Secret of Louisiana

Had a food festival yesterday starting from the simple brekkie I bought yesterday morning, the porridge, my salad lunch and followed by eating out with Kelvin & Yong at Kelana Jaya Plaza.

It is a cozy place recommended by Yong where she had her birthday celebration last year. Thanks to her, we had the opportunity to enjoy nice meal at Secret of Louisiana. Too bad, too much food wanna try out but just couldn't finish it. Also found out that they actually have pasta buffet during lunch time from Monday to Saturday at a reasonable price. So, might try out one day!

I think I'm over-eating these two days. Like the market, whatever goes up must comes down and same as me, whatever take in must go out too. I'm suffering from over eating and the consequences is end up in toilet. Luckily this doesn't happen during this afternoon busy crazy market, if not, I'm gonna suffer more....

Hopefully the problem can be settled before my spontaneous Cameron trip tomorrow. Peeps, have a lovely long weekend!

No title, no soul

Its a public holiday tomoro, Labour day! Suppose to be a day off for all employers and employees but i am sure that there will be someone out there working. I guess with the economic condition now, nobody will be complaining about having extra work and have to work overtime. You should be glad if you still have a JOB. Hehe...
My mood aint that good recently. I am in a depression and stress mood. I cant remember when was the last time i really enjoy going out with my frens or colleagues. I am depress over an issue that i think might not be something serious to many ppl out there. But it really matters to me. I dont like to have arguments or misunderstanding with any of my close ones whether they are my family members, friends or even colleagues. I am facing one now and i am really lost. I feel like crying but i know that it wont solve the problem. I am not trying to avoid the problem but i just dont want to have too much comments or say too much incase there is any dispute again. Gosh! I really cant take it anymore. But i know i still have to face it. Wish me luck. And pray for me too. Sorry for the sad and depressing blog entry lately. HAve a lovely and good weekend.

Sick!!

Market is very quiet today and I dunno why suddenly I got a very strong feeling that market is going down. However, I do not have the courage to call one of my client to short because he has less than RM3.5K inside the account. It took me quite long to have the guts to make a phone call to this client and telling him how i see the market and what level to short. Anyway, he did listen to me and wanted to sell the market but he wants to queue the order there, ended up his selling order is not done. From there, the market flushed down.Actually if his order got done, he would have make 10 points.Sometimes having client who has little money in the account really stress me out.

I am feeling very restless lately. I still haven't recover from my sick. I did drink a lot of water and eat fruits everyday but my health condition is still the same. I never sick that long before. Help me!!!I think I had sick for one week already.Hope that I can recover from sick before this Friday so that I can enjoy Taiping food. Taiping food is still the best and it is cheap. Yummy yummy!! I can't wait to go back to Taiping!!hehe..

I think my 3kg goal have to postpone again.Haha... Maybe I did lose a bit of weight but not till 3kg like what I had set.hehe.. Okay, new target by end of next month, May'09 must lose 3kg no matter what. No more postpone!!!I know whoever read this definitely will be laughing at me and thinks that I am just joking....but I am serious ler...:p

Helpless

I was happy to know that my best friend is coming down kl to work. Although you might be in a good relationship, or have a good career but to find a good fren is always the hardest thing. Good fren suppose to walk with you thru all ups and downs. Good fren will forever be a good fren. They will never leave us. I cant wait for the day to come though i know it is next year. Its only 7 more months to go. I can wait. Then i can go shopping, yam cha and gossip. How nice!!!

I was hapy till probably half and hour ago. I could see alcohol in him again. I almost lost my bro 3 months ago. He was an alcoholic. He couldnt stop drinking. Never consume much food, only drink. One day, i guess his body and kidney or liver couldnt take it. He was admitted to the hospital. My family and I felt the pain of seeing him suffering. He was having withdrawal symtom. I know that its cruel but i did tell my family to send my bro to a rehab centre. He might hate us but he will be a good and healthy man for the rest of his life. No agreement over the rehab centre. So he was discharge and he was struggling thru the stage of no alcohol. He went to work and things was fine. Eveyone was very happy till recently. He didnt go work and he is back to drinking again. He starts to be violent at times too. I could see the pain in both my parents. Why must he walk back to the darkness? I really dont understand and i really want my bro back.

Mystery gift!

After spending hours staying in kitchen cleaning up the food in the fridge and preparing tomorrow's lunch, I finally have some personal time for myself- online and blogging.

Started this morning with an ok and stress free mode, since I'm out of market. And when I'm out from market, I guess I tend to see things more clearly and not one way street. However, when comes to margin call specially from Mr. Kong, I tend to feel a bit nervous, cause he has problem of delaying everything till last minute and I hate last minute work! On the other hand, if not because of him, I wouldn't learn how to calm myself plus doing quick calculation under a stressful mind. So anyway, thanks Mr. Kong indirectly for giving me a learning opportunity!

Another drama which happened this evening was helping Mr. Looi taking profit. Was on the May month screen since I was looking at Mrs. Lim's order. Who knows, carelessly did a wrong order. The wrong order really costs a lot! Sorry guys, money is out from the wallet before the pay cheque is in the bank. Will try to compensate for a small brekkie or lunch! Before that, you guys will have a small dessert to start for the day tomorrow. I'll make it secretive and let you find out what's that....

Good news

Received two good news while i was driving home..it have been ages since i last received a good news..what more 2 good news at the same time. GOD must be treating me well. Praise the Lord!

The first good news was from my sister in law, Shirley Tan. Finally!! She and my bro, Kenneth is officially an item now..i remembered how i first came to know Shirley almost one year ago in Sydney during my brother's convo. There was one night where my brother and others were out and we were staying at home hearing to each other's problem and that time was the first time i heard things about she and my brother. They both have been living like any other couple but so far not confirmed yet until yesterday. The dateline was set by Shirley one year ago, if my brother still refuse to accept that they are a couple within one year from the day she came back for good, then they are off but thank GOD. They managed to make it through. Well Done!:)

The second good news was from princess. Her good friend will be coming to KL for good. Although it'll also be a good news for herself as her bf is in KL, it will actually be a greater news for princess as she will have another good friend to depend on when she needs someone to talk. I know there have been times where she needs someone to be around but her close friends were not. Now, things will be different as Yin will be there for her when she needs her close 'ally':) Make sure don't neglect though, warning to you Princess!!

Glad that people around me are happy. Hope that the lucky star will choose me next round. I know Jinn wasn't today but don't worry, people do make mistakes. Don't feel bad for the mistake. Just learn from the mistake and move on. No one will blame you.

Love movies!!!

I went out with my sister to have lunch in the curve today. After eating, we decided to watch the movie" He is so not into you." The movie is just so so only,not as good as I expected. Everything in the movie is about love. Haha...I think I watched too much love movies during this weekend.

I watched movie" twilight" at home yesterday night and I like the main actor in that movie. He is so cool and handsome. Almost fall in love with him. Guess what!! I watched the movie twice..Haha..It shows that I am pretty bored and really resting at home after got drunk on Friday night.I really had a good rest this weekend and can't wait to go back to work tomorrow. I know I had been very slacky lately due to my lack of sleep and I just hope that I can perform better next week at work since I had a very good rest over the weekend.hehe..

This morning when I got up from bed, I realised I lost a bit of my voice. I drank a lot of water and hope that I will feel better tomorrow. The hot weather is really making me don't feel good. I just hope that it will rain one of these days.I don't mind it rains all the time because my room is very hot.hehe..

Threading

Do you know that you can actually use a thread to remove the unwanted facial hair? My mum and i went for threading this evening. Let me tell you what threading is all about. Threading is an old hair removal technique used in Middle East, India and China . It is widely used for shaping eyebrows and facial hair removal even today in India and places with a large South Asian population. A 100% cotton thread is used for eyebrow shaping by removing unwanted hairs. It should be strong enough, so that it does not break. The thread is used to trap the hair in loops and the hair is then pulled out from the follicle. Since the hair to be removed is selected precisely, there is more control on the shape of the eyebrow compared to other methods like waxing where only a stencil is used. Dont you think its amazing? Found out from my mum that the last time she did was actually 41years ago. Haha..and the price was RM2 for full face ( all facial hairs). Today she paid RM25 for it. NOt too bad. Strongly recommended. Thumbs up.

Happy and CLEAN YOng

Church

Was out with my buddies yesterday night, told them that i will have to wake up today to attend bible studies and the response was expected, A HUGE LAUGH from them. Can't blame them though, i really did changed alot all of the sudden.

Went for my first class on bible studies today, i felt that it was pretty interesting and i'm determine to make it a consistent weekly event. I know alot of people out there would be delighted to find out that i've decided to trust GOD and follow GOD but i want to make this clear to everyone, i'm doing it for myself, it's because i really wish to accept HIM and worship HIM, it's not that i want to please anybody or to make anyone happy. Dear FATHER, may you guide me from now on..i have trust in you. AMEN

After the bible class, princess and I attended the sunday worship service. It was only my second time attending this worship service at FGA and i'm already being so touched and impressed with them. I even cried during the service when i saw one lady, paralysed in her wheel chair went up and gave a short speech..I think everyone was touched with what she said..Don't know why, all of the sudden i thought of my grandma who passed away many years ago..guess she must be gload that i have finally ready to accept GOD. dear grandma, i know i have not done this for long long time..i pray that you are doing well in heaven and a new eyesight for yourself. AMEN

I feel that i've changed very much recently. From a person who used to get jealous with everything and from a person who was very possessive, i've became a person who prefer to let things go and be forgiving. I can see that she is very pressured and stucked with her current situation. Last time i would have felt angry because she dragged the matter on but now i rather see her happy with what she has now. I don't want to pressure her into doing anything for me but i really want to see her come out from the dug-out and ressurrect as a brand new person. I don't want to see a sad or guilty look on her face whenever some problem arise. I rather see a plain and honest her. Dear GOD, please show her the right way and the courage, please hold on to her hand and lead her to a better life..AMEN

"Lord Jesus, I believe You died for my sins. I repent of my sins and ask for Your forgiveness. I am willing to turn from my way and follow Your way. I receive You now as my personal Saviour and Lord and invite You to manage my life from thiis day forward. Amen."

Dilemma

Have a glance through my calendar and realized that I have too much wedding dinner need to attend this year. Those who I had confirmed, a nearer one would be end of June; followed by two of my brother's dinner, one in KL and Ipoh.

In September, I have 4 need to go within 3 weeks, and another one in a month time which is for my best friend's wedding. Till now, I still haven't confirmed to attend her wedding in Melbourne, but I guess I might give it a miss since she's having a small one back home here.

As for my group of classmates, I heard that there are at least 3-4 couples getting married this year. Good news is that I haven't received any invitation yet!

The real dilemma is both of my ex-housemates' wedding which will be held next year-Jan 2010. One is in Hong Kong, and another one is in Singapore; and I just found out that the one in HK is actually ONE DAY ahead of the Singapore one. The problem is that I had agreed to go both of them without realizing it's actually one day different. What should I do now?

Jinnie is having a headache now.....

I got drunk yesterday night!!

I went for clubbing in velvet yesterday night.My cousin held her birthday party in there and I get to meet a lot of new friends. hehe...Anyway, I am so glad that I didn't drive yesterday to velvet. I was drunk and luckily my friend took care of me the whole night. I didn't drink much actually just that the problem is I drank whisky, champagne and flaming.So end up I had mixed drinks and got me drunk badly.My the other girlfriend also got drunk and end up she stayed in my place for a night and she just went back home this morning.

When I woke up this morning, I felt so dizzy and headache. I didn't get that drunk for a long time. Usually I go out for clubbing, I try to tell myself not to mix the drinks but yesterday is exceptional case.haha...It is my cousin's birthday and there are 3 flamings in front of her on the table and she asked me to help her to drink some. So I can't just fold my arms and see her drink all by herself right? I will feel bad for not helping her...hehe... I will have to stop myself from drinking liquor for 2 months. Need to take a break!!hehe...I am feeling so hungry now and going out to have lunch soon.

Hyperactive Jinnie

I have no idea why am I hyperactive today. I think there are a few reasons for that:-

- I had finished the medicine I got from clinic last Saturday, meaning that I'm recovering soon. No more restless and dizzyness

- Got out of the selling position and hold nothing, hence stress free days. Though lossing a lot, but sometimes think about it, no point stressing myself because of money. As the saying goes-- Your health is the wealth

- Speaking about money, finally got tax rebate from Oz Government. Translation- a bonus for new toy and carefree trip to Melbourne next month

- And of course, no more plain tastebud and finally had the homecook Yong Tow Foo which I craved for days. Yum yum!!!!

- Lastly, a week to May month. Always looking forward to May because there are two special celebrations. My birthday and mummy's day.

-Jinn-

What a start!!

Guess how i started my day? An early morning sad voice from princess because of her sister's complaints..disappointed with accusations especially from someone so close to you..i do understand the feeling as i myself experienced that before. What to do? learned from experience lor..life is never smooth for us..i remember the topic on 'WHY GOD LET US SUFFER?'...why?without obstacles and sufferings, we won't feel the pain and we won't learn. Therefore, we just have to face it and upstage it with a brave heart.

Upon reaching office, before the market opened..i was on a call with a client for over 40 mins. This particular client really very naggy..luckily he's not my father in law. If not i rather die..hehe..Nagged for 40 mins over the same issue...and even now while typing..he called AGAIN!! HELP!!:(

Noticed market like to react opposite of US market lately. Whenever US down, our market will be up and vice versa. Guess we don't have to look at any charts anymore..just do the opposite of US market. Why torture our brain right? might as well keep it for other things..maybe should think how to talk cock sing song more 'professionally'.sigh..what a tough job we are having..

Stress

Had my usual exercise today. Only walk for a round with Kelvin. Market is against all of us and my 2 sisters are losing badly. I am quite upset after receiving a call from my sister just now. She sounded me for losing so much money. I was mad as i didnt want the situation to happen as well and i am in a worst situation where i need to care about my clients, myself and both of my sisters' account. HELP! I regretted helping my sisters to trade. But i felt better after the other sister consoled me. She wasnt happy for losing so much but then she thinks quite positive about making the money back. She said that she trust me. Immediately i put a smile on my face. I am glad that she understands my situation. Thank you ah wei sister!!!

Going bible study this sunday. Had been taking about joining a class for probably 3 months. Finally i am going. Used to go bible study when i was in melbourne. Didnt enjoy it probably the duration is too long. 3 hours on a friday. Haha...Hopefully i will enjoy it this time. Didnt go church for a long long time. I think GOD is punishing me. Things doesnt go well lately. HELP!!!!

Kokopelli

As usual, one of the thing I do while I was online is look for new things, whether is a place or food or whatsoever. Came across to this blog and realized that this is one of the bungalow restaurant that I always drive pass somewhere near Section 14 and Taman Paramount.

Tonight, Minnie had run out of idea where to go for his late night dinner, and he decided to try this out-- Kokopelli. It was located in Section 11 until lately, they had moved to this new place. I didn't try the food, but it looks good and the atmosphere not bad too. Probably one of the weekend lunch, I wanna try that out....

Why is market still up?

I was sick yesterday and slept around 9p.m. till this morning, 6.45a.m I think it is because of the hot weather on last Sunday. My colleagues are not feeling well too and we try not to take MC coz market is very volatile lately. Luckily, yesterday I manage to sleep peacefully. My housemates brought the dog into the room to sleep with them. Therefore, I didn't hear any barking from the dog.Haha..So happy. Finally I got one peaceful night. I am feeling better today after having a good sleep last night.

Market today is quiet and slowly climbing up. Most of our clients are holding short position. All of us are feeling stress with our client's position because they are holding heavy selling and received large amount of margin call. I really dunno why market is still up when regional market is down today.When is market going to retrace and start to fall?Can someone tell me?:(

My bf is coming to kl tomorrow.He will be here for a night because his main reason coming down to kl is to fetch his sister and my sister back to Taiping. Their exam just over and gonna have a 2 weeks break. So nice...can go back to Taiping to relax...I also want!!!hehe...

A girl who is going abroad

I know everyone is quite fed up over the market's movement today. At first, i thought that there will be some volatility in the market then i will be able to do some intraday trading today. So sad. No chance at all. Stuck here holding overnight selling position and also INTRADAY SELLING position. Double slap!!!!

Anyway, i received a sms yesterday. My cousin sister who is one year younger than me is going abroad to work. Not very far, only to singapore. She is one of the handful girl that i had seen being very independent. She was born in malaysia but brought up in Taiwan. So she actually did her studies in Taiwan and in chinese. When she was 15 years old, she came to malaysia to do her rest of her studies. All alone as her parents are back in Taiwan, she cooked, washed and looked after herself. The best thing is she doesnt know malay. She actually manage to struggled thru her studies and took all the government exams. Salute!!! Now she is actually going abroad to work. Sometimes i wonder whether i can do that. Leaving home to go other place to work, to get a living and also to get more knowledge. I am not worried for her as she is a very cheerful and easily approached girl. So I wish her all the best and hope to see a bright and brilliant ID girl real soon!!! Hugs!!!!

Fed up!

Guess what? I was bitten by my own puppy,LV yesterday. She was busy 'enjoying' herself, munching newspaper and i was holding this scroll of newspapers trying to whack her and hoping to chase her away but she jumped up and bite me instead. To my surprise, the cut was incredibly deep and my finger was bleeding from the second i was bitten.

I suppose yesterday was a wonderful night for everyone to sleep in BUT not me! I woke up middle of night and i couldn't sleep after that. Therefore, here i am started my Tuesday moody and MC (mang chang)..to make things worse, the stupid market is up again, although global markets were down with more than 3 percent. For the very first time, i don't like/enjoy hearing the slogan :' MALAYSIA BOLEH!!'..

Can someone please tell me why the market is up? Is it because of the RM 2.5 billion sukuk money collected by the government last week? If yes, then i'm the one who killed myself..because i did put in money with the sukuk as well:(

Sick again?

Opened my eyes this morning, found out that my mum left me alone at home with no breakfast..feeling rather bored since someone else is enjoying himself trekking at Gasing but i was all alone at home.

After mum came back from the association, we both went to Sunway Pyramid as she says she wanna go for a walk. I quickly agreed after being dead bored staying home with the burning hot weather today. At first everything was okay but i felt something is not well in body again after coming home. Sore throat and fever came 'visiting' again..sigh..hope i'll be fine tomorrow..if not there might be people fighting to take MC tomorrow..i know i can't afford to fell sick now with market starting to become choppy and busy..

Just took the cough mixture half an hour ago but my eyes are struggling to keep it open now..guess i will stop here for this week

Gasing Jungle Trekking

Woke up 6ish today, excited about going to Gasing after years of absence from that place. Didn't know that there is such a good trekking place. Received a sms from jinn early morning, was expecting from casualty but didn't expect it from her as i know that she's very excited about it too..but too bad, the fever defeated her and she has to forgo the chance. After getting myself ready, went downstairs waited for Chee Yeong for a lift and there i saw Mei Mun already waiting there...kinda surprised as i didn't expected a lady especially to be awake so early on a Sunday morning..not bad not bad..hehe

Upon reaching at the meeting point at Jln Gasing, a further confirmation of casualties confirmed. Chin Wei and Amy Leow (as expected) ffk us last minute. Ended up there were only 6 of us left. Anyway, that didn't deter us from marching further to our destiny.

We started at the suspension bridge inside the jungle. The starting point was a little tiring with Lay Yee's face turning pale after the first up hill test. We took a few minutes rest then we resume our trekking after she managed to overcome her uneasiness. It was kinda fun, it really made me recall back the experience of trekking in Penang. It was almost the same as it was inside the jungle but the only difference is Gasing's trekking is easier before of the well planned track, unlike the one in Penang where i need to bring parang alot with me to 'open' the way in front us

After almost 2 hours, we made our way out from Gasing then we headed to Damansara Jaya for dim sum. I guess the economy must have improved. We waited for 20 mins to be seated but it was worth the wait as the food there was pretty good. Really must bring my loved ones there next time:)

After the brunch, i came home and skipped my lunch after that in order to have a nap. The so called nap took away 2 hours of my Sunday time. Woke up to catch up with my Astro on Demand movies and also the Shanghai F1 race..so disappointed that Ferrari failed to perform again:(

Suppose to start with my income tax filling but got postponed after getting lazy once i see all the documents..that's why here i am posting a blog now..hehe


-Kelvin

Sunday is a rest day for me!!

Today is a Sunday and plan to stay at home to recharge my energy. The weather is so hot today and I really hope that it will rain. Thought of getting an afternoon nap but can't sleep. Dunno what happen to me, feeling restless and moody lately. Maybe I should take a break and apply one day leave to relax myself..haha...

Yesterday was talking to my friends and they ask me cut my hair short. They feel that I am suitable with short hair. HDM la la team, kindly give me your opinion, should I cut my hair short?hehe.. I did ask my bf about it and so sad that he said he like gals with long hair.So what should I do? I feel like doing something to my hair...hehe...Bored of my hair now.

I will be going out dinner with my sisters later. How nice if I am staying with my parents and I don't have to think of what to eat. I will just eat whatever they cook. So nice right?less headache.haha....I find this month is not a good month for me. A lot of things not going smooth and makes me very moody. Sorry guys, if my mood does affect you all.Have sleepless night lately and problem with my condo car park which bothers me.

Can anyone break the spell please?

I think I need to stop having Japanese food for a while. Fukuya has been my third Japanese meal since last Thursday, and I've not been feeling well since then. Maybe this is the spell from Minnie since 10 years ago. According to him, if I had my favourite food or yummy food without sharing with him, I'll definitely experience stomachache or any sickness.

Think the spell is still working and not broken yet. Since Tenji last Thursday, I had problem going into toilet. Same as after Umaiya, I had stomachache. Maybe the sore throat on Friday morning is a warning sign, telling me not to go Fukuya.

Who knows, though Jinnie is on DIE.T plan, but still a human being craving for her favorite and nice food. So now, the spell is working again. Straightaway that night, I woke up a few times coz of the runny nose. Then, experiencing severe headache and sore throat the next day.

And yes, I went to the clinic and get some medicine. I had to skipped the trekking this morning coz of fever, again. Hopefully by tomorrow, I'm feeling better. If not, I think I can only key in order but no voice to answer the calls.

Please pray for me to break the spell.....

Woke up early today bcoz of the damn dog!!

I woke up very early this morning. Usually during weekends I wake up around 10 something but today I woke up at 7 a.m. I woke up so early today because of the stupid dog keep on barking non stop in the living room.Gosh...I feel like hitting the dog with the hanger....disturb my beauty sleep as I am a light sleeper and once I woke up, it is not easy for me to sleep back unless I am damn tired.

Since I can't sleep, I washed my clothes and watched my tvb drama,EU until 12p.m. After that, I get ready myself to go out to send my car to the car wash shop which located behind centre point.I met up my cousin there and another friend in centrepoint and we ate in dragon-i for lunch. We were very hungry and ordered a lot of dish end up we struggle to finish up the food. Haha..

After the lunch, I went to get my car and we drove to the curve. We sat in front of winter warmth to have a drink and have a good chat there. We sat there for 4 hours. We didn't realise that we sat there for so long because we were busy chatting. Haha.. Didn't realise time passed so fast. After that, we thought of watching movie but the seats available for some movies we wanted to watch is very near to the screen. Therefore, we ended didn't watch any movie and decided to go home. I just came back from the curve half an hour ago.:)

Stamina back

Yesterday for the first time in months, i managed to not only play badminton at full strength but also played for 3 consecutive hours. The feeling was so good because i didn't feel tired at all. Guess it must be due to consistent walking/jogging lately. The greatest satisfaction came from the feeling of winning. I managed to combine with another friend of mine and we beaten ALL of the doubles partner on the other team. Definitely it was a priceless feeling:)

After losing RM 2000 within a day early this week, i've managed to recover some of my losses via intraday trading. Must thank my lucky star--> new fishes in the office for the good luck charm. Things have been pretty smooth for the past few days and i do hope that things can continue that way. Too many headaches for the previous weeks and months

Found out that my bro, Kingston actually argued with my dad once again yesterday. It wasn't a normal argument as he can get quite aggressive sometimes. His leg was actually injured after getting hit by my dad. Hopefully he will learn from this lesson and don't fight back next time. The more you go against your dad, the more tortures you will get. Learn from mistakes!!

A Losing Battle

Thank god it's Friday, weekend coming soon!!! It's coming to the end of the week, and my second post is not ready yet. So, imagine how busy we were. The market went up so much, crazily killing all the sellers. I'm one of them and finally surrender to this losing battle.

Well, the world is fair, market did came down yesterday, giving the sellers a chance to get out, or probably, another opportunity to kill buyers! Anyway, finally have a chance to relax, read papers and blogging after days of busy swinging market.

Boss is going to buy us dinner tonight, at one of the authentic Japanese restaurant in KL. Speaking about Jap food, I think this could be the third one of the week. Since last month, I think I have more Japanese food than Chinese Cuisine, well what can I say, nothing is happier than having my favourite food. But, I'm doubt whether I can make it today. As I'm having terrible sorethroat and headache. I'm trying my best to drink more water and internally heal myself, so that I can reach out for Jap foooooooddddddd.........

Speaking about that, I need to be more hardworking on exercising again, and probably not too much Sashimi intake, considering the fact that my past history of the week-- stomachache after consecutively 2 days of Jap food. If I can make it to KL Jap restaurant, it's a break for a walk or jog today, and I'll continue tomorrow, and definitely looking forward to Sunday's trekking...

Slurpeeeeee

Went for a walk this evening in shah alam lake after work with Jinn and Kelvin. As usual, i always crave for slurpee after the walk. Since i drove them today, i asked them to wait for me while i go down to get my slurpee from 7-11. When i went in, i couldnt make up my mind whether to get the small, regular or large. Since Kelvin and Jinn didnt want to drink so i decided to get the small cup and was looking for the lid. Couldnt find one so i ask the shop assistant. The only thing she said was ' Cover tak ada'. Though i was disappointed but then i was happily filling up the cup thinking it is fine without the cup. I am an adult mah. What can happen. So make my payment and i walked towards my car.
Happily getting into the car, i told them that there isnt a lid for the cup. Gave the cup to Kelvin so that i can start the journey and the next second, i saw my slurpee on Kelvin's shirt and pants and also on my GUCCI bag. Guess what was my reaction. After thinking back, i was suppose to be shouting for my slurpee or probably concern about Kelvin's shirt but i didnt. I shouted for my GUCCI bag. Haha...I was busy wiping my bag. Didnt bother what Kelvin or Jinn was doing. Or even my car seat.Haha..AFter cleaning my bag and also my car seat and also Kelvin's shirt, Kelvin finally said something. ' YOu didnt care about my shirt and pants at all. All you care was your bag. See my water thumbler. Full of water. Not like yours. ONly 10% full. Just now if drink my water all this wont happen'. Damn!!!! I know its my bad that i didnt care about his shirt and pants but my slurpee leh..I paid RM1.50 for it and i managed to drink only 15cents of it. Oh ya..and Jinn said something too. ' Luckily is not my car.' Kelvin also said that too. ' Luckily not my car too'. Wahliau..Anyway thanks for the help minusing all the comment. Haha...

I still want my slurppeeeee..

Money Money Money

Money money money
must be funny
in a rich man world
Money money money
always sunny
in a rich man world.....

I'm sure Abba fans or Mamma Mia fans remember this song. The common saying where "Money is the root of the evil", is money really evil??

This morning, all of us read about our horoscope and the common topic among everyone is "money". Yong even mentioned to me that my financial matters today is related to the government. And yes, she was right. I finally got back the fuel rebate from post office where today is the last day of rebate. So, this extra money is the bonus to me to pay off my car tinting.

I'm not only holding a paper lost today, and finally gave up on my selling position where I entered on the last day of previous month. So, seller's blood is bleeding. Imagine with the kinda money I lost, probably equivalent to a return ticket to London, or maybe a 7 days trip to Japan, or possibly a pair of wedding band plus solitaire, and of cause if you want to keep counting, is uncountable.

Probably some may think it's not worth to lose this kinda money, since it's hard earn money. But, sometimes think about it, if we could let go and don't take money too seriously, probably life is simpler and happier.

The market had gone up quite a lot since beginning of the month. Clients who bought, of cause are happy since their positions are in the money, and clients who short; don't think they feel good. And again, is money really that evil??

Hectic Tuesday

Initially was having headache with the things need to be done today but finally everything is over..so glad that EVERYTHING is done now:) Went to the bank 9ish today, surprised to find out that i'm the first customer who went into this Maybank branch to buy the government bonds. Got everything done then went back to office to resume work after taking an 'unofficial' half an hour leave. Had a quick lunch before market closed in the morning then rushed to Taipan to drop my car there for window tinting. One funny incident happened when we were at the tinting shop...Princess was jealous, she was jealous that one lady there was trying to 'check out' on me. I actually noticed princess' reaction then. She tried to pretend that she didn't feel anything but right after we reached office, everything spilled out. She reported to everyone about what happened but everyone seems to notice that she was just jealous..hahah..that was really a funny incident..anyway, i think i was happy within me that she was actually jealous, at least it shows she cares about me..hehe

Princess doesnt seems to be happy lately. I know what's bothering her but I don't seem to be able to do anything. Was trying to cheer her up throughout the whole dinner session but she doesn't seems to be happy until we went to Parkson after meal to hunt for pillow. Instead of looking for pillow, we ended at the children's department where there were plenty of cutie cutie stuffs. I finally saw a smile at her face..my heart felt better after that. I really don't wish to see her sad, anymore..

Realised that i have spending alot of money for my new toy. Spent RM 1540 for the tinting today plus another few hundred paid in cash last week to Wei Chiang for my car. Really gotto buck up and earn more money to finance my commitments. Hopefully can make from futures ler...hehe..it's time to do my daily night routine di..ciowz

Bad mood today!!

I am feeling very sad now. When I was driving on my way back from work, out of nowhere there is a small stone hit my windscreen and now my windscreen got crack a bit.I dunno how it happened seriously. So sad. I am so bad luck today.Today is really a black Monday to me. Taking care of a car is not easy. Sometimes I really wish I don't own a car.Taking care of a car needs effort and money as though like taking care of a baby.I hope that I will get use to it and be ready for any damage on my car in the future.I will try not to concern and care so much of my car as in want everything to be perfect, like the first time I have my new car.It is impossible!!!

The place I am parking in my condo every day does not have a shelter. Therefore, sometimes there is bird shit on my car which pissed me off and I have to wait for heavy rain to wash away my bird shit. So sad...If I really can't take it anymore, I will send my car to wash.I did call my sister to try to get a shaded parking for me but it is no longer available. Everything doesn't go well today. Don't feel like blogging anymore. Really no mood and sad...Just wanna go to sleep now. Really feeling very sad and unhappy.

Recession or no recession?

Hiehie..its a lovely monday. Probably cause i dont have to pick up so many unnecessary calls. Hehe..I went to PC fair yesterday with my family. Haha..I honestly think there aint any recession. I saw ppl buying things as though the money drop from sky. NO RECESSION!! Probably for the time being. There aint a recession for my bro. He bought a plasma 42" tv two weeks ago and yesterday he bought a fujitsu netbook. Gosh!! He actually spent more than 5k in 2 weeks. SEE! WHO SAYs ada RECESSION. Anyway, after making the payment, the salesperson place the netbook in a nicely fit box with a good quality paper bag. When he was carrying it on his shoulder, i started to know how he feels. His feeling was just like me when i buy any of my bag. Haha.. NICe box with pretty ribbon and a nice paper bag. HAHA.. Cant remember when was the last time i had that feeling. I saw some pretty lady at the PC fair. Erm..Not pretty honestly but i really think they are very sexy. The way the men look are as though they didnt wear anything. SUCKY MAN!!!!! NOw i know why guys want to go PC fair.Actually i enjoyed myself too. THere were some good looking guys that i was eyeing. Especially guys that were selling laptop and LAPTOP SKIN. The guy was so charming. He was actually selling Swarovski laptop skin. I know its buy 1 free 1 but then its rm238. GOSH!!! So expensive. Not say i buy already then he will give me his h/p number. Haha..I am not being needy. Just think that i havent seen a cute guy for quite a while. Oh dear!.. Guy frens, please dont kill me!!!!...HAhaha

Really tired after went out whole day!!

I went to PC fair yesterday to accompany my sister to buy speaker.Didn't manage to buy speaker because there is no logitech or creative brand. So sad..go all the way there and came back with empty handed. Didn't manage to go shopping because went there quite late and I need to rush back to PJ to meet my friend in Sunway Pyramid at 4p.m. Anyway, I did manage to eat my asam laksa in Pavillion.hehe...Long time didn't go there to eat asam laksa but this time I realised the asam laksa is not as good as the first time I ate. Dunno why.Maybe cut cost in ingredients. haha...

I had steamboat for dinner with friends yesterday.We can't think of what to eat at first and all of us would like to eat something light and not that fattening so end up we went to steamboat yuen for dinner.Yummy yummy!! I think I didn't go there about 1 year already and the food there is still good.hehe...Chicken wing definitely is one of the food that I must eat over there. The chicken wings will be served out on the table every 10 minutes and once it is served, everyone will rush to it and grab all the chicken wings. Haha..quite fun when comes to think of getting the chicken wings. It is like a chicken wings war!!

I went out the whole day yesterday and came back around 2.30a.m. and today went to delicious in bangsar to have a farewell lunch with my friend who will be leaving kl and work in Penang for good. Wish her all the best! I am gonna miss her lots.

-Jenny-

Help!

Help! Help! I couldn't believe this is happening to me. I've constantly staying in the toilet for the past 48 hours. Specially after dinner at Tenji. Well, maybe not Tenji's fault, maybe it's my body getting weaker, or should I say I got this disease from Yong?

I think after 2 days nature's call, I seriously get a flatter tummy. Issn't it this is what I wish for? Yes, probably not this way. I'm gonna dehydrated soon, and suffering from pain. Stomach pain and my arse as well.

Luckily I still have Sunday for recovery. Gonna ciao now for a good night rest!

New Toy

The day finally came, the day my new toy arrived!! As scheduled, my new car-Honda Accord was being delivered to me today. I was kinda excited, hours before i see my new toy, although i guess people around me wouldn't agree with me as i think i didn't show my excitement over it..it was drizzling a little when Wei Chiang arrived at my place with my new toy. Went to Popeye for some food as Wei Chiang's gf, Jin Lan was starving when she arrived, blaming on me because she needs to wait for her beloved bf to arrive KL first.

Had my first drive with princess and my youngest bro, Keith after the meal. It was a short joy ride as i have no idea where to 'test drive' an Accord finally and with princess complaining about the new car smell, i decided to drive home after less than 30 minutes. Was suppose to get my car tinted today but with limited time available and rushed schedule, i've decided to postpone my plan to Tuesday. On one hand i could get my car tinted and also I have the chance to purchase some government bonds on sale this coming Tuesday.

Gonna get more accessories for my car tomorrow as i think there are a few things missing for my new toy. Hopefully weather will be good tomorrow so that it will be a smoother day out for hunting. I seriously need to get things done by tomorrow as i don't wish to leave everything till Tuesday. I know the Lala Land Team will be more excited with my new car as compared to me, so hang on there guys! Kelvin's new Honda Accord will be at your office doorsteps on Monday, let's think where to eat first..ohyaa..free lunch for me on Monday, sponsor by Jenny..thank you very much..hehe

Must achieve my goal!!!

I went to Tenji japanese buffet with my colleagues yesterday.The food is so so only,not what I expected.Anyway, if you put food aside, actually the atmosphere there is very nice.It is a relaxing place to hang out,the place is like as though you are in Australia.Really miss Australia when comes to think about it. Maybe I should plan a trip to Australia either this year or next year.Haha..

I went to toilet a few times today. My stomach doesn't feel well after yesterday's buffet.My colleagues especially Jinn also faces this problem today. She went to toilet very often, more often than me today. Haha...I think it is good in a way can cleanse all your toxin inside the body by going to toilet to do "big business.":p

I just came back from dinner with friends. Had bak kut teh just now. I am suppose to be on diet right?haha...I realised my friends also started to care about their health. They swim nearly every day after they got back home from work..Wow...They are damn healthy makes me feel that I am the only one who is not discipline and not determine enough to do exercise. What they told me is cutting down your food doesn't help.No matter how also exercise is very important and it helps you to lose weight faster. I guess it is time for me to start to exercise and at the same time cut down my food.Eat more fruits and vegetables and avoid carbohdyrate. hehe..My goal is by end of this month, I must lose 3kg. Do you think it is possible?haha..We will see about that yea.

CRAZY YONG

HIee..i am now called crazy cheen. Market went all the way up and this crazy cheen is still holding selling. Haha..i finally got everything out. And i lost terriblely for my two lovely sister. They trusted me so much and i let them down. So sad right. I think the stress comes from the two account. For me, of course i mind. Not making money = no nicer bag or nicer shoe. I will still buy. Dont worry. Haha..I will still spend my money in order to make the economy moving. Anyway, i feel more relieved now but i just feel awkward. I dont know. I think i am really crazy di.

I told Kelvin just now that i plan to buy a bag. An expensive bag that i always wanted but didnt dare to buy. HAha..Ppl's commitment are either car, house or family. But for me, its bag. Its gonna be a 5 digit bag that i plan to do for installment. Haha...Please leave some comment to me whether i should go for it anot.

Its good friday today and i suppose to go church. I went tenji for dinner yesterday and went home late. My dad actually waited for me outside the house. haha..Daddy's girl. Anyway what i was trying to say was, i suppose to go church today but i was out till late last night. So i am grounded today. I know..i am already old enough to go out but my parents are just too strict. Should i be happy or sad?happy cause i have a good parents that care about me or sad cause i dont have FREEDOM. No wonder i never want to look for a bf that controls me. WTF!!!!!!!!!! I hate all this.

Phobia

PHOBIA is the word of the moment...phobia of losing, phobia of getting ill, phobia of lots and lots of things..tonight will be Tenji night..my guts feeling is telling that 'someone' is going to ffk at the very last minute. I guess everyone is expecting that too, am i right? hehe..

Talking about phobia, after the last encounter with Chilli's..i'm kinda have this phobia of someone getting lau sai after this buffet. The last lau sai session lasted about a week after she was caught with food poisoning. I just wonder, is it because she's weak or was it because the of the food. If it was because of the food, how come Angelia was alright? Wonder why..hehe

This morning i was trying to find my pink colour shirt to work..hoping that market could be down after wearing it but just couldn't find it. Wonder where my maid hide it..if market is not down today, i'm really going to go mad on her when i get back home tonight. Maybe i'm just trying to find someone to blame or should i say just want to release my anger on someone or something since i'll be skipping my weekly tension release session-Badminton.

Have no idea whether market could come down or not by i believe the whole team will have the one and the same thought, which is the market to come down or maybe i'm wrong, one person in particular has been thinking otherwise..you know who...

Chapter 5

Few things I learned from the Chapter 5, Reminiscences of the Stock Operator:

1. No diagnosis, no prognosis; no prognosis, no profit

2. If he pushes the confidence to its logical limit he is bound to get broke. ( Which means overconfidence may lose money)

3. Both right and sitting tight is the hardest thing to do

4. Study the general condition, take a position and stick to it. Hold the position until you believe the bull or bear is over

5. Without faith in own judgment no man can go very far in this game

6. The nicest way to capitalize the increasing assets was by not cutting down living expenses. In a way, meaning that there is no need to deprive good things in life

But, when comes to trading world, how many people can actually do it??

-Jinn-

LIfe oh life

My body is aching and my legs are so tired. Yesterday i went for 2 laps of walking.Haha. Expect to be fresh today but then i was actually very tired today. Was trying to keep my eyes open widely. Anyway i am very excited over Kelvin's car. Hehe..BUt then i cant stand the new car smell which eddie my manager claim that people actually paying to have the new car smell..YUCKS!!!! HOrrible terrible smell...I plan to get him the pandan leaves. Was told pandan leave could get rid of the smell. Not being cheap. I just think its economical as the economy is very bad now. I didnt mention of getting a bag for 2 over months. So i think the market is very bad. Hehe...

Going Tenji buffet tomorrow in MOnt KiAra. YUM YUM! I cant wait for it. Going with my boss and colleagues. Really cant wait for it but i heard some negative comment. Hehe..I shall comment after tomorrow. Hehe...What i am worried about is my diet. Oh dear!!! Dont want to fall sick or have food poisoning anymore. Fingers crossed. Wish me luck

Reminiscences of a Stock Operator

"There is nothing like losing all you have in the world for teaching you what not to do. And when you know what not to do in order not to lose money, you begin to learn what to do in order to win. Did you get that? You begin to learn!"

Quote from "Reminiscences of a Stock Operator" by Edwin Lefevre

While market was quiet this morning, I managed to flick through a few pages of the long abandoned "Reminiscences of a Stock Operator". It's not easy to stay focus reading the story book. At one point the phone kept ring; at the same time overheard others conversation. Thanks for teaching me to be multi-tasking!

I'm still far far away from finishing the book, but one thing keep me interested was how the author wrote about Livingston's trading history. He mentioned about how he made money when he was aged 14; and how he lost all his fortune as well. He also mentioned that stubbornness actually made him lost lots of money; and said that one who is trading should not bet the market, but bet the price. Maybe when I finish reading the book, I'll have a different perception towards trading strategy.

Just got a message from my media friend, according to her, BN won the election at one of the three places. So, what will happen to our market tomorrow? Is the market going to fly to 950 or like what Mr. Ha said 1000, or will it turn the other way for seller to get out? We'll shall see.....

Evening walk

went for a good walk yesterday after the rain stopped. Managed to force the lazy princess to jog/run instead of walk..*clap clap..good achievement..hehe..To my surprise, we actually managed to complete the whole full lap within 30 minutes. Seriously a good record for someone who never exercise for ages. Still remember meeting during our jog and saw this guy drinking Slurpee from 7-Eleven. This ever 'wai sek' lady seriously was craving for it but too bad, i didn't even have a single cent with me..so was she..ehehe...must remind myself to NOT bring any money with me from today onwards, if not the healthy/diet jogging will become weight gain session..and not forgetting unhealthy habit too.

Another funny thing happened yesterday night. This blurry princess actually complaint to me that her new phone is not working, pestering me to get her a new i-phone.. and guess what?? She has this old man syndrome, lack of knowledge on gadgets...the real problem behind her 'spoilt' phone was---->>> NO BATTERY!!! what a stupid lady she is..even my grandma also knows better than her i guess..

Anyway, it's good that her phone is not spoilt..if not my wallet going to get burned for 'some stupid accident'. Got a call from the bank, telling me to sign my loan contract..so, if everything goes as planned, i should be able to get my new car by end of this week. Definitely it will be an expensive toy for me, adding to my already bundling commitments which i already have..to make things worse, i believe incentives for this coming few months is going to be low..looks like it's gonna be lunch box from lunch soon..

Not easy to find parking in One Utama

I went to One Utama to watch "Shinjuku Incident" yesterday.I missed the beginning part because it is so hard to get parking. I never experience of can't get parking within 30 minutes.Now I realised the reason why so many people in the shopping mall during weekend...Haha..It is because market is up for so many days and people who invested in stock market did earn some money.It really makes a difference. When market is bad, you don't see many people in the shopping mall. Most of the people will tighten their belt and rather stay at home than spend money outside.

My colleagues are very moody today because they had been holding selling position and against them for many days. I hope that market will fall so that they can cut loss at a smaller loss.I didn't join my colleagues for jogging today because my bf is still in kl. I need to eat dinner and spend time with him.Time seems to past very fast with him around.He is going back to Taiping tomorrow and I will start missing him again.

-Jenny-

Another suck day!

I start to feel very tense now. Market had been going all the way up and i am feeling very scared. I am doing some trading for my family member. Now i know how the stress is. Cant seem well since the market was up till today. Though i went for a hair cut yesterday, i dont feel happy at all. HELP!!!! Regretted helping my family member to do trading. I want to go home. I really dont want to stay here looking at the market anymore.
I brought herbal egg from home. My colleagues always enjoy eating the herbal egg that my mum makes. But today some how only me and Jenny are eating it. The two person that loves it the most are not enjoying it. So sad. I guess they are facing the same problem but then i think their situation are worst than mine.
I dont want to bored everyone here or dont want to de-motivate anyone who is reading is. HAHA.. Jenny is sitting beside me now and she is already asking about my condition. I know that my blog entry is very sad lately. Just bare with me for a while. HAve a lovely day ya...

Determination, Fight On!

Seems to me the whole Lala Land is dropping in spirit, especially one person who i think having more problems not just work related matters..i can't do much but i do hope this poem will help a little. Be persistent in what you wish to treasure and i bet you will be happier one day, when you get rewarded, with GOD's will


When things go wrong as they sometimes will;
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill;
When the funds are low, and the debts are high;
And you want to smile but you have to sigh;
When care is pressing you down a bit -
Rest if you must, but don't you quit.
Success is failure turned inside out;
The silver line of the clouds of doubt;
And you can never tell how close you are;
It may be near when it seems afar.
So, stick to the fight when you're hardest hit -
It's when things go wrong that you mustn't quit.

WORK

I havent been very happy lately. There seems to be so many problem arisen in the office. First, the market is against all of us, the sellers. Market had been rising since the day i recovered from sick. Then secondly, there seems to be problem arising since one of my colleague is leaving. I really hope that he is leaving because he thinks working out there would bring a better future for him and not for the sake of being proud trying to show that he can do better than us. Then thirdly because of dinner venue. There wasnt an argument about it, but i guess some minor conflicts. Haih! I start to feel stress... Market seems to be moving side ways. Its not an advantage for the market that my clients are trading now. Meaning there will be less interest from clients. Trying to think very positive but sometimes its real hard.

I am really not in a mood to blog. Guess i will just stop here. HOpefully things will work out to be better next week.

YOng

Rain

I think everyone is having a mentally hectic and emotional week, since the market went up a lot within a week, and most of us and our clients are holding short position. Some of them who couldn't stand the paper losses finally cut loss, and left some still holding the unrealized losses. We'll see what's happening next week, is the market maker really wanna kill all the sellers or the economy is really having a speedy recovery...

We decided to let go our stress and keep our promises of being healthy person. Straightaway after work on Friday evening, the Lala team went to the nearest lake garden in Shah Alam for a walk where all of us spent about an hour in the park. Healthy right? Hehe... But, the truth is after 20 minutes walk, heavy rain pour down like waterfall and we were forced to take a break under the bridge and some rest booth. So, our effecient walking and jogging time was about 35 minutes. Nevermind, at least our body had warm up, that's better than sitting in office all day long. Please pray for our next walking session will be a sunny day!

While waiting for time to reach 5pm so that I can jog around my residential area, I'm on the internet chatting and blogging. Here again the rain comes and my plan had to postpone.

Rain, rain, please go away. Come again another day.....

My bf is in kl

My bf came down to kl yesterday.Therefore, I didn't manage to join hdm la la team to go for a jog after work.Sorry guys...will join you guys for jogging starting from next week yea.hehe...It seems like kinda long time I haven't seen my bf and feeling so happy to see him when I reached home.I think this kind of feeling of looking forward to see him after didn't see him for two weeks is good.Haha....

One sad thing is that my bf is so "smart". He brought food for me such as nescafe and chocolate. He really want me to gain weight man!!!Ish..but what I wanted is the tvb drama series. He told me that he did burn the drama series but too bad, he left it at home in Taiping.haih...Actually when he told me he is coming to kl, one of the reason I am happy is because I am looking forward to get my tvb drama series from him so that I can watch.hehe..

I was very moody early morning yesterday.I did 10 lots market order for a client and I assumed is Mr. Lim's order which is suppose to be Ken's order. I felt so sad coz I shouldn't do this kind of mistake. It is time for me to be more alert and stop being so slacky!!From this onwards, I must really do a good job at work. Stop day dreaming although market is not that active.:(

Market up, mood down

Moody and down day today as market went up once again with blood shed across our office today. Almost everyone is bleeding, seeing the market moving higher and higher and without us believing it, market actually shot up 33 points for the day!:(

During recession time, people will always think of cutting cost or even just save up their money but me?? crazy fella actually placed an order for Honda Accord today, on the day when he lost 2 months instalment within a day in the market. Could you actually believe that? hehe..i think i really lost my mind already..but it's okay, as i think i need something to keep me committed and not waste my money somewhere else..the good example would be liquor:)I can't believe that i actually stayed away from liquor for such long period, not only me, everyone around me are surprised too

Tomorrow will be the first day that we, Lala Land team members plan to go for walk for nearby park after work, pray hard for the rain to go away in order for us to have a good start..life will be difficult from next week onwards as we have tonnes of work awaiting us but i believe we can do it, as long as we have great determination and a healthy body. Therefore, no one is allowed to be excused from going for a good walk k? hehe...

-Kelvin

Expectation

Well, I was right. We were given new task again, not Kospi or European market, but Singapore and Taiwan market. Sometimes, when you expect something to happen, it may not come; if you don't expect it, it definitely came. Just like the new assignments. If I was so right, why not give me a chance to strike toto?!

Just when our local market is heading no where, there's a new opportunity for us to venture into- the foreign market, that's the reason we are back to the charts assignments, in order to learn more about market movement. So, this will be the new changes at work. Changes are good. At least, through changes, you can figure out your strength and weaknesses, and also a good opportunity to learn more about yourself.

The market again, today traded higher and higher while I'm in a short position and killing all the sellers. What can I say, I guess, wait and see. Probably like I said, the more you expected, the more it stay away from you. So, pray hard.

Work

Started my detox program on tuesday. It will be a 7 days program. So far so good. Suppose to get some headaches or vomiting depends how toxic you are. To my surprise, (touch wood) i am fine. Hehe..its just to detox. Not a slimming program. Its called juvanex. Bought from my sis in law's fren. Got a better price. Outside selling RM160 and i paid only RM105. Hehe.. Great deal. But most important is the effect. Whether it works anot. Anyway i will let you know on coming tuesday. Hehe..
Was having a chat with my boss yestesday after work. He was talking about gaining knowledge. I think its more important to gain knowledge when you are at the early stage of your career than earning money. I know in order to survive, money is the best solution. But then at the end of the day, if you didnt gain any knowledge, you will be stuck in the same place. For example, this man was given a fish. What he will do is probably thinking of a way to cook the fish and not thinking of how to fish. You see, if you know how to fish, anywhere you go, you will still survive. Cause you have the knowledge. You will actually lose out when you try to be proud and ego in your life. YOur frens will definately walk out of your life and you will always stuck working in the same industry because YOU ALWIZ THINK YOU ARE RIGHT. Get it. I had seen this situation twice. Once was my ex colleague and now my another soon to be ex colleague. Working in a team is good. Everyone has strength and weakness. When working in team, everyone will have combination of the strength and weakness. DOnt you think it is better? I guess the generation now actually learn to share more compare to the older generation. Gosh!!! Am i going to be like one of the older generation when the new generation comes in? Haha...
p/s: Not pinpointing. Just a point of view. Its fine if you dont agree. Cheers

Cooked dinner for my lovely sister

Market is trading tight range today and nothing much to do at work. Clients who are holding selling positions are waiting patiently for market to fall.Today, we are told that we are going to trade overseas market soon. Really looking forward to it because I had been hoping for it since I joined this industry.I can't wait to gain experience and knowledge in dealing with overseas market.Haha....

I cooked dinner for my sister today. So happy that she can come back early to eat dinner with me.I cooked "Gung bao chicken" and egg with onion today. It is very seldom that she can come back early to eat dinner with me because she will come home very late, around 10p.m. just to finish up her work.I feel very sad for her because seeing her work so long hours on weekdays and sometimes she even need to go back to work on weekends.So sad right this kind of lifestyle. Thank god, I don't have to work on weekends. haha...

Marriage

The whole HDM Lala Team received a surprised sms from the small boy, Adrian yesterday saying that he's getting married soon, FINALLY!! congrats to him! My only reply to him was ..be a good husband..you know what i mean small boy!:)

My first blog for the week was delayed, all thanks to my last minute rushing of my Dow Jones chart. Finally completed it after staying back in office after work for the past 2 days. Funny to say that I kinda like the experience of staying back after work. For 3 reasons, firstly is i find myself more efficient in doing my work after work where i can concentrate fully in what i want to do, without having the interruption of picking up calls or doing orders. The second good thing about staying back in office is there's no jam on the way home, which is good thing. Of course the last but not least, I find my time more occupied when i spend more time in office rather than going home early, sit down there and watch tv..maybe i should seriously consider staying back in office permanently from now on..hehe..see how first

Today marked first year anniversary for our beloved Jinnie in HDM Futures. Still remember her, half suspecting me of pulling a joke on her when i told her one year ago to come to work on 1st of April. She thought it was an April Fool's joke. Hope she finally understands that the sms i sent her one year ago not only wasn't a joke but it was also a good beginning to her bright future in this industry. It was totally a brand new experience for her as she has zero knowledge about finance and now she is, sitting down in office, giving valuable advises to clients on the market outlook and of course, learned how to bull-shit with news as well:) Hope you enjoy it jinnie..keep up the good work...

People come people goes, after so many years in our team, one of our 'senior' decided to leave our team officially from today onwards. Not sure how he is going to cope without the team but i do wish him all da best as it will definitely affect his family if he doesn't do well..all of us in the team, wish him all the best! We want you to make all the money you can and of course, please save up as you know you have a family behind you.

April Fool

Looks like I'm the first one who blog the first post for this new month. 1st of April, a day which is well known as April Fool Day where everyone might get cheated. So, beware and don't get too upset or frustrated if you got cheated!

Apart from that, this is a meaningful day as this day marked my 1st anniversary. Not wedding anniversary, but a year since I joined HDM Lala Land and a full working year back home here. I've survived for a year! Well done, Jinnie!

Speaking about this whole year, I had lots of ups and downs and I'm glad that I survived and didn't give up too easily. I've never in my life thought about I'd work in a trading company, look at every movement of the market, and be a fickle minded person due to unexpected market movement.

This year had been a great year, I've learned a lot, not only about the market and trading, but from working with everyone; the joy and jokes we had during working hours, certainly cheer up my day.

Of course, this thanks to Kelvin, who recommended this job during our primary school gathering last year. Eddie and Andrew, who kindly brought me in; Yong who helped me in passing my exam by talking loud and scolding me and providing nice food (till now, still remember how fierce she was). Jenny, used to be my companion on the way back home and now a teammate of the chart project who complained me as a naggy person.

Thanks Lala Land! Have a great day and don't be a fool...

p/s: I miss Concorde Japanese food!
