Interchange is not as easy as I thought. Installing it is already quite difficult for me. After its unpacked from its tar.gz compression it’s a good 5MB+. Darn! It has some weird stuff I have never seen before.
Oh ya… thru the process I found out that telnet has security problems, so its better to use SSH instead. Hmm… whatever that means…
This really looks interesting. I think i should spend the next few days playing with it.
This new year eve I did not spend it in church like I have did for the pass few years, but instead I went out with a few good friends, my cousin, my brother and my wife.
We went for supper, drove to orchard, WTC, then ended up at One Fullerton. Bought some drinks and snacks from a mama shop and just sat on a pavement. With no expectations, no commitments, no plans and nothing but good company and a relaxed atmosphere.
Seeing the streets filled with Singaporeans made the festive season feel even more like home. Tertiary youth, bengs and lians, yuppies, families, taxis, foreign labour, people from all races and nationality. When I see this, I’m filled with an indescribable anxiety, a mixture of patriotism, passion, prideful, fear, love, rest, anticipation, peace, excitement and a whole list of other spontaneous feelings and emotions.
There is so much to say, yet I don’t know what I want to say. There is so much I want to know and learn yet I am contented. Lets see what the new year will bring.
Okay… I have been really unproductive for the past month and its time I try to list a few things I want to get done in this new month in the new year.
What do you understand by “having prata”? Some people think its going down to the hawker centre to buy some fried dough and consuming it. But that to me is not really having prata.
Having prata is a happening event, having my wife a few friends, siblings or cousins hanging out together at a nice breezy place having supper and tea. Due to my limited command of descriptive english, I think that’s how I would put it in words… but if you think its just to eat roti prata, then that’s not what I meant.
I’m lazy to explain and I don’t think you want to hear my lengthy concept of what “having prata” really means to me, so I will just ask you if you wanna “have prata”.
This lazy-to-explain and unwillingness-to-listen leads to problems limited only by your imagination.
When a teacher asks a student what is 1 + 1? The student might answer 2, but with an unending inquiring string of “why”, the teacher might have no choice but to try and explain the country’s policy on education and the necessity of propaganda.
After going on about something which I’m not sure if I have put it correctly, I hope you understood what I wanted to say. But then again that might not be what I meant.
