You're as good as gone;

It's a little tough, that's all.

Promises, promises.
Don't make them.

Back then...

I'm feeling a little nostalgic and hearing about Fandi Ahmad and his new book brought back a truckload of memories from my childhood days.

I remember soccer used to be such a huge part of my life when i was really young. I remember going to S-league matches with my brothers and dad and screaming our lungs out and blowing whistles etc. I recall those days where we'd be so psyched up for a match between Woodlands and Geylang. And how we'd all support geylang cos fandi ahmad was playing for them then and well, he was like this legend to us kids back then. Some untouchable hero. And we'd boo at woodlands cos their club was usually filled with bad ang mohs! (in the eyes of a kid anyway). And how my family would wave the large Geylang flag and i'd gloat (mentally) cos no one within close proximity would have a geylang flag like we did. :)

Or the nights when we'd wait outside tampines stadium wishing desperately to get a ticket to watch Tampines Rovers play cos mum wouldn't buy tickets for us. We ended up just queing to get in and were denied entry anyway. I remember how devestated we were each time we were denied entry (yes, we kept queing and queing again! Kids. Don't judge.). We'd end up watching through the Gate bars like the small pathetic soccer-crazed kids we were.

I remember (not so clearly) those times when things seemed so simple. How our world revolved around soccer matches, pokemon cards, tamiya cars and Digimon & Pokemon shirts (yup, i used to wear ONLY digimon and pokemon shirts. Omg dont tell anyone okay! hahahaha)

Good times, good times.
:)

Yes, I most certainly would :D

(if you're as cute as this guy hahah ^^)

Applying what you study to real life

An economist’s approach: Life

In life, as in markets, we face the economic problem; the problems posed by allocating scarce resources to infinite wants. For example, the desire for power and money.

You will find, if you have not already, that the resources of money and power are scarce and the want for them, prevalent amongst many, is infinite meaning that they forever cost those who seek them dearly. Seeking to fill the demand for power or money is impossible, those who seek them often want more and there is only a certain amount out there.

However, there exist goods that by consuming we do not diminish the supply of and cost us nothing to consume if we but desire them; public goods. Two good examples of this are love and happiness. Love -at least the kind to which I refer- cannot be charged for and in consuming love you do not exclude others from consuming it. Similar things can be said for being happy. In fact, in being happy you can make other people happy, which is what’s known as a ‘Multiplier effect’.

As an economist, the best advice I can offer in leading your life is to love and be happy.

Heeh, so cute :)

I know this is an overdue apology but well..
I'm sincerely sorry if i've hurt you and caused you pain in the past. Please know that i never meant any of it.
Yes, i was too blind to see how my actions were affecting you and just how selfish i was being.
I guess i can understand why you chose to stop being friends with me. i would have done the same if i were in your shoes.

I'm sorry, really.

daily dosage of MLIA :)

Funny and adorable MLIAs :) totally rofl-worthy!

Today, I met my dad who had been drafted to the army for 15 years, so I barely remember him. How did I meet him? By him turning up at my house in a full out Darth Vader costume going "I am your father." I think we're going to hit it off just fine. MLIA

The other day I saw a girl that I don't like very much. She was wearing a horrible shirt so I casually walked by and said to my friends very loudly "Wow nice shirt." I then looked over at her and she started laughing. I didn't understand this until I looked down and saw I was wearing the exact same shirt. MLIA.

Just now my 9 year old brother who I had just sent to bed came downstairs with teary eyes saying a monster was roaring outside. I told him it was only the top secret government dinosaurs having a race, he nodded very seriously and went back to bed. His MLIA

Today, I got a compliment on my make up from an elderly woman. She was so adorable I didn't have the heart to tell her that I wasn't wearing any. MLIA

A few days ago I was in a clothing store and I bumped into someone very hard and we both fell to the ground. When we had both gotten to our feet I apologized to him. It took me twenty seconds to realized I had just walked into a mirror. MLIA.

The last one's hilarious! :D

Found this! hahaha, I hate having a round face ;)

and i can't access google US. Whyy):
