How To Buy A Broadway?
A Broadway costs about S$1600. How to go about saving for it?1. Get gahmen subsidize for you. I have S$700 in the Pr0gre55 package.
2. That leaves another S$900. Easy. With Swiss Cash, I invested S$340. In 15 months time, it will generate S$1020 for me.
See...LV is not so expensive after all. S$340 only! Still got S$120 remaining to spend wor!
Heh.
Car Park Is Not A Playground
Took me only twenty minutes to reach the mscp. I hurried my footsteps to get the car, when a silver Vios started moving off its space. Neither the driver nor me saw each other and we collided. Good thing he didn't move off quickly. A bang below my knees. I was in such a hurry I even apologised and walked to my car.The shock settled down and I was only in full realization of the happenings when I was near Outram Park MRT station. I was so stupid. I could have demanded medical fees. At least S$200.
Swelling up already. Sigh, tomorrow still got interview. Bai kar go there.
On a different note, I'm doing my ICT this coming Nov - Dec.
I leave you with this short story. Good night.
A mother was telling everyone how smart her daughter was.
Mother: My daughter is so smart, she could spell her own name backwards at the age of five.
Crowd (prolly made up of ah sohs): Wow! That's fantastic. How does she do it?
Mother: Haha! My daughter, Anna, is a genius.
The End.

Lunch Hour
Just after lunch, my colleagues and I were at Caltex House. Volvo was showcasing its new C70 coupe. The place was filled with people. Many were queuing for free coffee. I thought I saw a Polo Black counter and was walking towards it. I was walking past this person who was giving out free gifts.Suddenly, the camera man pointed at me and said to host, "Get him." He turned to look at me, "Is it okay if you would answer one simple question?"
I was asked, "Is it true that Kenneth Cole Signature perfume is the longest-lasting.....?"
Sheesh... obviously I said yea, and I got a free miniature.
A bloody nerd got a Timex free. Should have seen how he posed for the camera. Totally miserable. Ok, I'm sore I didn't get the Timex.
Oh, and the 'host' happened to be the guy from Light Years. I know Sop drools over him.
Health Pr0m0 B0ard was giving out free guo teis, served by a Chinese restaurant. Super good. So good I had 2 servings. Heh.
Most of us are sleepy after lunch, so here's a short story to cheer you up. Have a good afternoon.
Woman: Darling, is my jeans like the width of our door?
Man: No Darling, our door is not blue.
The End.

Investment
A few mornings ago, SwissCash texted me to inform me of my first payout.PM me if you wish to know how you can get 300% of your investment in 15 months time.
For example, I put in USD200 = SGD340.
In 15 months time, I have taken back a total of USD200 X 300% = USD600 = SGD1020.

The Day We Kissed
Je No Speak French
He started off:
"Bonjour,
Je suis en deplacement du 27 au 31 mars 2006 inclus........
Sinceres salutations.
Pierre-Alain Rault"
So I replied his mail,
"Bonjour,
Sorry, but je don't speak Pink Panther. Je speak Mr. Bean. Vous know, in English?"
I later went to Free Translation and found out he was trying to say...
he's on leave.
Damn.
Lonely No More
Waterfalls are amazing. Majestic. And spectacular. They just take our breath away.We have a few waterfalls right here at home. Man-made, that is. Synthetic.
Still, the one at Millenia Walk never fails to enchant me, especially at night. The wind that blows me away. The sound of the rushing water sounds melodious, accompanied by the dim lights, intriguing our every senses.
You get to find pebbles at the foot of waterfalls. I once saw this shiny pebble and thought it looked interesting. I picked it up and admired it. On the surface, it looked beautiful. But when I turned it over, it was covered with algae. The contrast.
All of us are like pebbles. We are happy. We laugh alot. We have lots of friends to spend our weekends with. We have good grades, well-paying jobs, wear expensive clothes, buy watches that the majority of us couldn't even pronounce their names. There are some of us who pretend we are happy. Some of us masterly create a picture we are happy. Some of us think we are happy.
But we all know we are empty inside. We all want someone to fill us, to make us complete. If you have spent enough time by yourself, you would understand what I mean.
Friends may bring joy to our lives. Material things may make our lives seem a little better. Clubbing may seem fun. But at the end of the day, when the noise dies, we know the emptiness is real.
We try to avoid this feeling by burying ourselves in our work and studies. We stay out late at night. We drink. We buy even more expensive things. And soon, we are trapped in the rat race.
Happy on the outside. Rotten in the insides.
