    How NOT to write on the web

    ByVanessa Tan 8 August, 2002

    I’ve been looking around for good graduate schools for Law and Mass Communication, and came across the USNews forum which was mentioned in the 2003 grad school guidebook. It was a little frustrating parting with eighteen bucks only to find that there were only a few pages in the guidebook covering the latter subject, so…

    Selling my trade

    ByVanessa Tan 6 August, 2002

    I just received a customer service call from my mobile phone company, SingTel. They usually call me every year to find out how things are … well, this time I was told that my free SMS quota per month has been increased from 300 to 500 for being a customer for two years. That was…

    Pet Shop Toys

    ByVanessa Tan 30 July, 2002

    The concert was all right I guess. I wasn’t terribly impressed by anything because the Boys are getting old and lethargic. They’ve taken in some new blood (guitarists and a female drummer) but I don’t like their new sound. I’m a fan of the 80’s and 90’s, and so was almost everybody else in the…

    wedding hangover?

    ByVanessa Tan 29 July, 2002

    No I didn’t get drunk, but after all that energy spent clinking my chopsticks onto various bowls and glasses*, taking photographs and last but not least, playing for the wedding march, I was rather tired. Congratulations to the happy couple, and may their marriage be a blessed and productive one! >:-) * – clinking was…

    Thursday’s child…

    ByVanessa Tan 25 July, 2002

    The one and only church rehearsal is over. I got to see the groom-to-be skipping down the aisle. I also got to play the piece twice on a decent electric piano … and finally solved my problem of having a page turner who is either a stranger, can’t read scores, or both – by getting…

    Bridal Shower more of a Hen Party

    ByVanessa Tan 25 July, 2002

    Woo hoo! Just came home from Brenda’s (parents-in-law’s) place at Pasir Panjang. The bridal shower began with some dinner – a mix of roast chicken and sushi – and several bottles of champagne. After they were finished, Brenda claimed she was sloshed but we weren’t too sure about that. But before we had time to…

    Bridal showers, summer storms

    ByVanessa Tan 24 July, 2002

    What to get for Brenda’s bridal shower? Up to last night I had no idea what it was about – until her sister called to tell me there was going to be one … today! But the good thing is that I’m back in touch with my old friend and partner in crime, Wanxi. We’re…

    Up and running – with Movable Type

    ByVanessa Tan 22 July, 2002

    Hello all, I’m so pleased with myself. I’ve finally installed my new content management system for my weblogs and other updates. No this isn’t like using a machine gun to kill an ant; it’s a learning experience for me too, and my church’s website may need it for the convenience of updates.
