My Stately Fishbowl: March 2008
http://khooltengman.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 24, 2008. YouTube - "Bustin'": Final Fantasy VII AMV. Sephiroth and gang get busted. Amazing hybrid of two trendsetters. Look for the little cross-references, such as Stay-Puft the Marshmallow Man on the mobile phone screen, and a quote from Minsc on the news ("Think I'm going to need a bigger sword! Saturday, March 22, 2008. Places of note today:. The New Armouries Café/Restaurant in the Tower of London. The White Tower in the Tower of London. Lancaster Gate Tube Station. Ooh, and the wash...

My Stately Fishbowl: October 2008
http://khooltengman.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Wednesday, October 29, 2008. Actually it will have melted by then. Hopefully this snow is a preview of skiing conditions come January! Tuesday, October 28, 2008. Also known as the banded piglet squid. See the photos to understand why. It's too freakin amazing/cool/cute. And you thought the Marshmallow Swine was creative. Thanks to Shi Hsia for the original link to the now-deceased specimen. At the Cabrillo Marine Aquarium. Wednesday, October 22, 2008. Physicists never grow up. To quote the Nature. At 357...

My Stately Fishbowl: Self-organising/self-advertising
http://khooltengman.blogspot.com/2009/01/self-organisingself-advertising.html
Monday, January 19, 2009. Reports that the NY Times picked Penang one of its top 44 destinations. For '09. and 'NY Times Readers' voted Penang the #2 spot. Why the inverted commas? Cos I suspect 70%( -30%) of the voters don't read the NY Times. 6 days prior (t=0hrs): Penang Facebook group admin sends out a call for members to vote for Penang (then in 33rd place). Inference: Penang's #2 position is not due to a representative sample of tourists loving Penang, but instead due to Penangites being kiasu.

My Stately Fishbowl: Happy New Year!
http://khooltengman.blogspot.com/2009/01/happy-new-year.html
Monday, January 26, 2009. We celebrate with a demonstration that every video can be improved by putting a cat in it (although, preferably without captions). YouTube - Interactive LED Coffee Table Demo. Made steamboat tonight, with one side tom yam soup and the other ikan bilis stock. Turned out pretty well, although we were expecting a few more people so a fair bit of food got left behind. The bright side is that there are enough prawns left over for hokkien mee!

My Stately Fishbowl: April 2008
http://khooltengman.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 27, 2008. Well, that's the end of my first year conducting Student Symphony. It's been quite the ride - lots of downs with corresponding ups, and happily I think the ups have the win. We had a mildly nerve-wracking dress rehearsal today, which unfortunately went quite a bit over time (I had. Thursday, April 17, 2008. We're all nerds here. Nothing says Physics pride like a visual gag that requires 3rd year quantum mechanics to comprehend. The front of the shirt involves Dirac notation. Tuesd...

My Stately Fishbowl: August 2008
http://khooltengman.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 31, 2008. So much good music! BBC - Proms - 27 August 2008. Akiko Suwanai plays the UK premiere of Peter Eötvös's violin concerto, Seven. Commemorating the Columbia astronauts, and Vaughan Williams' The Lark Ascending. The latter is amazingly beautiful, and entirely new to me. Can't believe I've never heard it before. Oh, and Akiko Suwanai is cute too. :P. Friday, August 29, 2008. Thursday, August 14, 2008. To the memory of Teoh Cien Yang,. Azure and argent,. You wore them proudly,. More o...

My Stately Fishbowl: May 2008

Friday, May 30, 2008. I saw a caterpillar. That has rather powerful connotations. Yes, it was just one, and it's pretty late in the year. Nonetheless. the caterpillar was pretty strikingly familiar. Here's what it looked like:. WARNING: Somewhat horrific picture*. Hmm, the only other class at Williams to remember it is graduating. I really really hope that we're spared another holocaust of that magnitude at my graduation. I think the invasion lasted from April to June. Wednesday, May 21, 2008. Not that t...

My Stately Fishbowl: July 2008
http://khooltengman.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 30, 2008. Apparently i'm a better spatial thinker than a mathematical thinker than a verbal thinker (really? Than a social thinker (no surprises there). I'm also fairly equal parts artist, philosopher and scientist. However, where I really shine is. Your result for How good of a Calvinball player are you?

Thursday, December 11, 2008. Chemists trump John Swift. So you thought a book about giants and tiny people was a great work of satire. Well, this one isn't satire. but I think it's arguably greater! Then again, actually it's much tinier. Synthesis of Anthropomorphic Molecules: The NanoPutians. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). My nerd score has risen. Thank you college!
