So we're into the sixth version of my blog after the last version hung around for a year or so.
Now, a bit of info on this image. This photo was taken one lovely spring afternoon, featuring the iconic Old Well from the UNC Chapel Hill campus. I would like to think of this image as a tribute to my time in UNC Chapel Hill, the awesome friends I made and the memories I now hold dear.
A milestone in my life indeed.
I've dropped the tagboard cos its useless and taking eons to load. But thanks to Angela who helped me set it up, I still do like and will miss the pink interface.
So yeah, it's the sixth one you fellas!
Yours.

My aunt then explained to me that it has been a tradition going around Sunset Way for years. Houses that stuck a candy on their mailboxes mean "Welcome in", and houses that don't mean "Do not disturb". Or just a polite way to say "F**k off you irritating kids".
There were at least a couple hundred of kids all dressed up and wandering from house to house. The gals can look really scary. The guys, they just wanna be cool.
I saw a young Australian boy going around as a flasher. What a laugh. Clad in his swimming trunks, he wore a dracular's robe and flashed his way through the estate.
I guess the feeling was totally un-Singapore like. The ang moh families had their doors and gates wide open and offered us pizza and drinks. Cola for the kids, beer for the young adults. And boy did they adorn their house to Halloween perfection. Jack-O'-Lanterns were all around.
By the end of the whole episode, I had in my possession: one Mamee, some sweets, a packet of chewing gums, tonnes of Hershey's kisses (see how good i am at this, selective), a slight headache from the cans of beer, new friends and a good time.
All in all, a fitting finale to an otherwise stinky week.
It's all Saints' day tomorrow.

Hey Blogger...
How did you get your blog to be so good? Originally I was out trying to locate surf board related information, but your post ' this post ' got my attention and stopped me in my tracks :) Glad I found you because I'm trying to improve my site about surf board and your blog here gave me some excellent ideas. Thanks Blogger for the good read and I think I'll mention your blog to my cousin (if that's okay...)
Keep up your effort ~ and good job.
Well, is there something a little weird going on here? I don't know about you Blogger, but my blog gets pretty cluttered with spammy comments from people. My advice to you as one blog owner to another, is to be patient and focus on the great things about having a blog, instead of all the junk that goes on. You do have a quality blog and appears that you enjoy it. My favorite web project so far is a new surf board site, because I have total control and it makes me a couple dollars here and there. It's pretty hard to find new information on new surf board stuff though. Hey, keep up your excellent job Blogger, and good luck with your projects..
See ya ~

My advice to you as one blog owner to another, is to be patient and focus on the great things about having a blog, instead of all the junk that goes on. You do have a quality blog and appears that you enjoy it. My favorite web project so far is a used surfboards site, because I have total control and it makes me a couple dollars here and there.

Well Blogger, quality blogging comes from people who put the energy into their blog like you have. It was a nice change to land on your blog, lots of others are junked up with useless comments and information. I put a lot of energy into my surf board site, so it does pretty well with surf board stuff. I think I'll re-create my blog because I like what you've done here and want mine to be more like yours. Thanks for the lesson in good bloggin. You get a special bookmark :)
have a fantastic day..
Great post Blogger, without blogs like yours I would be miserable and bored. My recent injury has me cooped up at home, so it's always lucky to find a gem like your blog here to keep me amused. My used surfboard website is getting better but it's hard to find information on used surfboard stuff, so I like learning from quality blogs like yours because it helps me in my web projects. You do a sweat job my friend. I'll be bookmarking your site in a special place. Will probably tell a friend too.
Nice work ~
