Because of the weather, I've had dry cough. And nakaka-3 cough syrup na ako, parang walang effect.
Anyone here at SG who knows where I can buy Solmux?

naku sis mukhang wala nyan dito. yung mga gamot  dito walang bisa! as in hehe

kaya  kami bumibili  talag ng  maramihan pag uuwi ng  pinas  or  mag papabili nalang sa  mga kakilala. Like,  bioflu, amoxicilin, etc.

mga sis ask ko lang po. i'm currently here in SG. meron na po bang nakapag-try magpa-ship ng gluta from pinas going here? I'm planning to buy kasi e wala naman dito ng gluta ko so sa pinas pa ako oorder. ask ko lang may maximum allowable quantity po ba? and wala na po bang papers na kelangan? thank you!

[kwistiee]

^sis dati gusto magpa-ship ng nanay ko ng gamot para sa thyroid problem ko,so nagpunta siya sa LBC ayaw tanggapin, hindi daw sila nagsship ng gamot.. same goes with DHL..

[mystique]

^^ my brother had his epilepsy meds shipped here in SG before, no problems whatsoever.  may mga companies nga yata na ayaw tumanggap, kesyo may papers pa na kelangan daw etc, ganun daw kasi sa qatar where he was formerly based, but here in SG no need as long as for personal use lang.

And sis I always buy gluta from Amazon US, never naman ako nagkaproblem with shipping, 3 bottles at a time ako magpaship.   And I always buy all my vitamins from Amazon, minsan I hoard so mga 6+ bottles per vitamin, no problemo

[kRiStAh]

^thanks sis for the response! that's good to hear. btw, i thought within US lang nagshiship ang amazon?
Thanks sis! I guess i'll push through the transaction na to get my gluta. thanks again sa response!

[mystique]

you're welcome.  amazon ships some of their items internationally.  but i use borderlinx for my purchases coz its much cheaper and i can buy anything i want.

hi!!!super sarap ng buhay sg...super enjoy ako almost  5 yrs rin kmi kaya, [textspeak!] need ng much better one kaya need to transfer sa UAE..panibagong pakikipasapalaran..i really miss sg lalo na mga mall at syempre lahat ng mga friends ko.

[mystique]

^ I agree sis.. 3 1/2 years nko here and my fiance naman almost 5 years na.. we love here in SG too and it has given so much to us.  We feel na we are being paid much more than what we really deserve hehe..

Anyways, sometimes nakakasawa na rin talaga dito.. Kaya every chance we get, kahit long weekend lang, we go out of the country talagal..

 I think SG talaga is mid-way lang eh.. a place to stay for a couple of years then move on to another country..  I have tons of friends who have done that and feels the same way as I do too..

yun lang.. just sharing.. you're moving to UAE because of work or nagdecide lang talaga kayo to uproot here?

[kwistiee]

^sis I agree with you. halos same ang length ng stay natin sa SG, and napapaisip narin kami ng husband ko na lumipat sa ibang bansa. SG is a very nice place, napaka-lapit sa pilipinas and mura pa ang airfare, unlike sa mas malayong bansa, mas bihira ang uwi sa pinas. there are times na bored na ako sa SG, hindi ko alam kung bakit. parang wala ka ng mapuntahan, but I need to stay nandyan kasi ang work.

@sis mystique super miss ko talga ang sg..We decide to move here kasi mas maganda ang offer..then medyo mas ok yong compensation at benefits until now nasa stage pa rin ako ng adjustment..super hirap ng transportation dito compare sa sg...wish ko [textspeak!] hindi mahirapan  ang anak kong magadjust here..kasi nammiss nya yong mga friends at park sa sg na wala sa UAE.

[imnuttz]

sisses, pano ba yung simcard dyan? may nabibili ba kagad na microsim card for ip4? or kailangan ko pa ipa-punch yun? san kaya?

[mystique]

^^ so true.  We're thinking of migrating to Canada or Australia, meron din kasi magpepetition for us if we want to.. Pero parang ang hirap din magstart from scratch na naman. hehe lalo na comfortable naman buhay namin dito.. i just feel na this is not the place where i want to raise my family.. :p

[Grayce]

^same sentiments, it's not really a good place to raise a family. IMO pang single lang ang singapore. sa taas ba naman ng cost of living and wala naman family benefits like australia or canada, talo talaga kaya madaming locals rin umaalis dahil din sa factor na yan. and they don't give importance to their senior citizens.
