Tiredness

Did not have a good sleep last night due to unsuitable pillow. Also woke up many times due to the heavy rain. Tonight has to recover my sleep.

The M1 contractor came at 11.15am to install fiber broadband. I asked him to help me to set up the router so that I could connect to wireless surfing. However, after about 30mins, I asked him if he was having problem with the router and he said he could not activate the wireless. Not sure what happened but he could not do much. Hence I said ok and just ensure that the land connection has no problem.

After he left, I tried to do the installation myself. He did not install using the CD which I tried. Though made mistake initially but I managed to get it connected. Little genius (hahaha).

Left house at around 1 plus and took cab to office. Had lunch with colleagues who were waiting for me. Thanks to them that I need not eat alone. :P

Puzzled

Today, I continued to figure out how to read contacts from my phone sim card. I think really can't and need to import contacts to my google account. I am too traditional that wants to keep everything in my sim card.

New problem arised! I could not read the imported contacts in my google contacts. Real strange.

Hence... the search continues.

Too high tech

Back home late and started to play with my new phone. I have problem reading contacts from Sim card and still struggling. Also trying to figure out how the tethering works. The phone is too high tech that I can't handle. Kept asking 小珠 for help. :P

Shall continue to figure out. It makes me with no time to watch j-dramas.

It's Sunday again

I slept late last night as I was "busy" exploring my new phone. Slept at 3pm but surprisingly, I woke up rather early at around 9.30am. Since it was still early, I laid on my bed for 30mins before really waking up.

My niece came around noon time. She played with her ipod games and asked me to help her while she was playing Photo Hunt. Quite interesting and ended up I installed similar game in my iphone (anyway, it's free). I did install some other free programs like language translation, Bloomberg, Straits Time news, Today news, Channel News Asia news, SG Transport, SG Mall and many others. These are all free ones. I do not mind paying for those program or games that are interesting and worth paying. Shall explore more before paying for them. Those free games are trial version only.

So far I yet to really use the phone so I may be slow in responding to sms or dialing out. We went to White Sands Shopping mall this afternoon. The funny part was we were looking for my brother-in-law. My sister asked me to call him. By the time I managed to figure out how to look for his number and dial out, my niece already found him. LOL.

Started to do some initial packing after my niece went home. Originally intended to use my Hushpuppy luggage but in the end, I decided to borrow my sister's bigger luggage. I found that if I used my own luggage, it will be full when I fly to Hokkaido. There will be little space for me to put things that I will be buying. Those winter pullover and sweater took up a lot of space. Will bring airtight storage bags over to minimise space taking up by those thick clothing and this will help to save some space for my goodies. I may not be buying a lot this time round but who knows I may ended up buying more than I expect. Hee hee...

Just took medicine and perhaps will start to "float" towards my bed soon. So fast that weekend is over. Now looking forward to coming Thursday for our trip to Japan. :)

Miracle pills

Wow... woke up at 10.30am today as usual. I had a long long sleep. Due to my "weak body", I slept early last night after taking medicine. "Float" towards my bed and had deep sleep. The medicine took effect quite fast.

The pills I took last night were "miracle pills". I felt so much better this morning. My nose cleared and hence did not cough so much. No more block and I can breathe normal now.

Cleared some of my office work this morning and went out with my parents and sister at about 3.30pm. We were so hungry because we did not eat proper breakfast and lunch. For me, I just ate 马蹄酥 in the morning because my medicine needs to take after food. My father came home early so we went to East Coast Sushi Tei for breakfast cum lunch cum dinner.

We ordered the sashimi set which is currently promoted as Hokkaido Winter dishes. There were hairy crab and salmon/squid/sweet prawn/abalone sashimi. Yummy... Luckily I felt better today and can eat them.

After the meal, we went to Parkway Parade. Guess what??? I bought an iphone 3Gs!!! I bought Sony Ericsson Satio phone just 2 months ago. However, I really find it difficult to use it to read my exchange emails. Reading is ok but forwarding/replying mails are troublesome and takes me a long time to type one mail. Therefore, I used my sister's line to re-contract and buy this phone. Trade-in my Sony Ericsoon X1 phone for $250 and used up my handset voucher of $120. Balance $348 to pay cash. After I settle down with this new iphone, I will sell away my Satio to cover the cash paid out. By doing this, I will back to zero cash used up for the 2 phones.

Frankly speaking, Satio is a very good phone. If I need not use phone to read exchange emails, I will definitely stick to this phone. The camera function is super good. Too bad that I cannot keep her with me for long.

Next, we went to VivoCity. I left some VivoCity vouchers which will expire this month. Therefore, decided to use them to buy 2 new house phones. Since there was balance, I used it to buy anti-glare screensheet and protector cover for my new phone.

As we took dinner so early, we went to Food Republic for some light food before heading home. My parents enjoyed the food we ordered (Rojak, Chicken wings, Kueh Pati and Roti Prata).

Will start to explore my new phone now. Hee hee...

Tired day

Very tired since morning. I slept at almost 3am and woke up at 7am. Just 4 hours of sleep. Not enough uh. Was trying to solve my sister's laptop problem and end up sleeping so late.

Whole day feeling so sleepy. My colleague said that my eyes become one straight line and cannot open wide. Glad that today is a bit relaxing and no additional tiredness add onto me.

Managed to leave office early today at 7.30pm (actually can be 7pm but was digging out some old emails that wasted the 30mins) as I am keen to know what has happened to my sister's laptop.

After exploring, I finally solved the mystery of her DVD CD-Rom auto removal problem. Think she had accidentally click wrong button that caused that to happen. Now left with her slow startup problem. Her data is lessor than mine but her laptop takes longer time to startup. Strange....

Need technical support

Quite a peaceful Monday for me. Not a lot of urgent matters for me to settle hence I could take my own pace to complete all tasks. My blood pressure should be below borderline today. Ha ha...

The only thing that made me panic during evening time was : my email account was locked!!! Luckily my IT colleague was still around and helped me to monitor and unlock it. Otherwise, I cannot read my emails and access to our network. In simple wordings : CANNOT WORK. This will be a disaster for me if it really happens.

Back home, my sister gives me an assignment to be her technical support. Of course I am not an expert but... definitely better than her. Ha ha...

Her laptop has this problem where she cannot locate her DVD CD-Rom drive. After figuring out, it appears that the harddisk drive is automatically removed each time her pc boot up. Strange... Need to find out how to clear this problem. Shall ask for SOS from 小珠. Her IT knowledge is better than mine a lot. Hee hee.
