End of the month!

It has been a torturous month having to play so many roles and deal with all sorts of problems, new and old. Looking backwards to the events in the month, I certainly feel there is still plenty to work on to become a better person. Habits die hard, and people are reluctant to change their images...characters are fixed to a certain extend. Each individual wants to carve out a world of their own.

The relaxing of financing for property buying made me look at some of the upcoming developments. This interesting one is the one at the former Keppel Shipyard, where you live in a condominium by the sea! That sounds cool ah.. In my mind, for reality I can settle for a studio apartment which most probably I will call it my bach-pad, but in my dreams I do want to live on a little island that has only my own house on it. I mentioned it before, it's like the Kame House in Dragonball. You have your own private beach, your own private waters... haha. For the time being, I will stick to looking forward to my new home in Punggol. It makes me feel really exciting...woo... a new place to live in, new lifestyle, new habits!

I certainly lament the recent de-peg of the Malaysian ringgit to the US dollar... urghz. Hopefully the Singapore dollar will appreciate too to counter escalating costs of imports. That's what everyone in Singapore wants, but personally I want it because it means cheaper stuff in Malaysia... haha. Hopefully the ringgit exchange rate stays above 220RM to 1 SGD for the next 2 weeks... haha.

I finally finished an interim compilation of the discounts available in Uni+Vantage. My teammates in SMU are still in the midst of discussing for more... and the NUS/NTU team have yet to renew theirs! I hope they will be at least 50% successful because that will bring the total no of discount outlets to more than 40.. hehe. I will put up the document link here, but please do remember to bring your matriculation card along and if the vendor you are visiting is a service-related merchant, do call in advance to check. I hope when we finish up all the renewal/addition, and when NTU finishes building the website, we will be able to provide you with this season's discounts. Do keep us informed if you have any complaints... feedback, or contacts. Heh. This is the link www.geocities.com/jeffire16/univantage300705.pdf. Ya, this is for all of you, SMU, NUS, NTU friends!! Hope you all like it~~
