Stayed up till 230am to watch the Beoing 787 make it’s maiden flight and when the alarm clock rang at 530am i quickly realize it wasn’t such a good idea at all. But anyways, I got up before the snooze came back again.
Reason for getting my ass up so early?
To be able to reach this place on time. The legends!
The signature hole. Lost 2 balls from tee 
The weather was fine, as in it wasn’t raining, but the sun was doing one hell of a job of giving me skin cancer. Should have rested in the buggy more often because by the 14th hole I was pretty much worn out. So we finished the game at about 1, which was kinda slow. Went to this 金满楼 restaurant on the way back which was pretty good. It’s one of those rare occasion where you can eat steamed fish without that muddy taste.
After lunch we headed back to Tuas checkpoint. At our counter, was a lady immigration officer, look kinda like Jade Seah+丁小芹, with a pair of pink “brandless” spectacles and pink lanyard. When asked “Hey, your spectacles very nice huh, what brand one.” Reply: “Oh, brandless.” Suppose it’s a new brand on the market called brandless. Cute. 
Reached home at about 3, took a shower and went to bed immediately. Now, I’m having muscle aches here and there. NICE!
Health Screening 2008
Dec 15th
Went for health screening today at Raffles Hospital and I’m kinda surprise that the place was really crowded. Spent most of the time waiting and I still have to go back in Jan to do some scan and get the final report from the doctor.
Anyways, I was please to know that there was a 10% discount when I was paying the bill. I was expecting to be over $700.
Why I’d rather be punched in the testicles than call customer service

[L4D2] Update Left 4 Dead 2 to v2.0.0.7 + Garena
Dec 12th
There are several versions of L4D2 available for download right now but updating it to be able to work on Garena is the same.
Install the following in the correct order.
Patching to v2.0.0.7
Install this v2.0.0.7 file to your root L4D2 directory. Eg. C:\Program Files\Left4Dead2\
Patching standalone
Install the L4D2SP 1.G file to your root L4D2 directory also.
Installing the standalone will prompt you to choose your nickname for the game. Alternatively you can change it by looking at some ini files eg: stryder.ini for me, or use console, setinfo name NEWNICK
Setup Garena
Enter L4D2 room and go under settings. Select the left4dead.exe, and choose it as your Executable Setting.
Next, for Game Boostrap Parameters. Enter: +sv_allow_lobby_connect_only 0 +sv_lan 1
It should look something like this.
Have Fun !
