Bought This Nice Computer Desk for S$49 at IKEA Tampines

Image
Length: 120 cm, Width: 60 cm, Height: 74 cm It's also available in many other colours, you can click this link for more information. I put my CPU on the left, my 23 inch monitor in the middle, keyboard and mouse right in front of the monitor and I still have some space on my right side to put a tray for holding my wallet, keys and small items, I really like this desk, cheap and spacious and most importantly, plenty of leg-space!

Just one example, on that 08 Feb 2013 visit, we met this doctor who kept sighing in frustration, yes there are some things that we are not sure of, but why not communicate nicely and help each other understand the situation rather than display such unprofessional behaviour, mad...

SingPost Still Going Upwards

My last update on SingPost if anyone is interested. Currently SingPost is trading at S$1.215, I can choose to sell at S$1.21 and take a profit of S$273.01. By the way, it's currently trading with dividend until 6 Feb. The question is, how high can the price go? Let's look at the following table: Date Target Price Call Source 28 Jan 2013 1.23 HOLD OCBC 28 Jan 2013 1.21 HOLD Maybank Kim Eng 28 Jan 2013 1.14 HOLD DBS Vickers Now who should I believe? Actually I think SingPost can go above S$1.22 no problem, even after dividend, it will probably stay around S$1.2x or more, it's a good place to park money. And STI seems to be a bit high, some people are expecting a correction to come soon, but then again, it's hard to say, the US economy seems to be quite stable for now as they have avoided the fiscal cliff by pushing the deadline to March plus they have unlimited borrowing until 19 May. So from ...

Path of Exile (PoE) Open Beta

I downloaded this game yesterday and played for a few hours, this game reminds me of Diablo 2 (D2), the dark and evil feeling, the map looks like D2 map, but especially the many different kinds of build that I can possibly try out, just look at the skill tree , ahem, skill FOREST to exact. I'm playing a summoner witch, now at level 9 and having fun so far, still thinking of how I'm going to play it out, there's just so many possibilities, I can choose between having more health or more energy shield because some items provide a boost to energy shield, and I'm thinking of whether to go full summoning or a balance between damage dealing and summons. Then they have this skill gem system, instead of learning skills or getting it through level-ups, you get your skills through gems from drops or questing rewards, I'm not sure of other ways but I got a skill gem off a monster that I killed, and a couple more through questing. There's also support gems that modify y...

SingPost Hits S$1.20

As mentioned in my earlier post , I had expected the price to go above S$1.20 when it is trading CD, but today, the stock is already trading at S$1.20, and it seems like the buying volume is still increasing, I think probably before it even go CD, the price would have gone over S$1.20. If I sell now at S$1.195, I would have a slightly higher profit of S$198.04, tempting, but I wouldn't know what to buy next if I sell now because it seems like the other counters that I'm looking at are all at quite a high price, plus there is still potential for growth. Actually SingPost is a decent 5%+ dividend stock if one wishes to hold for a long time, even if buying at S$1.20 per share, it's still a 5.09% yield, not bad at all.
