I�m tired.. studies abt 8hrs today at tea party was there from 1-9 p.m. Edward successfully guessed that i was from ij.. and hahah sherli was an ij imposter ( ops ). Once an ij gal always an ij gal.. well i do miss those blue uniform days and yea i miss bridget n frens. I could have been in a convent for 10 yrs like brid and mag but well i thank God for placing me in westlake too.. okie i will stop the ij thingy.. its getting abit egoistic.
Dad broke news that he would be officially leaving the company in July. Well definitely mixed feelings again la. But i rem myself saying this in the past, daddy can stay as home as long as he wants, but let me get a job first. No doubt dad would be compensated till he reaches 60 but i would still eh prefer him to be occupied with a job. Muahahha not bcos he would be staying at home n watchin national geog or discovery channel but also make him feel that he's useful? aiya dunno how to put it la.. when u r old and you have nothing to do, somehow people have the tendency to think that they are worthless.. that's y mummy wanna work.
Okie i confessed.. i did complain that if my bro has been more zheng qi, probably dad n mum wldn't need to slog so hard and could be enjoying their lives now. At times, i wonder if daddy is like Uncle peter who has great foresight in investing and yeah daddy could retire all he wants.. Well God gives some and take away some and to look more positively, i do thank God for being so gracious to my family.. we are indeed much more fortunate than other families out there. I'm able to complete my teritiary education without any financial difficulties at all and yeah by the time dad leaves the company.. i should have secured a job.
Was reading the article concerning the casino resort in Singapore. It states that it will bring in $3.4b a year. I told mum that no doubt this project gonna generates revenue it probably creates social problems. Higher divorce rate, even higher juvenile delinquent rate that could be caused by broken families. Well not forgetting drugs and gambling is like a package too. It was stated that the additional 1.4b in taxes generated could deal with the social consequences of gambling and are that � has not been addressed� here, but money is not always the case to mend and heal the broken hearts n families caused by gambling.
Hmmm?
