Last Day of Hanis Cafe at National Library

Today marks the last day of Hanis Cafe at National Library. I had wrote a few times while dining there. Their prices had increased way a lot and yet the quality of the food and drinks had not met my expectations. So its ok, shall wait for the next tenant to take over !

Secret Lab Akatsuki Design is crazily sick !

Unfortunately this is based as exclusive in the US market. Akatsuki design on SecretLab gaming chair is just perfect in both design and usability !! My current Apol Behemoth Gaming Chair is now dominated by my little one with her milk and stuffs onto my chair. Looks like i will be getting SecretLab next for my 2025 purchase !

Town Hall 14 Finally [Clash Of Clan]

Finally upgraded to Town Hall 14. Most likely will take about 3 years time for me to completely upgrade the rest of the buildings before upgrading further to Town Hall 15 from now. Of course i am talking about being a F2P player 😅

Mr Coconut Strawberry Shake

First time tried the Mr Coconut Strawberry flavour. To be frank, really not that great after all. The best is still its original flavour ! Somemore it is more expensive 😪 Oh well. 

DBS Paylah $3 Cashback

Shared by my colleague and i took the effort on friday to try getting my cai fan for this weekly deal. And it works ! $3 off from my $6.50 Cai Fan is just awesome ! Thank you DBS !! It not only help the hawkers, but also help us as well ! Only condition is to use their DBS Paylah app to make the payment. Swift and Easy !

Redmi Buds 3 Pro

Redmi Buds 3 Pro is using most of its cutting edge tech during its launch. However, i bought it as a spare so that I can listen and shut off the noise away from the crowd during commuting. Of course as compared to the Apple AirPod Pro 2nd Gen, it loses out in loudness and ANC. But due to its price range, it sure deserve the title of being the best budget sound buds ! Bought it from Shopee from its limited Flash Deals at $45.

Wet Wipes safe for wiping all lenses

Bought at $5.50 per box. One box contains about 100 small wipes and i really mean it is small. When opened out, the wipes are abit twice the size of those screen protector wipes. So far, i tested it is able to wipe off glasses well especially the fingerprints, dust and oil. Recommended !

Quickie Meal @ Sushi Tei Thomson Plaza

Was running some errand at Thomson Plaza, so went to have a quick lunch at Sushi Tei here. It is big and even during a weekday, the restaurant is dealing with almost full house of diners. As usual, a hot soup with its rich japanese ingredients were great ! Needless to say, all the ingredients were of good quality. Easily still one of the best restaurant in Singapore ! Membership coming to an end 😪

Scratch-Resistant iPhone? Really?

Apple says this. Well they are not the only ones. Despite how they say, it is still scratchable. Once your device is scratched, there goes the value when selling to a second hand dealer. Thats why no matter how good they say, you will still require a case. Unless you have applecare or you are simply rich 😅

The true power of GaN power on the go !

I no longer need to bring multiple chargers for my laptop, M2 iPad Pro, Z Fold 4 and S23 Ultra. I just had to bring out my uGreen GaN 100W charger with 3 100W charging cables. All the modern chargers be it Lenovo, Samsung or Apple are using Type C ports. This allow me to charge anywhere at anytime with this universal GaN charger. No more multiple or bulk charging block anymore, also the reason why Samsung and Apple stop providing Charging brick for most of their devices today !

Still eating Mcdonald frequently

Although i am still having Mcdonald for Breakfast and Lunch, i am really cutting down on fries. Double Spicy still, but having 0% sugar Iced Latte, and Corn. Hopefully, this is not as damaging, but of course also cut down on lunch. Next, i will focus on adjusting my breakfast routine.

Toast Box Grand Opening Special @ Bras Basah

Nice centralized place, although we had one outlet at Bugis Junction as well. Got their Traditional Kaya Toast with a small cup of coffee at $3. Well, it is still all right for a good afternoon break among all the stress. Coffee and bread is good, but discount gotta last only a few days after opening.

Yi Fang Taiwan Fruit Tea Late Night Drink

They was one of the pioneer branch at Canberra Plaza when it opened. Had tried a few times over these few years and they were quite costly actually. Drink wise, i felt is normal and not that fantastic, but it is a good place to chill though.

Smartphones with Canon Camera Lenses

Can't wait to see which smartphones will comes with Canon Camera Lenses first. Really need a very good lens and zooming capability so that i can skip the part of buying standalone camera device ! However at this stage, it is only consideration. If it went through, then it could be matter of years to come !

My first hard song with a diamond score [BeatStar]

My first Hard Mode song that i achieved to get a Diamond scoreline. I am really feeling great that i managed to hit it well at 405 Perfect+ consistently. Woohoo 🥳🥳🥳 Will try my best to get more and more diamond !!!

Enjoying Budget Sushi Express @ Home !

Tabao home Sushi Express Go from Causeway Point with tons of Sushi on my own. 😄 Quality still above average at 6/10, but is still cost effective as compared to more other atas sushi chain. Just make your own hot cup of green tea and it will be a perfect meal ! Despite how busy you are, it will be good if you can sit down for a meal like this  😄

End of 1st gen Wheel of Fortune Host

 

Can't imagine he is able to be the Wheel of Fortune for so many decades ! Watch it since SBC days while i am just a kid till i am so old and yet he is still hosting the show. Think he really did a great job and no one can ever have the same quality as him for Wheel of Fortune host ! Have a good retirement to enjoy the days ahead !

Ugreen 100W GaN Charger USB C

 

Wow i got to say that this GaN Charger from Ugreen first thing first the build quality is damn solid. Smell great right out from the box and the charging capability is definitely top notch ! As i was using a 100W display cable to check every watts going into my devices, it is going at the device's max watts charge. Got this from the flash deal for $55.91 from its orginial price of $119.99.

Cheapest SPAM deals @ NTUC

Saw at NTUC selling SPAM Luncheon Meat at $4.65 is considered very cheap already as the average price is normally $5.65, but original price is at $6.31. This is truly one of the best Luncheon Meat in the world in my personal opinion so i will definitely recommend for all to try. Of course try not to eat this everyday. After all it is processed food and the sodium level is extremely high for this can.

 

One of the worst Klang Claypot Herbal Bak Kut Teh

One of the worst Bak Kut Teh i had ever tried. Spent more than $20+ for this as shown in my pic above. Soup was 0/10 and Meat used was 0/10. Really very fed up with the quality for its price. Wasted my $$$ and had to spend more money to fill my stomach after. Sigh ! 

[Clash of Clan] Begin construction to Level 14 Town Hall !

As a F2P player of Clash of Clan for almost a decade, i am really impressed that this game is still going Strong ! I am currently active in my ex classmate's clan. Finally it is time where i had upgraded all buildings in Town Hall 13 and moving towards Town Hall 14. That means my Heroes' Pets are unlocked and game are getting even harder to grind, attack and defense. 2 whole weeks for this upgrade and i really look forward to max out my resources prior to the new upgrade !

My first 100W GaN Power Delivery Charger !!

Had placed my order during flash deals from Shopee 6.6 promotion ! At $55.91, its one of the cheapest i can get since i had camped for 2 months for this. Let's hope it will be good and able to last long as all my latest devices are power hungry ! Namely my new Apple M2 iPad Pro 12.9, Samsung Z Fold 4, Samsung Tab S7, Samsung S23 Ultra and Lenovo X395.

Langrisser X Gintama Crossover !!!

Love this crossover after a long long time !! Tried to roll three x 10 times, damn didnt get the main character, but Kagura is great too ! Power Character !! Need to take time to build and max out her equipments and skill set !

My Samsung Fold 4 is finally fixed !

Finally my Z fold 4 is finally fixed on 4th June 2023 after encountering downtime since 30th May 2023. Really went through shit times still i need to buy another Samsung S23 Ultra which is the second best phone apart from my Z Fold 4. I really enjoyed using Fold 4 and got to know from Samsung Technician that this is a common issue. 😒 However long story short, this episode had gone to an end since Samsung had replaced a brand new inner and outer screen, brand new battery and hinge, which i am happy enough. Time to move on now using both Z Fold 4 and S23 Ultra.

FairPrice House Brands - Buy more and save more !

With price and expenses undoubtedly going upwards, products are also becoming more and more expensive. I had no choice now, but to resort to the lowest cost items not all, but some are indeed low price. So i had to wait for vouchers + promotion + house brand like FairPrice to purchase them in bulk. Tissue, tissues and wipes are items to be used daily and dispose. At least Fairprice quality still not bad and price is still ok to tank. 😏

The Power of M2 iPad Pro 12.9 + Aukey CB-C71

The Power of both M2 iPad Pro 12.9 + Aukey 8 in 1 [Model: CB-C71] docking station never fails to amaze me ! Needless to say about my new M2 iPad Pro really perform beyond iPad and parital into laptop category. I am able to multi task with many application running in the background with Stage Manager. The only weakness which was the only USB 4 Type C or Thunderbolt 4 port is eliminated with the help of Aukey 8 in 1 docking station where I can also make use of my wife's monitor to output display or extended screen, receiving power from the Power Adapter Port to constantly charge my iPad Pro, LAN Port connection for super fast connection, hooking up mouse and keyboard with several available ports for transferring files to storage media. With most desktop applications going into cloud, any piece of hardware will be able to support work without the full size laptop or desktop machine especially on the go ! 💛💛💛 Today is the day where Apple will be announcing more enhancement and make every apple device an even better and productive machine !

10Gbps Home Internet from Starhub !

Starhub is releasing 10Gbps Home Internet connection. I had just renewed my Starhub Broadband for 1 + 1 Gbps fiber connection for another 2 years contract. So all in all, i will be having two Router which I will be able to set up as Mesh throughout my home. To be honest, it is really hard to utilize 10Gbps for home or really see the benefit in doing so. So don't see the need to be paying $119.90 every month for this. Instead Starhub is currently running a promotion of providing a 55 inch TV, Nintendo Switch OLED, Gaming Monitors or Xiaomi latest Robot vaccum. I let my wife choose for the freebie.

Urgent Replacement Phone to prevent downtime

Oh well, my Samsung Z fold 4 is encountering Black Screen of Death and according to Samsung Service Center, it is a hardware issue as inspected. Only thing is Service Center require me to delete all data before giving them the device to fix it for days. I couldn't afford the downtime without phone for my work. Since I'm a Samsung Care+ customer, i am entitled to premium on-site repair service. Unfortunately they mentioned that office address cannot be one of the address and must be repair from home address. 😒 After my first initial report, they said that they need 24 hours for the onsite engineer to contact me to get an appointment. I can't imagine the downtime and there is no confirmation date and time of the replacement that Samsung can provide. To this stage, i am really disappointed with what Samsung Care+ had promised but cannot fulfil. Hence i immediately purchased another Samsung S23 Ultra which was released 3 months ago and still relatively up to date in terms of software and specs. Migrate everything and wait for Samsung to call me to arrange for repair. Not going to sign up for Samsung Care+ ever again !

New Mcdonald Coconut Ice Cream !

Tried on the very first day of launch and subsequent days, seems that the coconut ice cream isn't as bad as what most comments said that doesn't taste like coconut. What most people said that it is more heavy in vanilla taste than coconut. But what would you expect for these price? Cannot really compare apple to orange with Mr Coconut lah. So all in all, i think for a limited time only, this is worth trying or one to be enjoyed with. 😁

Happy Vesak Day to All !

Happy Vesak Day 2023 to all ! Especially for all Buddhists who pray and celebrate this day, Happy holiday for those who are enjoying the holiday. Will be a vegetarian for today 😁 Time to be more productive moving forward ! Still have 5 more months+ to finish my goals for 2023.

Netflix Singapore Subscribers to get charged more for sharing out of their Household

Haha, I also felt that it is fair for the company to implement this lah. Too many "Smart Alex" abusing these accounts. Now those who sells Netflix accounts to share with other people gotta get shut down. Better off for people to sign up their own lah based on my gut feel. Actually there are still many loophole to do this, but i leave it for the people to figure out themselves. 😉 Happy Netflixing guys !
