(picture are from www.hardwarezone.com/articles/view.php?cid=18&id=2670)

At the stroke of midnight to 22 Aug, Iphone finally arrived at our shore. Fans had waited since the launched of Iphone 1st generation, and today Singaporean fans can finally buy from Singtel store. As for the launch, fans have been start queueing up as early as 12 hours before, and probaby now enjoying sliding their iphone with their finger...

Although it launched on my birthday, It will be nice if Singtel offer me as a birthday present, after all I also a Singtel customer for so long... (Don't mind to have one more since I already owe one, can use as back up phone... you all know how "long life" is the battery...)

My most expensive handphone bill

After getting my most expensive phone (in Mar), most expensive watch (in June) now come my most expensive handphone bill to date.

Thaks to my most expensive phone "clever" design to use internet, check email even GPRS is disable in setting... (if WIFI is disable but it will not auto enable to check email, wonder if there a conspiracy between telco and apple)

After occurance of 30+ and now 70+ buck of data usuage, I decide to cancel my GPRS to prevent any further damage...

And then came my credit card bill with no payment and a 5 buck rebate from GSS...

So there is a sliver lining in every cloud...

My own fin (at last)

Finally got to add to my basic dive equipement, fin.
Buying fin is such a headaches where different people give different reviews and comments... after so many turning rounds, finally bought the fin which I did not expect to get.

At first, was aiming for Force Fin, but found out the cost is almost half of my D6 (dive computer), Then switch to Scubapro Jet Fin Revo, jap ver. of Jet Fin, then to Jet Fin because of price again, But Jet Fin did not fit comfortable in my large bootie, and realised that my bootie size too large (which I reckless bought at ADEX08).

Switch to TUSA Tri-ex, Mares Super Channel, Apollo Bio-Fin and finally Atomic Aquatics Split Fin, recommend by friend of dive shop happen to be there, which happy fit comfortable with my new correct size bootie

And thus the marriage went well and alas I bought it both...

My 1st YouTube

Finally got to post my 1st video in YouTube...
Seem my goal to IM getting near...Haha

Euro 08

Germany Euro 08 Team

This goal that caused Germany of Euro 08 Cup by Spain, Torres at 33 mins

After 4 years, 2 International Cup, still can't wear my Germany jersey proudly...
as Germany lost to Spain by 0-1 in the Euro Cup 08... (Spain is arguely good and Germany not that bad either, and poor Ballack miss that goal otherwise it would be a draw. He really "Bo Luck" in this game...)

Have been Germany fan since my poly time, after I was selected to study german language... since then have been craze about Germany, dreaming to get into exchange program, if I score German Language distinction but ended up my result was passable...

Since 2006 World Cup, have been starting supporting DFB by buying jersey, bought training and authenic home jersey (which cost 100+), but since lost to Italy in Semi-final and landed in 3rd place after wining to Portugal, I have not wear my the home jersey since then, only until this year, I wear to Taipei for holiday...

This time bought training jersey as didn't like the design of home jersey. At least I got to wear once before the match on Sunday...

My most expensive watch

Finally after 1 year of wait and planning, I got my my own dive com, Suunto D6

and I never bought such an expensive watch, before was my Casio Protek which cost less than 30% of the D6... (although I have fancy on Tag Heuer since my school day...)

I fall in love with D6 when I first saw it. I love the design, the time display... and it like what I looking for my ideal watch...

It time to buy D6 as I going to Manado Trip in August, after all I wanted to have my own dive com, which is important for diver, as they can monitor their depth and timing in water...

This coming sat I going to test water on my D6 and oso refresh my diving skill...

BYOB is not MYOB

We now have to mind the business

BYOB (Bring your Own Bag) is started on last year April and it been more one year, and from 4th June onward every Wednesday is BYOB day instead of once a weekly affair.

Plastic bags, not biogradable, have linked to global warming and recently everyone is complaining about the heat... Should we do something instead of complaining?

It time we do something, and Ikea have start the ball rolling by not providing plastic bag to every customers, instead customer have to paid for each plastic bag they took, It a great start.

Although we have to start this culture recently and not everyone is not comfortable but many do not realise it a problem. But if everyone start this as baby step i sure by next year, everyone will be comfortable with it.

Together we can save Gaia by reducing plastic-bag
Brought my re-usable bag to NTUC yesterday and got rebate for BYOB, not bad for BYOB. Why not start now...
