Hopefully this site will be revamped

Posted by: Squareface In: Geek Stuff

I’ve earned myself almost 60USD for the month of April via writing short reviews on various things with payperpost. 60USD! It’s ka-chinging in my bank account according to the 30-day probation period, so now I have 50USD resting in its new home in my Singapore bank account, and by the end of this month there’ll [...]

NDP at Marina Bay 2007

Posted by: Squareface In: Singapore

I have never watched Singapore’s National Day Parade live.
The implementation of all Primary 5 kids getting to watch NDP started when I was in Primary 6, so I never even watched any of the previews.
I had preview tickets when I was a participant, though, in 2000 at the Padang. I joined in the Mass Dance, [...]

I’m heading to the capital of China tonight! It’s a 12-hour train ride from Shanghai. When I wake up tomorrow morning I’ll be greeted by…more dust! Hopefully less spitting (due to government control)! Probably more car horns too.
Squareface is taking a weekend trip to Beijing, and will be back to tell you about it on [...]

Unique Bid = Free stuff

Posted by: Squareface In: Sponsored Posts

How Bid4Prizes works is rather interesting — just take a stab at inputting a unique lowest bid (how unique it is very much depends on what comes after the decimal place). Upon entering the site, you can click play to watch a voluptuous woman explain how it works to you.
If I could bid (I can’t, [...]

On VB and TB

Posted by: Squareface In: Campus Life| Fudan

Okay, bad news first. A classmate who is in several of my classes is suspected to be diagnosed with TB (tuberculosis). Everyone from his class has been contacted to go for an X-ray check-up at the school hospital to make sure it hasn’t spread to any of us. I think that was a good move [...]

My new source of comfort

Posted by: Squareface In: Food

Since Shaina keeps nagging at me to quit the popcorn chicken addiction (whilst she’s happily wolfing down her chicken wings), I’ve found a new companion!

Singapore’s Stefanie Sun! Haha, no, it’s not her, nor is it the KFC she’s tempting me with. It’s………..

Lay’s Potato Chips!

And you can’t stop at one (Okay, I think that’s the slogan [...]

Squarefaced.com is a Comment Friday Winner!

Posted by: Squareface In: Geek Stuff

In case you haven’t noticed, my blog is featured on Blog About Your Blog as the Blog of the Week! All I did was leave a comment that Matt had the date wrong on his Comment Friday post, and I get free advertisement for my blog! Advertisement (albeit just for a week) which would have [...]

Of late, this has been my daily dose of happiness.

It’s simply too easy to dial a number and have it delivered to your doorstep piping hot. Home delivery (外卖) from practically any eatery you want is one thing I will definitely miss about Shanghai.
MmmMmmm. *munching* Simply bliss.

Squareface’s Guesthouse

Posted by: Squareface In: Housing

I’m housing 2 guests (an acquaintance and her sister) from tomorrow till Tuesday, and for that I have been cleaning my place for the past 2 days.
I do not exaggerate when I say my house floor is filthy, because the last time it was mopped was when my parents were here. I use the vacuum [...]

Thanks to PayPerPost

Posted by: Squareface In: Geek Stuff| Sponsored Posts

This site will soon no longer incur costs, thanks to PayPerPost.
I first started taking up post opportunities from PayPerPost on 2 April 2007, and I’m glad the wait is not in vain, for I have chalked up 17.50USD in my paypal account, and am waiting for about 50USD more to be rolling in. All this [...]
