[Corrinne May - Little Superhero Girl]

I'm in dire need to remind myself on managing
my own savings carefully.. have been spending
without much self control lately..

celebrating my own birthday become such a
good excuse to buy something for myself.. but
the point is.. it's almost freaking 2 months since
my birthday was over.. hehe.. guilt-stricken..

wasn't really aware how bad my splurging was..
until the panic button was pressed on.. none
other than my credit limit.. I'm the type who
uses credit card like a debit card.. pay up all the
bills whenever the transaction is recorded in..
till now.. this is the very first time I burst my
credit limit.. the thought of it.. quite scary.. was
hit straight back to earth.. hit hard on my head..

to realise that.. my targets that I set.. I'm not
adhering to what I've set for myself.. loses my
concentration.. my self discipline..

luckily.. before everything goes out of control..

well.. did something that shocked someone
yesterday.. it has been (let me think..) about
8 years since I got to know Jasmine a.k.a Er
Shi Xiong, my blog Shi Fu.. one who always
gives me ugly nick.. the one who gang up with
huggies to encourage me to spend money.. =p
the "a.k.a" is a bit long.. but I already tried to
summarized.. back to the topic.. through mIRC,
then to ICQ.. now through MSN and our own
weblogs.. didn't get to meet up with her.. most
of the time because of timing not right.. or me
being lazy.. haha.. I must admit to that..

was browsing through the web to search for
four leaves clover accessories.. buying one as a
birthday present for one of my colleague.. was
asking her for opinions.. end up choosing one
that she like.. but out of stock.. haa..

fast forward.. went Raffles Place.. as there is
a roadshow for these accessories.. but they only
had the white gold versions there.. make my
way down to their shop at Concourse.. while
choosing the design for my colleague.. chance
upon the design Jas had mentioned earlier..
since already there.. been friend for so long liao..
ought to get her something ba.. see! I so good..

sms her to see if she is free to collect it from me
after her work.. was contemplating of a location
to meet.. until both compromise to meet at
Aljunied.. deliver present also troublesome sia..
haha.. although the meeting was rather brief..
but okay lah.. because I'm in a rush to get home
to collect a parcel also..

choosing gifts for people is often a headache.. but
at least, this time.. this small gift set a smile on
someone's face.. even though it's a piggy smile..
just as good.. hahaha.. =p

must have regret collecting the present from me
right?? making a nuisance of you for 5 paragraphs
liao loh.. hahaha.. okay lah.. don't be mean to you..
I better "keep hand".. haha..

been feeling like a Santa Claus lately.. buying lots
of stuffs.. giving lots of stuffs.. never thought of
getting anything back in return.. just the smile
from the receiver.. it just feels good to brighten up
someone's day.. even though it's a small gesture..
that makes me a samaritan?? hmm.. hahaha..

I'm just too evil to become one.. =p

for some things.. money can't buy..
(not that slapstick Mastercard commercial..)
the returns are actually very much invaluable..

on the other hand.. I finally got to know why Santa
Claus like to laugh in the manner no other people
normally do..

"Hole..! Hole..! Hole..!"

did a little advance planning for December on what
to come.. guess I would be doing a lot of the Santa's
laughter when the bills come.. Hole..! Hole..! Hole..!

TaKe CaRE!!
