Alternative ATMs.

I always see long queues at UOB ATMs, while no one is using the OCBC ATMs (if you noticed, they are always quite nearby). Eg. The OCBC ATM at Yishun MRT is always free, same applies to that at AMK MRT. Either most people do not know, or they choose not to use, you can withdraw cash from OCBC ATMs using a UOB ATM Card. This is quite convenient, considering there are not many OCBC account holders out there, compared with the three other local banks, there's no need to queue. But please be warned that there'll be a 30 cents surcharge for using OCBC ATM with your UOB Card. I am not sure whether its monthly or for a certain number of transactions. If you consider time is money, or the UOB ATM is out of service, 30 cents is definitely worthed it!

Updated: "For locally shared ATMs, the first two transactions of the month are free. Subsequent withdrawals are charged at S$0.30 each." - Thanks KingMeng ;)

The Bridal Dowry.

The delivery of dowry ( 送嫁妆 ) is another important custom. It represents parent's effort for her daughter to have a good life after marriage and prepare her with the necessities for being a good wife. I am amazed by some of the things included in the dowry. Of course, in our modern living, we will not be using some of those things... Nevertheless, I think it is all good to have them, as each item carries a good meaning for our blissful marriage. :-)

I Will Be Back With More Time.

It is more than two years since I last blogged! Not that nothing interesting happened. In fact, plenty happened! Shifted house, shifted office, boys grew, had Hand Foot Mouth Disease (ouch!)! Just to name a few. There were gains and losses. Life's ups and downs. Of me, and those around me. I haven't been doing much deep thinking and thus less writing. Not enough time? That is probably an excuse. But it is true that I have not slept well for quite awhile. It is hard to explain the stress from work, where nothing goes smooth, and every step forward is a hurdle. Technology also had made it simple and addictive for us to mindlessly share. Share our thoughts in bits and pieces. Forming persona of ourselves to acquaintances and friends I hardly meet anymore. I remember experimenting with Tumbler, finding ways to post once, publish everywhere. It didn't quite work out. Even when technology made it is so easy, I have not been diligently editing and uploading photos of my darlin

The Last 24 Hours, Twenty-Thirteen.

If you were wondering... Yes I did it for the fifth time on the eve of New Year. Just two of us, made the journey from Marina Bay Financial Centre to Kampung Glam, via the newest Downtown line. You can see my photos here . Still looking for people to join us end of this year. :)
