I went for a jog at the usual place, there was on and off drizzling, but lucky there was no heavy downpour.

I received a letter of my WL plan confirmation. I also went for a haircut today in the afternoon at the salon next to the usual one that I go. The director, who always cut my hair saw me when I walked pass the her salon but I decide to change this time.

I don't see any difference in my hairstyle although there was lots of them being choped off.

I got my refund cheque, might have to go down to cpf to check my OA, check my mother's hospitalisation insurance policy and my university loan details.

I have to get my GE financial planner to chase the underwriters to speed up.

I was chatting with a coworker and we were talking about money saving. A minimum of 1 million dollars is required for retirement, that is extremely challenging.

LC suddenly told me she is leaving but she seem not to want to reveal more. She is definitely the only person I will miss after my godmother, L.

I lend my camcorder to CL again, she say sooner or later I have to sell it to her. I told her to alert me if she needs manual workers for her company and other projects.

I ask HX for her tution agent just now, time to get back to freelancing.

NTUS reply very fast to my email, they called and confirmed the refund is in process, I am suprised the response is so fast.

I did not run today, just watch TV. I notice the finance section in the papers,check finance forums and advertisements more often now. If there is anything I need to learn the ropes from scratch, it must be this. I hope I am not too old to start. It is better to be watching from the sides and diving in when the time is right and the funds are enough...

I have bruises all over my wrists and arms again, and my shoulders are a bit stiff. Myabe it was due to insufficient aikido training, and too much suwariwaza(kneeling postion stances):P

Tere were quite a few new members due to new class starting, including a 40+ looking guy, it was packed like crazy.

I saw this "Luxury & Lifestyle Fund" in the bus stop stand.*pondering*

News headline: Less corporate taxes announced, bull stock rise immediately.

My classmates did mentioned that there is a budget airline to States, maybe, I can plan something crazy again. Hx suggest Shanghai for a short trip, sounds good and cheap.

Lingzhi is back and in 1000.3fm and got higher position, I miss her voice, so I am switching to 100.3fm morning show now.

I vow to save more money, as I seem to have insuffificent liquid cash. It is time for more extreme measures, so far I have done the following list:

1) Cancel Shape magazine subsription for the following year
-It is just yoga, diet fads, ladies' silly execrise for the weight conscious and fashion stuff,and totally a big mistake.
- I initially thought the gym workout tips are good but I realise the Mens' Fitness magazines make more sense.

2) Cancel NTUC gym
-I shall be chasing them to get my refunds soon.

3) Drink more plain water, buy less drinks at lunch.
-Healthy too

4) Try to take less cabs
-Get up early and be ready fast so as not to be late for work

5) Run more(zero cost) and go for public gym ($2.50 + $0.40 locker fees)

6) Cancel Dojo B's trainings
- I am still considering going there a-la-carte

Next on the to-do list:

1) Cancel NKF donation
2) Fill up tax form properly
3) Learn on mp3's "efficency" usage properly
4) Stay home more, wtahc TV and surf more

Today, I woke up at 11 am+, it was very late by my normal standard. I was out with my primary school friends for Kbox last night.

TZ says she will be a mother by July! I choose many old songs, they are easier to sing, I was too tired to sing properly anyway.

Lao Die's grandfather just passed away and is on compassionate leave, so I and da niu has to be on the alert. As usual, da niu quite nice to help out on some of my stuff, the vendor's eye pa jiao lah, see old script without using the content they have.

I was actually planning to see the Chinese Sinseh clinic today but put if off last minute, I wonder how I injure my shin. If I am make it, I should run with my "Extra" panadol late.

I finished the memoir "The Glass Castle: A Memoir " by Jeannette Walls at the usual cafe and read a bit of the Straits Times.

The next book I am interested is "Underground: The Tokyo Gas Attack and the Japanese Psyche" by Haruki Murakami

昨晚，我梦见自己在一家医院，突然间有好多人疯狂地乱跑。波音系统一直在重复地说：“所有的人不得走出医院，好像有传染病暴发，所以大家被迫隔离。

我的一个小学同学从窗外逃走，可是梦里好像录影带的"Rewind" and "Forward" 按钮，一直是她逃走前后的画面。

我的哥哥好像在拖欠学费和保险费，我以为他不能好好地找份工作，不把私人大学练完就算了。。。

我的爸爸上个月没有给家用，我告诉妈妈，他再这样我就跟他要。什么叫做不吃家里的饭就不需要给家用？放屁！

天下男人是不是一般黑我不知道，只知道，我家里倒是有两个这样没用的垃圾。

Tomorrow, I will be meeting up with my Prudential Planner and work up the best way to deal with my ILP(Investment-Link Policy) plan, it is a sticky situation. My new Great Eastern Planner is quite professional, she is very cute and pretty too, laugh like a kid, and has a childish/cartonnish voice( A mother of 2, dun play play!)

Given my Runner's knees history, I better keep the ILP, my future CI (Critical Illness) might not even cover my joints and this did not exclude any of the CI list.

It is not P's fault, it is just that I finally know the rule of the game, and I shall play by the game from now on.

Be firm, Zenpoet, you are the customer, the boss. Thanks God, A has been helping me sort out the puzzles (She used to be a finanical planner, hell she is one aggressive investor!! Looks are deceiving.) Maybe I should give myself a few years to study stock trade stuff, I saw many free classes (empty handed of course!)

Weather report from my younger brother: No rain.

I better rush home to train.

I miss my Dojo B's sempais, but if the instructor do not accept my 10 bucks, I am too embarrassed to join.

Yesterday was the first day I wear brown belt, it makes me feel awesome hehe, my skills sucks as usually and the sempais are constantly reminding me to slam now.

The budget airline pilot Europe guy joined us yesterday for the first time. I realised that being smaller and shorter as Asian makes it easier for us to train Aikido leh. One forward row by the white guy looks like a tsunami!

Should I go Hong Kong 21km Standard Chartered Run??! YES/NO??

I decided not to proceed with NTCU gym membership(they take forever to return my fees!!) as the new company that took over is too expensive.

Anyway public gym has younger crowds to look and enjoy. I see perky bums and nice assets everywhere. Alright, I admit the madding crowd is not a plus point but the price is dirt cheap! I still do only pumping and station cycling. Most of the people, especially the gals flocked and queued up at the treadmills. The 4-side-weight machines are definitely very tough for gals but I will survive.

Goals:
To learn to cook for my old buddies
Run 21km by this year
Get my Brown Gold belt (3rd kyu)
Saved $X in my bank account
Go for overseas run and or travel alone again
Set my fat ratio to 18 %
Drink more plain water less cold drinks

Yesterday at the interchange, I saw a middle aged, weather-beaten looking woman hit a teenage gal with an umbrella.

My first assumption was: this must be a mother getting a bit violent with punishing her own kid. However, it seem that she is crazy because she was walking off without the gal.

If she dare to poke her umbrella tip at me, I am sure my first reaction will be to snatch her umbrella away. Since she looks quite petty,fragile and weak, I might shove her hard too, haha. I never know but sometimes I believe there is a violent thing in me that only appears when I least expect it or when I am provoked.
