$$$ MOOLAH $$$

it's weird.
i dun feel the pain when i spend $$$ like crazy in June.
but when i look at my passbook now, i feel like slapping myself.

must be the post-exam-crazy-shopping-relief-syndrome.
and the post-exam-i-deserve-to-go-out-everyday-disorder.

赚钱是为了花钱。
but i have been consciously watching my expenditure in July.
even though i'm enjoying my most well-paid holiday job ever.
seriously, damn well-paid.
i should have charged the HSS and HALL4 people for all those hosting jobs.

i should pamper myself more.
buy t-shirts which cost more than $20 (yes TOPMAN how come ur t-shirts still cost $30+ during GSS), and shoes which cost more than $40 (enough of FASTER bugis street shoes).
no no no.
save it for a better future (hoho sounds so ambitious).

whatever.
I NEED A PAIR OF NEW SHOES.

朋友啊

人,闲来无事的时候,真的会胡思乱想。
今晚是第一次有这种体会。

facebook上有600个朋友,天天出现在news feed的也不过就那几十个。
600个里面,应该有过半是hi-bye friends。
有些甚至连hi-bye都不是,只不过是朋友的朋友,或一起上过一门课/一起合作过一个event罢了。

有些更惨,是小学同学,可是没有同班过。
真的真的记不起你是谁,甚至十年来没有跟你说过话,你却忽然来add我...
我对你的生活没兴趣,可是又不好意思拒绝你的friend request,叫我情何以堪。

所以,我狠下心delete了100多人。
跟他们实在没有任何值得珍藏的共同回忆。
在街上遇到应该会尴尬到极点。
没关系,他们应该不会发现我已经delete了他们。

有些,真的好久好久好久没联络。
现在忽然联络,可能会很冒昧,对方也可能会觉得我意图不轨(卖保险/房子之类的)。
可是,因为太久没联络,他们的近况也不再出现在我的news feed上了。
直到今晚,我一个一个“登门拜访”,才发现大家都不一样了。

模样/发型/打扮不同当然不在话下。
有些已经在加拿大/澳洲/英国发展得不错,似乎没有回来的打算。
有些从事着意想不到的工作,惊喜之余也替他们感到欣慰。
有些已经结婚了(还好还没生孩子)。

如果有一天,身边的朋友都结婚了...
放心,我会很识相的,不会用“重色轻友”对你死缠烂打。
毕竟每个人has different priorities in life。

如果你还不介意跟我吃饭,我当然乐意随时奉陪。
可是如果就那样渐渐疏远了,也只能这样了。
好好过你的人生吧!

这不是emo,是感慨...而且还是老人的那种。

perfect

i'm kinda living the perfect life right now.
not too busy, not too bored.
meeting awesome people, doing awesome stuff.
waking up every morning with a smile.

not forgetting the occasional meetups.
where i indulge in sinful food without feeling guilty.
and share the joys of freelance hosting.

locating my hosting assignments has made me more familiar with street directories and bus services.
discovered some street names which i never knew existed.
my sense of direction is not THAT bad after all.

this may sound unbelievable (for those who know me well).
but...making kids smile actually makes me smile too.
yes u heard me.
but still i'd rather adopt a 13-year-old kid.
MUAHAHAHAHA.
