Launching homespace.sg

I know its been awhile since I've last blogged here, coz quite frankly I'm just too busy... In the last three months I've been juggling my thesis with running a startup. Which by all means is no easy feat. I'm very fortunate to have a kick ass team of very talented and energetic people to keep me going... So for anyone out there who still follows this blog, I thought I'd just share what I'm working on.

For home seekers, homespace.sg is a revolutionary Real Estate platform where people can visually shop for homes for sale as compared to going thru lists of ambiguous classified ads and not have a clue where the home is or what's in the vicinity. With homespace.sg you can easily see nearby transportation, shopping malls and schools and actually know how far away they are to the home you're interested in. Putting things on the map also mean, you get to compare homes for sale in the same vicinty to make sure you're getting the best deal!

You're no longer dependent on one agent to give you all your info... homespace.sg allows you to see all that with the click of a mouse, allowing you to make the best possible decision before you actually go and visit the house.

For Real Estate agents, homespace.sg provides Customer Relationship Management tools, an advertising platform, and even their own professional site complete with property portfolio (which typically costs $300-800) all for free, during this promotional period. Check it out and let all your real estate agent friends know as well! :)

its final

went to school to check the maths paper today and it was pretty much a waste of time... i din do too badly.. got some correct and got alot of partial credit... but i cudnt see the marking or how marks were allocated... they only let me see a photocopy of my script without the marks. so i guess i just have to do it again... hopefully i do much better this time... really need to make up for the lack luster performance last sem. 

Just Roll with the punches...

Its the last day of 2006.... and I have to agree with Tim... The first half's been the best... coming back to NUS was ultimately sucky and yeah.. failing maths was even suckier... and yeah i guess we've all got to go thru our fair share of shitty times... but on the whole.. i'd say it was all good... just roll with the punches...

I guess its good that whatever shit had to happen happened before the new year... if not it would really suck to start of 07 on a bad note... Thanks to everyone who's been there for me the past year.... its been a blast... and though its gay to say it... i appreciate it.. :) happy new year everyone... here's to new beginnings..

Hoping for a miracle, expecting nothing...

I've sorta resigned to fate already... Sleeping on it helps a lil i guess. Went to school to submit my appeal form which I reallllly reallllly hope will result in a change of grade so that I dont have to retake the module.

But looking back... all my little failured have always happened for a reason, and everything somehow worked out in the end... like going to poly , making it to nus then going for noc. meeting the people i've met.. everything has just truly been a blessing. Things seriously could be much worse...

I actually had a primary school mini reunion last nite and it was just awesome... I was never particularly close to most of those who came and yet we were able to click sooo well after all these years and were just reminiscing about the good old days.... its actually been like 12 years since we "graduated" from ACPS. Those were the days when we didnt need fuckin computers... we made our own fun, wrestling, catching, rubber game, chapteh, collecting NBA cards even though I wasnt a basketball fan.... man.. we were all young and stupid and life was sooo fun and carefree.... none of us really recalled studying for anything... it was good. and somehow after all these years... everyone still kinda looked the same... hopefully this will turn out to be a yearly thing at the very least.. :)

The Worst Christmas ever

its boxing day... n i fee like shit... stuff is just going wrong. I'll admit. it could be worse... but its still bad enuff.... 

i failed my maths.... I've never failed anything before.... its just sucks... I did ok for the rest.. but this one thing is a major fuck up... i mean, i know im bad... but i really thought i wasnt this bad. :( my cap has dropped significantly.. its like everything i've worked for in the past few sems has been slashed coz of one fuckin module.. anyway, im going to nus to appeal tmr.. hope there's really some way I can get a few marks and at least get a D so I dont have to retake the module. Pray for me.... 

Application submitted

In a moment of impulse... I decided to Just do it... so i just submitted my resume to Apple... Whether I'm meant to go or not is another story... but I've done my part and I'll go with the flow whatever the outcome may be.... 

I dream of Apple..

I finally worked everything out and I realized Ive only got 7 more modules to do on top of my FYP. Which is a good thing coz I always thought I had alot more than that. So... it looks like I might just be able to go back after all... 

Now all I need to do is work out the little details with my FYP prof and hope he doesnt need me to do shit during that period. Then all I have to do is apply and hope i get it. If i don't get apple, I guess i'll see what exciting startup would wanna take me in... any backup suggestions?
