I’m Charles, a thinker, blogger(obviously) and student. I like ideas and I like technology.

As a part of a goal to find my passion and purpose in life, this is my experimenting with writing ideas, rants, humour, and hopefully articles that are actually worth reading. Most of my writing documents things I’ve thought about or have found interesting, so I can find it later when I remember it again. It’s a diary, not about personal details because my life will bore you to death, rather about ideas, advice, technology and anything else I find useful or interesting.

U-FAQ-TIGPYFAA – Unfrequently asked questions that I’m going to pretend you frequently ask anyway.

Q: Why is it called “mustard and orange peels? Think, Test, Grow?

UPDATE: I’ve since changed the title to “Think, Test, Grow”. Think because I like to think, and I like ideas, Test because this is my experiment, Grow because that’s what I hope to get out of it.

A: It was the first thing I thought of when I picked the template for the blog. Ever heard people say “great content is what really matters on the internet”? If by some miracle this blog becomes popular one day, then I can also say “great content is what really matters”. If not then I blame the internet for disliking my content and/or being wrong about what matters.

Another reason is that I have no idea what I’m going to write about. Giving it with a meaningful name that represents its contents would no doubt be a misnomer, and it will restrict me to writing about topics that suite it’s title. Calling it “Charles’s Blog” is too boring and egocentric.

Q: Why the domain cmalabs?

A: cma is one of the aliases I use. Labs because the world is one big experiment. You try things and hope to achieve some goal, whether it succeeds or not, you learn something about the world. This blog is my experiment with writing.
