Recontract Mobile and Broadband

Just now went to Starhub to recontract my mobile line with iphone 8 and broadband to fibre 1Gbps with a free linksys router. The phone is $606 with the XS plan, end up they charge me for $750 but later I checked again actually their mistake, went back and got a refund of the amount overcharged. I think the Starhub website pricing can be quite confusing, it says new line have $150 off, but don't know if the quoted price is already $150 off or further can discount, maybe that's why me and the counter staff got confused. Anyway end up paying $356 for the phone. I trade in my iphone 6S for $200 + a $50 voucher. The iphone 8 feels smoother and a bit lighter, quite cool but other than that don't see much of a difference, but the camera looks nicer than 6S. Then for 1Gbps only $39.90 with a free router that comes with 3 antennas, the model is EA7500, very easy to setup.

Wife Went for Echo Scan

Today went for echo no consultation, bill around $200+, end up can pay by Medisave so pay $0 cash. Found that there is a withdrawal limit on such claim, one year can only claim $300 which is quite strange but good thing every year only need to scan maximum twice so not too bad. Anyway wife intend to go for heart operation to replace her faulty heart valve, next week see the doctor then request for it, hope can get an early date, then have to plan for her mother to come to help take care of baby.

Seen Baby Specialist Today

Doctor thinks she is doing very well both in terms of development and her heart condition. Wife thinks hole not completely closed but just now clarified with doctor actually is closed, just that like any bodily wound it needs time to heal so the follow-up is mainly to check on her recovery. And since she is doing well, her follow-up interval has been changed to yearly instead of 6-monthly, so next appointment is next year. Today paid $115 after government subsidy.

Samurice Sucks

Image
Definitely the worst food that I have ever ordered from Foodpanda, wasted my $10 voucher from Grab. The chicken karaage not fresh, have a smell, no wonder fry until so black trying to cover the smell. The salmon wasabi mayo onigiri still ok, edible but nothing special. By the way it comes with one lump of wasabi but it doesn't taste like wasabi. And it's just some mayonnaise with hardly any salmon, mostly it's just the rice. The salmon roe onigiri is super fishy and the rice soaked with some sort of red water, think the eggs broke inside, eat already feel like vomiting. Overall samurice give me the impression they are like some sort of mommy's failed kitchen experiments, this kind of standard still open shop. No wonder every time walk by their restaurant hardly any people even during weekends. Avoid it if you don't want to waste your money.

Logitech G603 Gaming Mouse $109

Image
This one totally worth every single dollar, don't feel any lag at all, unlike the cheap wireless mouse I got years ago, play halfway can hang. Note that this mouse a bit heavy, good thing there is option to take out one battery which helps to lighten a bit. The Logitech Gaming Software also very easy to use, can use it to configure the mouse. Just download online. Also comes with an extension cable and two AA batteries.

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
