Ad initium

Time's exactly at 5:30 PM when I started writing this initial entry of this blog. I have a lot of ideas in mind at the moment as to what I'll be posting here in the coming days but it was kind of taking me a tough time to get the ball rolling, so to speak. Anyhow, what's best to kick off this one of the millions of blogs on the net trying to etch out a niche but to give a brief description of me, what I do, what I like, and so on.

I am married to a great woman, a father of two wonderful kids, aged 6 and 10, living in the tiny red dot that is Singapore. I work as an IT engineer for a German manufacturing company (yeah, I love my job) doing a bit of travelling across the Asia-Pacific region (and the occasional trips to EU). I love to dabble on new and emerging technologies, specifically in the Microsoft front, to get some sort of a headstart in learning these technologies and be able to utilize these in my day-to-day work. In fact, I will be posting quite a great deal on such topics.

Want more? I love music. I play the guitar and the keyboards. I compose songs (fact is, I wrote one for the wife). I love playing basketball (though I've cut down on this activity lately because of my bum knee and back); you'd catch me shooting hoops at the community center near my place on weekends. I love to cook. And eat! I could go on and on with this, you know.

Let's cut to the chase, there's so much in life to enjoy, to share, and to write about and I cannot wait to start chronicling my adventures!
