$$ money money $$

A weird thought came to me while i was shopping just now.. Is it possible that at least 80% of the population worry about having not enough money? The money can of course be for cars, houses, education, and not forgetting SHOPPING! hee okie yup occasional indulgence. Most of my friends are presently working while waiting for results and despite the higher salary we receive now (compared to the allowance we got last time), we frequently complain that we're broke. Yeah the sad truth is, the more you earn, the more you spend. By right the marginal propensity to consume (ah hah! econs!!) will decrease eventually because the proportion spent gets lesser and lesser, provided you dont start buying LV, AX, GUCCI and wat not. So why is it that girls are more prone to spend more because they have this mentality that: "aiyah i'm earning money anyway, buy abit wun die lah..."?!?!?! Is it the girls' neverdying thirst for more clothes, bags and shoes??? maybe it's just like guys and soccer or cars i guess. Sighs
I kept thinking about this when some of my friends are telling me that they've spent all of their first pay or something.. Now i think the CPF is set up specially to protect women. Without CPF, we'd shop all day long, thinking that we're super rich and by the time we're old and saggy we've got nth to fall back on. Okie CPF is good, i shant complain when my pay gets deducted again next time. =X
Nevertheless, i'm still unhappy since i'm feeling broke again. Baby almost gave me his atm card but i decided that i cant spend someone's money before i'm even married to him. ( yeah i still have moral values =P) Looks like i need to scrimp and save before my next pay comes. The neverending sales in town are driving me crazy. Everything seem so cheap and pretty i get so tempted to buy everything home. Arggghhh.
I'm sad. There's still a week before next pay comes. They'd better not pay me late again. Gggrrr. Now i gotta prepare for my tuition. My other source of income. Bahhhh.
I must buy less shoes, less bags, less make up and less clothes from now on. I need to SAVE!!! shant buy anything more than twice a month. Yeah yeah yeah! I shall remain motivated. Hee
Some sources said RJ got 500ppl with 4As!!! If only it's 100% with 4As!! Ahhh I'm stressed out! All the best to me tomorrow >_<

and my one month holiday starts..
Thursday, February 23, 2006
Yay i finally left the job and i've been quite slack since. Oh well.. so slack that i fell sick. It must have been the relief teaching in the primary school. Gosh.. It sucks to raise my voice at kids across the basketball court. Argghhh.. now i've got sore throat. =( Despite this i just accepted another one for tmr, in a sec school hee. I've got to make up for my shopping trip today. Bought loads of stuff. Wait till i take a picture of my pretty black skirt :) hee the irritating people before happily bought both colours of the skirt that i wanted, so i had to walk all the way from heeren to far east. Wat the hell.. why do rich people like to flaunt their wealth this way?! If not for the fact that they had the last last piece in Far East i would have strangled them. *strangle strangle strangle* Yup anyway there's like sale everywhere. Too much temptation already. I've got more clothes on my buying list now. Oh dear... =X
this is the tuition centre where i worked at.. with the people who are there.. Taz and Mr Wong.. All the teachers at that branch are quite nice.. Taz is quite a nice branch manager too.. hee Somehow i think i'll miss their crappy talks.. =X
nice nice baby went to work with me :)
and we decided to eat soft shell crab cuz i love to eat tt.. hee.. :P
The day before we had seoul garden!! yum yum
happy happy!! I'll see him on saturday nite again.. whee! :) :)

dark dark world
Wednesday, February 15, 2006
A few days back, i learnt about scheming some people can be. Perhaps it's like this in the working world. Eye opener for many, especially of my age. Why do people want to resort to such lowly methods? I contemplated for really long, finally decided that many adults will do almost anything to get into the good books of their bosses. Bosses love employees that help them save money dont they? But the question is, what's the point of paying them gi-normous amounts to reward them for saving the company's money? It doesnt make much sense to me. Either way, the boss loses out. Eventually only the stupid HR person gains from everything. Idiots. She looks angelic but inside her, i guess i really wouldnt want to know about it. Fancy cheating an 18year old. I'm utterly disappointed, with this so-called senior of mine. No wonder some people denounces elitism. Maybe there's really no big deal about the elites. They may not necessarily be the most productive or efficient workers. One day those 'elites' might just turn against their bosses. 'Betrayal' is such a common thing in the working world. As i was told. All i can say is, when your mum tells you that there's no one else to trust besides yourself or (sometimes your family), trust her. Words of wisdom to take heed of. =)
another valentine's day spent alone, okie not quite, i was at work with loads of kids running around me. The call from baby before i finished work made my day. :) He managed to call me from field camp. The one minute talk may be short, but it was the best thing i received since the week has started. I'm so looking forward to friday even though results are not out this week. Oh wells. :P

cheapo tuition centres
Thursday, February 09, 2006
I officially tendered my resignation. Man, i feel good. I cant wait to leave that place as soon as possible. They make me go so early to answer phone calls and when usually there's only one or two phone calls early in the morning. Waste of manpower, resources, my time and money. Basically i calculated that after deducting my transportation fares and meals spending i'm left with like only 100bucks to spend. -_- it sux. Seriously. And initially i was told it'd be 1000+ plus commission each month. Guess what? now there's no such thing call a commission since i'm not working until june. Super pissed now. I wasted my time being nice and help them get the customers. Ggrrrr. Looks like working life really as easy as it seems. The next time round i shall be extra careful. I feel so exploited. Even salary is paid late. Gggrrrr To think i gave up my UOB job for this. dumb dumb me. =(=(=(
Anyway there's rumours that results will be out on the 17th.. haix.. i'm kinda worried. Seriously. i wish i can get the results as soon as possible. I dont wanna wait anymore.

Chinese New Year
Friday, February 03, 2006
Yay they booked out on New Yr's eve for reunion dinner and they had a 6days break! I was so excited to see baby :) That day was bad because we wanted to eat subway but it was closed! Most places were either too crowded or closed so we had to settle for burger king. Sighs. Anyway this new year is still okie, collected about the same amt of money as previous years. Hee. On the 2nd day baby came to bai nian and i also went to his house. Omg both of us were so stressed out because it's our first time meeting each other's parents. Eeeks. Luckily everything turned out fine. I ended up looking at all his baby photos. Hahaha so cute. As for him, it was even better since both of us just ended up playing mahjong and daidee with my sis and her bf. Oh wells. My ah ma and mum gave him beeeg ang bao manx.. lucky boy..
my family with my cute grandparents
at my grandparents' house :)
Yup for the next few days we watched a few movies and ate loads of good stuff :P One of them is the haagen daaz valentine's day fondue. Elena told me about it first and i was pretty excited to try it so when we saw them launch it we went to try it immediately. But.. i dont really think it is that fantastic. There were only 4 flavours out of the 14tiny scoops of ice cream and there were quite little fruits and other stuff too. I was abit disappointed to see that there was no brownies. Bahhh..
They are back in camp again. The next time i see him will be the 18th of Feb! It's a long long way to go manx.. life's gonna be boring.. ahhhhh 18th come quickly!! 28th should come quickly too.. i want a new job!!
