Felix Ker's blog

It’s 9.15: Felix is microwaving the piece of beef.

9.17: Rocks. We’ve got the iTunes blasting on Creative speakers. People dining chit-chatting and a couple infront of the television playing on the XBox. The beef is done. Pizza time for me.

9.21: tongpui haz a go at Felix’s blog. upload.

9.41: We got the same thing happening here and there. Nothing new. Li Zhen is hot and Julia says she’s pretty. We agreed.

Somewhere around 10pm: Wendy and Wenwei left for home, along with the exchanged gifts.

around 15 mins later: Li Zhen and Samuel left too. I’m sure they brought gifts home too!

10.36: Before I get drunk, we’ve got the log cake served. Most of the people are watching “A lot like love”.

23.03: I spoke to Aslin on phone. Desmond is on phone with her now. Disappointing that she’s not here. According to her, she has Merelda and Angeline with her. She got angry when I told her I mixed her up with Angeline.

23.12: Charmaine said that all we’re missing out is music.

I’m editing this after the party coz at somewhere after 12pm, I didn’t get tipsy, but I fell asleep. Ha. Thats what alcohol did to me.

Anyway,  just to add on:

• Thanks Desmond for organising, paying so much and doing it so well! Next time let’s divide the cost. HAHAHAHA (NEXT TIME!)
• Thanks Shu Hua for baking such choco-rich muffins! <3
• Thanks whoever who bought a book for me. Please identify yourself. I love the genrel; Management/Self-improvement.
• Thanks to all the photographers.
• Thanks to everyone who was there! Without you (not only Desmond, although he’s the ‘mastermind’), the party won’t be a success!

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!

When I was 12… (2000) Passing my Primary School Leaving Examinations (PSLE) seems easy. Jumping and playing everyday was what I did.

When I was 13… (2001) I entered Casino de Genting. It was a big deal since the legal age to enter is 21. I’m still 20, note.

When I was 16… (2004) Ordinary “O” Levels seemed harder. But I still passed. And I started to work. Yes, spending time in office/factory.

When I was 18… (2006) I thought I wanted to club, but until now, I’ve yet to club.

I’m 20 now. I’ve achieved nothing.

I want to club. I want to turn 21 to enter a Casino legally in Malaysia. I want to own a house. I want to own a car. I want to finish my degree program and start working. I want lots of money. I want to get engaged in a serious relationship.

There’s a hell lot more I want.

It’s 2009 soon. What can I achieve? What can you achieve?

Thank you and goodbye, Sandy. You’ll be missed by lots of us out there. I miss the days I sent you individual emails containing multiple appointments!

I hope you’ll be back soon to serve us.

To all of you out there with bad time management, do consider using any calendar/appointments system online such as rememberthemilk or google calendar. I’ve definitely remembered more dates with them.

On Friday, December 19, 2008, Values of n (and our web services, I want Sandy and Stikkit) went offline. You can read the full announcement here.

We’d like to thank everyone who accompanied us on the journey from idea to startup to service: our families and friends, our investors, our cheerleaders, but most of all, our customers. It’s no stretch to say that we were privileged to have the best customers a company could ask for.

It has been an honor to work with you, and we wish you all the best during this holiday season and beyond.

• Singapore: Pay bills, remember. (I nearly got sued)

I recently got invited into Facebook groups like PETITION AGAINST HIGH BUS FARES for POLY STUDENTS and Travel Concession for FULL-TIME SIM Students, a plea for common sense but I didn’t join. What’s the point?

The creators of the groups wrote stuffs like:

It is obviously unfair that SMRT and SBS charge polytechnic students adult fares while JC students only pay 45cents per trip. Are we not of the same age as JC students? Do we NOT travel as much as JC students do? Are our families any better off than theirs? The general answer is NO, Polytechnic students are in fact just average students. Yes, there are elder students who are already working and capable of supporting themselves, but they still hold a very much smaller percentage as compared to the young students fresh from secondary school. I do believe SMRT and SBS are smart enough to not make decisions based on stereotyping thinking, and i certainly do believe that they are capable of being fair and unbiased, so i take it this fare difference was due to negligence in decision discussion and making. A higher fare would very directly affect the students’ moods about school, discouraging students from poorer families to continue with their studies. This could impact the Singaporean economy as the majority of people studying go to polytechnics after their O levels, and a high fare would discourage workers from coming back to polytechnics to upgrade themselves.

and ..

I’m sure many of us feel the need to be recognised as full time undergraduate students who deserve concession for public transport too, just as much as our peers in the public universities. I heard even students, if it is indeed true, of LaSalle College of the Arts get approved as tertiary students who deserve concession.(Pardon me if I’m wrong) So why not us too?

But you think your voices are heard when you write so much on Facebook? Ministers don’t use Facebook (am I right?).

My suggestions

Riots won’t be allowed in Singapore, so don’t even think about it.

I would suggest we all target our school’s students’ union. Let them voice it for our behalf. If not, what’s the students’ union for? 

If your school’s student union isn’t doing anything about this, write in to your school’s student affairs. Remind them that you’re (we’re) all not rich.

Now I know its not easy, but contact the media. Let the media know that you got a few thousand people here that aren’t happy. (Few thousand for a poly isn’t sufficient. At least find 20% of the school population.) Form a group of 10-30 people first, camp at food courts daily to gather signatures and NRICs/Student ID. Let the media know what you’ve got and that they should voice it for you.

And again if this doesn’t work, go suck thumb.

Oh or if you’ve got a better suggestion, let me know. I completed my 3 years in poly and I know, if they wanted to implement what you suggested, they would have done it years back.

… again, good night.
