my grandad has made life easy for my dad by having all the "settings" nicely done for him. now my dad is making my future for me. and i am very grateful for it. next time, i will tell myself to do the same for my child. yea.

i guess what they say is true, how your parents taught you to grow up, is gonns be the same way as how you are gonna groom your child. and yeah, this is one of the example tht i can see clearly tht i will be following the pathway. :)

was browsing blogs(fuck balls, i cant play warcraft3 anymore! lost the cd key), came upon an article about this girl complaining about her monthly annivasary. its like she was complaining about the ambience being not there N etc when brought to the hawker center.

i would say frankly, i totally understand the need to bring the girl to the desired place that she wants but then again, i wonder, what kind of girl is this. i mean, it really sucks when your girl if you take her to a hawker and she complains.. like wtf man. i dun knoe, its very contridictory here. Perhaps, i understand the need to be at a nice place at anniversary, but to be actually pissed off because the place is not nice enough, its abit ridiculous i feel. perhaps it would be fair for the girl to be slightly disappointed, but to be pissed, tht is way too ridiculous.


man, kinda upset. i dont know man. its like, my dad bought a freehold apartment already, it was to be changed to a motel to make money. a small scale motel, and on top of that, buy a brand new condominium for me and my brother to stay. but then now, i really dun know. there is this high chance of me actually staying in this awful apartment. i really cant stand the place, if it was temporary, its ok, but not for half a year. if that happens, i might be moving out to stay my own.
tht is the sad thing. although it really nothing to be sad about, and in fact i should be gladful tht i can be able to stay in an apartment as majority stays in HDB(no disrespect to the heartlanders), but still, this is not what i really wanted. i dun knwo man. :(


some of the highlights in my life for the next few months though are pretty interesting. this time for real i will be opening my "birdnestshop.com". and i realy forsee a market for the birdnest as i am able to offer this really amazing price tht really none of my competitors are able to provide.
secondly, i like the idea of having a "motel", it can grow big to a certain extend, if business is good, i will buy over more apartments to make more of this motel.
there a chance that my dad will buy over a shophouse in Geyland(coffeeshop style, not chicken style) for about 1.2million sgd with a rent of roughly 8000 sgd. within 12 years, you break even. tht is a fuking good deal. but if the money is to be invested in geylang, i dont see how there is enough cash to buy another new condominium for me to stay. tht is why i am upset:(. as my dad says, making money is more important as i am a young guy. its true, i would rather make the 1.2 million in 12 years. but then the apartment really sucks to the core. wadever.
another interesting thing tht is happen is tht my dad has a cheque tht my dad holds. its 5000 aussie dollars, dated back to 1939 from my granddad. my dad says tht it could be worth 5 million sgd. doing simple mathematical calculation, i argue tht with even interest rate of 5% for 70 years will not yield an additional 4,995,000 dollars. i was correct until i found out that during the world war time, interest of 2-3% are based monthly. there is a good chacne tht the cheque does worth 5 million sgd. if not more. the world war2 period has increase the interest rates even higher. this is like lottery man. if it goes through, man, i can buy one new condo, and a few geylang shop houses. haha.
the other interesting thing is tht, from my house, after i get my bloody PR working for a few months, i can finally start my business tht i always wanted to but had difficulty due to the problems faced. i believe it can be good money, its got something to do with the school industry. i have not given up hope of it yet, i will be back doing it soon, but after my PR in about 3-4 months time.
A car, as long as i have a driving license, my dad will get one for the family. well, it'll be cool. mostly my parents are not around, so its between me and my brother. heh. =).

my love life? i dont know. i guess i still love this girl and she knows it too. but being single, its better in a way, lesser quarrel and expectations are lowered for real, thus sometimes disappointment will not hurt much as you really do expect lesser. =). still love her much though.

overall, i guess i am really a lucky bastard. i dont think i will ever be working 8 2 5 anymore except the period where i need to get my PR. after tht, i am gonna be a full fledge businessman. yeap yeap. =). hopefully i will not work for anyone else anymore,cause if the day tht happens, it will mean, i have failed in these businesses.

long blog yeah. had some joy writing everything. goodnight people, till next time.
