May all the good memories and moments last, in both Virtual and RL.

Before I start on anything fresh, I recently realised a few days ago that the Friendster’s system is down, I believed that it has got hacked by some hacker, well, thats my Assumption. The system is now on recovering all their lost data.

ScreenShot001

It looks like Friendster system is still not ready.

Today was such a nice day out.

Because of time constrains and not having any other free timings, I decided to go out to get a Tripod and get a Sony Memory stick which my friend needs it.

Before we headed down to Sim Lim, my friend wanted to drop by to a RC shop to get some parts for his RC Helicopter.

After that, we left and headed to Bugis to get my Tripod for my Camera, needed that to have some good images.

THE VERY FIRST THING I SEE AFTER I CROSSED THE ROAD and headed for Sim Lim Square is this:

Singapore is very wealthy because of this few machines around.
Tax is needed for the Government to grow.
Mmm..

After that, we went into OG, to have some Air-con around, the weather is quite hot that day!

DSCN0133

After seeing some cool stuff around OG, they are having some christmas offers. Why not drop by there to see it?
The long sleve shirts looks nice. They also have Nike bags and stuff. Their prices there is very reasonable indeed.

After we left OG, there is a traffic light to cross over to this building, where we should go!

To those people who never got into Sim Lim Square before, Im just going to show you how it looks like. Just a note, all photos on this post is SELF TAKEN, I dont take from other sources, otherwise mentioned.

This is how Sim Lim looks like, Inside:

After getting into Sim Lim, I want this!!

DSCN0137

But nah, the price is too exp, for one Pioneer DJ Set, they quoted me a 4-Figure price. ( $2K )
Where got people have so much of money de, I will buy it once I grow big older, not big, im too big already.
What are you thinking huh?
I Say I’ve a big HEART la!
HAHA.

DSCN0138

That is the shop I brought from, they have very very good marketing tactics, trust me.
You get what I mean, I dont have to say more.
If those people who wants to know my experience with this shop, please contact me privately.

After that, I settle for a tripod ( which I regretted ) and left the place to their food court for some lunch.

I went to order first, this plate of food cost $4..

DSCN0139

Nah, its pretty quite expected, because this is a town area and we couldnt expect too much about it.

My friend bought this, although I couldnt really believe it..

DSCN0140

Ban mian is nice la, but I thought fried food is better, So its kinda weird that he like Ban Mian. To tell you the frank, Ban mian soup is very very nice and sweet.

DSCN0141

My other friend ate this, Gee. This should be quite expensive as the fish is quite big. Just one point, the fries they gave was quite little. Big fish but Little fries!

The fries taste crispy but its quite little and small. Long John Silvers fries taste better, in my opinion.

DSCN0144

After that, we left the food court, and outside there is this Iron-Man game on the XBox, which is pretty fun because you can fly and shoot at all the tanks and the helicopters and you can hover around the air and shoot the guns and the item inventaries aiming at you.

Check it out only at Xbox 360 Live, Iron-Man!

Have you ever see a water in a computer? Yes, this is a water-cooling system which uses nothing but water to cool a computer down. A result of a heated computer will be a failure of the components and devices, which will in the end lead to a malfunctioning computer.

DSCN0146

This is a computer which is completely cooled by water, instead of the noisy fans inside the PC.
Water-cooling is very costly, and only used by Gamers or Enterprise servers. Be careful with water, because one small hole on the water pipe will result to a leak on the computer. Once you have a leak, you can be prepared to say bye bye to the computer.

Bare electric materials cannot touch water, it may result to a short-circuit.

I have to drop by Sim Lim tomorrow again to change to a much bigger tripod, Small tripod’s cant bring you anywhere.

Those guys from my Palau Ubin LTC Camp, which I will blog about it in future… Has came to our school for de-brief again.

They were talking more about leadership this time round, and we found out alot of new stories from our camp commandant.

This is our LTC Camp Group 5!
DSC00331 - LTC08CAMPDEBRIEF131108

DSCPhoto - LTC08CAMPDEBRIEF131108
Followed by our favourite tagline! Psycho Motor Problem! Ahahas.

To raise money to cover off the cost of the LTC Camp 2008 event, our school tried to give us tins to get public donations to cover the cost.

This idea is workable, aint it?

IMAGE_001 - LTC08CAMPDEBRIEF131108
Chester’s Pyramid!

IMAGE_003- LTC08CAMPDEBRIEF131108
The Tins!

IMAGE_004 - LTC08CAMPDEBRIEF131108
The Shaw T!

So I went back to school today to collect a big tin and a Leader’s Shirt back home!


Those going Cambodia, or wanting to. Here is further information about it!

There are a number of health risks associated with travel to Cambodia and travellers are advised to seek the latest medical advice on vaccinations and precautions especially regarding typhoid, cholera, malaria, hepatitis B and polio, at least three weeks before travelling. Malaria prophylaxis is recommended for allareas except Phnom Penh, around Lake Tonle Sap and the Angkor temple complex. Dengue fever, transmitted by mosquitoes, is prevalent especially in heavily populated areas. There have been outbreaks of bird flu with four deaths in Cambodia, and although the risk of contracting the disease is slight, travellers should avoid contact with domestic, wild and caged birds and ensure thatall poultry and egg dishes are well cooked. Diarrhoea is the number one ailment afflicting travellers. Visitors should assume that the water is not safe to drink; bottled water is widely available. Avoid uncooked meat, unpeeled fruit, salads and food sold by street vendors, and don’t drink beverages with ice. Medical facilities are poor, except for a few expensive private hospitals in Phnom Penh.Treatment must be paid for with cash and health insurance is essential.

Yeah, Please do take note of some certain important points.

Jeremy
