last day of the break before returing 2 ubi br

finally on the second night of my break, thought things really clearly and thoroughly , better to make decison later to commit than to waste another 10-20k on money which can be put to better use
this morning i solve the costume error, went to the seamstress to get it fixed , as well as some of the other clothes which needed immediate attention ,as for my uniform, got to make a trip to orchard tomorrow to fix it, its $10
ok morning activities. spent some quality time trying to ammend some relationship with dad. had brunch with him, passed him the allowance, went chinatown market to shop for his fav fish there
really got to strongly influence him to stop him from helping brother worm who is an incorrigible idiot
manage to allocat the resources for the respective expenses and make a clearer point on saving more money as well as looking into the various bills to clear. finally finish paying off the debts on payday
another task was to reorganise the wardrobe and my study table
hmmn. its goin to b a gloomy year ahead.. but lets nt let it affect our cheery moods for the oncoming festival ahead. with careful plannig and spending . within a budget i m sure , we will be able to enjoy ourselves as well
as for my dad i think i m getting used to the fact that he doesnt like to solve problems, refuses to face up to reality, narrow minded , unwilling to open up , and this could be the contributing factors of not effectively communicating
which will eventually put him in a unfavourable position , being taken advantage of and being taken for granted
a fren just asked me how i gonna celebrate my 25th bdae, i tot abt it
somewhere natual .. free from computer and crowd
perhaps i can start e day with a gd workout and end it with a sumptous meal. need not be fancy restaurant. could b budget like homecooked or cheap food
with the most minimum cost involved. do i sound difficult.
n a bit of planning involved. should be able to create gd deal of ambience
i have done my part by advising and consulting dad
the mindset is more difficult to influence especially after 65 years of his post war baby thinking. .guai guai stay put and will be stable and soon soon throughout the rest of the life, and this only brings average standard of living with no extra indulgences whereas stability is the key whilst in modern century, changes are inevitable for continous improvement and progress . there are new and ambiguity in choices and decisons we make everyday, with both sides of the coin flashing , its essential to make a key and wise conclusion to avoid going the "wrong " ways
waste time, effort, youth and energy.
its about effiency, simplicity. speed and effectiveness these days , with cost cutting measures in most organisations, tighting up the belts .somehow everyone has to realize the value of money one day when theres adversity
theres this chinese saying.
qiong zhe bian tong. meaning when u r poor. u will think out of the box, every possible idea or solution to make things work , n being flexible is important in todays' context
my family and lsb visited a stall in jusco, shopping mall in malaysia selling egg cakes, this assistatnt didnt practise flexibility, she refuse to sell us cakes when theres an immediate sale, and by not be able to communicate in english , she lost a sale also and we didnt find it was nice as well
chinatowm market which i visited earlier is a lot cleaner than compared 5-10years ago
changes a lot. but for the better although inital it will cause a bit of slight discomfort for everyone because everyone is so used to the convenience and the familarity
