Personal Update

Public service announcement! Tadaaa, this is Ida:

Ida Photobooth!
Ida is my girlfriend.

Mum
(This is my mum. Don't worry, mum, Ida is nice!)

SHORT CAR!
I like Ida very much. We see here how she demonstrates the relative shortness of a Lamborghini.

Happy Smiley
Ida makes me very happy. :3

Plane
Ida is in Kuching at the moment, while I am at Singapore. She is going to London in September.

Funny Faces!
I no like LDRs. But there is one good thing about them.

Hold Hands
Arrivals are made more awesome by waiting the distance. I am excited to go back to Kuching to be with Ida! I miss her so. <3

Minor Update

So here's a quick update: I have three more exams to go: Narrative, Chemistry and Software Engineering. All due next week.

I've probably failed my calculus exam a second time in a row, this time due to a combination of idiocy, gastritis (or whatever it is; Zakil tells me that it's an odd combination of symptoms that he can't place) and math phobia.

The summer holidays are up soon, which I think of as an excellent opportunity to spend time with loved ones, learn new things (Tornado webservers, anyone?), and work on Pandamian.

Speaking of which, Pandamian's a top five regional finalist for Meltwater's Movers and Shapers competition. The team's flying to Hong Kong on the 17th of May; I'll be missing out on that trip because I'll be back in Kuching on the 15th. But I intend to put in a full week of co-development before coming back.

Will be speaking for a little bit at the Singapore Startup Weekend this Saturday; Meng was really kind when he invited me over to share my experience with Pandamian. Am looking forward to an hour amongst startup-ish people, a free lunch, and then back to studying I go.
