Bought JBL TUNE 700BT S$119

Previously bought the JBL Tune 500BT and it was really good for the price and I love it, now still using it. The reason why I decided to buy one more headphone is more for office use, because HR required us to put on earphones when conferencing. So the 500BT I will bring to office, then at home I will use the 700BT haha. Anyway I think major difference between the 500BT and 700BT is the battery life, 500BT can last up to 16 hours whereas the 700BT can last up to 27 hours. Another difference is the ear pads, 700BT have a much more comfortable ear pads as it almost covers the ears; the pads are bigger. Lastly the 700BT have an audio jack and comes with an audio cable which I probably won't use but good to have just in case. If you don't own either one and thinking of getting one, I recommend the 700BT, if on budget, the 500BT is really good too.

Been Really Busy Recently

These few weeks very busy with project activities, it's going live soon so a lot of work to do, a lot of loose ends to tie up before we can meet the payment milestone, almost every weekend also have to work, damn tiring. I think doing project doesn't have to be so tiring, if everybody do their part, follow the plan and deliver on time, a project can be a great learning experience instead of a terrible experience. Talking about the plan, the person coming up with the plan is even more crucial, because this person can make or break a project. Talking about project managers, in my entire IT career I have worked with many project managers, there are those sibeh zai one, and there are those who simply cannot make it, so I am pretty good at telling if a project manager is good or not and I can tell you my current project manager is the totally cannot make it type, that's why this project so siong, end up the director have to step in to drive the project so you can imagine how bad

How to Marry a Thai in Singapore

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 fo
