we all commonly know about the free Wireless@SG service, but it will be free till december 2009, but however, iDA extended it! yay! that should be good news to all free Wireless@SG users and also for those who does not have internet access at home. which its till 2013.

that would also save me money in getting the vodaphone M1 wireless or the Starhub Maxmobile wireless. hahah. thats great.

next up, wanting to experience optic fibre high speed network up to 1Gbps? yeah. thats the Singapore’s Next Generation National Broadband Network (NGNBN).

This fibre optic platform will be the key foundation of the NGNBN, which is part of the Intelligent Nation 2015 or iN2015 blueprint to turn Singapore into a sophisticated city with seamless connectivity. OpenNet will deliver a resilient and robust fibre platform at least two and a half years ahead of schedule of the iN2015 vision, positioning for completion by 2012.

Being the foundation of the NGNBN, OpenNet will provide a competitive, yet neutral environment for all downstream operators, enabling the delivery of ultra-high speeds network of 1Gbps and above.

thats about it. OpenNet got the bid, which is a joint venture of four partners – Axia NetMedia (Axia), Singapore Telecommunications (SingTel), Singapore Press Holdings (SPH) and SP Telecommunications (SPT).

That means, it would be expensive subscription again. and i prefer starhub, as it would be alot cheaper, and yeap.

this was all how it was going… the previous week we were assigned FOM (marketing) PBL projects to work on. so then was rather difficult to attempt it this time, as i was not as straight forward as previously, so had really a hard time brainstorming for ideas.

after that week, there comes the ITAB (IT) PBL project, the tutor was like targeting people, and after the first two group leaders kena sar-bo, sherman and choon chor, then my turn, i was like quietly doing my work, and secretly playing face book at the same time, then he was like, looking at me, then i slowly turn over, and back again, then he say, you. whats your name? then i was like.. i dun want. so i gave him a “i dun want to do face”, then he replied, this one have to do one, so yeah. i said my name, “terence.” so then next was clara and zheng qiang (aka. zhuang qiang) hahaha. LOL.

so yeah. finally, after 2 weeks of wanting to relax by going swimming, seems that god doesnt want me to take a break, and wants me to be ever-hardworking. god made it rain every friday, or make me have a super packed and busy schedule on friday. lol.

and YES! i broke thru’ it and found relaxation, how? this is how i do it… check it out…

today was really a busy day. with all the FOM group meetings, and blah… i told myself, im going swimming this week no matter what. and yeah. was so suay again ah. when i reached woodlands, was going to rain, after looking at the dark gloomy sky so was telling myself. suck man. this would be demoralizing me once again, since i always wanted a break, so i insisted in going. haha. lol. and yeah, went there at 3:45PM. and yeap. started swim and all that. lol. i pray hard enough to god that i would not rain. and it came true. haha.

after that, at 6, i went back to causeway point to meet jieying. and yeap. guess what? for a MOVIE! haha. MONSTERS VS ALIENS. went to makan and all that since im hungry after a swim. and then went up to buy tickets for 9PM show. then i went to queue up for tickets, was rather long. and dreadful. but guess who i saw? the one who was a cashier over there, and served me after that, it was Tze Yang. haha. lol. was like omg. haha. and yeah. after buying tickets and all.

since it was still early, so strolled down to timezone and look at people playing those DDR, omg. one guy has like a super leg, and when he dance, he got like COMBO of 300+ omg. ah. and was like some monkey on the machine, seems that he is really pro. he can even turn rounds the DDR and still get combo hits. lol. after that, we went to see the sweet machine. lol. and yeah. 2 persons got jackpot and the items they put in this time are more worth it then the cheapo sweets they put it. now i even saw chocolate bars, small lunchboxes and all that. so cool ah.

when it was 8:50PM, we went in and sat there, was awaiting for my popcorn to arrive, since the show started soon at 9PM sharp, was wondering,…. where is my popcorn and drinks? omg. was like sianed. and yeah. finally, here it is, haha. lol. but to my astonishment, you know who served me my popcorn? was Marcus Lee. omg. was super duper shocking. lol. and yeah. overall, the movie was great and was really funny, i really like the show and was hilarious.

after the show, jieying went to the toilet, and was at the lift lobby waiting for her. and when she came out, and was about to leave, guess who i saw this time? haha. was CHR staff. Roy and Jayshree. haha. i thought they came together, and i went over to talk to them, they was like asking me. what movie you watched? i said, “monsters vs aliens”. then they were like omg. i was like why? haha. so yeah, in the end, we all watched the same movie, but roy, jayshree, me were all seating at different locations. and yeah.

overall. it was a great day, and i really enjoy the day and relaxed at the same time.

SERVICE on the Circle Line was disrupted for about 10 minutes on Thurday on its first day of operations.

The Straits Times understands that the power went out after lunchtime, and a train with passengers on board was stuck in the tunnel. It was moved to Bishan MRT and passengers were evacuated within four minutes.

Service on both sides of the line was down for about 10 minutes before it resumed.

Trains started rolling through the line’s first five stations – Marymount, Bishan, Lorong Chuan, Serangoon and Bartley – on Thursday morning, with the first train arriving at 6 am.

Read the full report here: http://www.straitstimes.com/Breaking%2BNews/Singapore/Story/STIStory_382808.html

The patients are being treated at the Communicable Disease Centre at Tan Tock Seng Hospital (TTSH).

Their symptoms are relatively mild and all of them are in stable condition, said a statement from Ministry of Health on Thursday night.

More to come.

The Ministry of Health confirmed a 22 years old Singaporean woman who returned from New York by the plane of SQ25 has tested positive for swine flu ( influenza A ( H1N1 ) ) .

The woman was in New York from 14 of May to 24 of May. At the point of the time,she has developed a cough.
She passed the thermal scanner at the airport because she was not having a fever.
She did consulted the doctor later and was directed to a hospital that handles suspected swine flu cases.

The patient is currently being treated at the Communicable Disease Center at Tan Tock Seng Hospital and is in stable condition

The Ministry Of Health asked all medical practitioners and health care institutions to keep vigilant to suspect cases, adding that Singapore will continue with temperature screening for passengers entering Singapore.

this is like super dangerous. we seem to be too complacent, and ignore all kinds of danger, i think after this, i would really maintain even higher standards of personal hygiene.

Just to a note:
ALERT LEVELS

WHO ALERT PHASE: 5
Widespread human infection

MOH ALERT SYSTEM: YELLOW

Risk of import into Singapore elevated. Isolated imported cases may occur but there is no sustained transmission.

Look at the news: http://www.straitstimes.com/Breaking%2BNews/Singapore/Story/STIStory_382278.html

then i overslept on the train and went to admiralty, and so i took the return train back to woodlands. after alighting at woodlands, was wanting to meet jieying. so yeah. she was like in the toilet, and the fire alarm rang…

i was reacted normal, since it might just be a small incident as normally you do hear false alarms in school, shopping centres, even commercial buildings. and yeah. was waiting outside long john silvers.

then yeah. saw xinli with her, and yeah. so we walked out of causeway point, and at the same time, we heard over the public announcement saying that “We are accessing situation, and ask the people in the mall to stay calm and do not use the lift till further notice.” so i treated it as a false alarm. so  jieying wanted to come my house to do RJ and spend some time.

at about 5:40PM so yeah. xinli wanted to top up her ezlink card, and thereafter, we saw smoke coming out from the mall, and one aunty beside us was saying that the alarm sounded the third time. i was like thinking …. hmm… the management accessing the situation, then smoke coming out from the building at level 4~5 at the carpark area, and they can treat it as a “calm situation”? omg. and yeah. we carried on to see whats happening, so we went around, and still see people walking in and out of causeway point, as if nothing has happened.

thereafter, about 5 mins after we walked to the other side of the building, near metro area, we got the feel of the bruning smell, it seems to be some machines being burnt? so thereafter, the fire-engines from the civil defence came. was so cool. lol. haha. but it seems that they are really slow in respose, all at their own pace. so then after, the management, seems to do something, by asking the metro staffs to evacuate out of the building. so after that, we got kind of bored, and walked into causeway point, to see whats really going on. since there was no sign of smoke after awhile. so we went in to causeway, and i rang simply.shamus. hahaha. so yeah. that was like 6:05PM, people still in the mall. LOL! then was like. cool ah. see people rushing down, but seems that there was no fire? and yeah. the side where popular, timezone.

heard it was from raffles dental clinic, and some blogs can even say that was from level 2~3, but to me, confirmed! level 4~5, since that was the place on fire. look at the photos:

location outside timezone, near raffles dental clinic

then we walked over to the metro and courts area, only seeing that these few areas, the “fire safety measures of the building was then put in place. the evacuation of the whole mall only take place at about 6:10PM and yeah. at then was like i saw the police talking to 2 guys, seems like the police was holding some “fire hazardous stuffs” not sure if they were culprits or assisting in investigations.

people was like asking the security guards and management about the fire, but however, the security guards are so rude and answered a probably curious man “This is a real fire. How many times you want me to tell you.” This was what the security guard replied. I seriously find it disturbing, since they should at least answer the questions from the public. Another security guard answered another lady, “…. This is so much I can tell you, I won’t answer anything more.”

after that i headed back home, and yeah on the way back, passing by civic centre, seems that lots of people queuing up for lerk thai, macdonalds, and also the cafe in the library, seems that food really does matter to us! haha. lol.

thats about it.

I’m back blogging, but however, this time, i got an interesting piece of article to share, since i just gotten a email hoax that is being forwarded to me.

This was the email:

Then i was wondering, when did ERICSSON started producing laptops? omg. and SONY bought over ERICSSON long time ago, so after which, started google-ling, and found out these articles.

http://uptech-it.com/mobile-phone-news/ericsson-t18-laptop-scam.html
http://www.scamtypes.com/the-sony-ericsson-free-laptop-hoax.html

This press release from ERICSSON will confirm that, this is totally bullshit and its a hoax/scam to trick gullible people: Heres the official word from Ericsson : http://www.ericsson.com/ca/hoax.shtml

1. I couldn’t believe how gullible people are. In these day and age, who would give away anything for free.

2. Sony Ericsson only manufactures mobile phones.

3. Ericsson T18 and Ericsson R320 are older models that have now been discontinued, which are mobile phones and not laptops.

ERICSSON T18

ERICSSON R320

3. Chain letters are a technique used by spammers to gather email addresses. Every time you forward this email to your friends, your email address and theirs is getting added to the main text of this email that will eventually get in the hands of hundreds of people you don’t even know. Eventually, you’ll receive more spam emails just like the Ericsson T18 laptop scam.

Before getting your hopes up and before forwarding this kind of junk, it’s so easy to find out the truth by simply searching on search engines. It only takes 30 seconds. Please just use your friendly piece of tool, called the google search engine.

Currently, i’m now helping my friend to look for Part Timers.
