Was thinking about S before i went to sleep last night. Was thinking if she will recovery her memory? Brain is like a cpu. When something happens to the cpu, information Might be lost. I hope S dont lost her memory coz she has alot of wonderful memories in her life. She always goes holiday trips with her family and had a close knitted family life.
I wondered what would happen if i lost all my memory..it would be like erasing everything and start all over again...
Received a kuku question from a local girl this morning. she asked if the arena special feat. gazette is new..perhaps im impatient so i think it is a kuku question. Nonetheless, only locals will ask kuku questions and never follow order format. They think we have psycho power to know they are from Spore.
Read a chinese article from a NTU student. He/she wrote about the dressings of Singaporeans. He/She said perhaps it is our weather that we are in "national uniform - t-shirts and jeans" or we are tooo afraid to stand out from the crowd. He commented about HK, Taiwan and Japan where ppl wear according to their personality. Here, we tend to follow the fashion from mags or idols. If one were to wear too outstanding here, ppl will start to criticise. He/She cited a girl from the same school who puts thick make-up with loud attire and students in the campus starts to whisper among themselves. He/She hope that Singapore will be famous for it's fashion in the near future. We have famous finance and government system but nowhere in fashion..
This article is So TruE.. Salute to those who braved to cosplay last Sunday!~~
And Maki ----> Where are your "tonnes" of punk clothings you've bought from Japan last year? Only saw you wore once.... Glad his order for the Grassroot guitar went well :)

S is recovering well
Visited S this evening. She was semi-conscious. Her mum was by her side. Auntie said they were at JB when she fainted during a karaoke session after dinner. They rushed her to a nearby hospital but the hospital;s facilities were poor. They need the ambulance to send S to Spore hospital but that hospital demanded a whopping S$900, if not they wont do it. So, they paid it. Auntie hoped to have a plane that time.
Not sure if S can recognise me today. She opened her eyes a few times and went to sleep.. The doc said she can be discharged this Sat..but Auntie dont feel safe. So, had extended 1 more week. Glad her condition is improving.
After the visit, took the wrong bus. Shld take 198 but took 196 without realising it was wrong until i sense "how come different route?" in the middle of the journey..den immediately alight..
when came home, realised i had half a bottle of water left..i was kinda thristy during the journey but had forgotten i had the water with me...Im soo forgetful!~

S in hospital
Got an sms from S's brother this morning saying she is hospitalised. Upon probing, she was being hospitalised since 1st May!~ Omg....it has been almost a month...her blood vessels in the brain burst and right side of her brain have stroke. She had a few brain surgeries already and today was being transferred to normal ward..Gosh,,i just saw her on the 26th April and she was still so bubbly. (She was the one who copied the X dvd).
Will visit her tomorrow.
Live is soo vulnerable..just look at the Sichuan quake and MC King.
Where is my Purpose? Scared havent found my purpose,,ive already left liao...like tat, bai lai le.

Hellion guitar , ebay and rants
Note from a happy Customer - Carolina!~ (got poka dots decorations too ^^)Received this email from Carolina this morning.
She received the guitar on the 22nd and was so busy playing with it and suddenly remembered to she need to send me the guitar pics.. and shun bian order 2 sets of the grand finale guitar pick sets. The ESP box is very cool!~~
Left some ratings for customers at ebay this morning and found out they had a new rule. Sellers can no longer give negative ratings to Buyers. What kind of rule is this? If the buyer dont pay and sellers cant give negative ratings, how can sellers know if a potential buyer is a genuine buyer? It is such an unfair rule to seller.. So, now at ebay, everyone has a Clean Record. This is the most stupidest rule ive ever come across. This rule makes ebay having a similar rule as Paypal. Both companies side with the buyers. Hope we always have genuine buyers..it depends on our luck.
Mum complained tat 18packs of 3 in 1 milo now cost more than S$6...so she didnt buy. I told her if she feels tat standard of living is high here, she should move to
JB..lolz....
Strange thing is, i feel Japan's food is cheap by their standard..most meals dont cost more than S$12 and the portion is very hugh. One day one set is enough liao,other meals on bread or snacks are enough.
S emailed to buy bento set stuffs and asked hw much i spend for my 1mth there,, i think total is about S$7k. She said it is very cheap..i also think so,,coz mostly i spend on food and soveniers. She is working in a travel agency in chinatown but it has lower pay than her previous sales job. It is simple job and off weekends. She is kinda happy/contented with it..i think it is a human trait. Once we are in our comfort zone,,we are satisfied and stops there.
My dog's lump under her stomach is getting bigger and she is in pain coz she shivers occasionally at the lower part of her body. So worried about it. My sis will bring her to the vet tomorrow afternoon. The only way to get rid of the lump is by operation but she has a weak heart. So,can only depend on medication. Had bandaged her lump since Sunday nite to prevent it from drooping even more.. hope she can get well after visiting the vet tml.
Deleted all my pics at flickr account coz it wass too messy. It is not according to date coz i anyhow uploaded it last time. I feel tat it is an eyesore if it is not in sequence. Am uploading them in perfect sequence now.
Went steamboat buffet with LP after sunday's street fest. Told her about the idea of selling bubble tea in japan and she was so enthusiastic. Prior to this, she said her bf asked her to start her own biz but she is afraid. So, i asked when she is not afraid of the bubble tea thingy. She said "no mah, i see u so brave, i also brave liao". Err,,can like tat meh? San fen zhong re du ba. Then she said "so, you go check out everything and lemme noe hw much is required.". Well, say can ,,do is soo difficult. From this conversation, can feels she will only be a sleeping partner. I prefer a partner who is pro-active. Still pondering about this idea coz taiwan is so near japan, how come this culture didnt go to Japan. I asked her this and she has no idea too. I asked for other ideas and she said "donuts". I said cant, coz there is Mister Donut there lah! I told her im not in dire straits yet,if im really at dire straits better ideas will come...hahaha
Every Adversity bring Opportunity.

Botak Jones
Had Botak Jones for dinner today. It is the popular Cajun chicken set. It is definately worth the price (S$7.50) because it is very oiishi and portion is big. It definately taste better than Breek's! It has printed receipts and they ask for your name too. It is printed on the receipt.~ Highly recommended.
Listening to Hirai Ken's The Changing Same. He has such a good vocal. I hope to go to his concert someday.
Listened to X's Dahlia album yday..ahh,, the old good Toshi's vocal...

The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho
Last night watched Xi You Ji at Channel U.
The guy in the show was inspired by this book that he gave up his high flying job in the States to work in a non-profit foundation to support Social Entreprenuer in the 3rd world country.
The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/865.The_Alchemist
These are the famous quotes from this book that inspires him. He said he could go on and make tonnes of money (but he will spend tonnes of it too) but he felt empty in his life until he read this book. He has made the mission of helping the poor his passion. He is living a full life.
"When you aspire for something with passion, all the universe conspires to make it happen. "
"Wherever your heart is, there you will find your treasure"
Belinda Lee (the host of this programme) said her dream is to build an art school in Sporean for poor students and make it a place where they can fufill their dream. She said everyday, she asked herself "What is her purpose in life".
Where is my treasure/purpose? I am still searching for it.

super expensive postage
The Norway customer just emailed to informed she had helped to mail the PWTB04 pamphlet to another customer in Austria. The total bill came up to S$50.29!! OMG...i emailed to asked if she used Express mail coz she said the Austria girl will receive in a few days time.
To make things worst, i gave the Austria girl free shipping and she paid S$78 for the pamphlet. The postage is really horrendous. I wonder why she didnt ask me before she settle for such an expensive shipping. It is my fault coz i told her to send...Seriously, mailing of this pamphlet from spore to Austria is only S$25, with registered mail somemore. To think from Norway to Austria is double this amount, despite both countries are in the Northern side.. sooo jialat siar!!~~

Interesting article
What this blogger says is very true to our society.
http://www.fastcompany.com/blog/24642
1. 2nd article - Is Narrowness Killing Innovation?
We have tonnes of ‘job-ready’ students here. Luckily vonnie isnt going to be one.
2. 3rd article - Growing Up In a Cotton Wool World
We dont have original playgrounds. Issues describe here is exactly what has happened to Spore too. I always feels that our youths here cannot undergo any hardship. This article states what i have in mind perfectly well. We are living in false security.
More articles.

Just love such sites..it says about many updated ideas and things going around us.
Last few days read the chinese newspaper and one of its reporter dont even know there is an earthquake in Sichuan until her sister emailed her from the States asking her to contact their brother who is working in Sichuan.. She said she is happily living in her "Own World".
During school days and early working years, i also lived in my own world until someone struck me when i was doing part-time job. That time i was 22. This ang mor customer asked about some World music (i was working in a music store) and i knew nothing. The world music section is just next to my Asian music dept. That evening no staff for that section was working, so i had no choice but to serve that customer. All the titles and artists he wants are non that ive heard off.
In the end, he served me instead. He introduced me so many artistes and genres at the rack. It was so embarrasing. We became friends. Coincidently, he was heading to Tokyo 5 days later and im going there 3 days later. So, we met up at Shinjuku. Prior to that, we went out for lunch one afternoon he asked me a question that i wouldnt forget till this day. He asked "young lady, what do you want to do in life." It was such a simple question yet a so-hard to answer one. I never tot of this question coz i was happily in my own world. After hearing his life story (he was mid-forties btw), it really broaden my views about the world. It was then that i came out of my own world. His name is AJ and his last job was the Director of Investment for Sony usa's Venture Captalist group. He is a qualified industrial lawyer. Now he do freelance teaching for Universities in China on the topic of Patent rights and is writing some books on Innovations ( i think). He has successfully published a book in Japan about Jewish (He is a Jewish) with the help of his Japanese wife who does the translation. This man is amazing and told him i looked upon him as my mentor. We can talk about anything under the sun. He likes Japanese bands too, like Tokyo Ska Paradise, Sheena Ringo, YMO etc.
Listening to his life story is like watching a movie about his life. It has so many different interesting phrases. Will summerise it.
1. After completing his college, he dunno what he wants to do in life. So, he went to a book store and be a sales clerk.
2. The store owner's grandmother asked him one day "Young man, what do you want to do in life? I dont think you want to spend your whole life in this bookstore. You should go out and explore what you want to do in life". That was his turning point of his life.
3. He went home that day and told his parents that he wants to study Engineering in the Universities. His parents do like this idea coz they want him to be a lawyer. In the end, he signed up for the Law faculty but studied engineering at the same time. He said it was hard work but this way, he can pleased his parents and himself.
4. Upon graduation, the school arranged them for internship. He was very lucky to be assigned for a project that requires him to interview all the head of many law firms along Wall Street. After the intership, he easily got hired in a law firm due to the contacts he got during the intership. Tedious and endless hours of work followed. He worked very hard, earned alot of money but no time to spend or relax.
5. His marriage then fell apart. His Taiwanese wife was pregnant with other man's child. She had a 9 year old daughter from her previous marriage. They divorced and he to pay her alot of money. He quit his job after the divorced. He went to travel around the world for 6mths.
6. South Africa, Brazil and many Asia forests..he really took time off to enjoy and slow down his life.
7. Until he went to Japan, he met a lovely Japanese lady in her 40's. It was love a first sight and on the 3rd day of their meeting, he proposed to her.
8. They settle in the States (California) but he comes to Asia (Japan and China) for his freelance jobs.
He too, dont know what he wants to do after graduating from college. It is a phrase that everyone goes thru, unless you are certain you want to work in some sector after you graduate.
Vonnie, think if you want to do something extraordinary in Japan, it would be food..lolz.. sell Spore curry chicken or ice kachang.. It is because the Japanese are very receptive of trying new things. :)
There was a local curry puff seller (not Old Chang kee) whose son sells curry puff in a ulu place in China. In the end, it was so successful now that they are doing expansion. Dont undermined the power of Curry puff. Old Chang Kee sell until now become a public listed company. I was hoping for such ideas too and the target market is Japan. They are really a cash rich country. After all, all things starts from idea and starts small. There must be something i can contribute or a niche i can find to fill the market. I pray that this idea comes fast.
Btw, every Wed 8pm at Channel U, there is this travel programme about Sporeans abroad. It is a very interesting show. The next epidsope is about a Sporean man in Switzerland (i think) and he does some kind of charity work for the Third World. These are the types of Sporeans that are not afraid to venture overseas. Their stories are very admirable. *Salute*

back
ive been feeling lazy lately..maybe coz of the long holiday..lolz. now im craving for fried banana. It is a sudden crave..soo oily yet soo oiishi!~ There is a stall in the Rochor hawker centre that sells very oiishi goreng pisang.
today stayed at home and take naps. F smsed to say she wants to order Ryuichi kawamura's some speciak FC 3dvd. She very funny lor,,said "Ryu's dvd". Heng i know who is Ryu,,kekekee. but she said it is FC version,so have to ask Kaori if she can buy.
Talking about Kaori, sat received the hide's tees. Got a super pleasant surprise from Kaori. She send me a bag of flyers from the hide's memorial summit!!!! I was whole bag of it!! I was sooooooo awe and cant help laughing with joy!!~ I emailed her keitai to thank her profusely. It was really a super surprise!
yday went for a meet up at 12pm near my hse. The customer was 15mins late..in the end,,were late for another 2 meet ups along the way. one was a new customer (hide fan) and in the end, he gotta go to outram park mrt at 1245pm to meet me coz i was super late (our meet up time at cityhall was 1230pm). Was at outram park coz need to pass another girl her h.naoto stuffs. If gotta meet this hide boy,,think i will reach cityhall hall at 1255pm..den the poor boy will have to wait for soo long. Heng he didnt mind to go to outram park to pick up his stuffs. He stayed in TPY.. the scary part abt meet up is, when 1st customer is late,,i will be late for everyone down the line...
After the meet up went to the kwan yin temple and after that went to buy red dates and ginko. I think my memory is fading,,so need some ginkos,,hahah. I went home and peel the half kg of ginko, boiled and weed out the bitter "heart" of the ginko. Will brew it with barely or red dates some time this week.
Last Thu drank red date tea 3 times throughout the day and from Sat onwards,,my voice went almost missing. my mum said red dates are heaty. So, Yday on way back, went to ntuc and saw some ppl buying fresh coconuts,,so i went to buy 2 too. It was sooooo hard to rip open...finally managed to rip open. It's my first time drinking from the coconut shell. It was soooo cooling. My voice resumed today.
so fast june is around the corner. Half of 2oo8 is almost over and i didnt feel ive acheived anything..haiz...
Last night read 2 interesting chinese articles from lian he zao ba. One was about Contentment. She says, human always crave for things they dont have, but after they have, they want somemore. On the other hand, people who has money and fame craves to lead a normal live.
The 2nd article is from at lady advertising guru. She told the reporters why sporeans dressed soo "shabbily" when in Orchard road. T-shirts, jeans and slippers. They wear like that when they are overseas, so it is easy to spot a Sporean. Sooo true. She said in Japan, hk and taiwan, ppl dress nicely when they go out. It is a respect to other people.
Last time there was also an article about Sporean's dressing shabbily to board the planes..in t-shirts, bermudas and slippers. They even have photos of it...
There's a joke about a group of sporean travelling to one European country. I heard this from the radio. At the lobby of the hotel, that group of sporeans were to last to check it. Why? It is because, the hotel staff needs to give Sporeans Special Briefings. The staff told that group "pls do not hang your innerwears and towels on the lamp cover!". Only Sporeans will do such thing! They were to last to check it coz the staff does not want other tour groups to overhead this embarasing briefing... It was such a hilarious story. It was from one member of this tour group who called the radio to share her funny story about Sporeans abroad. Sporeans,,tsk tsk tsk... i die die dont want to associate with them when im overseas...
today stayed at home and take naps. F smsed to say she wants to order Ryuichi kawamura's some speciak FC 3dvd. She very funny lor,,said "Ryu's dvd". Heng i know who is Ryu,,kekekee. but she said it is FC version,so have to ask Kaori if she can buy.
Talking about Kaori, sat received the hide's tees. Got a super pleasant surprise from Kaori. She send me a bag of flyers from the hide's memorial summit!!!! I was whole bag of it!! I was sooooooo awe and cant help laughing with joy!!~ I emailed her keitai to thank her profusely. It was really a super surprise!
yday went for a meet up at 12pm near my hse. The customer was 15mins late..in the end,,were late for another 2 meet ups along the way. one was a new customer (hide fan) and in the end, he gotta go to outram park mrt at 1245pm to meet me coz i was super late (our meet up time at cityhall was 1230pm). Was at outram park coz need to pass another girl her h.naoto stuffs. If gotta meet this hide boy,,think i will reach cityhall hall at 1255pm..den the poor boy will have to wait for soo long. Heng he didnt mind to go to outram park to pick up his stuffs. He stayed in TPY.. the scary part abt meet up is, when 1st customer is late,,i will be late for everyone down the line...
After the meet up went to the kwan yin temple and after that went to buy red dates and ginko. I think my memory is fading,,so need some ginkos,,hahah. I went home and peel the half kg of ginko, boiled and weed out the bitter "heart" of the ginko. Will brew it with barely or red dates some time this week.
Last Thu drank red date tea 3 times throughout the day and from Sat onwards,,my voice went almost missing. my mum said red dates are heaty. So, Yday on way back, went to ntuc and saw some ppl buying fresh coconuts,,so i went to buy 2 too. It was sooooo hard to rip open...finally managed to rip open. It's my first time drinking from the coconut shell. It was soooo cooling. My voice resumed today.
so fast june is around the corner. Half of 2oo8 is almost over and i didnt feel ive acheived anything..haiz...
Last night read 2 interesting chinese articles from lian he zao ba. One was about Contentment. She says, human always crave for things they dont have, but after they have, they want somemore. On the other hand, people who has money and fame craves to lead a normal live.
The 2nd article is from at lady advertising guru. She told the reporters why sporeans dressed soo "shabbily" when in Orchard road. T-shirts, jeans and slippers. They wear like that when they are overseas, so it is easy to spot a Sporean. Sooo true. She said in Japan, hk and taiwan, ppl dress nicely when they go out. It is a respect to other people.
Last time there was also an article about Sporean's dressing shabbily to board the planes..in t-shirts, bermudas and slippers. They even have photos of it...
There's a joke about a group of sporean travelling to one European country. I heard this from the radio. At the lobby of the hotel, that group of sporeans were to last to check it. Why? It is because, the hotel staff needs to give Sporeans Special Briefings. The staff told that group "pls do not hang your innerwears and towels on the lamp cover!". Only Sporeans will do such thing! They were to last to check it coz the staff does not want other tour groups to overhead this embarasing briefing... It was such a hilarious story. It was from one member of this tour group who called the radio to share her funny story about Sporeans abroad. Sporeans,,tsk tsk tsk... i die die dont want to associate with them when im overseas...

pink spider
Not heard this song before...so im not sure how the original version sounds. Just watched the memorial version. It sounds pop to me...
watching I.V. now and Toshi went out of tune at some parts. Most fans commented about his poor vocal but a few were defensive of him. Well, if ppl are not X fans, who is bothered to comment? Favourite band is favourite band, but have to be realistic. Poor vocal = poor vocal, esp if it is your fav band, it matters more to you than anything.
Ive found the "forget the lyrics" track during the reunion. It is Forever love. A fan said he is too emotional to sing. Not sure if it is true. It is the first song on 3.29.
Forever Love
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yM8zDMul8VQ
01:03 is where he stop singing but the camera didnt focus on him, but on the fans and yoshiki instead.
On a side note, looking at Pata makes one feels calm.
Last night almost mis-sold my own X tee to Matthew. Actually promised to sell him last sat but last night realised it's mine, not extra one. So, smsed Kevin and ask him to inform Matthew tat cant sell him the tee liao. Luckily Vonnie can sell her extra tee to Matthew. Phew!~~~ Thanks alot to Vonnie!~
I dont want my X tees to "san que yi" (3 minus 1). All 4 tees must be together.. Now cant find liao,,i think. Last few days saw the keitai strap at yahoo japan;s auction..it went up to Y4500+..can imagine for the t-shirt..
Not sure if their World Tour tee and goods are the same? If it is different, i am interested to buy to tee and hp straps. There's a VS customer from Europe and she is going to the Paris show but she isnt sure if she can get the tickets.
For the X dubbed dvd, bad news. No one knows how to decode it to regular dvd version. So, have to buy a dvd-recorder inorder to watch. Just checked out ebay spore and the cheapest is about S$250, 2nd hand... not sure if shld buy??? If buy, will buy brand new one..
2 years back, Amy bought a vcr player coz she wanted to watch a hyde's video tape...it cost her S$80.
..... ...... ...... .....
The "paranoid" hide girl will go to the gig on 24th too. Will pass her the X pamphlet. Last few days she said she isnt feeling good (low mood). Hope she feels better during that day. :) I think she will wear a X tee. Perhaps i will see some local fans who went to the X reunion live too.
The local girl who watched the 3 nights concert is very cool. She showed me the shots in her digi cam where she wore kimono and took pictures under some sakura trees. She was there for 1 month too. Other pics she took were plants and birds. She is kinda artistic. I forget to ask for her name.. She is the only girl ive met from Spore and watched all 3 nights. All others were guys and they watched either 1 or 2 nights.
The Italian girl havent receive her guitar. im so worried. Her guitar's status is:
May 14 17:01 Awaiting presentation to customs commissioner
She will need to pay lots of tax...she said her father is very sweet. He gave her a new credit card yesterday to pay for the photos coz her sister's paypal account's credit card has expired. She dreamt a few days ago that the uruha guitar was broken when she opened the box. She is overly worried for the guitar. She just learned how to use the guitar effects processor. 16 year old super Gaze-fanatic xiao mei mei. I salute her!~ Tong ren bu tong ming.
Hope she receives her guitar today...this item is too ex to afford any errors.

Rusty nails - this song has the least off key and out of breath from Toshi. The fireworks were the same as the reunion live. *Relishing the reunion moments..*
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wqGtN5bRLtM
Scars. He cannot sing the high pitch and got out of breath at the high pitch. so scarry when his screamings went out of tune..sianz...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uad_9JdYD4k&feature=related
Uncle Pata is soo calm and pro. Why is Health wrap up like bah chang? Cant see his colourful hair extensions..
Last night also catch some Luna sea and Diru live at hide memorial summit.. Diru is soo goth and dark..Kyo is err...? I think only this band i will be very scare to attend their concert..XD If attend, must stand at the last row or most corner...
X will be releasing another 8 sets of old compilation of dvds in july. Sianz,,,suddenly re-release all these stuffs...Money God entered their body... Nah,,i wont buy these...
im awaiting for the reunion live dvd and hide momorial summit dvd. Luna sea is much better to watch than X at the summit.
The dvd, my friend who copy for me dunno how to decode it into regular dvd version. Die leh,,only can ask Father host. If he dunno, then tat's it liao....only keep tat dvd but cant watch,haiz...
Perhaps when porter becomes popular here, there might be fake one starting to come out? Then i will change brand liao.
The frame up thingy is a mag page feat. kame using the white wallet. It is near the door (right side when u go in) of the wisma porter shop. That shop is nice and quite updated, except logo diff only.
I am happy that you got the reply from the Japanese school!~ Ganbatte ne!~
Yes, going for the 24th gig since it is near my house,,only 4 stations away...will go kaypoh,,hahaha. This is the band that did the closing for last year's DJ party. This band's music is good. I think the vocalist is a malay... SY, you must wear your X T-shirt on that day..lolz..

Toshi's vocal is terrible
SY, thanks for asking me to go youtube to watch the hide memorial summit. I wanted to watch Without You but it took so long to load,,so i checked out Endless Rain.
Omg,,,his vocal is terrible....Perhaps he really missed hide..think fans should sing throughout the whole concert.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ZcuhzLbfZ8&feature=related
There are some hide's clips on the wall. It is so touching. No wonder Kaori cried big time there. I think i will do the same if im there.
Finally Without You is loaded,,off to watch it...saw the clips. It is the same video clip at the X concert for this song. It is about their happier time together. Those good old days. All i could think of during that moment is, X Japan is never and no longer the same. All these happy times are only memories..*so sad* Many fans cried during the last night of the concert when they saw this clip. It's very difficult to suppress your tears.
Toshi went out of tune and out of breathe for this song too....sigh...
Hope he treats Taiwan, US and Paris fans better.
******************************************************
Ryuichi kawamura's vocal is still as smooth as silk!~~ Shinya is soo funny during the Kurenai track with X. He has this "uncle/ah pek" look. Inoran is soo boyish.

The clips are from Wowow,,the same channel of the dvd tat Father host dubbed. So good, fans who subscribe it can watch it live at home..
For the dvd, i think i have to ask Father host if he knows how to do the conversion. It is because my friend dunno how to convert it..Haiz.... Father host is the last resort..hope he or his friends knows...Finally Without You is loaded,,off to watch it...saw the clips. It is the same video clip at the X concert for this song.

24th May gig
EL just smsed about an info about a local band playing only X songs at Ngee Ann poly. It is what SY had mentioned last Sat.
Band: Slapshocked (errr, im not sure who are they. Is it the same band who performed for the closing at last year's DJ party/streetfest?)
Date: 24th May 2008 - sat
Time: 6pm
Location: Ngee Ann poly.
Anyone going? Maybe will go... scully the drummer will also faint like yoshiki during Art of life? XD This act is soo classic. Didnt pay much attention to the fainting coz i thought is was part of the show..it was really shocking when the staffs called him and he have no response. After that, they carried him backstage. It was a very shocking moment for everyone. Still, im relieved to see that he enjoyed himself on the 2nd and 3rd night. He smiled and laughed so heartily.
He is God.
Another friend said Yoshiki might have drug overdose that night..hmm
My dvd player cant play the X 28th March live dvd..sianz,,i havent watch it till now... think something is wrong with my dvd player..
Kame has a porter wallet. It is poka dot white colour,,super ex leh,,i think S$500+. just realsed i havent throughly read that Porter mag.... Think saw the Porter mag frame up with Kame's wallet at the Wisma International Porter shop..
Just now when boarding the train, saw a Japanese auntie coming out of the train,,her sling bag is Porter. @_@"
Im back to my usual self liao,,kekeke,,all is well. All good or bad things will past de...

Dear Vonnie
Dear Vonnie,
Will remember to reserve the 2 mags for u, no worries :) An issue of ZY mag in july or aug will have ur babies on cover too..(Maki reserve liao,,he is super kiasu. Now he is busy with buying the Uruha Grassroots guitar. So onz that he smsed me at 130am last nite to ask about the free 3 posters tat comes with it. He is super engrossed with the Uruha guitar!~~ XD. Think now, his had threw SID out of the window...)
Hope you hear from the Japanese school real soon!! It will be an important milestone in your life. Most important is you must not stop trying. Ganbatte ne!!~ Dont say go Japan to work in lowly job. Wait the Universe gives it to you XD. Pls have more confident in yourself.
Today read this:
When you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it.
Every obstacle rushes to get out of the way of the man who knows where is he going; and all the world seems on the side of the man who tries to rise.
So simple, in fact, that the average person overlooks them in trying to find a more difficult way.
You are right, in life, no matter what you do, most important must be happy. Remember a versed tat someone said before. Even if you are a road sweeper, you must be the best road sweeper. Everything also must put in effort. You reap what you sow.
Kat-tun's songs are very nice and their concerts (watched from dvd) are very entertaing. I only like Kame. I find Jin kinda hao lian type. Had a subway size poster of Kat-tun doing to Docomo ad that Kaori-san sent me last year. It's too big that i dunno how to take a picture.. It seems cannot squeeze into the digi cam...i dont bear to put it up naked (without protection). There's no casing of this size... haiz,,i think it's edges are turning yellow...
*****************************************************************************
Supposed to meet Is-san for dinner today but he didnt inform me the time on Sunday (which he promised). I was tired, so i didnt sms him to ask him about tonight's meet up.
Sold some stuffs at ebay..esp MYV stuffs. This guy is so big with Europeans!~~
Yesterday emailed Mother host to wish her "Happy Mother's Day." She replied last night to say it was a normal Sunday for her. She said the weather was like winter but she cleaned up the garden and wipe the windows. It was a normal day for her. Both Father and Mother hosts never stops doing household chores during weekends....
Just saw that the octopus pic on top of the nissin cup noodle has fallen just on top of Ayumi's ticket..must tahan this imperfection..
Finally done with Gaze ( i think?). Hope there is nothing coming up from next month till end of july..kekee...like tat gaze fans can take a good break!~~ I think they are being overdosed by PS company... that super italian fan has even exploded a credit card on the uruha guitar and figurine set...she still wants to order the sashins and is looking for another credit card..OMG~~~

Kway Chap
Went to si ma lu after da meet up. After visiting the Kwan Yin Temple, went to the nearby hawker centre to eat the delicious Kway chap!~~ I miss that stall's Kway Chap (there is only one such stall in that hawker centre). It was quite crowded, so had to share table with 2 Aunties (they were around 50+). They are eating the Kway Chap too. When mine arrived, i saw the san chen rou (3 layered pork?)..omg,,,i forget to ask the Auntie not to gimme this (only asked her not to give me the pig skin). So, i immediately turned to the 2 Aunties "Errr, ni men yao chi zhi ge san chen rou ma?". They looked up and one said "i dont eat meat one". Her friend said "Ok, i eat some". Then the first Auntie said "you soo skinny, must eat more fats. It is good for your knees. If not, wait you old liao, will like me,,knee ache. I got a friend who regularly eats the pig skin and san chen rou, her skin is soo elastic and smooth!". I said "can drink Anlene wat." She said "no, bluff people one,,commercial wat. i dont like".
The 2nd Auntie said "ya lor, must eat such meats when you are young. Eat lah, it is not very fat wat'. Aiyoh, i boh bian but to eat one in front of them (1st time i ate in decades!!).. The 2 Aunties left after 10mins. The 1st Auntie even gave me a wet tissue (left 1 pc inside) before she left.
So chatty de 2 Aunties...so ladies, pls take pig skin and san chen rou regularly.

The LS customer missed me twice today. In the end, i had to lug back those 2 books again. He dont have a handphone. Today i was 10mins late and since he dun have a hp, i wait for him to call me. He didnt!~ He went home and called me at 3pm. I was at Bugis. So, i said to meet him at Bugis Mc Donalds at 4pm. I went there at 4pm and realised there are 2 Mc Donalds at Bugis. One is inside the BHG and one at Bugis village. I called his home (he lived near Bugis) at 430pm but his Mother said he isnt home yet. She even asked me why i didnt tell him to contact me if he cant find me. I thought isnt it common sense?? I waited for him to call but still, he didnt call.. Called his house at 450pm and he still not home yet. So, bo bian,,go home liao....
He called at 5pm and i asked him y he didnt call. He said he couldnt find a public phone.... So, we agreed to meet at Bugis mrt at 11am tml. Initially he wanted to meet me to Potong Pasir mrt. I Huh sooo loud coz it was such an inconvenient place for me. He said "you can change train wat. Potong Pasir mrt lesser ppl, so i can find you easily." I said no, i can only go up to Bugis mrt. He asked wat im wearing tomorrow. So,i quickly visualised my wardrobe and informed him wat i'll be wearing.. It was such a difficult task to sell things to him. On the train home, just had the urge to buy him a hp!!~ It must have been a tiring day for him...he still persists for his LS photo books. (Salute Him!)
SY, thank you very much for the pleasant surprise today. I was quite shocked to see you!~~ Im eating your chocolate (chocolate with catus powder) now..Oiiishi!~ Did you guitar lesson went well today? Your Sensei seems cool.

The LS customer missed me twice today. In the end, i had to lug back those 2 books again. He dont have a handphone. Today i was 10mins late and since he dun have a hp, i wait for him to call me. He didnt!~ He went home and called me at 3pm. I was at Bugis. So, i said to meet him at Bugis Mc Donalds at 4pm. I went there at 4pm and realised there are 2 Mc Donalds at Bugis. One is inside the BHG and one at Bugis village. I called his home (he lived near Bugis) at 430pm but his Mother said he isnt home yet. She even asked me why i didnt tell him to contact me if he cant find me. I thought isnt it common sense?? I waited for him to call but still, he didnt call.. Called his house at 450pm and he still not home yet. So, bo bian,,go home liao....

errors!~~
Last night, just realised ive made a stupid error. My flickr account,,from page 42-56, ive mistakenly set it to private,means only i can see. Stupid rite? I discovered the red minus sign last night and wondered wat is tat. Upon discovery, i realised this stupid mistake...i will have to individually set each photo to enable Friends and Family,,Zzzzzzzz zzzzzzz
Another mistake is, i sent 2 gaze pamphlets to a Norway customer when she only ordered the Grand finale pamphlet. I sent it to her before i came back to Spore. I missed out sending her the black tee and black bandana and instead, send the PWTB04 pamphlet. She informed me this only on Wed. So, on Thu, i sent her the tee and bandana. Then, i realised my shipping paper wrote "2 books", meaning 2 pamphlets. So, i replied her email and asked if she had received 2 pamphlets. She said "yes and i think i only ordered one". She didnt confess this when she emailed saying she didnt receive the Tee and bandana. I replied asking her if she opened the pamphlet, if yes, we can sell it to her at S$70. If she dont want it, we have another 2 customers waiting for it. All she need to do and help us ship it to the customer in Germany and we will pay her for the shiping. SHE MIA till now...wat a dishonest customer...It was my mistake in the first place so i have to pay the price.... i need to drill into myself that not everyone is honest.
Once an ex-colleague told me something interesting. He said "When one is honest and kind, one will never know how dishonest and unkind other people might be". It is so true....
Christine, hope you had enquired everything you need about the job yesterday :)
This morning around 10am, the "fly kite" Luna sea boy called. He said he can collect his 2 LS books today and also enquire about some other LS books.I told him to send email coz i dunno wat he wants... Hope he turns up today.
This blogger site have occassional problems,,like now, i cannot see any of my sites....it says blogger error and something virus etc...only my laptop got this problem...btw, in Japan, this blogger site is in Japanese,,have to change language. For changing of Paypal account email there, they need you to verify your credit card number. In Spore, we dont need this verification.
SY, i like hearthrob type of idols..hahaha...(im a closet fangirl of Kimura. i was so thrilled when i saw his CM and Gatsby posters.)

Kimu Taku
Finally fixed up my Kimu taku display last nite. He dont like ppl calling him this nick but i find it more "smooth" to call him this,,lolz... Finally bought the A1 size casing from Popular yday. The chicken card is from Far east..it has nostalgic value coz i used to eat this snack when i was young.
The natural scenaries were from newsletters that ive collected during my trip. They are just nice to fit the balance space. The "Sakura" postcard was bought from Takayama (where i bought the "Dream" postcard for Vonnie) and it serves as a reminder that i was there during the Sakura season. This postcard is 2000 series.
Spotted their website on the plastic cover of the postcard. They have jigsaw puzzles too. Saw it at Sunshine city.
http://www.kei-saku.com/
After putting up the display,ive discovered the sequence of the concert tickets has been mixed up. Ayumi and Gaze shld change place...
The Octopus has fell down and is covering the Nissin cup noodle. Didnt paste the Octopus (it was from a snack bought from Osaka) on the newspaper coz didnt want to spoil the nice Kimu taku ad. I must learn to live with imperfectness.
Found this but havent find a place to hang it..Christine, when you go to the workplace on Friday, pls prepare all the questions you need to ask. Think you are too overjoyed about getting the job and forget to ask about the pay.
Welcome back Xuan. Hope you are having a good rest now. Yday i went to the post office and saw this Caucasion lady, she was holding a big bag of chocolates from Hokkaido along with its carrier!! It was wat ur sis wanted! She told the postal staff she wants to send these snacks to Canada. Im on the verge of asking her to sell some to me!~ hahahaa.
Just this week alone, 2 local customers wants to exchange items after that have collected. Reason is, they have placed the wrong order. Wonder how come will place wrong order in the first place? Unfortunately, we dont do exchange...So far, only local customers are such muddleheads....They r super cmi siar.
Yesterday smsed a customer to pick up her 2 back issues of Shoxx mags. I did told her i will be away for April and she dont mind to pick up her mags anytime when im back. Upon replying my sms, she asked "Where did u go in April?". I think i didnt tell her..only tell her i'll be away. So, told her i went to japan. She replied "Wah, one month there? You know Japanese? I also longed to go there.". I replied "it is a once in a lifetime trip, i saved very hard for it". She said "dont say like that lah, when your business prospers, you can go there again.". It was really such a kind thoughts of her. It reminds me of something Xuan said before "there are still plenty of customers waiting to buy from you". I am very thankful for many wonderful Angels in my life.
Also smsed LP yday coz she wants to buy the bone sandals. She found many ppl selling it at Yahoo taiwan auction. Yday smsed her to inform that im not buying, so she had to inquire the shipping rates from whichever sellers she wants to order. If i didnt sms her, she would still wait for me to process her sandal orders for her. She only told me over the phone last week that she want white colour with round header. I just "orh orh orh" and she said "u want me to email u the url?". I also "orh". So, she sent me. It didnt occur to me that she is waiting for me to process it for her until yday. I suddenly remembered. So, had smsed her to ask her to order it herself and i will help her pay by Paypal. During our conversation last week, she said "that site all is in NT (taiwan $) so, i dunno how much.". "it is divide by 20 for Taiwan $" i replied. She didnt know there is such thing as currency converter.... Hope she can successfully finish this transaction by herself.. im awaiting her to inform me the total to pay to seller. Anyone wants to order the Bone sandals? If yes, pls lemme noe (Singapore only).
The hide psycho girl replied my sms yday. I told her i dont mind to keep the X pamphlet for her and she said "ok, thanks. Can you pls share with me ur experience in Japan when we meet up next time?". Sure i said. :) Hope she dont worry so much and can lead a normal life.
The Mother said she hope i dun give her dateline for her payment. She dont mind i charge her more for No dateline and hope i can consider this. She said even if it is only a few hundred dollars, it is very difficult for her to raise the $. Zzzzzzz zzzzzzzz Really dunno wat to say or do...

cool weather
Finally, the weather is good since yesterday. This morning was a breezy day and my migraines went away liao!~
Are you back now Xuan?? Glad X is also popular in Korea. Btw, all items were sold out again on the 2nd day of the hide's memorial summit. Kaori only managed to buy x 2 yellow tee and x 1 black tee.
Christine, Congratulations on your new part-time job!~ We have Forever 21 here too!!~~ When will you start on your new job? Hope you are not stressed out coz school is already kinda busy.
Last night panicked about the uruha's hellion guitar order. If order from Craft house (which comes with 3 posters. Uruha, Aoi and Reita with their ESP guitars), the dateline was last night 00:00 but this Italian customer havent replied if she wants to order from here or a cheaper site (no freebies). She already paid the Craft house price in the morning coz she thought it comes with an autographed Gazette poster. But it is not!~ This site is S$219 more expensive but comes with 3 posters). So replied her that there is no autographed poster but 3 posters only.
It's 8pm and i cannot wait for her reply anymore..so i called her.~ She picked up the phone after 2nd try. I introduced myself and asked her slowly in English (Coz she is an Italian) if she wants the 3 posters or no posters for her guitar. She kinda had a hard time to reply. Finally she said "i am reading ur email now." So, i told her to reply within 30mins after she considers.
She replied immediately after i put down the phone. She go for the 3 posters and apologised for the phone call coz she said she dont understand what im saying over the phone.. It is ok, finally she replied and it was on time to order before the dateline.. Phew!!~~
The Mother MIA after i told her will submit the documents if she dont pay by end of June and her daughter will be picked up by the Police. Prior to this, she asked "what will happen if i dont pay?". Omg..i suspect she has no intention to pay and is just dragging... ZZzzzzzzz zzzzzzzz

Dear Xuan ^^
Dear Xuan,
Didnt know Korea has no access to Youtube,,,or perhaps it is the server's issue at the hotel? I think they shld have access to Youtube. Not sure hw the hide's memorial 08 went yesterday. I am more eager for today's show,,lolz.
Is your tongue better now? pls be more relax on your Korea trip. Think you might be worrying too much. Just go with the flow and enjoy the trip. Dont have so many things on your mind coz you are supposed to be on a holiday. Do enjoy it's nice weather!~~
It is definitely worth trying to get into the Exchange programme as it is like a Once in a lifetime chance. You can practise your Japanese when you are there and the cost is quite reasonable too. Err, dont study during ur Korea trip lah,,it is a relaxing trip. I wish you all the best for the Exchange programme. Best of all, it is summer!~ Got Summer Sale, summer tours and great weather!!~
Wah, u really follow up on my rants despite u r on holiday. Now i dont do that "S$80 Yoshiki doll " girl's biz. She is really irritating and think i Must serve her like a queen whenever i receives her order. She behaves like some sort of spoilt brat who thinks her $$ is King (oh well, only S$80 for yoshiki's doll? Is it only worth this amount? Come on..). I think perhaps 2 years also cannot find that doll. If found, think will sell to her meh? I will keep it for myself!!
Since you like Yoshiki very much, investing in his line of accessories is fair enough as a fan. It is the same like Gaze fans buying the Gem Cery accessories. Many Japanese fans wore them to Gaze concerts. Saw a few fans wearing the Ruki's necklace and earring set. It was really stunning!~They are the real Richie Rich. I wonder where will that spoilt brat stand among these fans~
Talking about Spore customers, remembered what K said when i told him locals cannot wait for the tour goods and neither do they want to pay for the postage despite they are urgent for it. His immediate reply was "tour goods urgent for wat?!". His reply stumbles me...ya hor,,wat is there to urgent about?! Not everyone is like him, you, vonnie, Grace, WQ, Maki and a few others.. Sporeans ,,tsk tsk tsk,,,Zzzzzzz zzzzzzzzzzzzz
Btw, the 'psychotic" hide girl replied my sms late last nite saying she is jobless now, so she cant buy the X pamphlet and apologise for it. I replied her saying it is ok, i understand her situation. I sent her the sms on last Wed and she said she receives it yday. Our telecom lines got something wrong coz my sms took 3days to arrive her. I think she retreat to her cave again. She can be really psychotic and paranoid at times...
For the hide's goods, Kaori-san went! Emailed her yday morning to ask if any of her friends are going (Coz she said she cant go initially). She replied saying she is at the venue liao!~ So, i replied asking her to buy the t-shirts x 1 each. She replied this morning saying all items are sold out and she only managed to buy 1 black tee. I've asked her to buy the pink tee, yellow tee and plushies if it is available today. I think hide fans super chiong for the goods.... this batch is really very nice.. hope she is in luck today.
The Mother emailed again yday asking if i can bill to her credit card. Pls lor,,if she dont pay again, Paypal will dock S$25 from me and deduct watever money i have in the Paypal account. So, i reinterate that it must be paid by Western Union. She said ok, she will pay before end of June. I said if she failed to pay by then, i will send the documents to USA on 1st July...she replied immediately saying she will keep her promise. Actually thought to ask her to pay by installments but then, like that she will incure alot of Western Union charges...so, had allowed her to pay the lump sum in June..
Today shall be my Do Nothing Day!~ This morning i woke up with migraine again...

Unhelpful Japanese and Ugly Singaporean!
This is soo true..
http://www.japantoday.com/category/commentary/view/a-punching-bag-on-the-odakyu-line
I witness 2 occasions of drunkards. One seemly being beaten up by someone and was lying on the floor with blood on his face. It was outside a busy train station and no one helped him. A while later, 2 policemen came.
Another occasion was with my friend Ohkita-san on the platform waiting for train. There was a loud noise from behind where the drunkard fell from his chair and collapse on the floor. The Japanese just turned their heads behind and resumed looking at the front, as if nothing has happened. I panicked and asked Ohkita-san 'hey, can u pls give him a helping hand?". He said "no, we dont help drunkards". Huh?~!!~ They are really like that! A while later, the drunkard woke up and went back to the seat. It is so hard to imagine the Japanese can be quite cold at times.
Sui sui sui.... *drools*

Today is the first live,,tml even better, got luna sea and diru. Hope tonite Toshi had a good rest and memorise all the lyrics well!!~ hide, pls bless him.
Just now S smsed asking me if i got lobang to buy X tickets in USA or Paris. I said no. I hope they really do their best for their World Tour. Imagine fly all the way there and if the performance is lousy,,it will really be a big waste of time on the flight...unless u r on the way to holiday in the US or Paris. Maybe Asians can go to X Taiwan tour to "test water", at least it is nearer and cheaper. (vonnie, u can consider,,lolz)
Super pissed today coz a customer called at 12.33pm and said "hey, sorry i cant make it for today;s meet up."
Me: huh? how come you only inform me now?? Do you know your 2 luna sea books (the Unconventional tour and Shoxx Index) are soo heavy and im going out today after the meet up? You are not coming means i have to carrying these 2 heavy books with me whole day!"
He: Err, sorry but i really cant make it today. Can u pls reserve the 2 books for me? I will inform u my available date again".
Me: (pissed toned) Ok.
He called last week to ask a silly question of "do you do exchange? I would like to exchange my cds with ur 2 Luna sea books. I said no, we dont do exchange, only selling. If you want to exchange, pls go to sgcafe.net. So strange..1st time got ppl ask such questions..
I lugged those 2 books to Dhoby Gaut and Somerset after the meet up. *_*"

Singapore Street Festival 2008
Hope this year's Street Festival is better than last year's. I only remembered last year, where a band performed X's songs..tats the only enjoyable part.
http://www.singaporestreetfestival.com/highlights-djparty.html
K said the jrock matsuri was a flop...
Didnt take part in any local events since last dec and wont be doing it in the future either.
Been having migraines on and off lately. The weather is really super hot man!!~
Today suddenly remembered tat i dreamt of fire a few days after X concerts. It was a wooden house full of bright lamps/candles but from the outside, it seems like it was on fire. But when i went it, the lamps/candles were calm. So, today went to search the dream dictionary.
http://dreammoods.com/cgibin/searchcsv.pl?method=exact&header=dreamsymbol&search=fire
Think either im too angry with Toshi or there's really something transforming in my life... i am eager to find out.
Christine, hope you are feeling much better today. The weekend is around the corner. Hope you have a good upcoming weekend. Im happy that you got the ticket!!~

whopping prices of chesse K***t brand
Went to ntuc this evening and bought a loaf of white bread (just crave for it coz seems so long i havent ate soft white bread.) Then, tot of cheese, so went to the cheese section. OMG..that brand K**ft brand's double pack cost a whopping S$9!!~ It's single pack cost S$5. I got a shocked when i saw its price. The most expensive double pack ive bought before was S$6.50. It was a 41.5% increase in price. The Ntuc brand's single pack is only S$2.55. I compared it's nutritious value and the Ntuc one has more calcium and lesser salt (Sodium). So, bought the Ntuc brand, whichi is cheaper and more nutritious value. So scary, the rate of this item's price increase... Or does it means paying more for the Brand?
Read somewhere that some juices, rice and detergents are made from same factory but are labelled in different brands. Thus, the contents are the same no matter which brand you buy. Sony and Aiwa is from the same company. They have same/similar products. Think Aiwa is an obselete brand now. We have to be smarter consumers.
Morning went for a few meet ups and met SH for lunch. After that, met K to pass him his stuffs. His band will be performing on the Singapore street fest on 5.25. They will play Tokyo Jihen's songs. His jamming session is 5pm so we walked around at orchard. He didnt know that Porter shop opp Youth park, so i bring him there. He brought me to the ipod shop at cineleisure and the International Porter shop at Wisma. Vonnie, now i know wat u mean by International Porter. They have the same style as Porter except the logo is diff. Got price diff mah? I didnt see any of the price of International Porter.. K want to buy a computer bag for his laptop and is undecided which brand to buy. He saw a Calvin Klein Jeans tote bag at the ipod shop but it cost a whopping S$599. CK is like a cheapo brand to me. Told him i wun pay so much for this brand.
My Porter wallet's button is soo tight. I think i will spoil the button area soon,,,i dont dare to put too many cards coz it will make the button even tighter..haiz,,dunno wat to do with the button area. It seems so fragile...
Hey Christine, you are still awake at 3am/4am? Gosh, arent you tired at classes in the day time coz you slept soo late? Kinda worried about your health.. dont bother to reply my blog,,you had better turn in early!!~~
So long didnt go to the library and ive lost track of books...must go amazon to update on the new releases, else my brain will go senile.
Ive read a book (forget which title), it has a meaningful saying. It says, Our Brain is like a CPU. If there is nothing new going in, it will have nothing new coming out. It seems soo comon sense but how many ppl ever realised it? There's alot of books ive read which have similar notions but rarely ppl noticed it despite it is such a common sense. Another similar notion says "If you dont take care of your health/finance when you are young, your health/finance will not take care of you when you are old. Do you want to spend your last quarter of your life going in and out of the hospital, spending away all your hard earn $ during your youth time as medical bills instead of going on holidays? It stressed the importance of Health. What it says really makes me think and absorb it well. The 3 white "poisons" to our health. Sugar, Salt and Flour. I take them moderately.
Will always make it a point to learn something new whenever i can, in watever area... I dont want to be like my frens. They rarely touch a book after they graduate. They spend their days in routine... i fear such lifestyle... I must remember that my life is a colourful one (i add bright colours in it), not a dull one.
"The biggest tragic in life is not hatred, it is indifference". Reminds me of something Mother Theresa said before. It is something like "the worst feeling in the world is to feel unloved". She will hold the hands of they dying and tell them she loves them. In life, nothing is more important of being able to make a difference, no matter how small it is. Even if one day VS is closed, i'm happy that it had made a difference in some people's life. Must leave the world a better place than you first found it.
