I will be there.
I have just bought this book 'How to Wow with Flash'. Basically I am attracted to the tips and techniques its offers and the way it is being written in a casual way. I particularly like the chapter by Chris Georgenes where he reveal the techniques he used in his character animations.
I was hoping to get Total Training for Flex 2 too. Its review has been very good so far and the only thing that lies between me and pressing the 'Add to Cart' button is only its $149 price tag. But after hearing the various reviews, I believe its worth the $.
I will be heading to Chengdu for work this friday and will be returning by 1st Oct. Should be spending the free time there reading up more on Flex 2. I am really lagging behind.
I was at Singapore Expo's busstop today. There was heavy rain and it was at the busstop that 2 incidents is happening at the same thing. One reflects the good side of Singaporean and another one is the usual ugly side of them.
First picture I took:
What is he doing? This kind hearted guy is not employed by Expo. He is at the bus stop and he offer to shelter EVERYONE that is getting off the bus! I am quite amaze myself too. Once everyone got off, he make a cheeky smile to his wife and they make their way to Expo.
Now I turn my head to the right. I saw a stupid idoit doing this:
This guy think he owns the road. He is 'on call', but it does not give him the right to stop in the middle of a busy road! Notice the long long jam he created due to his own inconsiderate behaviour. He simply refuse to budge regardless of the amount of honks he got from the vehicles behind. Imagine if a car behind him tries to drive into the middle lane, in such a weather where the road is slippery and the visibility is low, who knows what will happen?? Well he finally move when he saw me taking photos of him. This time I will not display his car plate. Rather than spending millions placing flowers all over the city, I think we should try to educate these drivers instead.
