Black Panther (Chadwick Boseman) Passed Away at 43 Years Old

Didn't know he was suffering from cancer, in the movies he looked great, he is the black panther after all, can't imagine anyone else playing the character. Actually I didn't even know about him until I saw him in the Black Panther (2018) movie. Then I just googled what other movies he starred in, then I realise he is actually the The God of Wisdom in the movie Gods of Egypt (2016), no wonder I thought he looked familiar. Just thinking, average lifespan of a human being is about 80 years, so he left 37 years earlier, I think that's a lot of years to be able to enjoy, but then again, everyone has to go one day, just a matter of when and how. I hope he left without too much suffering. RIP.

Went to VivoCity...

And the crowd is back to pre-covid level, damn packed, what happened to the social distancing haha. But I wouldn't be too concerned as long as everybody do their part and put on a mask, which appears to be the case. Everybody also appears to be keeping good personal hygiene such as sanitising wherever possible i.e. there are sanitisers readily available for public which I believe is very helpful. Apart from mask and sanitisers, people are also keeping within the yellow lines in queues, I think it is a good effort from everyone, I believe we can get out of the situation soon as long as everyone continues doing their part. I also realise one good thing about mask, when sneezing or coughing, since people are already masked, whatever virus is contained within the mask, I believe regardless of covid or normal flu, it will help to limit the spread of any virus, so I'm thinking maybe in future when this is over, people should continue wearing mask in public, just in case there is anot...

How to Marry a Thai in Singapore

Image
You should refer to here -  https://www.rom.gov.sg/reg_info/rom_marriage.asp Please spend some time to go through and understand the information on that section (legal provision, other information, filing of notice, solemnization and etc), if your still not sure, feel free to drop a comment here or you can use their FAQ . The ROM website did a really good job of putting together the information that you need in a well-organized manner. I've done it once and I think the guide is very easy to follow. The only hiccup I've had with my marriage is during the  Appointment for verification & Statutory Declaration where both of us were required to read out a wall of text and my wife had difficulty getting past the first few lines and the counter guy got fed up and told my wife to stop. Definitely my oversight as I didn't arrange for an interpreter beforehand but luckily, there was a licensed interpreter at the scene and we managed to get her to do the interpretation ...
