these 15 numbers can save you.

Extract from email:
There is a way to check the serial number of your phone by keying in *#06# where a 15-digit number will appear on the screen. Please record it down and keep it for reference.
In case the phone is lost, the rightful owner can call the service provider to disable the phone by providing the serial number.
That means, the person who took the phone cannot use it at all even if they were to insert a new SIM card.
If everyone knows this procedure, there would not be much use taking away someone's phone.

Advertisement-driving instructor available

i know i should be sleeping now cos i'll be driving tmr.
sure, i think it's cool to drive on the road; i drove myself home from Ubin test Centre(of cos with instructions from my uncle)
I'm learning manual, so there's the clutch to deal with. If you release your clutch too fast, the engine will die. Too slow, and the vehicle behind will horn (luckily, so far i've not heard any). If you hesitate, you will be performing a drving technique, which my uncle describes as-- a-go-go. The car will jerk in a dancing manner.. haha :)

Maybe i'm a slow learner. I've only learn the basics of driving and i did a U-turn behind my house within 3 lessons.Alas, my father drives an auto, so can't use his car to practice.

Anyway, anyone interested in learning driving, feel free to contact me.
My uncle's a driving instructor. Well, i think his fee is quite reasonable, and relatively cheaper than those in driving schools. He is patient and is open to suggestions. What's more, you will be having a personal teacher who knows your pros and cons. In schools, you may be allocated to different instructors everytime you go for driving lessons, just like joyce's school.

yupe, not feeling all that slacky these past few days.
i've quited my peanut paying guardian job.
Gotten myself a new part-time job as a clinic assistant; interesting anecdotes included
and a new full-time job; dealing with taxes.
