The Chinese New Year holidays are over at this point in time. Hope all the readers had a great time. Hm.. i juz din quite like the CNY eve. Well, lots of cleaning up to do. Think I broke my previous record in accomplishing the number of tasks. Well the day started when I woke up at 11plus.. hehe!! Then started to paint finish e other side of the gate. Followed by washing the balcony, next washing both cars. After that was washing the car poach.. then it was polishing one of it! Well, that took me almost the rest of the day. haha!
The past few days for me were rather routine. Year in year out, my relativies would come over for lunch on the second day. Well, I kinda like the interaction part which I haven't got lots of chances to meet up with my cousins.. As for my case, unless there is big occasion or cny else I don't go house visiting. It's also a chance for me to get to know how well my cousins or uncles are getting better each year. Well one things for sure.. Rolling funds were topic for the day. haha!! So much chim terms which I'm sure it's oni applicable after I have repay my debts. haha!! Well the bottom line will still be increasing ur assets n reducing liabilities.
Back to a friend's blog on what's are simple pleasures in life n what does that mean? For me if depends.. One could be juz meeting up with a close friend or friend whom I haven't seen for quite a while prob over coffee or tea, catching back old times. Another could be juz lazying around *which I seemed to be doing it rather often ever since I came back* haha! Well, another could be juz hanging around some friends for ktv / supper. Or maybe would be juz doing some stuff which I have done in the past. (",)

Topic for the week -> COE price, cars...
Hm... last wk busy with many stuff.. Managed to meet up with Peter @ HarbourFront other day. Well, not much big difference from the last time I saw him. Probably his hair abit longer ba. Hm.. managed to meet up with Noel in the beginning of the week, saw Henry on the NE line the veri same day.
The greatest achievement for this week would be spending my saturday painting the house again. Almost done, juz need another 3-man hrs of hardwork. whaha! Have to get it up by Friday.. haha! Chinese new year is around the corner but I'm not really looking forward to it. Guess maybe it's becuz I'm jobless. haha!! I juz dun like my relatives to ask, so found a job liao? Even then isn't much of ur prob right? Still remembered this period last yr, when I was busy preparing my stuff n meeting up friends before going over.
Anyway, went to Borneo's Motor ytd. Yup, there was this big huge crowd over there. For those who dun know, COE prices have dipped to an all time low, below 10k for all categories. Those were the days when COE prices were as high as 20k plus. I still remembered when my parents bought the corolla which was back then was @ 80k plus. haha!! Now a Vios is selling only at 44k including COE. Well, when's my turn to get my own car? I still remembered that there was an occasion which my housemates n I were having a general topic on buying cars in sg at that point. I recalled saying 44k @ that time can get a Hyndai Accent but now I can get a Toyota Vios @ that price. However, passing by Ubi, I could sense that not all cars are that sellable.. Can see from the no. of crowd, one can roughly make a guess on the upcoming COE bidding. Juz out of curiousity, found out that Vios is a latin name which stands for "to move forward". In anycase, the depreciation rate for Vios for the current price is set to be only approx 4k per year. You still get back 6k plus for scrapped value @ e end of 10yrs. Well, one factor to consider while buying a car is the amount of loan to be taken. Juz some extra info, the interest rate set by most of the banks is pegged at 3%. That means to say for a loan of 20k to be repaid in 1 yr, that would have cost you a 600 bucks for interest. Other stuff to take into consideration would be road tax and insurance. For those interested in larger version, check out Toyota Altis -> approx 54k.
Well, the prices for both the Toyota Vios and Nissan Sunny are so competatitive. The Nissan sunny which is 1.6 is actually going at almost same price as Vios which is 1.5. Couldn't find any comparison between both engines. Anyway, that's all for tis wk topic.
Advance Happy Chinese New Year to all readers celebrating cny. For those who ain celebrating cny, Happy Holidays. Woof Woof..(",)

Insomia...
Another wk has juz whizzed passed. There wasn't much accomplished last week. It was probably the game which told my time away. Kinda old game, "Rise of Nations." But kinda entertained me a couple of days.
I'm still not too sure if I want to be on network or s/w side. Kinda hard to choose at the moment. Maybe both not really my expertise. I'm neither here nor there.. Jialet! Anyway, juz apply is the words to use.
Well, guess it's time of the year to shop shop shop.. haha! Can't really feel the festive mood. Maybe nothing much has been accomplished ever since I came back from brisb. Room still as messy. haha! Saw this nice looking Braun Buffel document back at a couple of places on sat. Looks great, price also very great. haha!! Starts with 3 n has 3 digits in total. Not as kua zhang as the Dunhill one which I saw, 4 digits.. haha! Siao over 1k for a document bag. Anyway, it din really look that exp. haha! Anyway, after a day of fun. It was work the next day. Sunday. Well, busy painting the living room. Having different tones on wall. Well, maybe is the makeup, like new hairstyle.
Been having too many things on the mind lately. The report and sis stuff and my own stuff. haha! I had trouble falling asleep last nite. Anyway, all thanks to Dad, that super long report was finally finished, vetted. She drop me an sms regarding it other day, was so cute.. Saying her report was piece of shit. (Suddenly it seemed so familar).. haha! Anyway, I was juz too busy to entertain her.
Any other news: Hope this wk everything goes smoothly ;) Wish me luck!
A Uni friend spoke to me that he same pri sch as u. If u know bryan.. haha! Well, that's all. (",)

King Long
Yeap, went to catch "King Kong" last nite, it was kinda long but on the plot was rather interesting. The moral of movie is "Animals also have feeling what abt human?" That's was what she said, kinda true thou. That reminds me to not to pay by credit the next time I get the tickets, cuz my card was rejected by the AXS machine. Took a stroll back from Serangoon interchange back to my place(near Bowen Sec) Haha!! Amazed that I could walk that far. Stopped by the other roti prata stall which I decided to get my dinner cum supper.
I'm kinda doing other stuff this couple of days instead of finding a job. Seems like doing everyone elses stuff. I have been like running late this couple of wks. The other nite met up the with aussie gang, which I was late as well. haha! As usual. Seeing them reminds me of good times we had in aussie. It's time for me to move on in life.
Attended the "Teaching as a career seminar" the other day. Found out that there were pple frm all walks of life. Comes to tink abt it? Can I mould the future? Teaching is a profession which u will touch the lives of others. It is really abt the intangible benefits. If I'm tinking of applying it, it's time to brush up my language.

New Year Resolutions...
2 bloggies for 1 nite. Came across a friend's blog abt new yr resolutions. Tinking abt what I should have for this yr. Actually is not one one that wrote abt resolutions, I was another one more who wrote abt it.. Ron thanks for mentioning abt the ipod mini. It's still feels a little sore hor..
I tink my last year resolution was to spend more time with family.. or was it previous yr. I remembered last year I was @ boon keng there, counting down to the new year. Tinking that in aus, things can get moving n blah blah blah. Nvr thought that came back with diff set of thinking. Maybe is not the thinking, is the management. Or was it will power. Anyway, it's time to have new set of resolutions?
1) More time with family? (how to quantify?)
2) To be more understanding? (towards pple around me? measurement?)
3) Controlling of my temper? (me got temper one hor..)
4) Clear debts? (poly sch fees to pay, uni fees? -> set up chuaq's foundation-
> donations accepted)
5) (Time needed?)
6) Cut down on procrastination (something which I seriously tink I need)
Well, first of all some will only be done when I got a job.. hahaha! Have a great wk ahead pple.. (",)

It was then when I was juz ready to embark on new journey, to place which I tot I would like to get it done over with. *Australia*. But now, haiz. I broke my record, tink I caught almost 3 matches of soccer last nite.. haha!!! -_=
