I avoid talking politics but Najib’s ads and promo tactics are becoming too invasive. From ads on my favorite sites, personalized mailers, to Chinese New Year TV ads, or banners on lamp posts, or his henchmen are sending me SMSes, I’m sick of his face.

Join me at the Evernote Kuala Lumpur User Meetup
I’ve been invited as a speaker to Evernote’s user meetup this March 5th. I’ll be sharing my tips on planning a vacation with Evernote. Also speaking are Matthew Lim and Sara Khong. The event is open to the public but you’ll need to RSVP: www.eventbrite.com/event/4870587057
I wouldn’t consider myself an Evernote power user but I’ve picked up a few tips along the way. I’ve been using them more and more now that Skitch and Penultimate are also integrated into the ecosystem. I’m personally looking forward to the event to learn some tips and meet up with the Evernote people – please come along if you are an Evernote user, or just getting started with it as well!
Finally, I’m experimenting with drawing out my slides Sketchnote style. The “slide” above from my presentation was hand drawn in Penultimate. What do you think?

My first live MMA event – ONE FC 7: Return of Warriors
I’ve been a fan of mixed martial arts (MMA), especially since they began showing UFC matches on FOX. I had heard of ONE FC, an Asian MMA league and when they announced their fight in Stadium Putra on 2 Feb, I jumped and bought tickets for myself and Pei Chyi. (Shhh, Pei Chyi is a fan too )
Stadium Putra decked out for the fight

Adam “Shogun” Kayoom making his entrance
Adam Kayoom dominated Zuli Silawanto with ground and pound and dispatched him with a rear naked choke
The bloodiest match of the night – Krishna had his upper lip torn from heel drops from Davies moments after this picture
Probably my fave match of the night. Great back and forth match and glad with the outcome
Co-main event of the night. Kojima was so excited at his win :D
The main event.. turned out to be a yawn.. :P

Tour of the International Space Station
Maybe not quite Star Trek but very cool to see how real astronauts live and work in space nonetheless.

Gregory’s iPhone contract
Nice list of rules for when I get a smart phone for Zack. Don’t agree completely with all of them but they are good guidelines to form my own. Original page here.
