Try eat dry plums or raisins and wash it down with apple juice. If all fails then go to pharmacy and ask for Mucilin. Don't worry, it's just a dietary fibre . My doctor describe it as an equivalent of lots and lots of vegetables without the difficulty of eating them. He was under the assumption that...

funshiting, Thank you for your support :) And yes, I do have scars but Dr. Khoo did a very good job with it. He made the incisions in such was that only the vertical line down the nipple and some horizontal line on bottom side that's really visible (unless you really try to look closely below the br...

...especially if it's pure for cosmesis. I don't know about anyone else but I do not see breast reduction as cosmetic surgery. I had 4 cup sizes reduced (just over 3 lbs of breast tissue removed). It took me years (over 10 years) to consider getting this procedure done as it is not a simple procedu...

At the moment the breast are at cup small D but might still reduce when all swelling is gone. I thought about having the surgery in Thailand simply because it was...

Beginner's Yoga in East Coast

Can anyone recommend me where I can take beginner's yoga class in east coast area ? (near parkway parade). I know that Planet Fitness offer this class but only once a week and it's in the evening. I'm looking for a class that's held during the day really.

Many thanks for all the help in advance.

I would recommend your brother to get himself a portable nebuliser. Then go to your GP and ask him to prescribe the medicines to be used with the nebuliser. I have my nebluiser (Omron U22) for over 3 years now and I would not travel without it. It's compact, light and quiet (unlike the conventional ...

jasmine_g , try Somerset Bencoolen. We paid SGD 240 ++ per night (based on 2 weeks stay) for 1 bed room apartment. I know it's not exactly cheap but it's not as high as the other service apartments and it's much better than a hotel room.

HSBC has a multi-currency bank account. They don't care how much money you put in there. :)
That's true. That's what we did. We open the account (EUR and SGD) and then we wire our euro money into the account and leave in the account as EUR. Much safer way.

Rental deposit advice

Is it a common practice that the landlord require 3 months deposit for 2 years lease? The property is 3 bedroom fully furnished at $4.8K. We have always been under the impression that deposit is 2 months for 2 years lease and 1 month for 1 year lease. Basically we now have to pay total of 4 months r...

Interesting post, I was just searching the web to find somewhere to go to surf. I guess you are way out of my league. I'm a beginner and taught myself. I'd be interested in joining up when I get a bit better or tagging along now if you'll have me? Em naw, think it would be good to get a good crew t...
