It's a slip

but not a fall
sixteenth president of the US, President Abraham Lincolm once said
well, after losing a senate voting i think
and i find it rather inspirational, really

presidents often have the most inspirational phrases
they are the public faces
they must know what to say
how to say and how to face the consequences

i guess they have vision
they see the world
while i am coping to see my world
how is my world?

they often say coping with difficult situations
is not as hard as coping with difficult people
may i dare ask
am i difficult?

is it hard to cope with me?
do i give problems to people?
do i make difficult situations?
how do i check myself?

do i provide none but trouble?
do i offer not solutions but questions?
do i complicate things?
do i do i do i?

look into the mirror
and i ask the mirror
then again, human lives in self denial
am i willing to accept criticism?

if i can't cope with myself
how can i expect people to cope with me
i guess i'm just being difficult
to myself

i don't like negativity
i hate consequences
i don't know how to say
and what to say

so i am sorry

Goodbye 2008... Hello 2009!

what a typical line...
but... will you be hearing this today?
where will you be when the clock strikes?
downtown east? flyer? marina bay? or some fancy fancy hotel?

some of you will be across the borders
and how i envy you
some of you will be partying all night long
no envies, just don't drink and drive

2008 has been a transition year i guess
ORD to full time student
and still am
kind of still in the process, reflected by the awesomely catastrophical exam results

it's bad
so bad i don't even wanna talk about it
so bad it's going to stay in 2008
and i don't want to bring it to 2009

therefore
for 2009
the resolution, is it call resolutions?
whatever, it's WORK HARD

i woke up today, this morning, just only
to read something in my email inbox
from emailcashpro's guy Kenneth
saying the hardest part is goal setting, while it might be easier to achieve them

since goal setting requires thinking and evaluation of sorts
while achieving them requires you to only work hard
therefore
2009! WORK HARD!

phew! that was fast enough
:)

work hard. to have more money.
save. save. save.
save appropriately. spend cautiously.
i'm a full time student, not going to invest, unless the chance comes and the time is ripe

work hard. to keep relationship going.
family. friends. and you.
i failed my friends and neutral towards family.
guess that leaves only you.

work hard. towards honours track.
keeping 3.5 wasn't so hard in poly. but struggling in Uni.
3.5 minimum for honours track. tell me what to do lah.
so hard. there's so many china people. there's so many zai people.

work hard. to complete 2B license.
it's coming to an end soon, i hope
been learning for 2 months already?
TP's not far away, the nightmares again

so work hard.
that seems to be the only thing on my mind
for 2009

i guess my life is satisfactory
but it's not good enough
i want the best
but right now, it's just not good enough

so... work hard.

looking at my desk calendar,
sent to me by snail mail
from the bank that insures me
and i must ask for it!

for January 2009
"Success is not a destination. It's a journey"
by Zig Ziglar
who's that?

well, will agree to that
although i feel that
success is a journey that is plagued.
a destination with no light.

anyway,

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL OF YOU! whereever you might be
HAPPY 2009!
CHEERS!

i've got my perfect companion, time to work hard for the perfect life with her...

wow, $2 COE leh!

COE for small cars drops to historic low of S$2
http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/singaporelocalnews/view/390840/1/.html

COE has plunged (what are you waiting for?)
just made me wonder how many bidders were there for this round
perhaps just a tactic to surge the amount of the next bid
so buyers beware, the next bid might rocket

then again, it's all speculation
how high can it fly, we'll sit and see ('cos no money to buy car)
then hopefully, we'll see $1!
till then, i'm still working hard to be at least part of the bidding once...

from Channelnewsasia

Restroom Association wants 70% of public toilets to achieve 3-star rating by 2010


i didn't know singpore has a restroom association
seems like anything can have an association
why not a clean-table-clean-chair association for hawker center
don't they realise it's the same for the outside too?

but then these hawker centers will go to the extreme
by suggesting to undergo total renovation
wah... pretty pretty decoration
only let the consumers suffer, because that would be a pretty pretty neat reason to increase prices

so much for assisting people make through the economic downturn

anyway, it probably meant that
in order to make it through this downturn
perfect your skills of cleaning toilet!
make yourself the one that can change toilet ratings

then market yourself properly
earn money
start company
and make a "sure-at-least-3-star-rating" toilet cleaning marketing slogan

then restroom association wants you
to help clean toilet
you train people to achieve that
they get paid

you get the money *drools*

okay
snap out of it
crazinesss
so much for trying to be an innovative entrepreneur...

take note ladies!

S'pore ranked 16th most expensive shopping locations in the world
"
In Asia, Singapore's retail rentals ranked 4th, with Hong Kong retaining its position as the region's priciest shopping destination. "


please don't grumble if we don't bring you to shop in Singapore,
needless to say, hong kong, with the champion position
sigh, shopping paradise of asia
is the champion killer for pocket

so people,
flock to Malaysia for your groceries and petrol, Thailand for your apparels and accessories!
start cleaning toilets!
and strike hot for the small cars!

good luck!

if anything can go wrong, it is now. if anything is to be right, when?
