Yes....another strong 8.8 earthquake hit Chile this time and like always people will be killed and wounded. The question is how many people will die and be wounded this round. Sad fact of life.
According to the fung shui experts....this tiger year thingy will see quite a few of these type of painful lessons be it earthquake, flood, tsunami, snow storm, heavy rain.....and report of people getting killed or wounded.
See what happened to Haiti....the suffering and hardship and now this!

toto and 4D up-date
No smell lei....10 million draw and 5 instant millionaires, POWER for them. Yes...as
usual I invested a couple of hundreds and this time, not even 3+1 or $20 hahaha. Toto is super hard to kena....when have no luck! Still enjoyed the feeling of the winner's dream.
4D....wah rao already Feb is almost gone and the 2 sets of numbers I pick have not show up yet. Super stubborn lei....ok, give them the last chance - tomorrow's 4D draw. Hands already shakily....wah, spent quite a lot this month. CNY...on 4D and Toto...plus for transport - taxi fares.
Oh....yes, talking about taxi fare! This morning I took a taxi home....very tired and sleepy plus I went to Sing Siong to do a little marketing. So...took the taxi from there to house. Total - $14. Along the way....talk with the cabby, he is a nice guy about driving a taxi and his earning. And this gave me an other choice.....of
earning a honest living since I already had a taxi licence for so long. I was thinking of what he said...he drove only on certain times eg "peak hours" and he managed to make ends meet. Then...with other free time, he would used the taxi to run his errands. He likes his freedom too. Yes...can give me a chance to drive a "Merc" and make ends meet plus the freedom of trading stocks and forex when have the time. Frankly....for stock trading, just cannot trade every single day and win.
But can monitor and when time to trade...then trade esp with my CFD account. Everything can be done with a pc, I-phone or laptop. So....no point sitting in front of pc every single hour and stare at the monitor. That way...I can be productive and not waste time.

Friday up-date
Share market here....is like dancing, two steps forwards then 3 steps backwards and so on. In the end....it's not here nor there.
So guessed that...I will continue to let "go" of the market trading for the moment. I can feel...that the market won't be going anywhere soon but something "bad" may pop up suddenly and soon too. My view is to take profit if possible...or take a small lose if have to and clear all outstanding positions for now. Let what may happen.........happened! then when market drops people will panic....only then will I come in to monitor and trade! This is a sure way of having the cake and eating it.
For the moment....go smell flowers, go for a swim, gym,, sauna and feed the fishes.
Can even go to Bt Timah hill for a morning walk...and say hello to the monkeys there. Or just breath easy....and sit beside the pool and read a book or just watch people walking by hehehe!
Frankly not a easy thing for me to do...but I will try my best to do it to remind sane and not lose any money esp in this type of market situation.

Day's lesson in life.
Wow....as usual after a night at work from 7pm till past 7am with sleepy eyes and heavy legs but still got to get to AIA office at Alexandra Rd to settle the insurance policies. Hardly can sit up-right without dosing off. So sleepy esp with the slow bus ride and the air-con blowing straight at my face. Eyes...closed hehehe!
Nearly leaned onto the old lady sitting beside me....that's bad, no?
Then changed bus at AMK....and that bus is better becoz I gave up my seat to an old lady ( reminded me of my elder sister )....but wah, everyone gave me a stare! I was liked....What the fish??? never people now give up seat to older people??? Then I noticed that most people....faster rushed up the bus and make for a seat then......
faster closed eyes to catch a nap or just open something to read. So......giving up
seat is not a common practice. I felt odd esp with all....the stickers telling young people to offer others a seat. Anyway...I feel good and I won't feel sleepy too.
Saw...an elderly guy talking quite loudly but no one bother with him, so me too. Only after he got off the bus that I realised that he is blind and he was asking the driver to tell him the place to drop. The trouble was that he speaks in Chinese while the driver was an Indian...and he is blind. Then...another old lady found the blind man's hp....but the bus was already some distance away. Not easy....on the bus and I saw quite a few people dosing off like me earlier then I understand why people don't readily gave up their seats. Self protection...or self first! Okay I am fine with that.
Then when I got to Alexandra village....went to eat breakfast at the hawker centre. Order a bowl of noodle...ok with the bigger serving too at $3. Then I noticed the guy who took my order was a handicap. Both legs were having problem...polio or something but he was a pretty fast worker too. That man.....really taught me a good lesson that I felt ashamed of myself. Me....no car and maybe facing a slight difficult and stressful time ( no car and self pity on bus mah plus pressure from boss from my side-line on sales quota for this Qtr )...I was feeling down and sad!!!
But shit....who am I to complain when many others are worst off than me. The blind man....losing his hp??? The handicap hawker's assistant who have to serve all the customers without any help. That is why...I faster faster went up to the hawker once my bowl of noodle was done and ready to serve myself....really would felt bad if let the handicap assistant served me. Frankly I am not looking down at the assistant but I was really ashamed with myself. After that....I walked faster and put a smile to my face. If a handicap can....then I can, life can be better if everyone tries to smile often. No need to have black face...now at work, think my attitude towards my workers changed, I will try to be a nicer person. I will try my best to continue with this attitude....think it's for the better.
Went to Sing Siong for dinner with my counter-part and yes...I enjoyed it again. Same order...a sweet & sour pork dish with plain rain with a pot of soup. Plus a bowl of dessert. POWER...just $9.50 and I really enjoyed the food. So....life is not
too bad if just let "go" a little! I am too up-tied with myself most of the time. So with the accident...and these few days of getting use of riding on buses and eating at hawker centres, I really felt "blessed" or instead of being a "poor victim" of bad luck. I should be feeling great....yes! less comfortable but yes! still alive and with good health and I can stand tall and straight too.
Hope I can be a better person too....less loud, less strict with everything and everyone around me...and with myself too. No need to be too egoistic with myself!!
It is fine to be old...it is ok not to judge others....it is also ok to let things be as not easy to understand "standard or norm". Just close eyes....if things make no meaning.

Trading - stocks and forex
For the whole week....didn't really sit to monitor the both except for 10mins on Monday for me to sell my Raffles Edu shares. Managed to clear all 75 lots at 40 cents at the last minutes of trade. POWER!
For forex....totally did nothing. No trade!
I remember a good advice...."no trade is better than a losing trade!" From that advice....I fully agreed with that concept. Why? I asked myself....why do I trade?
My answer....is I wanted to make money which is "winning". And since I didn't really put efforts in scan for break peak or break trough for stocks, I should just stay away for the moment until I got my "form" back. Same for forex....anyhow play then anyhow lose lor!
Another good advice is....don't try to do anything if unsure, also be 100% prepared if really want to try it. That way...no regret!

Car insurance thingy
Shit....my car insurance only offered to pay 40% of the damaged and I am supposed to foot the rest which is about $17 to 18K. Thought...I am supposed to cover my own excess of $500 when I claimed against my insurance but when things happened ...the insurance company also turn "ugly" and start this stupid blame game. Only this year they have increased the premium from $600 to %800+....and now this when I need to claim.
Been paying the premium without me...giving them any problem and my NCB is at 50% plus 5%.
One claim...they turn "ugly". WTF!!!

This morning....went home by bus and now super tired now.
Frankly...it's not by choice. I couldn't find an empty taxi and having walk from Sing Siong to the main road. After waiting for more than 15 mins...the bus came along so I decided to give it a try. Bus no 88 from AMK Ave 5 ( beside seagate ) to Marymount Rd. When I got down....immediately got up another bus no 852 to Bt Timah Road. POWER....the whole journey took me about 45 min including waiting time and it costed me less than $2.00 and the bus is not crowded but kind of bone-shaking old.
One thing...good was that I had the time to look out of the window and noticed the things I never had the time to see or notice. Esp at Bt Timah near Ave 6....that there were quite a few nice shops for makan then the condos and the huge houses along Bt Timah Rd.
Thinking of taking the bus again to come to work...but rained heavily so took a cab. Maybe tomorrow if no rain...I will take the bus again. A nice slow ride and do some people watching hehehe!!!
Yes now....I am covering for my counter-part Mariana for the whole shift....instead of just working half day job since got no transport to go home at 1am.
