Went for Second Dose of Covid-19 Vaccine

https://marrythaigirlsingapore.blogspot.com/2021/06/went-for-first-dose-of-covid-19-vaccine.html https://marrythaigirlsingapore.blogspot.com/2021/06/3rd-day-after-1st-dose-of-moderna.html My second dose was scheduled on 25 Jul 2021, but I saw the MOH SMS saying I can bring forward, so I changed to today and went for it. Same as first dose, the process was very fast and smooth, and I noticed more people coming for the vaccination, but the crowd doesn't affect the process, seems like this Fullerton Health knows what they are doing and they are managing it very well. This time they also gave freebies, a box of mask and a bottle of sanitiser. Also gave a vaccination card same like the first time, but actually this vaccination information can be found on HealthHub too so don't really need to carry it around. They also gave a sticker saying "I AM VACCINATED AGAINST COVID-19", but I don't think it's supposed to prove anything other than just gimmicky. After the jab,

Bought iPad (8th generation - 32 GB - A2270 - Silver) for Wife

Image
The price on apple's website is S$499.00 but I bought it at Courts for S$488. The salesperson signed me up for the Courts membership which is free, and instantly applied an S$11 discount. It also just happened to be the last piece, and only left silver colour, geez this iPad 8th Gen so popular or what. Actually last weekend I went to Challenger to buy but out of stock, so I guess it's really popular. I also bought a casing from them for S$49, somehow they also included a 3-piece "SoundTeoh KA3-2 Key Plug" for S$1 which I didn't need but I think good to have; the iPad itself comes with a 3-pin plug and a usb-c to lightning cable so don't really need the key plug. Unfortunately they don't sell screen protector for the iPad, but fortunately just right beside their store have a good ol' trusty handphone shop. So I bought the iPad's screen protector + replace my own iPhone 8's casing + replace my own iPhone 8's screen protector for a total of S$

Switched to Giga Today

I received the SIM cards for myself and my wife today, one guy sent it to our home in the morning, just put it into our phones and activate using the Giga app, no hassle. So I expect to be able to save S$22 a month by switching, previously me and my wife's bill total is S$50. Thinking of getting a S$10 plan for daughter but I think she is too young to hold a mobile phone. These days so many choices for mobile plans, life getting better.

Just Know About Giga Today

Image
Today my colleague told me about this mobile operator named "Giga", he also told me it's actually under Starhub, then I took a look at their plans, first thing coming to my mind is bloody hell kena conned or what, or maybe I'm just super outdated. Anyway I have two sim only lines under Starhub, S$25 each so total S$50 a month. The data is 5GB + 10GB (for 12 months) with 100 minutes outgoing and 100 SMS. Strangely already more than 12 months but they still give me the extra 10GB but I guess it is because they know I'm paying more! So I signed up via the Giga app for the S$10 plan for myself, and a S$18 plan for my wife. I don't use much data so 6GB is way more than enough for me. But still find this quite unbelievable, how come they are running Starhub mobile plans and this Giga plans in parallel, just kind of don't make sense because who would pay more for way less features, those on sim only plans like me or those contract finish or going to finish surel

Lol BTS Meal

Image
https://www.todayonline.com/8days/eatanddrink/newsandopening/mcdonalds-bts-meal-sells-out-5-mins-some-received-bts-logo-less For S$8.90, you get these: 9-piece Chicken McNuggets® - BTS-branded packaging Two new limited-time sauces (Sweet Chili and Cajun) Large Fries Large Coke® Original Taste Less Sugar - BTS-branded packaging So it's the same old 9-piece nuggets meal with a different packaging and sauces. Maybe because I'm not a BTS fan so the differences are totally negligible to me... I wonder what people are going to do to the packaging after they finish the food...

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
