Am finding the site generally a bit of a mine field. How do I upload photos or albums, and all the other stuff on the profile page, which I can't remember now cos I'm on this page. I am doing my best to keep up with the "smart techno" generation, but I'm afraid my generation gap is showing. :eek:
Uh-oh. We have competition. Another strip-mall plaza evangelical church has opened its doors just a mile or so down the road. You know, one of those hip, trendy churches with an edgy, nonthreatening name. In fact, that is its name. The Edge.
So now we have The Edge along with Freshwater...
Last week the assistant pastor preached on Baptism. I wasn't there as I had another commitment but I heard about it and I guess it was quite an interesting sermon.
This particular church does not believe in infant baptism but apparently they will baptise children if Pastor is convinced...
Well, the heat wave seems to be over, at least for now. At one point we were one degree hotter than Death Valley (though not for long) and 23 degrees hotter than Las Cruces, New Mexico. The record was 105 WITHOUT factoring in the heat index. The Weather Channel seems to think that this is the...
Our utopia:
The weather is cool at around 50 to 70 degree Fahrenheit (or 10 to 20 or so degree Celsius) around the year, sunny almost all the time, the water is plentiful with no water restrictions in the summer, there are no floods, no earthquakes, the occasional wildfire that is effectively...
Well, is it? It?s something that popped my mind recently. In this day and age there?s a lot of digital stuff going on and less involves actual contact with (excuse the redundancy) actual people.
A few examples
- Recently I read an article about cutting back on the government instated...
In Singapore, we emphasise a little more on technical-based education so much, that we are keeping our Polytechnics from the old British education system, and even expanding them in the past 30 years.
What I am unhappy is, the government restricts university places. For those who are not too...
Cheating ?25 million is not enough for Singapore's largest church to support a pastor's wife career, in vain.
So she released a few albums, all hit #1, but at what cost?
Lavish lifestyle, high-pressure fund raising for all church members, irregular accounts, concentration of power and...
Indeed, after so much issues in my autism group, the two founders of my previous autism support group fell out due to petty disputes.
It is over the insistence of one founder saying, 'some of us, who are in universities and colleges, deserve more support than those with no ability to do...
Well this promises to be an interesting summer and not just because they are predicting record heat (100 degrees F for tomorrow). Even my company is concerned about the heat and telling people to power down equipment and dim lights as much as possible. You can say all you want to about global...
Someone I knew made an observation:
Some group of people live a land where food is so easy to find. You can catch a fish, grab one coconut, harvest one banana and lay down on the sandy beaches, all within the yard of your house, for 1000+ years.
Then a group of people came to the land...
My interests include looking at current and future developments in Singapore (and other countries), and see how we can develop our cities, where more than 50% of the gloabl population lives, to see how can we make our cities more liveable. Zoning is not the solution. The solution would be having...
The other day I was eating lunch in the cafeteria when I overheard a conversation from the table in front of me. This girl was making fun of another employee, talking about her face being "too small". I looked up from my book to see who the speaker was. Well, let me tell you she wasn't any...
As some of you know, I have been taking a break from the Internet and Aspies Central because I developed a problem with my hands. I am still having some problems but not as much thanks to the excellent therapy I have been doing. Back in April I went to a health fair and talked to a man at an...
I not entirely certain I understand friendship either, in the most popular sense, after all were supposed to excuse the behavior of these certain few people and not behave in certain ways with them because we are closer to those people we call friends than we are to the ones we define as...
I needed to write all this down because I'm feeling so crappy and low and I need to just vent because of it all.
I'm so fedup with myself, I just want to be able to make friends and talk to people in a normal way. I see people interacting all the time and it's so easy for them or it seems...
As a member of the JC PDSN community, we face a few challenges.
(1) We do not have employable skills. JCs don't teach them. We are trained to be academics, not employees of a firm. So when we go to the job market even after university, we will lose out to other job entrants who have 'job...
Much has been said and commented on this Singapore-specific issue.
I can only say, this represents the dark side of Aspie and Autie people in Singapore. It made me think about this issue for a few days. I wasn't able to come back here on Aspies Central on the right frame of mind. I am both...
Money is the currency of modeRn life though it isn't the currency of love.
I always hear complaints that he hasn't got enough money to have a girlfriend and a house. I'm also concerned that many of us do indeed worry about having no money left to feed our families even in Singapore...
As a volunteer for those with learning differences, I have confidence that things will work out well for all of us. However, we will first need to accept ourselves before we accept other people like us.
My experience is, in all countries, from Australia, United States to Singapore, what...
