Medical Exam, Microwave, MBTI and MI3!

After nearly 2 months, we have got a medical exam Wednesday next week. It’s one of the last few things required for the long term stay. Got xrays and all that. In hindsight, it was good that my blood pressure was brought down to normal while we were in Spore. Gotta thank the TCM doctor who gave me hardcore medication coz it took only a month to work. Do keep us in your thoughts and prayers. :-)

We have given up buying a cheap microwave. It’s too difficult. Anything in the 99€ range is sold out everywhere. Our landlord is going to order a mattress for us coz on the day we wanted to order one from Ikea, they changed everything in their website and, voilà! the mattress size we wanted disappeared.

We finally got our personal account yesterday (woohoo!). And got ourselves a VISA debit card. The debit card also has either a spending limit of 1.5k€ or 3k€ per week (so that people don’t overspend?). It’s so interesting, the guy at the bank said that most folks here don’t use credit cards. I didn’t get to tell him about the weekend credit card sales we have in Orchard Road. He would have thought we were from another planet.

Did something this week as a couple. We revisited our MBTI (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) personality profiles at http://www.personalitypage.com/ and checked out our inherent weaknesses. Apparently, my type takes everything personally and Jo is hardly in touch with her feelings. So ISTJ Jo and ENFP Wes have started re-egineering their thought and judgement processes to function as balanced human beings.

PS : We just finished MI 3 few minutes ago. Great that JJ Abrams saved the day, classic Alias. Good to see Tom Cruise finally acting.

Seems like you guys have settled down, now to get the revenue flowing in...

Redoing that ABCD test can see change in result over time?
