			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A couple of months ago, Dave Bruno kicked off a personal challenge of reducing his personal belongings to 100 items. The project is called <a href="http://guynameddave.typepad.com/stuckinstuff/100-thing-challenge.html" target="_blank"><strong>100 Thing Challenge</strong></a> and it raises a lot of interesting questions like &#8220;what counts as personal stuff?&#8221;, &#8220;what about collections of stuff?&#8221; or more relevant to people like me, &#8220;are books counted individually or as one item?&#8221;</p>
<p>I know I own more than 100 books (probably more than 200, I haven&#8217;t counted in a while) , so that category of things is the first one I&#8217;ll take out of the equation.</p>
<p>Anyhoo, Leo Babauta of <a href="http://zenhabits.net"><strong>Zen Habits</strong></a> have also taken up the challenge.  He gives a few suggestions on how to get started in <a href="http://zenhabits.net/2007/09/minimalist-fun-the-100-things-challenge/" target="_blank"><strong>this entry</strong></a>.</p>
<p>As I&#8217;ve slowly started decluttering myself, I find this challenge interesting, although I don&#8217;t know if I&#8217;ll be able to reduce my belongings down to 100! But it&#8217;s something to think about.</p>
<p>I have set aside my first batch of stuff that I&#8217;m planning to sell off &#8211; mostly oil burners, lanterns and things like that. I&#8217;m trying to talk a few people in to clearing out their unneeded stuff so we can put up a garage sale. Anyone interested?

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m working on a more substantial post but it&#8217;s taking some time because I have to dig for URLs and info. In the meanwhile, here&#8217;s a couple of other things that&#8217;s distracting me.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://amp.channelv.com/amp">AMP</a></strong><br />
It&#8217;s like myspace music, except less annoying! It&#8217;s off to a good start as Asia&#8217;s music resource, serving as a hub for musicians to meet other musicians, and for music lover to discover new music. After creating a profile, you can add songs to your playlist. Here&#8217;s <a href="http://amp.channelv.com/amp/viewMember.html?id=7872">my profile</a> and some of the songs I&#8217;m listening to.</p>
<p><a href="http://electrocity.co.nz/"><strong>ElectroCity<br />
</strong></a>I&#8217;m so addicted to this game. It&#8217;s like SimCity with an environmental message and quite easy to grasp after a few trial-&amp;-error games. Sez the website:</p>
<blockquote><p><em> ElectroCity is a new online computer game that lets players manage their own virtual towns and cities. Itâ€™s great fun to play and also teaches players all about energy, sustainability and environmental management in New Zealand.</em></p></blockquote>
<p><strong>Dark Cities collide</strong><br />
Remember that anthology my short story was <a href="http://www.georgettetan.com/2007/03/working-title/">accepted</a> into? Astro is launching the Dark City TV series tomorrow, but hold your applause&#8230; this is not related to the original book. As usual, Sharon Bakar has the story, so I will just direct you over to <a href="http://thebookaholic.blogspot.com/2007/06/stolen-city.html">her entry</a>.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My write-up on Bel Canto&#8217;s &#8220;<strong><a href="http://kakikuching.blogspot.com/2007/04/night-at-movies-with-bel-canto-wong-wye.html">A Night at the Movies</a></strong>&#8221; is in PostMag <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">today</span> yesterday. PostMag is still not online so I&#8217;m not going to bother linking. Since I have video clips from the night and I need a reason to update the blog this week, here&#8217;s a look at what you missed.</p>
<ul>
<li>Bel Canto &#8211; <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WxOXDiX8Go0" target="_blank">As Time Goes By</a></li>
<li>Bel Canto &#8211; <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0mhVABtCGRA" target="_blank">Into The West</a></li>
<li>Bel Canto &#8211; Les Miserables &#8211; <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qGg8ZqrH8BE" target="_blank">Video 1</a> / <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X7NHXoHQm6w" target="_blank">Video 2</a></li>
<li>Wong Wye Yi &#8211; <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PTZgIAEH2OM" target="_blank">Video 1</a> / <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=97wTyu6h200" target="_blank">Video 2</a></li>
</ul>
<p>I should add that my camera&#8217;s video settings are wonky. The image and sound isn&#8217;t in synch. Hope your synapses don&#8217;t backfire on you.</p>
<p>If you have not heard of <strong><a href="http://kakikuching.blogspot.com/">Kaki Kuching</a></strong>, this is probably a good time for me to plug it again since I just updated the layout.</p>
<blockquote><p><strong><a href="http://kakikuching.blogspot.com/">Kaki Kuching</a></strong> is an event blog for the arts &amp; entertainment scene in Kuching, fuelled by people who are more or less &#8220;in the know&#8221;.</p>
<p>We like classical concerts, independent films, art exhibitions and performance poetry. We support acts and shows in most shapes and forms (unless it&#8217;s shaped like a reality TV show and formed like an over-rated pop star).</p>
<p>We support local talent <span style="font-style: italic">now</span>, instead of waiting until they&#8217;ve made their fame elsewhere and pretending we&#8217;ve always been behind them.</p>
<p>You like culture? Come and get it. Better yet, get out there and make it happen.</p></blockquote>
