Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong said, "(Mr Low) is perfectly entitled to want to win a GRC. "(But) think carefully because it affects your property value, it affects your neighbourhood, if affects your country, it affects your future." And I am in total agreement with him, as it reflects not just a plausible future, but what is happening now. For the last 5 years, PAP was in almost absolute

Rules of investment

I was recently inspired on how investment can be done and how some scholars showed the way, let me just share them with you1). Screw legalityIt only needs to seems legal, doesn't matter if it may turn out otherwise, if someone promise you a state-own enterprise at ridiculous price, just take it cause some law intern told you so.2). Monopoly is good, cartel better.It really doesn't matter if you

Something very touching其實很多女孩子都不知道，男孩子在從他們發火後自己轉過身卻在不斷自責。其實很多女孩子都不知道，男孩子從來不會真正去生她們的氣，因為他是真的喜歡妳在乎妳。其實很多女孩子都不知道，男孩子只會對自己喜歡的女生百般呵護，也只會對自己喜歡的人耍性子。妳要知道，假若他不喜歡妳，他根本不會來在乎妳關心妳，怕妳做錯事情。妳要知道，假若他不喜歡妳，他根本不會對妳發火不會要妳撒嬌要妳哄他，在別人面前他都是紳士。妳要知道，假若他不喜歡妳，妳根本就沒有本事讓他自責，讓他即使生氣也不會超過１天。而這一切都只是因為他喜歡妳，而這一切都因為妳還不夠在意他不夠懂他。於是，你們時常爭吵，妳認為他脾氣不好，妳認為他不夠遷就妳。於是，你們總是冷戰，妳以為他不喜歡妳，妳以為他不在乎妳。於是，你們總是莫名其妙的彼此錯過，也許擦身而過，本身就是一種悲傷著的無奈與幸福。要知道，

男人不是天生就壞的(轉)

2006-11-02T15:15:00.000+08:00

看到这一篇，觉得它也言之有物。与所有好男人，坏男人和那些感叹找不到好男人的女人分享作者： yang1234567859(拿鐵) 十歲以前，他什麼都不懂，就不說了...十三、四歲的時候，開始對女孩有好感，但是那時候他離女孩遠遠的，並且以討厭女孩自居，生怕被同伴嘲笑十五歲的時候，聽到大人們說某某男人好花，把女朋友甩了，女孩自殺了。他覺得這人真狠毒，自己將來一定要做個癡情的男人，一定要一生只愛一個人。十六歲的時候，他喜歡上了一個女孩，但是他不敢和她說。仍然和往常一樣，臟兮兮的在灰土飛揚的操場上踢球。只在女孩走出校門的時候，躲在二層的窗戶上看她的背影，他覺得她一定是個天使。十七歲的時候，有個女孩喜歡上了他，但是他離她很遠，心裏面只有自己那個女孩，他覺得看別的女孩都是對她的不忠。十八歲的時候，看了一個MTV，感動得想哭；他想，如果自己的女孩失去了雙眼，

Room With a view

And nothing much else…This entry is done in the hotel which we will stay for the night.When talk about ocean view, they were not kidding. In fact, I suspected that every single room in this hotel will probably offer a certain degree of sea view which I suspect, every other hotel will or at least try to offer. Seeing Meridien Hotel on my way just proves that, I have step into the land of

Getting there

2006-09-29T20:43:00.000+08:00

It took ages of planning and just when we thought that its months away, we are now on our way to Malta to catch our cruise.As things panned out, we are now on the forth leg of our second plane with 2 transfer each. Loads of fun but we are now close to freaking out and is just less than a hair’s breath to getting into our little air rage mode. And seriously, we are wondering if the whole thing was

OT is better than Sex

2006-09-22T01:55:00.000+08:00

Just came up with 10 reasons why OT is better than sex1). It is never finished2). You get shafted royally and sometimes, you dun get paid.3). You will be too shagged to think about sex4). Your spouse will be too pissed to think about sex5). You dun have to fake a headache6). You dun have to fake an orgasm during OT7). There isn't a right mood for OT8). You dun have to come for OT, just stay9).

男人不坏，女人不爱

2006-09-08T00:03:00.000+08:00

有的时候，一些至理，总是会藏在一些不为人知，甚或风马牛不相及的地方。好比以下这篇，为男人不坏，女人不爱这句明言作出其精辟的论点。而这篇竟是从一篇原载在网上的一篇武侠小说，在此与大家分享。萧瑟《霸王神枪》第八十章　情之所锺的一段为什么“男人不坏，女人不爱”这句话能够成立？它的基础便是立在女子的好奇和争胜的两种心态上。　　一般稍有姿色的女子，总认为自己魅力非凡，胜过别的女子，如果让她结识一个花名在外的浪子，起先她会因为好奇而接近这个男子，因为她想要弄清楚他究竟有何魅力，竟能不断的玩弄女性？　　当这个女子接近这种花间浪子时，眼看他身边聚集三、四个，甚至七、八个女子，她就会生出争强斗胜之心，施出浑身解数想要将他攫获，让他拜倒在自己的石榴裙下。　　她总认为自己不会像别的女子一样，被这个花间浪子给玩弄之后抛弃，总以为自己的魅力惊人，一定可以让这个男子“改头换面”，把全部的身心都奉献给自己。

I have wondered if we are now officially the whine hub of Asia if not the world. Our World class Main Stream Media is always quick to tell us ingrates how we should be gratefull and grovel at our feet with all the goods our government does for us.Its not all serious worships and grovelling, there are times whereby people use the MS and/or online forum to air their grouses and unhappiness towards

Here I am, on my way to Sim Lim Square, and I just can’t help but to reflect on what brings about this journey and the events leading up to it. It all boils down to one of those things that had been there throughout my formative years, Trade-shows, and to be more specific, Comex.Ever since I was first shown a home built Apple II by my uncle, it wooden housing, cassette tape drive and all, I have

Saw it from HWZYou Are 70% Boyish and 30% GirlishYou are pretty evenly split down the middle - a total eunuch.Okay, kidding about the eunuch part. But you do get along with both sexes.You reject traditional gender roles. However, you don't actively fight them.You're just you. You don't try to be what people expect you to be.How Boyish or Girlish Are You?

Back and needing something to smashDid a quick check and realized that it has been slightly more than a month from my last post. It seems like I am not yet forgotten.It was not a particular busy month for me but it was a month that sees my level of tolerance and temper sliding southwards and feeling that anger rising up with greater ease at each passing day.I was under the belief that people

I looked at the last Friday’s edition of Today with a bit of longing, regret and spite. I know that the column which I find solace and a good laugh is no more. As a sign of support and solidarity, I will now fly the ribbon high on this blog to show that yes, I support Mr. Brown and I am not afraid to show it. And I also just received confirmed news that his good buddy and fellow blogger, Mr.

It is probably one of those nights again where sandman failed to drop by to blow some dust on me to send me into lala land. No, I do not fault him for that as I am probably the one at fault.It probably started off with the hours I kept while in Europe. With the day long, night short and the long schedule, I spent no more than 4 hours a day asleep while I was there. The meetings and drinkings did

Seems like it is tough being James Gomez. First off, he did not hand in a form on National TV. Neither did his apologies managed to soothe the angry mo out there baying for his blood. Being called a liar by our founding father and losing the election at 12-percentage point (some call it landslide in some countries). And now, it seems like he might just very well lose his job and that either a

And the vote is cast

And the vote is castWith the last count of the vote done and all the result announced, it seems like the distribution of power did not change with the passing of the election. However, an obvious trend that did not go unnoticed was the increase in the percentage of votes garnered by the oppositions had gone up noticeably. While the Prime Minister walked away to what he claims to be a strong

Despite being only a mere change of the lunar calendar, heaps of activities took place that depleted me of any energy and will to blog for the two short weeks past. That and a need to ponder on the topic to blog on was also part of the hindrance that presence itself.

While the furor over Mr. Tan’s return has finally boiled over and that the law of the land has passed its first reading, there seems to still be background noise of those who decided that National Service is beneath them. One of them, which I read with utter distaste, was a letter by a little runt who decided that his motherland is nothing more than a nuisance.The letters is as follows:Jan 18,

It does seem like the prodigal son is having a hard time coming back. Don't get me wrong; I have nothing against him personally. I feel that anyone that is willing to forsake his obligation to his country and left his parent behind for so many years in his pursuit of music and achieving greatness ought to be honored for their dedication. While the judge honored Nguyen’s love for his father with a

债 (Debt)

2005-11-21T11:30:00.000+08:00

生命中，无法抗拒，无力承受的情一个人一生中，总难免会承受一些人情。人情债，最难还；但是它会叫你不能也不得不还。与其负上这一个人情的负债，有时情愿不领这个情，不负这个债。但是身命中总有一些你不得不领的情和不得不负的人情债。无法抗拒的债其实讲白了，根本就是一种感情勒索。而勒索这门勾当就是要让你知道这是一个无法全身而退的一个局但是你还是不得不入局。布局的人，有时令人觉得心机很重却令人无法咬牙切齿的去恨。很无耐的是，布局的人都是生命中，一些你认为重要的人。能够让你在毫无条件下，最义无反顾的付出。虽然这些都是一些小动作，但有的时候这些小动作可能会叫人心烦进令人有一种被人玩弄于股掌中的感觉。我相信，任何人都不喜欢那种被当成是扯线木偶的感觉。但是，如果把线看作是一种牵缚，一种感情与关系的联结，将这条线剪断可能令人得到了自由，也对双方造成伤害。引起这诸般沉思的，只是一碗面。一份星期六早上的早餐。
