I'm surrounded by individuals who dont feel so good about our job. Many of us think of leaving and starting afresh somewhere..
Some of us go on to become insurance agents,pimps, teachers, photographers (hahaha...), property sellers...
I took the easy way out.

I was out lunching with a friend yesterday and he was asking me if i brought shares from Citibank.
He went on tell me about how it was easy money because its share price are increasing daily.
The conversation then went on to how the Singapore market does not give as good a return as the US markets because the share prices dont rise as fast.... i guess hes rite to a certain extent since the movt in the local market hovers between a 1/2 a cent and 1 cent.
How long would it take to make $1000 dollar from a 1/2 cent movt???? For most of use, its going to take months, if not years.
For a few lucky individuals, it takes a lot shorter since their big fat thick wallet allow them to hold 5 million shares...
Oh well, i'm going to bank on the big sweep next month. I might just get lucky.

I read the following in tokyo...
http://www.asiaone.com/News/Education/Story/A1Story20100405-208626.html
Within the article, it listed some obviously obvious observations. I could definately relate to them...
2. All these bags carried by children, while adults carry nothing.
I used to remember carrying a ton of books to school. It was partly my fault that i dont pack my bags.. but also partly because i didnt know how to read the timetable. I only started packing my bags in primary 4.
About a month back, a scene just outside my house struck me..
A maid and aspoilt brat girl was crossing the street. The girl, no older than primary 6 ran across the road. Upon reaching the other side, she turned around and threw a disgusting look at the maid for not keeping up with her...
I hope she grow up to be a ah lian and sleep around.
4. Wearing shorts in winter
This has no explicit reason to it... i just enjoy the coldness rather than being hot and sweaty.
8. Education: All "Smiles" and "Thank you"
About a decade ago, the Singapore govt started advocating financial education. Students were encourage to start small unrealistic unsustainable business in school canteens and bookshops to cultivate a sense of financial well being.
All it did was to encourage materialistic upbringing. We will see the repercussions in years to come.
10. All the holidays Chinese people don't celebrate - Japanese kindergartens celebrate
How many of you go pay respect to your elders on qing ming? Do you know that praying should be done in the early morning?
Maybe some of today's kids who would grow up to be very successful businessman and women would pay their maids to go pray on their behalf in time to come. All thanks to the very successful financial education.
11. Teachers' abilities
Why do we need so many teachers who sleeps around with students ? We have more teachers than ever today.... it was so to justify a better Teacher to Student ratio. We have achieved that... but it corresponded with a decrease in the quality of the students.
12. Buddhist Influences
We shouldnt discuss this on this blog... but im glad my parents are buddhist. =)
If i ever have kids, i think they are going to suffer.

While the body and mind is on holiday, the work never really did stop. =(
On the bright side, im finally working on the pics of the couple i took last month. Im a little frustrated that my own wedding pics are taking so long... so i figured i should delay no more.

Awaits the new year

One visitor said: "I bought my tickets in Hong Kong about three days ago because I was afraid that I couldn’t get any tickets here."
"I expected it to be sold out so we booked it two weeks earlier," said another visitor.
All tickets were sold out by 11am. Those who failed to get the tickets got the tickets for another day.
One tourist said: "Can you imagine we travelled all the way from Brunei just to realise that the tickets are sold out? So we just bought for tomorrow."
"
They should have made their way to japan for Disney Land. They had unlimited tickets. heh heh...
I hope joyce dont read this. =p
