so I paid 8USD for the games(I’m a cheapo, i know) and found out most of the games aren’t really what I like(I don’t game much actually), but I really love World of Goo , its the kind of genre of game that I like, relaxing ‘environment’ and yet need to use some brain to solve the thing.
Do check out the trailers and a sample gameplay below. =D
Thats all, who knows when I’ll be updating again, haha.
Cheeky, witty and rather clever, you are the joker of a cat, with a lust for money. And lots of it.
This is taken from a quiz I took in facebook, I really like it la, partly because I always “meow” ppl in msn and the description is quite accurate, hahahaha
Btw recently I getting addicted to exercising(not hardcore la), which is a good thing, hope it will last.
Hope to take the Swissôtel Vertical Marathon(http://www.swissotelverticalmarathon.com/) which is going to be conducted on 22 Nov 09 , anyone wanna do it together too?

This is an example why i loved technology, yesterday I finally make my lazy bone went for a run at tiong bahru park, I ran 6 rounds, thinking it was 400m each, in fact its more of like 810m each. No wonder 2.4km run suddenly feels so long. lol
How did I verify? I took my yellow garmin eTrex GPS, went for a walk around my running route after my school, and wala! I know its 810m.
After I went home and rot for a while, I decided to play with the track log, after 5-10min of trying, I managed to load them into google earth, like the running route of mine at tiong bahru below.
Then I figured I have more tracklogs/waypoint in my gps, which includes my fishing trip and “secret missions” which I shall not reveal here. Its fun to see where you venture before.
Thanks US Mil(for GPS)/Garmin and Google for making it possible!

Was helping my cook dinner yest, somehow I decided to take the picture of the process.
Prep:
Chop TONS of garlic to TONS of chopped garlic
Prep the crab(generally kill it first to prevent being kiap, leave them awhile for them to rest in peace, clean them, cut the kiap kiap out, remove top shell, remove those uneatable parts[gills and stuffs], chop the rest of ‘body’ in half, throw away the ‘back cover’ where they shit, lastly knock the kiap kiap to crack them, so its easier to cook/eat them)
Step 1: Fry TONS of chopped garlic til golden brown(chopped garlic is the main ingredient to bring out the flavor in this dish)
Step 2: Add in the crabs, stir-fry them for a while for the garlic and crab to mix evenly
Step 3: Add Soy Sauce
Step 4: Add White pepper
Step 4: Add MSG(some say not good, i dont care)
Step 5: Stir-fry them abit to mix them well, then add water til almost covering the crabs, then close your lid and slowly let it cook, allowing the flavor to be absorbed by the crab and the flavor of the crab into the sauce. Stir and reposition the crabs once in a while to make sure every part of it get cook.
Step 6: Finally, you will cook til the water almost dry up and become more like a sauce, which is the tastiest part in the dish. Once you reach this stage, its ready to serve!
After being down for close to 3mths, I have finally got myself a webhost, 5GB of space, hosted in Singapore, $8 per month, and if you noticed, my domain is now zhixiong.sg, would think how to better make use of it soon, have been busy with school work recently. And now need to clear some work related stuff also.

Alright, Long time no update
In 2008, I pretty much wasted quite a lot of time since I ORD, didn’t really had income since July, sucking dry my bank account every mt, I dragged and didn’t complete my class 3 too, even when I got my advance theory passed since feb and got fat too.Well, hope “no achivement for the year” is the thing of the past. 1 thing worth remembering in 2008 was my trip to UK,Paris and Rome with my sister,brother and mom, it was my first time travelling so far and somewhere so cold, quite a experience.
Heres my aim in 2009.
1) Lose Weight
2) Get my class 3
3) Score well in sch
4) Learn new skill that could help me in the future
5)More passive income =p and get a good job when I grad, finally no more reason to nua at home =)
6) Vertical Marathon @ Swissotel
7) Reservist and ippt dun come so fast!
Ok, last thing, no more free server from my friend, so probably this site will be down for a couple of days/weeks/months(see how lazy I am) to get it up again.

Just went to eat at vivocity’s 莆田 with my mom, not bad for the price.
- Scallop Crab Meat with Stewed Shark Fin $28
- Chilli Live Mussel(Lala) $9
- Deep Fried Duck With Yam $12
- Fried “Hing Wa” Bee Hoon $8.8
- Chinese Tea($1.20 each) $2.4
Tota: $60.80($0.60 extra is for 2 x Wet Towel, my maths didn’t fail yet)
Its a restaurant inside a food court, thats why its cheaper.
The bee hoon $8.80 is too big for us, the $5 dollar plus should be enough for both of us, I didnt find the bee hoon nice, but My mom want to order, then ok lor, haha, end up we use the “soup” for the lala to eat together with the mee hoon, taste much better, haha
