Alrighty, the shots are out. Once again, my month's limit at flickr is up. Catch the 97 shots that I wasted at the WEBs annual camp at the Scripture Union campsite in Sentosa.It was really impromtu, but I decided to visit these guys at the island when I went to CMPB. That explains the 18 shots at the front of the collection- I was actually trying to find them when I arrived there.Catch the youths

Hey guys. Its a lovely monday morning, did'nt know why, but I sort of woke up suddenly at 9 without a heavy head and feeling the sun on my face. So, thought I wanted to give you some updates in regards to deklare.Had been busy doing up the deklare site for the past few days in the midsts of my external projects. Uploading images from my portfolio and everything business. Its starting to take

And for some reason, I was brought up in a way, I hate or rather, can't bear to reject- be it, projects, people, choices... and if you will, just visualise a tumour hidden somewhere I can't find since childhood, its like an itch inside your head that you can't reach no matter how you scratch, and someone comes up and tell me now my tumour has grown beyond control and already killing me.

Gulping down a cup of caffeine now.I have been through a lot of thought and sleep deprivation regrading deklare's administrative issues and how to actually put this partner into the picture. Its all the regular same old problems that everyone faces when trying to start something up.Did consult some seasoned players on the field and heard the usual terrible folklore. Well, I should open up to

Hey since when did this site become a developer's blog? What the heck is going on? To put it simply, ever since the deklare site was created, it was encoded with an intention of "emphasizing" something bigger. And it has already been dragged on, although some plans are made, nothing concrete has been really done so Benjamin has made used of this site instead to yank and rant on. But that will end

Just a short update on the upcoming developments for deklare. Do bear with me as I blabber on...FINALLY, I will be formally launching my freelance design services real soon with all the free time I am having now. Did drafted out some plans for this day to come like about a thousand years ago and I can say that we have very exciting plans in store for you guys out there that require a different

Hey guess what, I feel really refreshed even at this time with the new formats. Guess its a psychological thing. Okay, lets get to it.Its Japan again. And they are back with great advertising strategies, and this time its for the latest iPod nano which you can pull off. And I mean pulling off nanos, from the walls of the Tokyo Metro.

Okay, great news. I am scraping the whole old format idea. And I am replacing them with another new format! Okay, duh. So, this is something regular you will see in the deklare blog entries starting, today.Every week, I will post entries regarding tech related issues. So, you will see posts with headers which will look like these for geekd (geek deklares) issues:Geekd Issue 4: Apple, FirefoxIt's

I dreamt that I am sitting in front of my computer, doing some html editing and writing a blog entry. And wow, it was so real, it was like some tweaking here and there, and my blog can be viewed on many other browers properly! And I had so much free time I even when to Howie's!Sigh. Its just a dream.

Could'nt sleep tonight. Not sure why, although I have already pop-ed in sleeping pills which usually work about now.So, I sort of diverted my attention to better uses like trying to do some late night html editing on notepad so that the site could be viewed reasonably well through all the browsers. (Haven't tried Safari yet though.) I have been staring at the html codes for so long, if I will

I am munching on some sour cream and onion pringles now while working on this difficult banner. The one you see on the top, is the final. I think I might have done almost a million different versions of it until finally, "that looks pretty."Well, if you're figuring out what is that blue thing? That's a roof.

Opened up that colourful box with big white words, 3.5" USB 2.0 Mobile Storage System and tada...The new external hard disk drive. Sitting there shiny and everything.Made that decision to invite a new family member to my setup when I drained out my notebook's 60GB HDD.

Two brothers, Junlin and Eric Lim has baptised before many of their close friends and family last Sunday back in Covenant EFC! Good for these guys!Well, I happened to bring my camera along that day, so I went forward and took some shots real fast. So fast, there was so much handshake. I am sorry guys, it was really a great disservice to these brothers on their important day.Welcome to amaturish

Okay, here's my version of "One More Thing..." And guess what.New powerbooks G4.If they were to ship in the powerbooks with intel processors next, I might just faint, go into coma, vomit blood on my hp or laugh to death.Well, these machines packed with a price tag of s$2,788 for 12- inch: 1.5GHz, s$3,688 for a 15- inch: 1.67GHz and s$4,588 for a 17 inch one, looks sleeker, has more screen

There some new things you will see here and there in the deklaring benjamin site as I am trying to organise things, like formal and informal entries. I might even break them up into different pages in the times to come, so stay tuned.Meanwhile, we got two new sections up, the Geekd and dPod first issues are up and you can check them out, they're just below this post. Their logo's will be up real

Nope we are not podcasting. But I am going to bring to you some recommendations for the average christian and some survival tips when going into the podcasting world.For those who are new and has nothing about podcasting in their heads, see...

The results of the recent Beijing shootout in September has been uploaded to the side column at "the lives i shot at" go and critise them if you want.There might be some hiccups like the photos kana cut off and stuff, do bear with me, I am working on that now. By the way, thanks to Chewy for visiting. And I will dump a whole lot more in flickr real soon.Cheers.

Hey guys, yup, its one of those days again, when I must take some chocolates. Its like caffine. Haha. Its dark chocolate thursday today so I picked up this particular bar at one of the tidbits store just below my house for 2 bucks. And to my horror, its Morinaga again. Its like the japs have learnt how to pack hypnotism into their chocolates or something.Well, this bar has DARS in huge block

Yup, here's another of the 5 minutes ads. Did I say anything about this anywhere on the deklare blog? Let me see...*dig digNope. (don't ask me where I was digging) Okay, basically, I will play with ps and come out with some ads, or small online posters for friends, family or even for the deklare blog when I have some time off my piles of work. And, I will try to hit the 5 mins mark, just for fun.

(see previous post)And, lucky you, an exclusive peek into the rumoured deklaring studio!"Oops. I'm sorry. Wrong door." Wait. Was that my room? Shucks.(*blink blink) Must be that Beijing trip.

Something you might see here quite soon. Just not sure where to place it. Damn. By the way, the deklare-site might be slow in performance during the night as I may be updating it. Not sure why my deklare-board seems to be failing me, or maybe it just needs to sleep.Go ahead and read all the new entries entered this month and tell me what you think about that particular topic , or just go ahead

For those who is wondering what the heck I am saying, podcasting, (from root words, pod- from "iPod", and casting- from "broadcasting") is new radio. Its where people even like us custom-make and publish pod shows (radio shows)

To all, I regret to inform you that this site will no longer be producing the lame "same old daily life of Benjamin" entries featuring my mundane daily routine life, how I sleep, how I wake up, how I brush my teeth, which direction I pull down my pants and do my stuff... Nah. I don't think anyone would want to know those stuff. So, for all those that find these stuff entertaining, I'm sorry it

Hi guys, I am back here online again crushed underneath piles and unending piles of homework. What funny timing to be back. Well, in Lasalle now, always busy in projects because I am now in a design course and I must say this... I got for myself a toy recently! A Nikon D50...And everyday I am falling (and re-falling?) in love with it again and again or rather with photography. Tried out my new

I survived! Out from the lion's den. Not even a scratch. Emmanuel, the Lord is with me. He is faithful, and had been with me even in the lion's den. I came out of the building, the sun still shining brightly, the breeze past my cheeks... He has never left me. The dreadful consequences of me limping out half- dead after I have fell has not come to pass. "Praise Him." I muttered. (flashback)

Tommorrow I will be visiting a buddhist youth "evangelistic" thingy, no thats not what I meant.I am not changing my faith.(flashback)I was quite flabbergasted to hear of the invitation from one of my long- lost schoolmate(err.. not sure whether a year plus was long..) whom was a freethinker when I knew her about two to three years ago as we were serving the same CCA. She was a persistent one. I

A lot of things happened in my life, so much between the duration of blog-fast that I cannot put it down in words. In all, the Lord has truly impacted my life ever since the day 2rd Feburary 2004. Its Hari Raya Haji again. To me, its a time where I would not be able to see my muslim friends as they will be out at the mosque for a busy day of prayer and even for the sacrifice of the lambs and the

An unidentified object pierced through the surrounding material, wobbly but persistent in its movement, as if desperate, and definately, determined to get to the surface for air. Coercing the blood shot swollen material around it into relinquishing control over the object's own kind. Streaks of unbearable pain was triggered through the exposed nerves and... OUCH! What was that? Look into the

Just imagine this. Just returned from Josh's Bunkers and well, felt rather hungry for a supper, so I was returning home with one packet of Fish and Chips and a Chicken burger in one hand, and some drinks and some snacks to accompany with, during my little feast. Unlocked the metal gates, followed by pressing onto the door handle, ready to charge in any time to display my meal on the table, say "

Its a New Year, New Month, New Day and a Whole New experience. It has been a month since I wrote! Wow! Many things have been happening December 2003 one after the other. Just too fast for me to even stop to ponder... Thai Trip, Soul Survivor 2, YPM Matrix Service, Filming and Publicity, looking for a job... even now, I am in the Navigators Building writing this as I stay here for my CG retreat,

As the enormous metal transport screeched to a stop, my ears produced a shrill fife, which enshrouded the pilot's droning over the plane's annoucement system. Welcome to Bangkok, Thailand. Someone tapped on my shoulder. "Huh? Thailand? Oh okay." As usual, I was oblivious to the itinerary of the supposingly, Leisure trip, in the busy capital of the Land of Similes, well, this is what they

Huh? Over? I stared into the sky blanky, still grabbing tightly onto a pen. I could still feel myself studying but all of a sudden everything ended. "Yeah! LAST PAPER." But my Geography studies with Kelvin, Muntat and the other funny guys in the noisy Grace Sanctuary seemed like it was yesterday. I totally understood why some people thought that the end of O levels was VERY SOON. Well,

Puasa has begun. Syafiq (my Muslim classmate) told me to look out of my window late in the night. If there are homes still with their lights on, those are Muslim families filling their tummies before the sunrise. Its a start of a whole month of fasting for the Muslims even into the 'O' levels, thus respecting my Muslim counterparts, I ate my lunch discreetly. Wait. How about me? Someone asked

Our Chemistry teacher decided to take on a new strategy to deal with his difficult student(s) here in 4E5. A dreadful game called TRUTH OR DARE. Or rather TRUTH AND TRUTH. Mr. Wong stepped right into the classroom suggesting that since its the end of the day and everyone looked so lethargic, why not play a game? And here's where this dreadful game came in. Unknowingly, the dreadful game had

While chatting with a Malay friend, Syed, online and listening to a touching Christian CD, all the memories just seemed to flow into my head... the past years in Yusof Ishak... Bad memories exist do, and they are the ones that destroy everything, perhaps they are more impacting? Bad experiences, clashes with the minorities, they leave an impact, like a scar, so deep, so hurting, so impacting I

Went to KFC after church today by Johnny's recommendation to have lunch with a few other brothers. It sounds like a good idea for a lunch fellowship, that is, until I realised I was caught in a heated crossfire of an unplanned agenda, of a brother in church who somehow, somewhat made these brothers a little irritated and unhappy with his attitude towards them. Was attacted to the "topic". Why?

Was overwhelmed with fatigue today, woke up after my long nap feeling weak in the spirit and open to temptations of sin so I decided to take a shower. I just could'nt sit down to study cos my mind is in a whirl. While taking the shower, the Lord showed me my grandma who had been hospitalised 4 weeks ago because she had an accident while at home. She was a faithful sister and servant of the Lord

Lazing around online, supposingly to be a short break from all the tests and exams, well, as usual, clicked onto Kel's blog to take a look, and onto the links to see some of the other colourful blogs, and my computer sounded like a jukebox! Different songs, from different webpages are blasting out of my speakers at the same time! What a remix! "Faith", "Everyday", some thai song on Euphe's

Really amazed by some of the comments, songs, testimonies, personal reflections on Kel and Galv webpages. Just stucked to Galvin's one yesterday looking at his articles and swaying to the song and today to Kel's 'When God Ran' by Phillips, Craig & Dean and reading his wonderful articles, which I also wanted to compose one but, well guess not in the mind to write one now.

Yo, finally back online at the wrong place, wrong time. Monday, i would be having two important papers for my 'O' levels prelims, but still in the September 'holiday' mood. Oh-No!

Memories and flashbacks came right into your face pushing you back on the back of your chair, and just staring into space as I thought about the

Wow. Accompanied by the sound of the drums, heart in my mouth, a reminiscing mind, I marched up to the stage, handed over the scroll with a little marking "IT Club" to the future leader, the exchanged places, stepped down and returned to seat. That marks the end of the "BenjaminRegime" in the Information Technology Club. Today is CCA ROD DAY and that means the abidcation of my post as president

Hey its National Day's Eve, dunno why I am feeling all very patriotic now. Just when you thought that "eh, today half- day ah?" like many of the people I met commented, there is no half day for me :( , due to the SARS crisis in Singapore, my very clever school had postponed its Sports Day to today! I am sure it will be an 'OhNo!' for most of the student officials cos its not just Sports Day today

MORNING. Sent out sms-es to Galvin, Alvin's WGL as well as anyone who sms-ed me about my whereabouts with the message which is of this sort "My brother got into trouble again. Dad very agitated now." with a very troubled and downcast spirit. My Sunday wasn’t the usual happy Sunday. My brother got himself into trouble again. It wasn’t his first time and dad had really given up on him. Nothing.

Realised that I should dedicate my everything to the Lord. One example is this site. It does'nt matter much whether the site was good- looking enough, (not saying that we should not take into consideration the design of the site,) but what really matters, and whats the core purpose of me doing this blog stuff is that I glorify and bring everyday of my life, everything I do, back to the Lord,

Recieved an sms which was pre- warned by Raymond and Josh on Sunday about CG this Friday. The fun part? I have to think of an ice- breaker to warm things up.. AARRHHH!! If I don't have any major exminations or 'O' Levels this year, my mind might have already thought of one witty idea. But now it seems like I am not so "in the mind".

Blogged for 7 days. That almost a week since I first started. Well, I just could'nt find anything to blog. Stared into space for at least 10 mins before I started typing this. Minutes early, a schoolmate which used to be in the same CCA turned up online and started a conversation with me on the instant messenger.

Nice poem, always hung in bro's room, collecting dust, today I took it down, reading it again, I found it very inspirational. TODAY This is the beginning of a New Day. God has given me this day to use as I will. I can waste it, Or grow in its light and be of service to others. But what I do with this day is important because I have exchanged a day of my life for it. When tommorrow comes, today

Always looking forward to Sundays, when I could totally immerse myself into worshipping the Lord and having fun! Went for 9am service as usual, and sermon by Ps. Chung Kai today is about God's Angry Love, very hard to understand if you are a non- christian, as truly, it was oxymoron and the words are rather contridicting when place together, well you can summarise the sermon into three simple
