Wow, moving to wordpress did make this page rather static :) guess you can only have one webpage at any one time! It's nearing my rotation period, currently hunting for a job in the public sector of the government (intro me if you can!). Landlord sold the house so I'll also be moving (tell me if you know of a 5 room flat for 4 person to stay!)

It's Chinese New Year again. Wow, time flies. All the best wishes to you in year 2007. I've launched a separate site (too sentimental about this one) that incorporates Wordpress as the blogging engine. I syndicate it here too as a summary, but more and more of the fresher content will come from there. So do visit: http://wp.jiinjoo.com

TaDa - I've moved xanga into my homepage, hopefully this gives more people to come visit here. Planning to expand more blogs and more content. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!

And then 12 months in Singapore! Time flies when you're not doing something interesting... Better buck up! Just came back from Cheng Du - the city that no one wants to leave.

Rainy days in Singapore, extreme cold weather around the world. Stay Warm! Forces of Sun Shine Unite to dry my cloths!

I have finally got a phone (look to your left) - now you can call me till your hearts content. It has been a month since I started working in SCS. Trying very hard to be content with life for now, will see what happens. Happy fasting to the muslims!

Constantly moving on is really tiring. Looking forward to September where I'll again be in a foreign land (Singapore) because of a promise that was made 5 years ago. I will not forget the lessons I learned in Amazon.com, which is the same lesson I learn everywhere: to love deeply, and to give generously, is the greatest happiness of all.

Education cost going up (but the causeway jam is still there)
As I read Jeremy’s front page report on ST today, I was disturbed by MOE’s decision to raise school fees, even as I can imagine everything else being in its place (the timing of the raise, the amount to raise, the emphasis placed on raising fees only for non-citizens etc.) So here’s the run down of [...]

Are you applying for US universities? Here's my take on US schools.
