Star strucked (in dreams)

One mei mei's blog. The header's pic is soo relax. "Live on the move With no destination". Wonder how many ppl on this earth feels this way? I feel this way too...

Was "star strucked" on Monday nite. It was in my dream. Dreamt that i went to A9 (wonder why it is A9??)'s concert with JY (she is a super hugh A9 fan who went for a 1mth A9 concert tour in Jan 08). Beside JY's seat came Yoshiki and his 2 partners!!~ I was star strucked when i saw Yoshiki approaching the seats and he sat in between his 2 partners!~ Both the partners were ladies (not very pretty leh) and JY talked to one of them who sat beside her. She told her "we are Yoshiki's biz partners". I was surprise lor,,coz isnt Yoshiki's Extasy Record funded by his mum???

Hmm,,,anyway,,i seize the opportunity to ask for his autograph (ma tu liao!) !~~ Nothing for him to signed on except on the A9 tour pamphlet (??). The page after the cover was blank..so he signed there with an All Cap YOSHIKI, den he signed. I was in extasy man,,and a darn happy fan!!~ JY didnt do anything,,i think she she dun care,,lolz.... Den, Yoshiki asked for my email add,,so i gave him. Dunno why, i didnt take a picture with him leh.and why is he attending A9's concert?!~

Surprisingly,,i really received his email!!~ He said thank you for the support and say he can give me 10% discount if i want to buy any X japan or related stuffs. I was like 'huh?? like tat also can???" I just tot of buying the Dahlia album..coz mine was full of scratches..lolz..

Puff,,the dream ended,,i dont remember replying him also,,,,

Star strucked dreams are Happy Dreams!!!~ It has been such a donkey years since i dreamt about stars. Long time ago, i dreamt abt Andy Lau,,he was a newspaper seller opp my house..in a shopping center,,,hahaha.

Nice to hear from you Vonnie,,forget to tell you..collection on 15th is ok coz the photos sets cant make it for this week's shipment. It was ordered from the online site coz manual print at 7-11 has very poor quality...so,,the wait is abit longer..no news of it yet..haiz... Btw, this Sat at bugis junction got some petition thing going with regards to the transport fees for Poly students. Perhaps you want to go check it out. The details are at theonlinecitizen website.

Today a mei mei said Uruha's R and R's long hair is extension. Vonnie, ni bu kui shi ge Gaze fans!!~ *Salute* Btw, PSC 2005 dvd will be having a re-release on 12/24,,wat a romantic timing...ideal as Xmas gift.

Dear Caiko, how have you been? (And also Devan and Christine). Thank you for your comments. Congratulations on your new President, Mr Obama today. We are hopeful he will bring success and change to the USA and also the world.

Read from Christine's blog that she is selling stuffs to raise her school fees. It must be a stressful time for her..

I find this 2008 Election is a positive indication of Change. It is like when the Berlin wall came down in 1989, the world becomes flat (digital era). I hope in the next 2011 Singapore's election, we will see some positive changes too. :)

Someone said the above from the site under "comments'.
http://theonlinecitizen.com/2008/10/mm-lee-on-assortative-mating/#comments

It is no secret that our MM Lee encourages graduates to marry only graduates so they have smart kids. It is something he strongly believes.

However, i dont believe. My parents are not graduates but my sister is. My friend's parents are not graduates but his brother and sister is. So, to me, MM Lee's view is quite narrow.

Been following the minibond saga (tankinlian.blogspot) and theonlinecitizen sites lately. One will find our Government is not 1st class when handling crisses despite having 1st class salary. Their salary is 8x above the international benmark but it it grossly overpaid for their measly leadership. Read more about theonlinecitizen site and you will know what i mean.

Being a Singaporean is like a mute. We are always afraid to say something against the Government. Sigh,,,i must plan to migrate liao...

Not going to japan

The Japanese Yen ballooned big time lately!~ Today it rises again to SGD$1 - Yen148..soo expensive. Practically freeze all my orders from japan. Europeans and Australians are the worst hit coz their currencies are very weak.

Checked air ticket to Tokyo yday. The cheapest is Thai aiways, ticket is about SGD$300 but the other charges is SGD$900+!~ Siao rite????

Haiz,,dont think can go japan at year end coz today's news said Singapore is official in Recession..Zzzzz During such turbulant times, cash is king.

Last nite J wants to order an expensive japanese earphone for his brother..advised him not to buy coz now, nothing is more important than having $$ in ur pocket. Other stuffs are not important..

Dont know how long will this Recession last...

How Much is USD700 billion

Extract from today's Yahoo News. A mind boggling amount. Nonetheless, i believe the bailout will be passed.

Dont pass--> Very painful now (banks got no $ to lend so, economy is at a standstill. Affects the whole world)

Pass --> Slow pain down the road coz need time to put everything back to the right place (like paying installments for the bank's errors).

******************************************************************************
Based on the U.S. Census Bureau's estimate of the current population of about 305 million people, each person would have to pay $2,300 to fund the $700,000,000,000. If each American (including children) paid a dollar a day, it would take more than six years to pay the money in full.

One might argue, however, that this $700 billion would be a modest splash in the bucket of national debt, which already stands at well over $9 trillion (which means you already owe $31,642 each).

Even the New York Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez would lose sleep over all those zeroes. Currently the top paid major league baseball player, Rodriguez takes home $28 million a year, meaning it would take 25,000 A-Rod salaries to carry the $700 billion.

Nobody is rich enough to pay back this $700 billion by himself. In fact, the Forbes 400 richest list recently came out. It would take most of what these 400 people collectively have - a combined net worth of $1.57 trillion - to dig out of this mess.

Went to jb with yy today. She commented about the US financial meltdown in one short sentence.

"The US government shld ask our MM Lee how to solve".

It was such a profound statement.
