a relatively sick month

The second month of Jun had been a sick month; I have been down with headache, sour throat, flu and cough. Probably because I have stressed myself too much with book reading (說苑) ，that I managed to read 5 days (45percent of the book before I got seriously ill. For the next fortnight, I had to put aside all those important things and try to recover. For a while, I realized how important in health to me. I won’t be able to do much without a healthy body, so I should strive to rest a little bit more

Last Friday, I went to the movies with my colleagues at Jem. This is the first movie of the year (and probably the only movie of the year). We watched Independence Day 2. The movie were rather ok (although not as good as the first series)

Looking forward, I should be doing something important. Other than that , I should start to borrow books for my photography ( I got my camera plus the big dry box a week ago ) and I hope to be able to master the basics before the Taiwan trip this September

Talking about Taiwan trip, I managed to book the 2 days hotel at Kao shiong (for around S$80 a night , but the all the budget hotels seem to be fully booked ( or there’s a bug I believe ). Fortunately , the tour guide in Taiwan is willing to help me booked the hotel ( at S$150 per night). For the rest , I should be starting to book on july or august

Lastly , the imaginary tour to Melbourne has ended , I should paste some photos, hope I may be able to visit the place anytime in the far future (2019 or beyond)

Finally , I strive to be positive at all times

一個人也可以很開心

GOD bless all the time

blood donor day 2016

4 th jun 2016. Today, I went with my mum to national stadium for the world blood donor;s day . my mum was awarded a gold award for her contribution (donating blood for 70 times)

After a heavy breakfast , I drove my mother to the above venue. This is the first time I visited the newly built stadium , and briefly got lost as I was unsure of which car park to park .

We reached the place at 0915, where my mum registered as a gold award winner. Beside the gold awards winner (106) , there are also ruby award (200 or so winners), diamond award (80 winners) and champion awards (26 takers I think).

At 10am , the activities started with the CEO of red cross and Minister Foo each delivered a 15 minutes speech. There were many people ( but not as many as I predicted ). After 1030am , winners starting from champion going to the stage to receive there medals , following by diamond , gold and lasty ruby .

After the ceremony , we went to a nearby carnival before going home. The question I think I should ponder for quite a while , should I donate blood? Maybe if someone out there push me hard enough, I might move a little. Until then , I should keep blood donation out of my mind.

Camera wise , my friend has came back with the pricing of 865 dollars ( 165 dollars above my budget ), but since I have agreed before hand , I find no reason to say no ( just because of a few extra of 10’s bucks ?) Looking forward , I can only strive to learn as much.

For Melbourne trip , I should spend 2 days in the city , followed by a day at Mt Buller, a day at Philips island, a day at Mornington Peninsula, two days at GOR , followed by the last day at St Kilda.( Total 8 days). just to tell myself , it’s a good thing once awhile to be able to dream

I should stop here for now

一個人也會很開心，少則得，多則惑

GOD bless everytime, 慧台

May blog for 2016

It has been a relatively busy month as I spent a significant time doing Overtime work. There were some significant happening I might just want to pen down for a while. There are the By-election in bukit batok and preimer league fairy tale win by Leciester. Leciester managed to overcome the huge odds of ( 5000 to 1) to lift the English trophy. On the other hands, Dr chee was unable to win Mr muralli in the bukit batok ( PAP stronghold) althought he had the best performance ( 38.8 percent of the votes counted) of the 5 elections he had. Whatever the reason is , I hope Dr chee could pick up and come back again the next election (2020).

For 2016 half year report card, the days were pretty much as usual. I spent most of my effort trying to save some cash in so I would probably have some positive cash every month ( whether for the two overseas holiday or to buy the next car around june next year). On the downside , I haven’t been doing exercise and not reading enough.

I started on basic 2 of my Japanese ( there were 2 weeks break as mr Goto went back to japan ). Although I have tried pretty hard on the language , but I do not know what the future holds for me . for a while , I thought I should try to find some short term employment in japan 2017 or beyond, but I cant imagine my parents living alone , so such options should not come true after all .

Looking forward, I been pondering the decision to buy a camera. One of my friends might want to offer me a used canon DSLR camera , although he had not revealed the price yet ( probably it would be near the cost price of 799 dollars), it would not in my budget range . I should embrace a wait and see approach , and probably would buy , if he is ok to sell . If not I should just borrow one for the September tour, and just use my hand phone.

For the October trip to shanghai , I still can’t decide where I should go ( for 2 days ), should I go Nanjing , Hangzhou or su zhou ? I seriously hope someone would give me suggestion ( but who will?). I should postphone the decision making to September ( which I might just throw coin to decide)

Finally , for the June holiday, I might just start dreaming of melboune tour (17-24 ). Nicole Ng birthday is coming ( Jun 2nd ) , hope that she has a great day ahead.

Be positive , 一個人一定會很開心的，GOD Bless

2016年四月的感覺

四月是一个忙禄的一个月。月头有公司的常年宴会。去事没有去，今年不好不去。同样的，公司要求大家穿和主题有关的服装。今年的主题是”around the world”, 就是穿各地不同地方的服装，是什麽服装呢？问了几个同事都没有答案。只能自已想。上司有说，不穿服装的，一定没有机会参加幸运抽奖的机会。心里想，自已运气应该没有这麽好(能赢到任何东西)，就穿长袖衣就好了。

到了那里，才知道很多同事特别花钱去租服装来穿 ，人数比上几次还多。当然也有几位同事没有穿应该的服装(包括自已)，但还有有参加抽奖(也是好事吧)，结果自已的65号没有为自已赢到任何奖。想想，明年(如果还在公司的话)就会拿到五年的长年服务奖，到时，应该要租一些服装吧。

这个月也拿到花红了，上司有说，今年公司的生意不是很好，应该自已找机会学些设计的知识。和自已说，能学习本来就是一件好事，但要等公司给机会(或方向)，或许有点难，只能看一步，走一步了。

旅行方面，近来在想上海、苏洲、和杭洲的旅行。在想十月份的两天能去那里，感觉杭洲还不错(可以踏脚车)，苏洲感觉假山很多(感觉不是很好, 最多只能去同里古镇)。最有感觉的是去南京(中山陵)，但怕时间不够。不过肯定的一件事，就是不会留在上海。等九月才打算。现在就放一下「照骗吧」

关于台湾的旅行，有问过关于租车的事情，那里的人也给了一些建义。看起来还不错，最少有机会去宜兰和花莲(一天)。但阿里山的行程也实在太赶了，还是搭巴士比较好。就订三天的私家车好了，现在等私家车的价钱。

最后，睿娴的生日要到了，希望她会开心。

写到这里，

什麽事学会看得开，一个人一定会很开心的

april blog 1 for 2016

After a week of pondering , I decided to cancel my handphone ( starhub ) and to take up a Hi card ( prepaid card). ah peng ( Biao ge ) mentioned that he still have a old M1 number which I help him to register 2 years ago, and he is ok to return to me the number .

I spent a night trying to understand the Hi card using method. He mentioned that it would be good to buy the 128 plan (28 dollars for 50 days). For mobile boardband wise , I need to buy another data card. so I could buy data either 300MB for 5 dollars or 1GB for 10 dollars . both of the plans only last one month. I hestitate for a while and ah peng helped me to buy the 1 GB plan , so I got more to use . since the phone has some existing money to be expired on 18 Apr 2016 ( and Ah peng decided to give it to me free ( thanks him btw ). I think I can last till 17 apr 2016 before topping up the M1 card.

When I made this decisions ( of using hi card ) , some of my friends voiced their concern on whether would I spend more or similar questions . I welcomed their concerns but I would try all my best to reduce handphone usages over the time. Since I hardly had any phone calls (probably 30 or so phone calls in a month . I had 4 dollars in my card to use from 28 march till 18 Apr .and till now (6apr ) , I managed to use only 1 dollar . and for mobile boardband , used 200Mb for 28 march to 6 march ( 9 days ). I think 300 Mb is ok for me , as I would just need to survive 20-25 days per card ( before topping up again)

In all I should limit my expense to 30 dollars a month ( from 64 dollars from my previous starhub plan). Saving sometimes is a nice thing (少則得，多則惑)

For Taiwan trip, I managed to book 3 tickets to Taiwan on 20-27 both on scoot for 977 Dollars . I missed out buying the jetstar tickets on Friday 1st apr on 69 dollar ticket ( as I got problem with my mastercard , and the prices surges to 169 dollars the next day). I have no choice but to settle for scoot (154 dollars). Althought I end up paying around 70 dollars extra per person , I managed to get a mid night flight and reaching Taipei 6 hours earlier then the jetstar counterpart.

For Japanese studies, I will be completing basic one tonight , and there will be a 2 weeks break before I start on lesson 2. I haven’t made any Japanese friends till now , but I hope positively that one should come soon

Finally , I unable to go back to Malacca this month , I should find time to go back next month

That’s all for now

一個人也要很開心

God bless every time , all the time

三月的感想

三月，就在一个很平静的感觉下，渡过了。工作不算忙，但还是有东西做。整个月当中，不是忙着学学日语 ，不然就是看一下去杭洲、苏洲、上海的旅行。也有想着九月去台湾的行程。

在台湾方面，scoot的价钱好像一直在涨，或许会提早从17出发 (坐jetstar)，24号回新加坡 (这样，自已拿的假也比较少吧。只用五天而且)。大概会去的人数从四人减到三人，(汉忠要照顾外公，去不了)。几乎不会去花莲了。如果没有意外，下个礼拜，就会先买去台北的飞机票。其他的就不用担心了.

关于杭洲之行，大概不会变了(18到28)。行程会是(上海-杭洲-西塘-苏洲-同里-上海)，省下来的时间，开始看看照片，感觉上的开心就好。很巧的，公司在十月份也会去上海。同事们都在讲着要去几天，但到现在也没有人问到自已的想法。大概是没有人想要和自已走。公司给三天两夜，总觉得少了一点，就给自已加了两天 (19号至23号)。会去那里呢？只能从杭洲和苏洲之间做一个选择，南京就不考虑了，也去不到非诚的现场了。大概也只会一个人走。什麽事，六七月份才来决定。

读日语的第一课程到下个月的6日就结束了。老师有问起要不要进第二课(4月27日开始)。想想读了 BASIC 2 再打算吧。什麽事，努力自已都是好事。

买相机的计划，到现在还没有一个决定。有问过毅辉，他有给一点建仪，能帮助不大，最后还要自已决定。下个月再看吧。最多在网上买个200-300元的二手相机，就当做是一种学习的过程(学会独立吧)

最后，这个礼拜，自已的表哥( AH PENG) 将会搬到柔佛去住，家里又少了一个人了。这个礼拜有着玮馨姐姐的生日(3月29日) 和春敏的生日 (4月三日)，只能感觉上祝她们开心

什麼事都可以開心，一個人是可以的，就當做省錢日吧。

寫到這里， 日就月將，每天都有成就，每月都有進步。

二月的回顾，三月的开始(2016)

经过二个月，超级省钱月，我把每个月的个人开销从340元减到180元，结果，我一月花了196元，二月花了158元。想想，省钱也是好事。

新年过了，自已拿到的21个红包(412元)，太不可思议了。最少，这样的一笔钱，可以拿去还路税，和保险(910元)。

学日语也进入了第6个礼拜了。进展还不错，但每次老师要自已发言的时候，自已就有明显的口吃，自然的紧张，讲得辛苦吧。同学方面。本来有的3名男同学，有两名只来了一次(trial)，之后就没来了。另外一名也沒有機會講話。还有5名女同学，但感觉大家只为了来学日语，班结束后，就赶着回了，想和她们讲话，都没有机会。和自已说，算了，有东西不好勉强，一个人学日语也不一定是坏事。这次的日语学到4月头，或许会停两个月，六到七月才会上第二课吧

三月的开始。春天要来了，可以想四月去杭洲(幻想)的旅行。这比应该会从(19 到28日)，会去杭洲(4天)，苏洲(2天)，上海(4天)。感觉开心就好。

九月份去台湾的行程，大概会是9月20-27日。因为星期二的飞机比较便宜。想想可能不去花莲了吧。什麽事五月再讲。

几个月没有看非诚了，但「五朵」的感觉还很多。或许有时间，我也应该回去看看新一期的非诚。五朵的生日又要到了(3月8日)，要在这里祝她生日快乐，永远美丽(最少久一点)。还有15号也是文雅生日，祝她开心吧。

看得开，一个人的自已，就当做是省钱的日子，

一个人也会很开心。

God bless every time , all the time

2016 (猴年)过年，过着、过着，过了。

2016年的过年，才很平静的日子下渡过了。在过年前，终于有机会和姐姐、姐夫在外面吃饭。在姐姐那里听到，老爸好像得了老人痴呆。好像有一点吧，和自已说，有时间就要上去找他(老爸)坐坐。

四天的过年假期也这样过了。新年前，花了不少钱买了很多年货，糕点等的食物，也买了比较贵的台湾干(20粒- 28元)。虽然去年没有人来我们家拜年，但总不能不买，就当买一个希望。如果没有人来(确实初一到初四，没人来)，糕点就当每天的早餐，吃一个月也会吃完的。

年除夕，在家吃团圆饭，只有两个人，也不能煮太多。只要乐观一些，没有过不去的路。初一早上，我母亲就去马六甲了。留我一个人在家。这四天，除了礼佛事以外，就找书读，学一下日语，累了就睡一下。日子也不是这麽难过的，最少，没有出门的日子，可以省钱 ( 四天都没有花到什麽钱)。初三晚上有去看小姑和二伯吧，也是好事。在冈上，自已也send 了很多祝福。反是有回应的，我都很开心( 远方的妙娴和五朵 ) ，没有回应的，他们都忙吧。只要乐观都是好事。

今年的运程如何呢？看了几个星座学，都说属「龙」的，今年运程差，恋爱和事业都不是很顺利，还说最好不好去探望病人和白事。和自已说，减少慾望是必要的，但自已应该做的东西(探望病人和白事等等)，就去做。只要相信一句话，「永言配命，自求多福」。只要做正确的事情，虽然福不一定会来，但也能远离祸害。这就是我今年的想法吧

过有一句话，快乐，不在于拥有很多，而是计较得很少。希望今年，我都能做到这一点。情人节要到了。和去年一样，今年一样没有可以送卡片、礼物或花的对像。对于自已喜欢的人，也只能默默祈祷，希望「远方」的她会过得开心。反正让她知道(我喜欢她)，她会生气的，很多东西，保持现状是好的。一个人也可以很開心 (也能省钱)，朋友没空，不出门 (也是省钱的好方法)。最后祝我的朋友新年快乐，情人节也快乐。

下个幻想之行又要开始了，这次会想想杭洲，苏洲和上海之行吧。

写到这里, 一个人也会开心
