FTX Token Brings Down Entire Crypto Market

https://marrythaigirlsingapore.blogspot.com/2022/11/ftx-token-tanked.html After yesterday's post, this morning I woke up and saw the token trading at around US$5, wah seh, like around 3/4 of the value got wiped out within 24 hours. Then CZ of Binance said they signed a non-binding letter of intent to fully acquire FTX and they will conduct a full due diligence in coming days. What a rapid turn of events, even worse than UST/LUNA, at least they took 3-4 days to collapse, this FTX within one day 3/4 of value gone just like that. I wonder who have huge exposure to FTX, sure kena flushed out. This afternoon, FTX asked for our help. There is a significant liquidity crunch. To protect users, we signed a non-binding LOI, intending to fully acquire https://t.co/BGtFlCmLXB and help cover the liquidity crunch. We will be conducting a full DD in the coming days. — CZ 🔶 Binance (@cz_binance) November 8, 2022

FTX Token Tanked

Today the price suddenly fell from US$22 to around US$15+, damn scary, reminds me of LUNA and UST but hope it doesn't turn out that way. Can read more about the story here:  https://www.coindesk.com/markets/2022/11/08/ftt-plummets-as-market-fears-possible-alameda-contagion In crypto things happen damn fast, one minute FTX is the kid with the shiniest toy, next minute kena trashed until upside down. I see this FTX and the Sam Bankman-Fried machiam have unlimited money, then now suddenly have rumours of insolvency all over Twitter, and what printing money out of thin air via their FTT token. Anyway the FTT price now recovered to around US$17, at least it didn't death spiral to 0, hope not another collapse. Bitcoin and Ethereum still the best, most solid. Crypto.com's CRO token also not bad I think, so far they seem very prudent, which is a good thing, but a lot of people complaining about their various sponsorships haha.

Popeyes Delivery Sucks

Me and wife was craving for some fried chicken but don't feel like eating KFC, so decided to try Popeyes delivery. They don't have foodpanda or deliveroo for our area so had to order via the Zeoniq platform, quite easy to use though. Ordered the sour cream chicken and spicy chicken savers set, comes with a large mash potato and a garlic rice. Also ordered a large coleslaw and a large cheese fries for daughter. End up the coleslaw is missing from the delivery, and the fries came without any cheese, good thing daughter not disappointed, I think just fries she happy. Called the store and the staff had the cheek to tell me to go down any day to collect, seriously wtf, then I might as well just go buy the whole thing instead of delivery right, don't know the staff trying to be funny or what. Then I tried to submit a feedback via their contact us page, it kind of bugged out, seriously. I go to their Twitter account, looks dead. Then they have Facebook, seems more active but I don

Prime Video - The Lord Of The Rings - The Rings Of Power

Image
Recently I resubscribed to Amazon Prime and happened to see this new series, it's pretty good, I normally don't like TV series because they are kind of draggy but this one is alright. The main star of the show seems to be Galadriel played by Morfydd Clark (more feet?). Compared to the one played by Cate Blanchett in the main LOTR movies, I think this one is the younger version whereas the other is the lao jiao version, the other feels more powerful. Now the season 1 finished yesterday, I wonder when the next season will start, maybe can go watch the whole LOTR movies again lol, don't know watch how many times already, it's the kind of movies that you have to revisit every few months or years, it's that good.

Mass Murder at Thai Nursery

Image
https://www.channelnewsasia.com/asia/thailand-mass-shooting-childcare-centre-gunman-killed-himself-former-policeman-2991456 Wah this is really extreme wtf, young kids he also murder, I read from other sources the kids around 2-5 years, and he stabbed them to death, like wtf man, what is going on in his mind... I keep imagining what might happen if my daughter is in the nursery at that time, although she is staying in Singapore, also I keep imagining what kids of 2-5 years old will be thinking when they see this f***** coming to them with a knife, so terrible... There should be at least one armed guard at every school, this kind of tragedy must never happen again.

Update on "URAH Bone Health plus Bio-Calcium and Omega-3" After 3 Weeks

My knee is feeling normal again, no more weird feeling or clicking joint, I think it got better after I followed the instructions to apply more, another thing is other than applying on the knee cap, I also applied behind the knee cap because I felt a little lump behind, not sure if it was swollen or what, now can't really feel it anymore. Now I'm back to being able to climb two steps of stairs at one go, previously if I tried to do that, I can feel that weird feeling like my knee is going to detach, now my knee feels more solid. I think anyone with knee issues should really try this cream, just apply it according to instructions will do, just don't under-apply like me haha.

Wife's Flight Rescheduled

https://marrythaigirlsingapore.blogspot.com/2022/10/bought-air-tickets-for-wife-and-baby.html Her Bangkok to Udon Thani's flight got rescheduled, so instead of waiting 3 hours 35 minutes at Don Mueang, now she only need to wait 2 hours and 25 minutes, not too rush and not too drag. Now thinking about it, good thing I booked the whole trip via one site, I suppose any change will be managed by the operator i.e. AirAsia, imagine I go book separately and book too close, timing bring forward then probably rush like mad and may even miss the second flight.

I'll sum up the key points in the FAQ provided by ICA so you don't have to go through one big page. Do let me know if I missed out anything or correction is required by dropping a comment. GENERAL LTVP+ will be in effect from 01 Apr 2012. LTVP+ holders will enjoy extended duration of residency, public healthcare subsidies and easier access to employment.

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
