The office boy
I once read this story somewhere. Can't remember how it goes exactly but it's something like this: A jobless man applied for the position of office boy at a company.
The HR manager interviewed him then watched him cleaning the floor as a test. "You are employed." He said." Give me your e-mail address and I'll send you the application to fill in, as well as date when you may start." The man replied "But I don't have a computer, neither an email." I'm sorry", said the HR manager, "If you don't have an email, that means you do not exist. And who doesn't exist, cannot have the job." The man left with no hope at all. He didn't know what to do, with only $10 in his pocket. He then decided to go to the supermarket and buy a 10Kg tomato crate. He then sold the tomatoes in a door to door round. In less than two hours, he succeeded to double his capital. He repeated the Operation three times, and returned home with $60. The man realized that he can survive by this Way, and started to go everyday earlier, and return late Thus, his money doubled or tripled every day. Shortly, he bought a cart, then a truck, then he had his own fleet of delivery vehicles. 5 years later , the man is one of the biggest food retailers in the US . He started to plan his family's future, and decided to have a life insurance. He called an insurance broker, and chose a protection plan. When the conversation was concluded, the broker asked him his email. The man replied, "I don't have an email". The broker answered curiously, "You don't have an email, and yet have succeeded to build an empire. Can you imagine what you could have been if you had an email?!!" The man thought for a while and replied, "Yes, I'd be an office boy!"
I love this story a lot. I'm sure different people will derive different morales from this story. To me, I use it to remind myself, don't look back. There's no point in regreting what you have done or have not done, just work forward and something better might just turn out.

Life is but a dream
Row Row Row your boat
Gently down the stream
Merrily Merrily Merrily Merrily
Life is but a dream
Life is but a dream indeed.
Just a passing dream.

Back from Madrid
Just came back from Madrid and Toledo. Beautiful place, great shopping, (minus the fact that I don't appreciate the food, and that the people don't seem very friendly to asians). Europe is indeed a shopping paradise. Had an initial budget of S$1,000 to spend there and I ended up spending over $3,000. There are just so many good buys over there! Plus the tax rebates! I really couldn't help myself!
 
 
Here are my great buys!
And these are the really really really really good buys which are so much cheaper in Spain:
Camper shoe x 1pair, Camper slippers x 1 pair, Loewe wallets x 2, Loewe bag x 1, swarovski ring x 1, swarovski necklace x 1, zara ties x 2, Pull & Bear T shirts x 2, H & M shirts x 25, mango bag x 1, LV wallet x 1
There are just so many things I wanted to buy but had not enough time. Wanted to grab some zara shirts at S$40 but was really too tired to try them. And I looked like an idiot grabbing so many H & M shirts ,like some 'suaku' like that.
Will update again

Chickens!
A little boy and a little girl attended the same school and became friends. Every day they would sit together to eat their lunch. They discovered that they both brought chicken sandwiches every day!
This went on all through the fourth and fifth grades, until one day he noticed that her sandwich wasn't a chicken sandwich.
He said, "Hey, how come you're not eating chicken, don't you like it anymore?"
She said "I love it but I have to stop eating it."
"Why?" he asked.
She pointed to her lap and said "Cause I'm starting to grow little feathers down there!"
"Let me see" he said.
"Okay" and she pulled up her skirt.
He looked and said, "That's right. You are! Better not eat any more chicken." He kept eating his chicken sandwiches until one day he brought peanut butter.
He said to the little girl, "I have to stop eating chicken sandwiches, I'm starting to get feathers down there too!"
She asked if she could look, so he pulled down his pants for her.
She said "Oh, my God, it's too late for you! You've already got the neck and the gizzards!!! | | Friday, April 13th, 2007 | | 10:47 am |
Recently I've been having a strange feeling every night before I sleep.
That I'll not be waking up in the morning.
It's really a weird feeling, like your body tells you that it's sick of carrying out routines for you everyday and doesn't want to do it anymore.
Maybe it's telling me to take life at a slower pace.
Looking forward to leave at the end of this month.
