$288 hong bao !
there’s only so much i can do.
i been helping my friend with her assignment but there are limits to my ‘help’ .. asking me to amend another girl’s assignment, so that she can amend mine is outta question.
which is..
Z –> me
it should be Z –> my friend –> me
my role is to explain concepts, theory & amend her part.. which is aldy very nice. why shld i amend her friend assignment and she amend my part??!
pumpkin say she better give me a minimum $288 hong bao for our wedding. hahaha
the following day..
her team-mate sent her a file and she forward to me. hoping i will take a look and help her with it.
i didnt. i was busy with my reno stuff.
she ask me this morning..
did i look at her file. i said no.
i found out, she didnt look at the file either, coz she’s too tired after school.
seriously. final straw !

quote
simple paragraph..
”smts, the stars line up, the gods smile, and love gets a fighting chance. just a chance – that’s all it can really hope for. no guarantees, no certainties. she watched him take her hand. then they turned and stood facing the altar. today they were united, but surely there’d be other days when angry words would fly, or silence would freeze the household. days when love would barely stay aloft, like a bird fluttering on one wing. days when her quick temper and his cooler nature would send them spinning to their own corners, and they would both question the wisdom of this match. then there would be days like today. perfect days.”

life without .. plastic
i dont own a credit card.
and, i dunno how i make it so far without one. hahaaha
which leads to the next qns ..
is it essential ?
does a credit card inevitable leds me to spend future money?
its not that i cant afford to own a card, there are moments when i tot.. it’ll be so nice to own a card. but i never find myself truly needing it.
somehow, i never got around to filling in credit card application or the patience to listen to sales pitch. yawnn !
its d idea that i have survived 29 years without it. perhaps i never own a card, therefore.. i dunno what i’m missing out.
oh well.
