Stock Market

Something must have got into me.

It has been at least 7 years since I last bought shares.

On Monday, I called the broker can bought 2 Lots SIA Shares. That totalled to almost 35K.

I did not sell the 2 lots on that day as I was greedy I was hoping it will rise further. No, it did not.

I told Lem on Monday night that I bought shares and he sounded very worried for me as he dun want me to lose money. He asked me to sell it as soon as possible since I have no physical cash to hold the shares. Playing contra is a very dangerous way in Shares trading.

The next morning, I sold the shares at $17.60 per unit. That was $0.20 more than what I bought. I did not lose any money in this case.

I think I will only buy when the market crashes in end September.

May Buddha help me.

Loft Bed

After one round of walking at Ikea Showroom Tampines, I have come to a conclusion that a loft bed is the best solution if I want to maximise my already very small 1 bedroom studio.

If I can customise a queen size loft bed, I can put one 2 seater sofa underneath the loft to watch my LCD or surf internet. That will save a lot of space. My living room can be more spacious by putting one dining table which can act as conference table and one OSIM massage chair, which until to this date, I still love to have one.

A loft bed will also provide more privacy to my lifestyle as the bathroom is in the bedroom and friends or clients when they wish to use the bathroom, they can skip viewing my bed when they step into the room.

My perfect measurement will be 6 feet x 5 feet.

I wonder how much a customised loft bed will cost? maybe $2000?

Let me check that out when time comes nearer.

Ikea Tampines

Bored today so I came to Ikea Tampines to chill myself.

Drinking Ice Coffee at their cafe is a luxury but since it is complimentary from Ikea,I have no qualms in accepting that offer.

While drinking my nice coffee, I blog at the same time.

The chicken wings are good but I am not having any now. I still have not digested the Laksa Yong Tau Foo which I had for lunch at Tampines.

I noticed my digestion has not been good lately. Having stomach cramps on and off. I wonder is the feeling the same as women on periods, hehe...

Giant, Courts and Ikea are the 3 main buildings in this industry park. The shuttle bus came every 30 minutes from Tampines MRT. I have not visited Giant, maybe will consider to drop by later. I have seen Courts and it is really big but not as big as Ikea.

Lemmie has not been here yet. One day, I will bring him here for chicken wings.

Oops, while drinking my coffee, 2 drops of Coffee dripped onto my white polo shirt.

This is me. Very careless...

Sad...

Finding Rental Accomodation

After selling my Melville, I am now left with no accomodation. My Thomson V will only be ready in year 2010.

Meanwhile I have to rent a whole unit to stay.

I am still searching for the right place to stay.

Rental for a 3 Room flat is askin $1500 a month. I wonder if the market is crashing? If it is, I might be able to pick up good bargains when it crashed.

A few months ago, a 3 Room flat only cost $900 a month for rental but now it has shot up dramatically.

I have until 25th September to find suitable accomodation. I hope to find a place by 16th September so that I have more time to do the shifting.

May Buddha help me!

Tampines National Library

This is my second visit to Tampines National Library. I hate to come to Tampines as Lian Huat is staying at this area. He really broke my heart and I hate to se this place which brings me so much sad memory.

The Library is small but sufficient and comfortable for the residence here.

I noticed there are laptop stations where user can charge their laptop and use the station privatly. Too bad, all stations have been booked and I have to use the normal study table to do this blogging.

Many students tend to study here. I wonder is this a better place than their home? For me at this moment, this is a better place than my home. My room is full of boxes and is very messy. If I were a student, I will not choose to study at my current room.

The adults tend to read the newspapers here.

I, too enjoy reading the newspaper here as it is FREE!

Selling Thomson V Two

I told Lemmie yesterday that I have sold Thomson V Two at S$400K.

He was very angry and he said he will leave me.

I was very sad. I dun know what to do. I dun like Thomson V Two. I wanted to gt rid of it as soon as possible. I made a big mistake in buying that project.

Lemmie consoled me last night and he said he will help me should I encounter difficulty in paying the instalment.

I really dun wan him to pay and I think I can try my best in settling the instalment.

I cancelled the selling contract.

Lawyer

Lawyer used to be one of my ambition.

I also dun know why I did not pursue that dream when I grew up.

I started working part time at the age of 15 and since then I have never looked back at my life.

Life is good to me, at least for now.

Lemmie told me his brother is having some problems in paying the legal fees for his divorce.

I feel sad for Lemmie as he is involved in helping his brother in settling the debts.

I hope to have this type of brother but sad to say, I do not have.

Lemmie is very good to his family and also to me.

I hope he will be blessed with good fortune in the coming years.

Holiday Thoughts

Thinking of holiday again!

This time, I am thinking of Hokkaido but Lemmie refused to accompany me as he has no money.

I told him I will pay for his trip but he rejected.

I think I need a break badly and I really need to get ouf of the Box to think of something for the future.

I need to think of what am I going to do next.

I need to plan for my future.

I need to plan for my retirement.

Have to start planning my holiday and hopefully I can celebrate my 33th Bithday in October in a memorable manner.

Delifrance - At Sentosa

Now, while blogging this, I am sitting at Delifrance Sentosa.

The environment is good. I am see the beautiful Siloso Beach.

I took the free shuttle bus from Singapore Cruise Ctr and alighted at Rasa Shangrila Sentosa. I know this is illegal for me but no choice. I can save $3.00 by doing that. I bought a chicken pie to reward myself for this idea. Anyway, that already cost me $2.65.

Sentosa is still the same. No big changes. Everywhere is having this construction going on.

Casino is coming and the land is getting heavenly pricing too.

How I wish I have the money to buy Sentosa Cove!

I am dreaming again ...

881- A Royston Tan Movie

Bought 881 Tickets for tonight 7pm show at Vivocity.

I heard about Royston Tan many years ago.

He is a famous local director in Singapore. I have always wanted to be like him but I never get the opportunity.

I believe a lot of times, luck plays a very important role. That is where I am lack of.

881 talks about local Ge Tai which is the aka similar to Live Concert but performed by not-so-famous singers and artistes.

I hope I will enjoy tonight show with Lemmie.

Alex & Junnie

Alex and Junnie are both my Tenants for Melville Park. Alex rented Room 1 while the latter rented Room 2.

Alex has been staying at Melville for the past 8 months while Junnie has been around for almost 14 months. Both have been good Tenants.

Due to the apartment being sold and to be vacanted soon, both of them wil be shifting out. Alex's last day will be 1st September while Junnie is on 22nd August 2007.

Sad to see them leave but no choice. There is no such thing as "Forever Tenant"

I wish them all the best and may Buddha bless them!

Aircon Usage from Bad Tenant

Jofin has been using aircon from 12pm to next day morning.

Utilities Bill is on the rise.

I spoke to him today and he insisted he does not know.

I told him the excess will be deducted from his deposit and he talked non-stop on his stupid theory.

Can't wait to kick him out as soon as possible.

You Die I Die

Last night, I was very depressed. I told Lemmie if I cannot pay the housing instalment, I will consider commit suicide. He is so cute. He said if I die, he will use his super power to come to heaven or hell to look for me! He will confront me on why I made that decision.

He very cute hor?

Today I bought 0309 and this number came up consolation. Win $60.
