Everything revolves around money…
Before you can have a good job, you need to have a GOOD house to rest well.
But to have a GOOD house, you need a GOOD job to afford a GOOD house.
But to have a GOOD job you need a GOOD car to travel to your GOOD job from your GOOD house.
But to afford a GOOD car, you need a GOOD job.
BUT !!!!…all this would mean nothing if you don’t have a GOOD life to house a GOOD wife.
Can i hear a YES
The year has opened with warnings that China is lurching toward a major economic crisis that will inevitably have far-reaching global ramifications. While the Chinese regime is hailing the country’s 9.1 percent economic growth last year, analysts are noting that the growth itself has produced the type of overcapacity and rampant speculation that has characterised other economies before they experienced a severe slump.
Over the last decade, China’s combination of plentiful low-cost labour and a currency pegged to the US dollar has kept commodities manufactured in China cheap and competitive. This has enabled the country to become world’s primary destination for foreign direct investment, attracting $US53 billion last year. Driven by a desire to maximise profit and corporate dividends, the feverish trend to invest in China has spawned a number of serious problems.
Under conditions where the export boom from China has become one of the main growth engines for other East Asian economies, an economic slowdown in China would be socially and politically devastating for the region as a whole.
The total exports from the rest of Asia to China—more than half of which is for reprocessing—grew from $72.1 billion in 1995 to $160 billion in 2002. A fall in demand from China would particularly impact on the South East Asian countries, which still have high unemployment and have not fully recovered from the Asian financial crisis in 1997-98.
Rain Rain Rain. There is nothing really bad about it, but it would just make me fall into the sentimental mood. Where is could think about what i would really want out of a relationship. The things that i can do, things to say when our eyes meet each other, the feeling is derived and think about the scenarios that i can have with her.Well the rain just gets me thinking, especially for a long period of rain. Every author of a book, evey singer of all times, every instrument player of all popularities will have a time, a mood, a weather, a place for them to have their inspirations lighted up and have ideas flowing through them. the same thing happens to me.
After spending time with this girl, instead of understanding her more, i found out things about myself instead. I found out that i did not have to be the really perfect guy to fit into any of her shoes, i have never found a girl who really wants me to be myself. And understanding me and supporting me for who i am, that is really sort of a wonder to me. This kinder emotion is something that i am not accustomed to.
Whenever i meet this girl, there would always be a smile on her face and that smile is really contagious. To understand the joy it brings when you see a person smiling for you would have to feel it to understand. i believe she thinks that a smile on your face keeps you beautiful, even if you are sad of stuck up. Isn’t a smile becoming a facade? i don’t want a facade, i want the real you. Cry when u are sad, laugh when you are happy.
For this girl there are many pretty things about her, i am not lacking in anything in my life right because of love and that is equal to a girl that i just have to love her for the lifetime. she has to be the right girl. she need not be miss universe. she need not be the winner of grammy awards. she just have to be simple, just the girl-next-door. but, she has to be her. Just a simple girl.
To put it simply the perfect girl of my dreams :
- A girl that trust me completely. im not saying that she would allow me to go out with girls all the time. honestly, i would rather she scold me, hit me, pinch me or whatever, when i go out with girls. instead, the kind of trust i’m talking about, is that she confides her problems, her secrets, everything that she wants to let out to me. only me i would say. Equating this i would be like her diary.
-Previously i would spend money on that person, get them whatever she wants, she would feel loved. But with her its rather the opposite. Because i know i used to have a problem on showing how i love that person, i used money to sub. hmm, this changes the fact after knowing her, specifically her. and money cannot buy her heart.
Well in the end, when i say that i am really planning go far with this girl. In short Je t’aime.

CURRENT crude oil prices : $94.64 per barrel.
From my point of view, the huge increase in current oil prices from $60 a barrel in 2006 has been largely due to the step up in the 97/98 Asian Financial Crisis or (AFC) for short.
The root of the problem lies in OPEC, they fail to see the rise in demand on oil. As they did not expect Asia to recover so quickly from the financial crisis. Leading to a huge lack in supply and an increase in demand.
they should keep their freaking eyes open to what is happening in the world. What are their economist doing? sleeping? Now the real hell begins, the process of where the rich gets richer and the poor gets poorer. Inflation would kill and the cost of living would go up. Belt tightening is the second most logical thing to do, But with a decline in consumer spendings where is the money going to go to?…Thus in economic crisis only the banks make money, because people are all saving their money!
With the rise of oil prices, which anytime now would hit the $100 US per barrel mark. All hell would break loose, companies would be force to lay off workers, due to a huge decrease in their annual takings. The consumer index dropped like hell today ! with such a huge decrease its no wonder more people are getting bankrupt. people have to learn to be cash rich, MONEY IS KING.
I believe smart diversified investments are the only logical way to make sure that a constant 6% to 8% per annum growth of you money could tie you through the economic crisis. US is getting screwed ! The next best place to put your money into would be the EURO dollar, more people are changing the common currency to the EURO dollar. Places such as India and China has abolished the acceptance of US dollars and switching to EURO dollar.
i believe the next big thing would be the EURO dollar. Just you watch, currently the Euro is valued at $1 EURO = $2.1. There is a possibility in a fast paced increase.

“Art” made to last, or a one hit wonder…?
ONE HIT WONDER
With art, you must constantly seek greater and greater stimulation, or your ability to appreciate would dull. do u have a rough idea what is art that is a one hit wonder? Think about explosions and fireworks, true art is something that blossoms for an instant before withering away. Why would a flower look so nice, its the beauty of its bloom that captivates its beauty, but it does not last forever.
MADE TO LAST
Art is something that endures the test of time beautifully and gracefully. True are its eternal beauty, as such eternal beauty that could be passed on for all to see that would be the ideal art for. Paintings and music are of such, that would stand the test of time. That would allow future generations to appreciate.
ARTIST
Both ideas are respected as like a true artist would. But if it would ultimately come down to which one is the best to represent art, it would only be wise to choose the artist. The artist who does not live forever, his being is a one hit wonder he is not immortal his living is an art, the works that he is capable to do that would captivate future generations is the ideal stand against time. People live and die, but the art they create lives on. Art is only best represents as the artist himself.
“simple words”
When i reach the moon…
You would want the Stars…
When the stars are near of reach…
You want me to be back there by your side…
Whispering those words to that special you…
You will never get to see the tears i cry…
Even if the sky falls over me…
With those words all that you need will surely come…
And what are those special words…?
it is simple…
it is…
It is just simple words…

Madam Saigone !!!
ON a scale of 1 to 10
The furniture was quite unique, it is those olden days stools and table. Ordered a cup of vietnamese black coffee, it came in a upholster brew where the coffee is dripped from the top down to a cup. it was kinda unique, i ordered lemon grass tofu, broccoli with prawns and rice. The prawns was very fresh and there was not a stench like those when u usually eat seafood. The service was good, the waitress was very well mannered and she served us with a smile. We did not have to wait long for the food to be served, i think it took them about 5 minutes to serve all the dishes to us. The price was also quite reasonable, a simple meal for 2 it was about $15.00 per person. It is really a recommended have to go. It is located over at Bugis if you walk towards the area of the hot air balloon Madam Saigon would be towards your left, Bugis center would be behind you. Madam Saigon is located where all the shop houses is located.
In Europe typical “uncle” would have a totally different past-time from the typical Singaporean “uncle”. uncles in Europe would tend to enjoy people watching where they would go down to a cafe order a cup of espresso and sit down and watch the people go by. Whereas Singaporean uncles prefer a totally different kind of lifestyle, but there are a lot of similarities i think i would list some examples.
SINGAPORE UNCLE
EUROPEAN UNCLE
So you see uncle all around the world are more or less the same. Because it is like a disease, it is a worldwide contagious disease if you catch the “uncle” syndrome there is no turning back.
Some people would ask what about the auntie syndrome? That is a very good question, the auntie syndrome is really something to reckon with. If i offend any aunties in Singapore there would be no end to it. BUT WHO CARES !!!
EUROPEAN AUNTIES
SINGAPOREAN AUNTIES
So now you see, this is a path that no one can hide away from. The part to the “auntie”hood or the “uncle”hood, it is all hard wired into us no matter what skin colour, place or time. You and me would soon be the UNCLE/AUNTIE of tomorrow. Be prepared………….
I was so shocked to see mens health showing vibrating squats. You would wear vibrating tights and do squats, i was thinking would he get a hard up doing all those squats. OMG, i don think i wanna try vibrating squats. LOL…
“UP”……..Vibrate………….”DOWN”
“DOWN”……..Vibrate………….”UP”
“UP”……..Vibrate………….”DOWN”
LOL…..SO super funny la, can imagine not?….lol…
Faith. That is one word that would totally sum up my life right now. Because that is what i am slowing building up.
There are more, but lazy to blog. These are 2 of the more important ones…
