Formula WORK + SAVE = MONEY

I believe there are three types of people in this world.

One that works hard but is very unfortunate that everything doesn't go well for him/her,
then theres one that works hard and gets their just rewards and lastly the one that doesn't need to work and gets a comfy life.

I'm a believer in what you work, is what you get or rather how much you work, is how much you'll get and that there is no free lunch in this world. I was brought up in a manner where I need to work and earn for the things I want. As a kid I had to earn extra money by helping out around the house, like cleaning the toilet, repaint the walls, etc. And with the money I have earned and saved for months and even years, only then I could go and buy that "monopoly" board game that I had longed for. I have to admit that there are times when I actually get lucky and do get things when I asked from my parents, but they tend to come with promises and commitments (like scoring A's in the exams).

With that background, its hard for me to deal with certain people who do not need to work for a living and yet demands for something, in which they had not worked for. Its a fact of life that if you do not work for something, you wont get it.

The formula is simple WORK = MONEY. Some of you might say, there are lots of people out there who do not work and they are inherited with lots of Money. I will say its partly correct, because the person whom they inherited the Money is the person who actually WORKED for it.
That money that you inherit is not the outcome of your hard work.

So lets all work and achieve your goals with your own hands. You'll feel proud at the end of the day with your achievements.

HK shopping list

There are quite a number of items I'm looking forward to get while I'm in HK this August.

1.) Camera Lenses for my Nikon (RM600 - 1,500)

2.) Shoes (RM 200 - 300)

3.) Caps & Hats (RM50 - 150)

4.) If any money left - an apple iPod (RM500)

Sigh.. that adds up to be around RM2,000 to RM3,000.... Would somebody give me an interest free loan? Hehehe...

Insomnia.. HELP!!!

Damn, I couldn't fall asleep tonight. Its been such a restless night, and now I just cant stand it so I got up and decided to surf the net. By the way, its 4 in the morning.

My head aint right at this hour of the day and so I might be writing gibberish. Sigh, help me out here... I want to SLEEP!!! Counting sheeps and imagining waterfalls didn't work. What else is there? I used to rely on watching malaysian football to cure my insomnia.. Everything I watch our Malaysian Football League on national tv, I'm bound to fall asleep. Pretty much sum up how entertaining our Malaysian football can be.

Talking about football, this weekend Man Utd will be squaring up against Liverpool where else Arsenal will be facing Chelsea. It will be interesting to know what the results will be.

Well, cant think of anything to write now. Back to facebook i presume... How long is this gonna last.. I might as well go out for an early breakfast. My tummy is grumbling for food now.

Living Hell in my Workplace

Arrgggh!!! I just gotta leave this place. It is getting very unbearable. The humilation and insults and not to mention the measly pay for the amount of work one has to endure. The boss is exactly what we chinese call "Lou Sai" (small brain). He is a complete RET@RD!!

The worse news is, I'm now stuck in a 3 months notice. It is very frusfrating, I need to leave. I feel like I'm being made jack-ass (sucker) everyday. I'd say just F*ck it and scr*w them. They kinda forget I'm the sole person responsible for their eMarketing initiatives, they wanna play the game.. I will play the game with them. Let see who will be in a shit hole when I leave.

Justin's Top 5 of 2007 / 08

Here's the List of Justin's Top 5 picks of 2007 and the upcoming 2008

The year 2007 have just passed and we have already ushered in the new 2008. Many great things happened back in 07 and many great things will happen in 2008 (most notably will be China Olympics). So with so many great things that happened and will happen, I've gathered what are my Top 5 picks.

Number 5
The Apple iPhone is at No.5 of my list is because in the mobile world, none other had such an impact than this little baby here. Just about everybody I know wanted one. Its stylish, simple and just oozes with class. This little gadget here might not be packed with the latest features available on the market, but for those who want to make fashion statement, this is the ultimate accessory. You know you would want to be caught holding one of these at a party or a club.

Number 4At number 4, we have the colorful LCD displays by Sony. This LCD series by Sony can be seen a mile away with the colorful LCD casings (Pink, Red, Blue & white). But apart from its bright colors, the displays on the LCD is also truly amazing and sharp. With the cheapest at RM3,499 (32-inch, pls correct me i'm wrong), the sony bravia would bring 'sexy back' into your living rooms.

Number 3

Here at number 3 is the newly launched Mac Air by Apple. This Super thin Macbook shouts STYLE all over. Pull this out from your bag and place it on the table at your favourite Starbucks and you'll get eyeballs staring non-stop. Truly a magnificent design, the only bad side I come up is that it doesn't have a built-in DVD drive. You'll need an external drive when you wanna watch those DVDs.

Number 2

Rightfully at Justin's number 2 spot is the Bell & Ross watches. These two above is Limited editions with a price tag no less than RM20,000 a piece. Want to be up there with the big boys but want to escape from wearing those conservative looking Rolex and Patek watches? Then Bell & Ross is the perfect timepiece accessory. Sporty, young and trendy is what you'll get when you slap one of these on your wrist. Definately a must in my wish-list.

Number 1
The number 1 spot in my list goes to the 2008 Mercedes Benz C 350 avantgarde. This baby not only drives and handles superbly but the looks are stunning. Stick some 20" inch chrome rims, AMG bodykit and tinted windows and you are pimped up. The C350 comes with Bi-Xenon lamps, AWD, electric seats, etc the list just goes on. This will definately shout that you've finally reached up there with the big boys.

Yesterday

My darling gave me a call out of a sudden yesterday while I was a work and said she booked two tickets for a movie. We watched the show Jumper, it was an interesting movie. It provided alot of imagination to those who have watched it. Naturally people will start wishing all the places they could jump.

More importantly it was a very nice feeling to have her to plan something out of the blue. A nice twist to a mundane and routine week.

I hope this sort of thing happens a tad more regular.
