Mistakes

“If you have made mistakes, there is always another chance for you. You may have a fresh start any moment you choose, for this thing we call ‘failure’ is not the falling down, but the staying down.”

Mary Pickford, 1892-1979
American Actress

Technorati

Just created a Technorati profile on the Technorati website. In case you did not know this, Technorati is probably one of the largest – if not THE single largest – resource about weblogs in existence.

I wonder if this can have any impact on the amount of traffic to my site??

New photo gallery

The people who made Gallery, a wonderful piece of free photo album that I have been using for the past two years, have, along with a new funky Drupal-based website, just released Gallery 2. This is a much improved version which I have installed since last night, which you can see at the Photos. Well done, guys!

Meaning of success

Some words of motivation, to reach greater heights.

If at first you do succeed, try something harder.

Ann Landers, 1918-2002

Was at the farewell party for a German intern student recently. He had been attached to our lab for close to 6 months and this was his first trip to South East Asia. During the gathering, he mentioned a number of amusing and somewhat memorable incidents of his brief stay in Singapore.

Perhaps because I am already very Singapor-ised, or simply because I am familiar with a number of Chinese dialects, I must admit such incidents rarely happen to me, even from my first days in Singapore. Well, here is one which clearly stuck in my head.
