Downloaded Google Chrome last night and am quite satisfied with its no-frills design and functionalities. Will use it at work because of its supposed better memory management... because my office laptop complains about low memory when all I have opened is two IE windows and Windows Messenger >.<" The laptop has 1GB of RAM... and runs like a snail ( Read more... )

Monday and Tuesday: 'N' levels oral time-keeping (after school)
Wednesday and Thursday: NCC Part A Camp Feast (full day)
Friday: Course (after school)

At a total cost of SGD100, I got for myself three injections... tetanus, typhoid and flu, as well as malaria pills that will have to be taken for 1.5 months, one tablet per week. >.There should really be subsidies for money ( Read more... )
