News, events, and other interesting finds

Sometimes, when I communicate with people, I tend to use vague, general words that have a variety of meanings, or can refer to several values.

Here’s a list of what I normally use, and what I could mean by saying them:

  • a while more > 30 mins
  • wait > 5 mins to 1 hour
  • later > it’s in my to-do list and I’ll do it when I like it
  • hold on > 3-5 mins
  • O.K. > I’m 70% ok with it
  • I see > (Just to fill in conversation gaps)
  • okay… > I doubt it / I’m thinking…
  • er… > don’t bother me with this
  • … (nothing said) > I’m thinking / I missed what you said / I’m ignoring you / I’m unhappy / I’m not in the mood

I haven’t blogged for quite awhile, because there wasn’t anything of interest. Until today.

Just now I uploaded my pictures to snapfish.com.sg. Actually I’ve wanted to do that for quite awhile, but only had time today. They are giving away 20 free prints as incentive to join, and I placed an order for some of my pictures, to test the quality of the online service. It takes about 3-4 days for the orders to be delivered. Furthermore, this is a local version of snapfish in Singapore, so it is more reliable.
