Recently found another MP3 Download. Again thought it would be something different but end up disappointed. Wanted to sign up then notice this Terms and Conditions in the clause that reads.
================
Burns (i.e. CD burning) – You may “burn” each Digital Download up to 3 times only onto CD-R and/or CD-RW in order to create an audio compact disc in “Compact Disc – Digital Audio” Red Book format which is playable on an audio compact disc compatible player (3 “Burns”).
Ports – You may export or transfer each Digital Download to such portable media player devices or portable storage devices connected via your PC’s USB port a total of 3 times only; and provided that at such point in time the Digital Rights Management license utilised is able to bind to the Digital Download, to the device and to an identified account registered by you (“registered device”), each Digital Download will be exportable an unlimited number of times to each such registered device. For the avoidance of doubt, all transfers to portable devices are only enabled for a one-way transfer to each such device and are not transferable from such device to other devices, PCs or other digital media. (3 “Ports”)
===============
Noticed the "3 times only" in which I highlighted? DAMN... sometimes you don't want to keep the song in your mobile SD card coz it takes up space and after sometime you just want to remove the song to replace some other song you downloaded. Sigh... still back to square one... NO USE... lucky read this.. so no need to waste money and buy liao.

Why we BLOG?
With all the busy people and busy schedules we have, no wonder BLOGGING has become a popular way of communication with one another
I for one is one who blogs. I don't actually follow trends but after trying it, I find it to be a useful feature to have.
So why do people blog? Some blog due to the latest trend around while others blog due to source of release for stress from work. Then, there also those who blog to keep friends update what is going on with their lives. Seem to be a good way or a fast way to keep things up to date and also to share knowledge. No matter what you want to write on your blog, it is your blog! So guess everyones a writer on BLOGS!
So start your own Blog if you haven't had one yet! Share your knowledge and every thoughts to the WORLD!

MP3 Downloads
After several attempt of finding sources of LEGAL MP3 downloads, I can offically say I GIVE UP! This SUCKS! There are no LEGAL MP3 downloads here in Singapore besides the one Starhub offers.
Talking about the Starhub MP3 downloads, I have tried that and my review for that is its NO GOOD at all. First, you pay for the MP3 music download for say S$0.99 and it comes with a lock. After sometime, you just feel like listening to the music, you can't play it anymore coz the liscense is up, even you have it stored in your hard disk for some time. Never going to download from Starhub MP3 downloads again. Waste of money X(! Just don't understand why we are paying S$0.99 and still comes with a lock. Then what is the point of paying for MP3 downloads if we can only listen only a few times? Argh.....
Then one day, I found Amazon have MP3 downloads too. Was so happy that I finally found one that have many latest hits in MP3 format for download. Then notice this
==============================
At this time music downloads are only available to customers using a credit or debit card issued by a U.S bank with a U.S. billing address. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you. We're working to build a successful store on Amazon.com and hope to adapt it to our other Web sites in the future. Please continue to check back for additional information on supported locations.
===============================
Argh... this SUCKS BIG TIME!!! ... Must we have to waste money to buy a CD that have only few songs we want to listen and have to pay S$20.00 bucks for the CD? Argh.. this is so annoying!

About MRT
Singapore fastest train to anywhere here is MRT also known as Mass Rapid Transit. 10 over years ago, when MRT just started not long, when you travel by it, you can feel the cold air in your face and actually enjoy your ride to anywhere.
Today's MRT, especially during the early morning rush hours when people try to get to work, you can hardly feel the cold air in your face. What you actually feel is either the body odour or bad breath of some people's mouth. What is even worst is when someone fart, you can actually faint. Still, not forgetting if the train doesn't turn on the air-condition high enough, you feel like you are about to PUKE or FAINT.
Singapore have come to a stage where we are populated with people. These population don't really come from Singaporean alone. They come from all over the country of some which includes foreigners, and expats. So many people travelling by MRTs these days that the MRTs is always packed with people until the face can stick to the door just to get into the train to get to work. People area also pushing to get into the train even when there is no more space. Even when the next scheduled train comes in 2 mins, the MRT is also packed with people. As if you don't know if we are all clones coz the crowd never ends.
Then again, when evening hits, there is another rush hour again. Rushing to hit home to rest for the day! Again the MRTs are packed with people from all over. Still, frequency of the trains doesn't really help. Again the cycle goes all over again like during morning rush hours. For this reason, I always carry a medicated oil which in any case, somebody fart, some terrible smell, some bad breath, I would not PUKE or FAINT.
Ok ... some of the heavy crowds that people board MRTs are at Choa Chu Kang, Toa Payoh, and Ang Mo Kio. People get off the most is Jurong East (change train mah) Doby Ghaut (change train mah) , Orchard Road (office area mah), Raffles Place (another office area) , and City Hall (change train and also another office area).

In-Laws
Yesterday was Father-in-laws birthday. For a moment thought that this year would be good as no relative to join this birthday celebration. This relative I really dislike coz they are always late for dinner and always say 'Sorry' with the same excuse. Have no consideration for others and have no respect for my Father-in-law. However, as it turn out, my brother-in-law was late instead this year. Sigh ...lucky the restaurant still holding the table. When you are late for the reservered time, some restaurants just release the table. You can't actually blame them coz they also need to do business. Anyway, we watch the fireworks coz was fireworks day, at the restaurant. And most of all we enjoy the food.
