i have been busy with work.. but not like i am going to die type of busy... (i like to think that my threshold is quite high, but i know it's not haha)... so manageable.. All I hope is that, I am able to make a positive difference to my area of influence...
So... I would love to complain about this particular irritation in my life now, but I shan't. Most of all, becuz I know I am being really childish about it, but as of now, I dun care as I am pissed. But I have sufficient sanity left to know that I will prob regret ranting online sometime later, so I am not going to do it. (This ladies and gentlemen, is called wisdom)
So, I am extremely jealous of Bijou, cuz she had a recent trip to Korea, and am extremely jealous of YD, who will be visiting china tmr morning.. you two... *sputter sputter*.. I also want to travel!!!
And.. having visited the NATAS fair yesterday, I realised... that going on a trip is a bloody expensive business! Maybe I am a scrooge... mebbe i have been spoilt by my prev company, who helped with providing an air ticket... so now, was thinking of visiting a friend up in sweden in the later half of the year, the air tkt (via SQ) on a discounted rate, is S$1200... my entire imagined budget had been about 2k? was I being too idealistic I wonder.. I prob am.. how to save up? I mean can save up lah.. but heartbreaking to spend this sorta money...
to think i wanted to buy a new monitor (as my current monitor was meant to be a tv, so the reso, colour and possibly refresh rate is not good for me eyes).. that's only 200.. i am not that bad a spendthrift right? 200... mebbe after the 15th of March.. when my pay is in... and a good sound card.. can't decide if it's my speakers that are like shit, or my sound card is like shit.. frankly, I can buy now lah.. but i am limiting big ticket purchases to once a month.. so I dun get caught out hehe... wait till the money is in the bank.. dun spend before or after.. v dangerous in today's climate... sage advice to all. And please for goodness sake! Dun roll your credit cards or credit lines! That's the path down to hell!!! Clear everything off ASAP!!!
All About the Grouch

- Past forty and excited about reaching this milestone in life. Should I celebrate with an African Safari or head to the Poles for a dog-drawn sleigh ride? Ups and downs, opinions about life and things in general, my country (my beautiful red dot) and oh yah... Left the rat race and started my own business some time back. Still surviving, still having fun and still learning... What's your life story?

Well, I'll say give up your items for travel, but that's just me.
Money is made to be spent, so long as you're not spending something you plan to put on credit, then maybe it's a good investement to your mental health, hell I know it is mine.

And speaking of which... EH! We haven't been on any sort of trip together hor?!
