Asus K43SV and Windows 10 Update

Long long time ago, there was a free upgrade to Windows 10 from Windows 7. I quickly grabbed the offer and after the update, my audio isn't working anymore. I searched the Internet for fixes and the suggestions online didn't work for me.

So last weekend, I decided to reformat this laptop once and for all. I tried downloading the iso file but since my Windows is bundled with my laptop, I had to use the recovery provided by Asus. I was expecting my recovery disk would still be Windows 7 but to my surprise, it's Windows 10! I still gave it a go and after a few hours, my machine's OS is reinstalled successfully. The best part of re-installation is the audio! There's sound now! Hallelujah!

I recently converted my TapForMore points to KrisFlyer miles. The processing time is really fast. How fast? Instant!

Singapore Airlines and iOS Passbook (Wallet)

I flew with Singapore Airlines from Singapore to Manila and vice versa. Before my flight, I used their to mobile app checkin and tried saving the boarding pass to my passbook. While I was trying to save the boarding pass, a problem occurred! I wasn't able to take the screenshot of the error but luckily, the boarding pass was added to my Wallet app!

On my return flight to Singapore, I noticed that the option to save it to Wallet is disabled.

Too bad I wasn't able to get one to add to my collection.

Silk Air and iOS Passbook (Wallet)

Too bad Silk Air doesn't have support for iOS Passbook. The boarding pass you get after checking in online is in PDF and cannot be loaded to your Passbook app. I hope they will support this soon since Singapore Airlines has already implemented this type of service.

Where to Buy Panasonic DJ-10A Nozzle in Singapore?

I always wanted a water irrigator since I was a kid. When I saw this Panasonic oral irrigator on sale at Isetan for $48 (U.P. $69), I quickly grabbed and bought it.

This thing works wonders. The only problem I have is, I can't find replacement nozzles here in Singapore. I will try scout for these nozzles for a few months. If all else fails, my last resort is to buy from Amazon.

Update (07/01/2015)
I was able to buy the nozzle at Takashimaya. They're selling 2 nozzles for $6.90.
