“Troubled banks raising pay to retain top talent: Report”
“Bailed-out RBS to pay chief $23m: Report”
The bankers won’t learn. What is freaking wrong with them?
Yes yes. The poor bankers received lesser amount of bonuses because of all the regulation the US government placed on them. Oh poor thing. While thousands and millions are losing job because of their misdeeds, banks decided to up their basic salary to retain these supposing “top bankers”. WTH. Isn’t it time (for the bankers) to focus on the long term? Focusing on how they can get this economy going (in a right direction) instead of mulling over which bank/company is offering them a fatter compensation package?

I’ve picked up badminton again (after about 6-7 years). I was once in my secondary-school-class team. HAH. Once. But. I’ve never made it to the quarter finals. HAHA. This is going to be part of my new exercise regime.
Going to sign my life away at HDB. A debt-ful life awaiting. Cheers.
Everyone (me especially!) loves freebies! So when Snapfish (photo sharing and printing site) dropped me an email telling me they are giving away 20 free prints with free shipping I was thrilled! I will use them for my Korea trip!
Snapfish awards you with 10 free prints when you register! I’ve dropped my friends the referral email and both my friend (10 free prints!) and I will be rewarded! So, if you want me to drop you a referral email too, simply leave a comment with your email add!
You must be wondering what my previous blog entry is all about. It’s actually a small competition (organized by Singtel and Nuffnang) I took part together with Cheng Wei out of boredom. Our motivations? The top winner gets to bring home a MacBook and $200 cash prize! The other prize wasn’t too shabby either!
1st Prize: MacBook + $200 Cash
2nd Prize: IPod Touch
3rd Prize: $500 worth of SingTel Shop vouchers
Consolation Prizes: 16 x $50 Cash
Let’s all unite in prayers for my winning! HAHA.

With the durian season hitting Singapore in a fury, it is hard not to spot these royalties in our tiny island. BUT the best durians are still the untainted ones, the ones growing in a pure, natural environment, untouched by evil pesticides and innocent sounding grow-durian-grow chemicals, the “Kampong” durian. To get your hands on these delicacies, one has to brave through the woods, fight off mosquitoes and snakes, and stay awake throughout the night. If only internet connection is available along Upper Changi Road where durian trees can be found, those mosquitoes killing hours could have been “constructively” used in youtube.

Looking at my category cloud I realized more categories are needed for random posts instead of chucking them all under “Miscellaneous”.
The category for this post? Miscellaneous. Damnit.
A while ago (probably 3 months ago) Iora, a local women’s fashion retail chain, gave $50 vouchers (with no minimum purchase required) to some female students (cause it was while stock last!) in my school as a form of goodwill and with the purpose for students to tide over such difficult time.
I was one of the lucky beneficiaries! After purchasing a blouse and a necklace with the $50 voucher, I felt it is only appropriate if I express my appreciation to them. Here goes, thank you Iora!
One shall not succumb to temptations. Shopping is the equivalent to the modern day drugs except that the consumption of which is allowed and encouraged by the government agencies. Gosh.
Yesterday was a “ME” day and I busted $100 on clothes.
Today is a “Huge Sale in Kate Spade Online” day and I almost fall into temptation.
I was reminded by my sister the amount of money I owed Mama Bank / BF Bank / HDB Loan and the CPF Board. Sigh. Maybe next time.
