The clock of life is wound but once, and no man has the power to tell just when the hands will stop, at late or early hour. Now is the only time you own. Live, love, toil with will. Place no faith in time. For the clock may soon be still.

More happiness to look forward to

I'm leaving on a jet plane to jakarta in 5 hours time. Quite excited about my first business trip. I have been liaising with them for the past few weeks, planning out the agenda, preparing materials for training and review and classfied the controls neccessary for each products. My dad is funny, he told me to eat pork there so that people cannot cast black magic on me. I wonder I can even get pork there? Frankly, I have always thought pork to be smelly.

I hope I won't have to work late or work in the hotel as much so that I can spend quality time with Fred roaming about the city. Besides, I kinda need to open my casted aside FRM books. I have been busy packing and catching up with friends this week which was great fun.

On Friday, I had dinner with David and Lisa at Lao Beijing. Lisa ordered too much food which explains why the bill amounted to 70 bucks. Thanks for the love! :)

I got myself a new silver SONY vaio laptop costing 1999, just below my budget by 1 dollar. haha. Freebies include upgrade to 4GB ram, 4GB usb, antiglare screen, travelpac mouse and creative headset. I would like to think that i got myself a good deal. At night, my dad came to pick me up and got me a orange ipod after badgering him for a birthday present. swee.

On Saturday, I met up with my best friends once again, Kerly poks and Lisa Tian. Lisa made me up to be like some taiwanese star which I unfortunately did not have the features to carry it off. I thought it made me look 2 years older. Nevertheless, it was great fun.

Thereafter, I met witht the smu asocies khakis at Marmalade Pantry and Ion, followed by coffeeless night at starbucks. Ion is huge with fancy shops and toilets, i felt like some small little girl roaming in the sea when i was attemping to locate the restaurant. Cake was yummy, thanks to Denn's quality pick. Very appreciative my friends remembering my birthday and coming out to celebrate my birthday on a Saturday night. :)

To top it off, my US penny stock hit over 100 percent returns just in a month on Friday! There was no point in converting it back to sgd when the rates against my favour. So happy about my judgement, not the money la coz i only invested like the remaining 900 usd of my funds in it hence minimal profits.

Really can't wait to see Fred on Monday in Jakarta after missing him for the whole week! He'll offically be the first guy who traveled for me. :):):)

True Love

I think that the measure of love would be how much one is sharing with the other half.

Sharing practically refers to everything in life, be in wealth, poverty, sadness, happiness, secrets, plans, news, goods, even including free stuff. You would just want the person to have everything you have or have everything you cannot have; even if it means having to sacrifice, you would have done it without hesitation.

I'm thrifty by nature, saving over 70% of my pocket money since young. Every penny owed is a penny remembered. Ever since, I met Fred, I stopped counting money. And this is very special for me, because I have never done it for anyone unconsciously.
