Pfizer covid-19 vaccine first shot done

Just so I can remember this "historical" moment.

I've completed my first shot on 26 Jun. This was probably the earliest slot that I find at my CC.

The wait

While my slot was at 4.30pm, I reached ~4pm (thanks to gojek for the free ride😊). When I reached the CC, it was pretty packed. Queued for around 5-10 mins before we were ushered to sit down. The whole process was orderly, and everyone were patient.

Seats were spaced apart in orderly manner and everyone was compliant. I think I only managed to enter the main hall for injection at around 5pm. 

Registration

Inside the main hall, I was ushered to the registration counter and passed my IC over for verification. They will ask if you are feeling ok and check if you have any known allergies.

Once registered, I was surprised to know that I'd head over to the booths for injections. Thought I'd need to wait again.

Booth for injection

Inside the booth, the nurse would verify your identity and ask the same questions - whether you feel ok, or any allergies. She also mentioned that it is normal to feel soreness and slight fever. If it persists, see the doc. I wasn't really paying much attention to her because I couldn't really hear well in the hall.

She later asked where I'd like my injection on to which I mentioned my left. Lifted my sleeve up and OUCH. It wasn't a smooth injection because it did hurt. Though the process may seem quick, the time she jabbed and removed the injection felt like slow motion for me.

I felt soreness immediately and was praying I would not have any adverse reactions.

30 mins wait after jab

I was then ushered to the seats to wait for 30 mins.

Used my phone to pass time. Thankfully, no reactions except soreness.

Exit counter 

Once 30 mins is up, I was called to the exit counters where the staff asked if I was feeling ok. She mentioned some common effects that would happen after the jab, but I wasn't really listening oops. She later passed me a bag and that was it! 3 packs of masks and one bottle of hand sanitizer.


Very appreciative of their gestures but I've a few sanitizer and don't use much! I doubt I'll wear the masks either. Any idea where I can donate them to?

SGD$1,000,000 networth unlocked 🎉

As of 8 Dec 2024, I have officially unlocked the milestone of $1m networth ðŸŽ‰ This is all thanks to the increased in value of my crypto holdings as well as my US stocks. My HK/CN stocks are still in bad shape. On stocks front, truthfully, my overall investments is still in the red. I had made mistakes in stock picking and has not taken the opportunity to cut losses. I had the view to hold and pray those stocks in deep red would go up - after all, I told myself I don't need the money right now. On crypto, given that BTC has bounced back, I'm sitting on decent profits. I've been cashing out bit by bit. The last I spoke in Mar , I cashed out a rather sizeable amount of BTC at 50% profit. On hindsight, if I had waited till now, I could have cash out 3000 SGD more. Anyway, this time round in Nov, I cashed out 2 times, at a 70%-80% profit. Not bad considering the rest of my investments. As long as there are no major global events impacting the markets negatively, I believe I woul...

🤞On track to hitting $950k networth by end 2024🤞

Another blink, another year ending soon. How have you guys been? I wonder who else is still monitoring my blog despite my lack of updates. Again, so much has happened, but not much have changed. I travelled well, continued with a 3rd round of IVF egg retrieval (result was extremely poor), and went through uncertainty at work due to restructuring but was thankfully able to keep my job. I still haven't fulfil my dream of being a mother. Though honestly, it now feels more like a checkbox to be unchecked than the actual fulfilment of wanting to nurture and grow a child. I think the weariness is getting too much. I will embark on my final transfer within these few months. This would be my 7th transfer. If it fails, I'm likely going to stop further treatments. I have already done the best at my "peak".  I am telling myself that my life is still amazing despite these hiccups. Anyway, onto my financial goals. Back on 31 Dec 2024, I posted my goal to achieve $950k networth by ...

Cashing partial BTC out at 50%+ profit

My first foray into crypto was during the hype. Back in Feb 2021 During Feb 2021 to Jun 2022, I added in bit by bit - DCA as what they say. BTC, ETH, MATIC, SOL and even the horror LUNA. Thereafter, as crypto crashed, I stopped, praying one day it will rise back. And today, as I found that BTC is now at ATH, I decided to cash out 1/4 of my BTC for some profits. It's still a far cry from the amount I've lost, but I'm glad I could recoup some losses. Just to detail for my future reference, I transferred my BTC from ledger to coinbase. And sold my BTC on coinbase to SGD, incurring an atrocious fee of $130 and GST of $12. Gone are the days of cheap transaction fees.  Please let me know if there are wiser/cost effective options. In total, what I took back was a profit of 50%.  May BTC rise up more so I can cash out at 100% profit next. -dated 9 Mar 2024-
