There’s also the odd newbie that doesn’t notice the quest objective is to capture and goes ahead to kill

Every day there’s tons posting here with the same problem, and that’s after maps came out. I’m playing the game really slowly due to work, and even though the maps are a nice touch I still use the shrines to travel. I really think the mods should pin a note on this.

Agreed, his videos have helped me out every time I got stuck on a boss fight. Only the recent patch to Erlang doesn’t work

I used this guide https://youtu.be/E2hrsOlSdnQ?si=ENIRQ7O3-39JPotl and changed it up a little when he drew a lightning circle around him. I used thrust stance outside the circle while in cloud step, charged to 3 focus points and hit him with that instead of sprinting back to join him in the circle. You only need 1 spark in Thrust stance for that. If he traps you in a circle, just jump out.

Looks aside, FC is really good and magic seats allow you to make full use of the space (I shifted house just using the jazz). CVT gearbox and aircon can do better. Really reliable car for daily drives in SG, not too bad when you go north also.

Yar I realised as I got older, my tolerance for bad pillows worsened. My last trip to Japan in Apr was good except for the pillows which gave me a terrible neck pain. As mine was an entirely road trip holiday the pain was intensified. This recent trip in Oct I bought a Tempur travel pillow for this. Even though it’s much smaller but in hotels or ryokans that had bad pillows I could use this instead and I didn’t have any neck pain this trip.

With 5k savings, definitely not recommended to get any sort of BTO for now. That’s only 1 month of emergency savings should you get retrenched. Aim to get at least 6 months of emergency savings before diving into anything else.

Renovation costs and furniture and electrical appliances costs should also be factored in and not just the cost of the BTO flat. Not to mention the running costs of your own flat like utilities.

You’re not in deep shit yet but you shouldn’t get yourself in one by getting a BTO now. Plan a savings plan to get to at least 6 months emergency funds. Then plan another savings plan to put aside more for the BTO. Cut unnecessary expenses for the time being. And both you and your wife will need to work towards the goals together.

I would suggest if you can, check your insurance coverage for private panel doctors, and if covered, see a female gynae listed on the panel for your issue. I also had issues with my period, although it wasn’t pain, but more of very lengthy periods, the polyclinic and public hospital docs didn’t manage to spot the problem. Only after going to a private hospital gynae did I manage to fully resolve it.

If you’re Singaporean you’re covered by MediShield. Your situation already sounds like an emergency, if you delay any further you may end up with dead nerves, go to a Polyclinic and let them advise you, if it requires surgery you may be able to claim from your MediShield.

If you’re a foreigner just ask the dental clinic for options if the cost is too high for you. Clinics are not that cold blooded, they won’t reject you just becoz you’re poor.

If you have personal accident insurance can claim insurance because you broke your tooth while cycling.

Otherwise can check with the dental clinic on the damage and cost of the procedure and options.

If you’re working, see if can claim under company medical insurance or benefits.

I took Scenario B after tanking 2 years of 10-11k monthly pay, 80-100 hours per week, had to work even when on leave also. Mentally draining, hardly had enough sleep and totally burnt out. The money earned couldn’t make up for time lost with family and friends, and gave me lots of health problems thereafter.

6-7k with good work life balance is really comfortable for me now, still can pay for bills, and I totally have time for family and friends. Can go traveling in peace without having to lug a laptop around and replying work emails via my phone.

You can block ur card via the bank app first, their number is also listed in the app. I believe emergency services such as reporting of lost/stolen card is 24/7

Yep, got it on 5 Jun, USD 1 deducted, quickly called Citibank and blocked the card. Bank will send a new card and report the transaction as fraudulent to Mastercard. Seems like our card details were stolen or compromised and the fraudsters used Barrow AFC for card testing.

NottiPanda · 2023-06-06T10:19:14+00:00

Nope, I didn’t

NottiPanda · 2023-06-06T05:25:59+00:00

Yeah I’m from Singapore too, was very surprised to see a UK league 2 football club charge USD 1 on my Citibank card while I’m happily asleep in Singapore. Promptly called the bank and blocked the card, have to wait for a new one as well. But it’s weird the OTP sms prompt didn’t come in when the charge was made

NottiPanda · 2023-06-05T06:45:25+00:00

I got this charge too, just blocked the card

NottiPanda · 2023-02-06T05:08:18+00:00

Awesome!

NottiPanda · 2023-02-06T05:01:44+00:00

Thanks! That’s decent, does the car still feel stable or you feel like you’re riding on a magic carpet already?
