Hello there. I am Terry and I am a full-time undergraduate based in Singapore. I take photos, write a blog and design websites.

And no, I'm not a teddy bear.

Hidden Dangers In Night Market

My parents and I went to Pasar Malam (means ‘Night Market’ in Malay) today evening and found something very dangerous harming every single sole in the market.

Before further evaluating on this thing, let me tell you about an article posted in the newspapers a few days ago. The article is about an explosion of a hydrogen-filled balloon in a wedding held somewhere in Malaysia. Since hydrogen i s aflamable gas, the explosion scalded a few guests, leaving them seriously burned. Floating balloons which are filled with gas lighter than the atmosphere air should only contain helium (a nobel gas, which is not reactive hence does not help in combustion) not hydrogen (a very reactive gas which does not exist as a single element in the Earth’s atmosphere).

Shockingly I found out that the balloons sold in the Night Market here are filled with hydrogen! Helium tanks are painted white with a red flame printed on it while hydrogen tanks are blue ones. The heartless and idiotic balloon seller filled those balloons with HYDROGEN! I see lots of parents buying those dangerous and extreme flamable balloons for their kids!


Killer balloons filled with HYDROGEN sold in public places!

Curse the stupid seller!

Your name is required. Why?

  • So that I can address you personally (which I'm more than happy to do).
  • Everyone loves their name to be called, right? Nobody wants to be referred to as 'a certain someone' or Mr X (X-Men members aside).
  • If your post too much spam, your name will be imprinted on a personalised voodoo doll, completely free of charge. I'm just joking!

Your email is needed. Why?

  • Your email is, and will, never be given out to any third party under any conditions (except for people sneaking up behind me when I'm on WP admin).
  • So that I can contact you personally in case of certain issues that I wish to address personally.
  • If you post too much spam, I'll email the same spam you've posted 10 times back to you, completely free of charge.

You can always leave a personal URL behind

  • It can be anything - most people put their blog URL, their facebook page, their Twitter URL, their MySpace or etc.
  • I give love back by saying NO to no-follow. All of your webbie links are dofollows instead.

Twitter. Twitter. Twitter.

  • What is Twitter?: Twitter is a social networking and micro-blogging service that enables its users to send and read other users' updates known as tweets. Tweets are text-based posts of up to 140 bytes in length.
  • What is my Twitter ID?: To get a Twitter ID, you simply have to sign up for an account at Twitter.com. Your ID will be in the format of your profile's URL - http://twitter.com/[userid].

Hello Easter Egg hunter! You've discovered the magic of the Konami Code!

Yea. You probably know what the Konami code is before getting to this page. So now what? Here is a randomised YouTube video on my favourites list... which includes Rickroll, if you're luck enough to get it.

You are currently watching Goma Mugi Cha - Tea for those with high blood pressure. Loving it? You can even watch the video in its full screen glory :)
