Pulau Dayang

I have been so busy. 

This simple diving trip is much needed.

Simple joys of life:

Beautiful : sun, sea, sand.
and of course, a wonderful company.

( I actually 'stole' this pic from a friend's facebook. hee hee)



I have dived at Dayang a number of times, but it never fails to rejuvenate my tired body and mind.


Outlier

I have been sitting on this book for a long long time despite many friends' recommendation. Finally manage to get down to finish this AMAZING book - Outlier !



Malcolm Gladwell explains beautifully a simple yet very important point - how people become successful. This has profound implications in life (and policy-making)

This is a brief introduction.


The chinese has a succinct way of explaining how people become successful - 天时地利人和. This concept is so simple. But Malcolm Gladwell uses superb examples to illustrate this concept in such a convincing way that this book change my perspective of successful people and their path to success.

National Day Celebration and Tiong Bahru Bakery

It has been some time since I blog. Have been really busy. Anyway, here are some pic of my school's National Day celebration. The entire school in red and white.


And balloons!


After the school celebration, a number of colleagues went to this Tiong Bahru Bakery. The pastries there are fantastic!



Here is the directory to this awesome cafe:
