Catch

A friend sent me this. It’s fairly religion-neutral and not affiliated with any faith in particular. Sometimes, it is necessary to ask ourselves some tough questions, just to shake ourselves out of the comfort zone. After all, if you don’t care enough about the present state of the world in the first place, the questions hold no meaning.

Little time, no time?

How often do we find ourselves running out of time? Is it really time we are short of? Or purpose and passion?

“Never say that you have no time. On the whole it is those who are busiest who can make time for yet more, and those who have more leisure time who refuse to do something when asked. What we lack is not time, but heart.”

Henri Boulard

Design work

Have been busy with a web design project for the past month (on and off) or so, which is why I have not gone ahead with my redesign of the website, or the intended migration. More will be revealed when the project is nearer to completion.

Lessons on the road

The past weekend was a long-weekend in Singapore, because of two ethnic holidays in succession: Deepavali (Hindu) and Hari Raya Puasa (Islam).

I decided to catch up on some exercise by rollerblading at East Coast Park. This is a long stretch of beach with a fairly long bike track (about 20km 1-way) hugging the coastline. Here is a couple of observations I made while on the move.

Colour scheme

Here is a very cool tool which I am using to experiment with different colour schemes: the Color Scheme Generator. Basically this is a web interface that allows you to quickly see various combinations, at different “temperatures”, degree of contrast, and what sort of contrasts, etc. Try it for yourself!
