Its been months

Everyone been telling me to do something about my blog cos its really lag with all the pictures. Anyway, finally got it sorted. Been really tied up with navy. Finally i am going to get my posting! According to my Instructors, it is suppose to be highly classified. They said they do not know what is my vocation about because they have no clearance, even the Major. They said we will only know when the instructor comes down on Monday to brief us up. Navy and their nonsense again.
Anyway, i am really glad about my vocation. Its called shark hunter. Haha. I am sure that it is nothing related to hunting sharks. Some of us will go to the light house. It is basically either 1 week work, 2 weeks off or 3 days work 3 days off. I am going to take my chances and say its basically using the Radar System to track intruders. Shall wait and see.
Valentine is coming! Aficionado is booked again. Will be posting some pictures soon. Done some marketing today and i am still considering whether i should throw in caviar. Love is not around this year, but nevertheless, i am sure it is still going to kick ass. Gonna pitch a tent for my friend and do up the ambience as well as the candle light dinner by the sea. Cant wait! love, wish u were around to turn things up!
I got another good news to share! Aficionado is book on October as well! Jill is super excited and upbeat about it. According to our corresponds through email with him, he is going to propose to his girlfriend in my house. Half way through the dining he is going to propose to her. I think its really magical to share this experience with someone and to help him make it a memorable one. Jill is of course getting excited about the marriage and stuff.
Also, i have been talking to some of my friends who have signed on with the navy. I was telling them about my investment venture and they seems keen to invest with me. After all they will be getting their lump sum of payout soon. Will need to sort out some investment product soon.
Well, other than that, wanna wish everyone a fulfilling Chinese new year.

Auto Bailout - All i ask for christmas

I was looking through my portfolio for the year end review and adjustment and it just strike me how freaking fast this year went. Back in Feb, when i just started out the firm, i was looking for investors and now i am gearing up my funds for repayment to my investors. 1 year and divendends are due. Time flies. Everyday looking through the activities and now and then meeting people up for a possible investment. Shit, 1 year flew pass! Next financial year to come.
All i want for christmas this year is a blessed year ahead for everyone and for jill to be safe and be enriched through her exprience. More importantly, am keeping my finger cross for the green light to be given for the Auto bailout of Amercia. 1 decision with tons of consideration, got to admire those ass in congress. Then again, look at the mess they created for themselves with policies that backfired. Thousand of jobs are at stake and more shake up of the unemployment rate will only continue to drag the economy to further standstill. If the green light is given, there will certainly be the early christmas index rally, providing much relief to investors.
This year has been a crazy year for everyone in the stock market, from crazy highs to crazy lows to eventful incidents comparable to the Great depression. Big question marks and worries when people see their portfolio, thinking what to do next. Looking back, i been so grateful to this big shake up. So much lessons to learn from. I guess nothing beats first hand exprience. I was one of those investors caught in the middle of everything not knowing what to do next or what to expect.
Everyone been rather worried about me esp jill and mh. I make crazy decision now and then to invest went everyone seems to be pulling out. After all, buffet once said, "be greedy when everyone is worried and be worried when everyone is greedy." Perfect sense right! 3 weeks ago, i got myself into more debts. i am sitting on a heap of loan, only jill knows the portion of the actual amount haha! took the money from a 2 year loan and reinvested in equities. thankfully with the bear rally kicking in the last 2 weeks i recovered 19k. but i guess its going down here and there with more profit taking from the market. But i guess, it was a decision well made during my BMT. However, not everything went well this year, i ever see my portfolio dip to the lows of over 30k and it left me puzzling what to do. All i can say, this year zoomed pass so fast and there was so much lessons i learn esp from the financial world.
With all said and done, i am broke once again. With repayment of bank loans and repayment for my investors i am almost living on $50 a month! haha. Ns pay of $420 is drained off immediately it comes and i cant start giving tuition because i dunno what is my schedule for NS for my new posting.
Anyone wanna treat me for lunch? haha

Perfect end to my BMT

Life in Tekong came to an end. Honestly, i thought i hate the idea of army and with the first few weeks of getting fuck i have come to enjoy my days in army. In fact, i kind of miss hanging out in bunk and marching around. We had all sorts of people in camp. ah bengs, tattoo crazy, prision records, drop out school. But you know what? this bunch of guys are the nicest lot that i ever know. down to earth and humble. You know they will never put on a fake front. Never on any pretext. They are what you see. Will look forward for any meet ups.
The best thing about BMT was that on my last ferry out of tekong, Jill messaged me and said she is in Singapore and she was waiting for me at Pasir Ris. I was like yea yea. How is Paris! Then i realised early on while i was talking to her i heard someone talking in hokkien and another group in tamil in the background. Than i realised! YEA love it back! I was like yea!!!! GUYS MY GIRLFRIEND IS BACK! everyone was like oh right Gab! finally. i was like shouting for eugene and all my other guys. Can u imagine after so many months and then suddenly she decides to surprise you. So sweet. oh well thats my jill! and she pick me up in her BMW!
Jill went back yesterday and this time its back to serious work for her! Love, master your skills and learn as much as you can! Dun forget to enjoy the exprience as well and keep your focus on your goals and dream of setting your restuarant.
With dec coming, everyone seems to be going away, Beng going hk, kenneth going tawian, harmony in china.

The best news was seeing my portfolio recover! lets just say its a 5 figure amount!

Your always on my mind

Maybe I didnt treat you
Quite as good as I should have
Maybe I didnt love you
Quite as often as I could have
Little things I should have said and done
I just never took the time
You were always on my mind

Maybe I didnt hold you
All those lonely, lonely times
And I guess I never told you
Im so happy that you're mine
If I make you feel second best
Girl, Im sorry I was blind
You were always on my mind
