FINANCIAL TSUNAMI

“The US will lose its status as the superpower of the world financial system. This world will become multi­polar” with the emergence of stronger, better capitalised centres in Asia and Europe, Mr Steinbrück told the German parliament. “The world will never be the same again.”

I've never cared abt the economy because I used to think it doesnt affect me. Im just a mediocre Sin-ka-bo-lien afterall. <-- Thats what I USED TO think. Okay fyi, I just leapt out of the well.

Frankly speaking, I feel so burdened knowing the recessions are on their way to invade companies. Freah graduands are in to taste the economy tsunami pretty soon. How many breadwinner will lose their jobs, how many old uncle aunties will be sacked and struggle with living expenses. Its sad to know that there're old people today who live on $1 for every meal. $1 not even enough to buy a coke frm kopitiam.

It doesnt feels good when I hear the protestors frm HK crying on the teevee, trying to convey their agony of losing lifetime savings to the govt. How would you feel if your lifetime savings were declared with just a strike off your bank book overnight.

All because the managing director of the bank made a wrong forcast of the economy insight. But who doesnt makes mistakes?

●●●

The most trustable organization can fall;
The most accurate insight we earn can turn out otherwise;
The investment and loses can be just overnight,
but one thing I know; God's word never changes.

Greater things.

I thought I accidentally knowingly deleted the entire photo folder that contains our photos for my birthday dinner. But thank god I found them in my thumbdrive! In fact, I was pretty grumbly to myself for quite a while! Know why? Because we meet up once in a blue moon. Yeah, we always got 1001 excuses to cancel our meet-ups; may it be work/class/dates/church.

Dinner at Shokudo, the Japanese food bazaar at Raffles City.





Thanks for taking time out for dinner. I was actually very much surprised that you girls managed to fork time out to remember & celebrate my bday despite of all your busy schedules! Thanks for the generous treat to Haagen Daz ;) I know all your pockets are burnt. hehe Lets meetup more at Shokudo!

Five girls; guess which one is me! :D


♥♥

Friday night was spent wit the girlfrens! :D
They're my happy pies because they never fail to make my day! Too bad Wentao wasn't able to join us bcos of her Jap class. But its okay Tao! I received your early bday wishes :) Whr's Sabby? I dont know.


Nuggets likes to take ugly expressions. They turn out to be pretty funny! I guess I was irritated by the overwhelming eye-pricking shutter flash! And I dont know abt those expressions! haha


Soft Shell Crab & (Soft?) Rice


FINGERFOOD like tomyam soup. We like We like.


Thats right! We're the legendary FINGERFOOD!




S U R P R I S E ! !
I didnt expect the girls to come to me with the macarons :D


Nuggets protecting the fire..
(Scroll 1 photo down, look at the 2nd)


I was searching through all the wishlists in my mind, trying to pick out one of em. There I realized I have too many wishes.


& you see nuggets still protecting the fire when I was blowing off the candles. WHY AH?


This got to be Caramel-Nougat! I think they serve better ice-creams than Venezia. (Venezia fans gonna jeer at me! bahaha) Anw, Im definitely going back cos the outdoor setting appeals much to me.


Now you got a chance to see.. the lau-kok-kok phone Im using for the past 2 weeks! It's the blue antique that gives out yellow lights and black fonts. Cool anot!


Fruity Herbal Tea. Me like, me always like.


I photoshopped my fringe. Thats why it looks so fake.
But its better than the unphotoshopped copy yeah. haha


Sing Laugh Shout & Smile by our days.




The woman I love, she know.


Gladys got too riveted by a tissue seller (an old lady). She was counting how much packets of tissue she sold and her profits. 4 dollars for 3 packets of tissue! Who wanna buy, who wanna buy?


Saturday was ma-bo-lous!
Kangwei, "Shan you must have thought that we forgot your bday right." Noo.. But I didnt expected you guys to know my bday! lol, & thats why I was very surprised when the cg sang me bday song!

Our famous 'Blessing' song :)




♥ My cranky cellgrp!


Rickson & my bday falls on the same day;
Thanks for the chocolates!


I dont think many pple know that I love helium-filled balloons? Perhaps the old N421 will because we used to have our cg at Moxi's place & woodlands sells a lot of them :)



Mar, Shan, Nixi, Jie Yi


weifangweishanweifangweishan




hello, Benny.


Thats my cranky old friend






Pretty Kimonos! Ask me ask me whr to get them!

I had a birthday countdown in the mrt.
JieYi: Now now is your bday! Me: Not yet not yet. See Nixi's phone. Still got 1 min. Nixi: Ya. I think still got 1 more min. JieYi: Is it. But my time very accurate one.

& boyf had a little tiff wit me at 12am sharp ):<>
We missed our last train to red line. I thought of sitting at the platform to wait for the next train so that Jie Yi & me would have more time to chat. Who knows the train in front of our eyes is the last train. & we bid our last train bye.



Theres A LOT of crazy/cranky/ecstatic photos taken but am not blogging it up; no image alr! oh my.
& twentieth was forced unto me. I didnt want!

Uncle drove us down to Vienna for buffet.


This playful rascal passed me a Doraemon mouse a week ago & told me thats my bday present because army man got no time to buy girlfren anything. & I believed!

Nevertheless, Thank you baby!





See of Tom Yum, think of Womanilove.


See of Sashimi, think of my BJ good frens :D
Khaki, Jo & Stella! We spam sashimi crazilly in BJ.


Handsome dad.


Haven had a bday w/o them :)



At night, I met up with Steph Tango. Cant believe Im mtg this girl up on my bday night. We walked rounds in town to find FOOD. Octopus balls to Japanese pork balls to Coffee Bean to Delifrance to Starbucks to Toast Box. Its crazy.

I wasnt exactly in the right birthday mood that night. Blues. Partly because boyf wasnt by my side, next reason was one of my bestestest fren bided me bye couple of mths ago. ANYWAY, that is it! C'mon c'mon look forward.



We squeezed ourselves into some small-sized money-cheating machine to take IC photos. SO UGLY OHBBERRYAHHGELY! We laughed our way home.



Thanks to those who remember my day, who jumped on me for a hug, who treated me food, who bought me preeesents, who wasted 5 cents to send me an sms or even 10 cents to call me. Thank you! Am happy.
