Happy Post Valentine’s Day
Posted By Lester Chan at 13:32 in Blog

Celebrated our 3rd Valentine’s day together. Gave her a heart shape chocolate ice cream cake from Swensen and a bouqet of 6 pink roses. Bought the flowers from a reseller in HWZ and they are reliable. Cheers to Flora De Petals. Flowers were delivered within time frame unlike last year where I also bought from a reseller in HWZ and the flowers are 1 hour late.

She gave me a home made Crystal Ball which is very nice and another present I like the most is the stack of miniature’s photos that shows the process of us from friends all the way to become couple. She is going to frame it up for me. Thank you dear <3

Went to Jurong Point for dinner, wanted to eat pizza hut, but after calculating the price I think Fish & Co will be more worth it. But end up I am wrong. The waitress told me that there is ala carte menu available but after ordering my food, the manager came and tell me they only serve Valentine Day’s menu and they jacked up the price by like more than $10.

There are only 2 menu, set menu for 1 at $29.90 and set menu for 2 at $60. I ordered the set menu for 2 and it came only with Seafood Platter for 2, 2 glasses of 3/4 filled drink and 2 tiny slices of cake and of course 2 pairs of valentine day key chain. After GST and all sort of charges, paid close to $70 for it and after calculating the price taken from the ala carte, the most it is only $55. Stupid Fish & Co, this will be my first and last time I will visit Fish & Co at Jurong Point.

Should have went to Millenium Walk to eat Outback instead like what we did last valentine’s day.

Road Pricing

I really like this quote:

When road pricing is going to be introduced in UK, more than one million signed an online petition. Source: Yahoo News.

When road pricing was first introduced in Singapore, more than a million people sucked thumbs. Source: HWZ Forums.

Perfume: The Story Of A Murderer
Posted By Lester Chan at 18:14 in Blog

Watched, Perfume: The Story of a Murderer, my first R21 (Rated for 21 years old and above) show. Show lasted quite long, I estimated about 2 hours and 45 minutes. The font part was a little bit draggy, but overall, the show was not bad, interesting storyline and the ending was like WTF.

Pre-ordered my collections edition of Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars from Software Boutique. Paid a $10 deposit and I didn’t even ask how much the game is because, I will buy it regardless of the price. I am a huge C&C fan and I collected almost all the C&C games. Hope C&C 3 will not be disappointing.

Ads On This Site
Posted By Lester Chan at 02:31 in Site

This site will be turning 5 on 24th March 2007, which falls on my birthday too. For the past 4 years+, I have been running this site using my allowance and sometimes my mom will pay for the hosting. Many readers asked me why not put ads on my site as I have pretty good site traffic.

I will never put ads on any of my personal site, now or in the future. This is like my hobby and I do not want to earn anything from my hobby. And the main reason for it is, I simply hate site with ads.

Also, I will always provide updates, and most importantly support, for my WordPress Plugins and PHP Scripts for free, rest assured that. I will also create more WordPress Plugins if time allows, I hope I can stop when the number of plugins I created reached 20 (current count is 13).

Just some message I want to let everyone knows =)

It is human’s nature, blame others rather than investigate what causes the problem and solve the problem.

Malaysia’s Dr M Backs Thailand Over Feud With Singapore
Posted By Lester Chan at 11:28 in Blog

As you all know Thailand’s relationship with Singapore has reached the all time low especially due to Shin Corp issues, Thaksin came to Singapore and of course Thailand defeat to Singapore (1-2) in yesterday soccer’s match.

To make matter worst Mahathir add oil to the already started fire. Anyway, I never like him in the first place. He is about 80, going to “up lorry soon” and still as usual being such a busybody.

Microsoft Windows Vista From NUS
Posted By Lester Chan at 15:59 in Blog

OMG, I just realized that I can get Microsoft Vista Business Edition from my school for FREE, I am downloading it now, too bad it comes in 5 CDs instead of 1 DVD, but it is better than nothing. I am still deciding to install it on my home computer or my laptop.
