Friday night

Now playing : Norah Jones - Chasing Pirates

Dinner at Equatorial Hotel, Coffee Garden last night was pleasant. It was our annual department gathering and the buffet was varying. Most of the food was acceptable, quite a number of choices but some were too salty. They served 3 types of potatoes and I'm a sucker for potatoes. Nothing else mattered after that. I tried the Portugese Barbequed Chicken. It was very tender but please, if you ever go there, don't take the BBQ sauce. It tastes like soap. Not that I have eaten soap but I imagine that's what soap would taste like.
We had a lucky draw after that at this OB Irish pub in Bukit Jambul Country Club. I got number 23 in the queue and then later on exchanged with another colleague who had 15 because we carpooled there and all of us wanted to go home early. I had a glass and a half of beer, and we all sat there looking bored, music was loud. I couldn't even hear myself think but I enjoyed the experience. I told my colleagues that it was my first time in a pub. They couldn't believe it because they said I didn't look so 'lau beh'. But it's true, although I actually prefer lounge than pub. Lounge music with live bands is so much better than the loud pumping, ear-splitting music in a pub. And finally, what did I get for lucky draw? Not so lucky...I got chopsticks. I wonder what I'm going to do with all those chopsticks. I could stick it into my hair like a kungfu gal!

Side note: Yes, Jo..that is the lyrics of my favourite Lee Hom song at the moment. But you should know better since you say I'm a banana.

Good day, sun shines!
There have were times of hardship when I felt unhappy missing knowledge about opportunities of getting high yields on investments. I was a dump and downright stupid person.
I have never thought that there weren't any need in big starting capital.
Nowadays, I'm happy and lucky , I started to get real money.
It gets down to choose a correct companion who uses your money in a right way - that is incorporate it in real business, and shares the income with me.

You may get interested, if there are such firms? I have to answer the truth, YES, there are. Please get to know about one of them:
