Many people are surprised that Munich was bombed extensively, because it certainly doesn't seem so in this beautiful city. The city center is rather small, but there is this special feel to it. Maybe it's the way the streets lead to one another, and how each sights interconnect with each other. The photo in the middle is pork knuckle and 2 potato dumplings.The famous clock tower in MarienplatzThe

Polyball - The biggest Ball in Europe. True to its word, it was a fantastic experience as the whole university was transformed into a ball room magically within a night.Everyone in the group did not know how to ballroom dance except for M, who obnoxiously compelled G to dance with him. It was slightly amusing in a photo where one can spot G using only 3 fingers to touch M's shoulders! I didn't

Yesterday marked the end of the semester, signalling the end of 13 weeks of semester and in any case, if anyone thinks the semester was about weekend road trips, skipping classes, it's a half truth half lie. On the contrary, the picture wasn't too rosy with weekly lab reports (oh the horror with a Turkish nitwit) and also bi-weekly assignments that was close to re-defining the n-u-s experience.

Athenian philosopher Aristotle once said that "Happiness is the end for which human beings are designed."But, it seems that many people are confused about happiness. Sure, we know that it's important, but it's surprising how many people are not happy and how many are looking for happiness in the wrong places. Some of us think

Just a quickie post to let you know that :1. No pictures and even MSN for the time being because I have not figured out whether the library at Goethe permits that.2. The freaking train system in Germany is too complicated for me.3. I visited Amsterdam for one day by myself by taking a train down to Amsterdam Central. Again, the train system is too complicated, and places with weird names didn't

If you want to go JB, never tell anyone to meet you on a Tuesday, 930 at Kranji MRT... really bad bad timing for late-comers, and even especially so for people staying in the extreme east of Singapore. But anyhow, Cindy (Malcolm's gf) had bad diarrhoea, so they were frantically finding for a toilet, note not only a toilet but a clean one! Amusing though. Cindy didn't want to use the MRT's toilet,

Dear Readers, It pains me as much as it pains you, to see the momentum of something so grand, ceasing into nothingness. It pains me even further, seeing the golden red leaves bask in the dwindling light, just as my memory fades into another plane of darkness.

Miss Congeniality with a Twist With the sudden barage of new potential ugly faces on the media, it is little wonder why Dr Woffles Wu, the most famous plastic surgeon in Singapore, has been re-visited now and then by his new and old trusty customers.
