明天要从一个家回到另一个家。很难向家人解释为什么我生在新加坡，成长于新加坡，但却不能在新加坡长居。只有能更努力地工作，直到有少许成就时，大家可能会明白我为何一定要离开。

- Very well said. I admire you. If you can excel overseas (like our Stefanie Sun), it is definately worth the effort. If not, it is another learning experience for you. Nothing to loose. If stay in Singapore, definately lost alot of opportunites. Overseas are better for exploration of creative stuffs.

My mother is against me going to Japan for 1 month. Last nite she mumbles,,,"you can tahan japan's food meh? it is soo expensive also. Can go for 2 weeks wat,,why 1 mth?"

Me:Can lah,,got one thing call hamburgers wat. They have it there..

Mum: ... ... ..... (silent)

Met an online friend from China after didnt go yahoo messenger for donkey years...so went online last nite and saw him. His name is JB and now is residing in New Zealand.

Chinese are ambitous and you gotta take your hats off them. JB is one of them. When i know him 3yrs ago, he is a worker for anohter company. Now, he is running his family biz and his mum runs the plantation. He controls all the admin work from New Zealand.

Ive read articles that Chinese workers flies to other provinces over the weekend just to do interviews for big or international companies. They are always hungry and looking for more advancements.

I seldom see ppl here with such drive (maybe they are not around me?)... only one.. she was a friend's friend who workedi n the finance sector. She went to Japan for 5 years and draws a bing time salary. Now she is in HK after completing her Japan contract. More pay and lower standard of living She just bought a condo this January, which is her dream. She worked very hard for this dream.

People always expect to receive before they put in the effort. The Universe doesnt work this way. It is like a cake making theory,,,you have to mix all the flours, eggs and sugar (your efforts) and bake it before you you can eat the cake. Not waiting for the cake but didnt put anything into the mixer...

Just got this sudden tot ..i wonder if i can make US$1 million within the next 5 years? if yes, i will be a millionaire before 40. i will donate 10%, and the rest, will buy properties (to rent out) and open a chain of jrock shops worldwide (esp Germany and UK). Hmm,, I must call my millionaire friend to ask if he needs any aprehentice?!

getting philosophy again.

Oh yes, Christine, the girl's poetic note is like some church phrase,,tats wat i tot when i first read it,,lolz.
