Singapore

I have been thinking and thinking this for a long very time ago. There are times when I feel like just want to go there and leave Malaysia. Words are to say, but when come to action will not be that easy anymore.

I asked myself “Does earning a little bit more but I might live in a more depressed condition worth going to Singapore?”


Now I am in Penang, there are times when I feel very very down, I just have to pack my bag and head back to ipoh and forget about doubts and problems for weekends. At least for the few days, I don’t have to think about my job, future, goals.. just sit back and enjoy the moment spent with parents.

And if I move to Singapore, then going back will not be that easy. Then where should I go? Where? Lock myself in my room and cry my heart out?

I will not move to anywhere unless I have a very sure feeling that the new environment will promise happiness to my life.

However, I might move to Singapore when suddenly I want to gamble my happiness. As people say the more you risk take, the more you will get in return.

Frankly speaking, I don’t have the courage to gamble with whatever I have now. What I have now don’t really fulfill what I am chasing for and still a very far away from here. But if I put my foot into Singapore I might lose everything that I have now. Everything..

Called me coward, stupid or whatever… those little happiness might turn into ashes with just my one step….then I will lost everything….

20 things to do in ur 20s

Read an interesting magazine’s article that I would like to share.

1) Be ur own stylish
§ Complete ur kit with a few good handbags, earrings and shoes and a stand out accessories.
(I hv few handbags, shoes but no earrings coz I don’t hv earring holes. Wonder what kind of stand out accessories that I hv..hehe)

2) Globetrot
§ Must travel to at least 3 or 4 countries foreign land just to c what life is like on the other side of Greenwich.
(I qualify 4 this one: I had visited to London, Brazil and Vietnam, wanted to travel more but traveling require $$)

3) Know ur accessories
§ By ur 20s, there r several things u should know about b4 buying a jewelry. 1st, the 4 Cs (cut, clarity, colour and carat). Next, gemstone (birthstone, anniversaries, shapes)
(Well, this is an expensive investment :P)

4) Narrow ur chum list
§ The ‘you jump, I jump’ brand of friendship wont cut it anymore from 20 onwards. As other priorities precedence in ur life, the less important friendships u hv will start to drop 1 by 1.
(I can c this is happening..)

5) Have plan B
§ U can be doing really well now, but tomorrow might not be the same anymore. Think for plan B now. Hone a skill you can trade in the event your spanking new start-up closes shop in the economic crisis.
(hmm.. I should think about my plan B now, I hv to spend more time in guitar. If economy turn down, then I can play guitar along the street in Batu Ferringhi .. hehe.. just kidding)

6) No more pity dates
§ Tell them that u r not interested gently. :P

7) Save
§ Besides ur EPF savings, you should hv a secondary retirement plan, either in the form of short term(fixed deposit) or long term(property).
(Investment is good, perhaps it is time for me to really think about this)

8) No more bitchiness
§ No bitchiness. Resolve differences by smiling and keeping an open mind – by now u should be old enough to realize that you don’t know anything.
(Never act impulsively. Try to put a smile if possible or let’s put it the other way have to smile in the appropriate situation)

9) Be man independent
§ Learn minor plumbing, hammering and nailing.
(shouldn’t be a problem 4 me)

10) Remember names
§ (I think I am disqualify this.. hehe)

11) Cook
§ No, not instant noodles.
(I can cook simple food if I want to)

12) Hv favorite wine
§ (I don’t really bother what kind of wine I drink :P)

13) Lose body art
§ (I don’t hv any, so no worries)

14) Care 4 your nails

§ Nails speak volumes about ur personal grooming (Will try my best to keep it sexy, but sometimes it’s just too difficult when I play guitar. This is the price :P )

15) Know ur music
§ (Sad to say I don’t hv any favorite type of music, I just listen to those songs that make my feel good )

16) Keep current
§ (trying my best to keep to current, sometimes just too lazy to keep myself updated)

17) Know ur government

18) Wear high heels
§ Hv at least 3 pairs of 2-inch heels
(Well, I hv only 2 pairs, do i need to add one more pair? :))
