2010 in retrospect

2010 not a very fantastic year
career - not very smooth going, lots of under-cutting by other agents,
but still manage to do quite ok
money - still no enough lah
family life - abit boring, ben can be a handful sometimes, meng is kinder to me than ben
property - bought a flat in clementi, very cash strapped now as had to use up alot of cash, giving up my king albert park rental soon
personal life - abit no life, cannot go on vacation coz ben doesn't wan to go and cannot just leave him home alone as he is still a minor
personal achievement - zilch
high points of 2010 - really can't think of anything

conclusion: not an exciting year

Ben's O level results

Honestly, not happy not sad. As a whole, it is not bad. But individually speaking, some of the A2s were expected to be A1s.

On the other hand, Ben is disappointed. Face black black and talk to me like in perpetual bad mood.

6 distinctions
2x A1
4x A2

2x C6 (these 2, he cannot be bothered as he only needs 6 subjects to get into a JC)

bonus pt = minus 3

so overall his score is 7

man in uniform

This morning around 9:45 am onwards, PIE super jam from upper bt timah exit all the way to whitley... think got 3 different accidents... the third one was terrible... bus, lorry, trucks, cars all banged up and lying at different slanted positions across lanes.... i was super late for meeting!

When I enter from jalan anak bukit, the traffic was already snailing and out of the blue i saw a traffic police bmw beside me... i thot siao liao, siao liao, i was driving on the part of the road where I was not supposed to drive on (a triangle with diagonal white lines that u can see when you come from a slip road into the highway road)... however, all the cars behind me and beside me very steady also continue to drive on with the bmw beside us... soon i saw an accident ahead and the bmw just drove ahead, slid the car in front of me at an angle and stopped.... a man in blue came out purposefully, put one hand up and wave at me to drive on, he had this unforgettable serious look on his face.... fwah i tell u man! he looked damn steady and sexy! At that very moment i realised I LIKE MEN IN UNIFORM!!!! make me flipped, swoooooooonn......

hokay i got to the office in one piece... didn't just fainted in my car when i saw the policeman... but seriously i think i may like going on a date with a policeman hahaha

blackie, flat and new beginning for 2011

Oh boy, oh boy. Meng will be coming over and he is bringing Blackie. Blackie is back! Who is Blackie??? Hahaha. Blackie is Meng's old Honda CRX. Sold to his friend and his friend is selling it back to him because the fren's mom bought herself a Merc and gave him her old car. Fwah, good mom.

Okie, Blackie is beautiful but I understand Blackie is now very dirty and smelly. Told Meng to give Blackie a good bath. Meng said will give it a thorough dettol bath. Blackie the name sounds like a dog rite? Hehehe.

I just bought a resale flat. PAID A BLOODY HIGH PRICE FOR IT! What can I do? The bloody valuation is so high and nobody is selling below valuation. Located 5 mins from where I stay now. Hehehe.... I only want to stay around this region coz it is convenient for me and Ben.

Flat was renovated 12 years ago. But the inside looks quite obiang. So many colours... let's see, got purple wardrobes, glossy deep blue kitchen cabinets, complicated cornices, black colour opaque windows, sky blue ceilings and more. For me, it is very simple: I just want neutral colours e.g. lily white, cream, beige, white and some blacks. I will be spending some money to salvage "the look" and make it more personal and to invoke a cosy feeling.

There is a huge open air carpark behind this block, therefore the view from the kitchen are all trees and a carpark, no blocking by anything. Wheeee, I can walk naked in my bedroom, e.g. come out naked from the bathroom if I forget my bath towel. From the front door, it is the road (not a major road) so again it is not blocked. On the whole, I think this block and this unit is not bad. Actually, I have always liked this block. The best thing is that, it is 2 blocks away from the old flat I used to rent (from the Malay guy). Therefore, I am very very familiar with this location and I feel very at home. I only hope Ben will grow to like it. I also hope this flat will bring me lots of deals and $$$$. The Malay guy's flat was very good. I closed many deals when I was staying there. It was only a year ago that I moved out from it after staying there for 3 years. Coffee shop and Shop n Save are just one block away. We can dine at Sunset Way more often (we haven't been to Sunset Way since moving to King Albert Park, coz we now go to Upper Bukit Timah eateries near Courts all the time). Now Ben walks to and eats at Mac and Bukit Timah market most of the time.

Okie... that's all for today. I kena one traffic offence which I also dunno how come I can get it. Sian jit puah liao.

new year coming soon... akan datang...

What is my new year's resolution for 2011? Geez, I really can't wait for the new year to come. I want to put 2010 behind me as fast as possible. 2010 has been a trying and difficult year. So many bad things happened to me. Currently, I am in the midst of a very stressful problem.


I know that I want good health, make more money, improve myself, read more books, dress smarter (improve image lah!), attend courses, change my mindset, be more tough and fierce, etc.


Will do up the list soon. Looking up and looking ahead!

2011 faster come!
